The Aesthetic Wellness Center offers laser hair removal treatments for the following areas:
The AWC also offers a number of laser treatments that are perfect for treating the following:
Spider Veins
Remove these unsightly facial veins in just a few office visits. The laser targets the pigment in the veins, leaving you with smooth, sleek skin.
Rosacea
In 3 to 5 treatments, the redness associate with rosacea is easily treated with the laser. This intense, yet gentle laser effectively treats patients with all types of rosacea.
Brown spots
The laser treats the discoloration caused by aging and sun damage. In just a few visits, patients can erase years of sun damage with just a few pulses of the laser.
Sun damaged décolleté (upper chest)
Using a combination of laser therapies, years of sun damage can be removed from the décolleté.
We are also excited to offer the latest, non-invasive laser treatment known as Fraxel®. The Fraxel® Laser is FDA approved for the treatment of acne scars, age spots/brown spots, melasma (mask of pregnancy), and wrinkles around the eyes. It is also effective in treating stretch marks and improving skin texture, tone, and pore size! Visit the “Procedures”section of our website for additional information on the different Fraxel Laser treatment options available.
All patients will need a consultation prior to having any laser treatment. For any additional questions please call our office at 508.366.2020.
The results of laser hair removal are permanent. However, multiple treatments are necessary in order to treat all of the hairs in one area. Most patients average three to four treatments.
Some mild discomfort after undergoing laser surgery.
The Fraxel Laser involves less discomfort that other laser treatments. Nevertheless, patients may experience some discomfort during the first two days after treatment which can be alleviated with ice packs and Tylenol.
The laser targets overactive sebaceous glands in the skin which is the root cause of acne. Long-lasting acne relief can be achieved with just three to four treatments.
Brown spots or discoloration caused by aging and sun damaged can be treated with laser surgery. Just a few office visits and a few pulses of the laser are needed to erase this unwanted discoloration.
A gentle yet intense laser is used to treat rosacea and its associated redness. All types of rosacea can be treated in just three to five treatments.
The laser targets the pigment in unsightly spider veins, thus improving their appearance. Just a few office visits are needed to treat them.
Sun damage of the upper chest or dcollet can be treated with a combination of laser therapies.
For the laser hair removal treatment, Dr. Ahn uses the GentleLase and GentleYag lasers from Candela. These are the safest and most effective lasers available for laser hair removal. This laser is passed over the treatment area where it targets the pigment and permanently disables the follicle. Treatment is quick and convenient. Most patients require a course of treatments averaging three to four sessions.
The Fraxel Laser is specially designed to combine the potency of ablative treatments with the gentle safety of non-ablative lasers. When applied to the treatment area, the laser targets aging and damaged skin by creating microscopic "wounds" which penetrate deep beneath the outermost layer of skin. This triggers the body's natural production of new collagen and skin cells, improving the appearance of aging and damaged skin.

Laser surgery involves the use of laser to treat a variety of conditions. At the Aesthetic Wellness Center, we use the Candela family of lasers to treat spider veins, rosacea, brown spots, acne scarring and sun damage of the upper chest.
The Fraxel Laser is the latest, non-invasive laser treatment for aged and sun damaged skin. At the Aesthetic Wellness Center, we use the new, upgraded 70mj Fraxel Laser which allows for improved results, less discomfort and minimal downtime. The Fraxel Laser can be used to treat acne scars, stretch marks, brown spots, age spots, melasma, and wrinkles around the eyes while also tightening the skin and improving texture, tone and pore size. Commonly treated areas include the face, neck, chest and hands.
There is little downtime or recovery associated with laser hair removal. While some swelling or redness may occur, these fade quickly and most usual activities can be resumed right after treatment.
Patients may experience some redness and swelling of the skin after laser surgery. Discomfort may also occur but is usually mild. Patients will need to protect the treated area from the sun for a period of time.
The new, upgraded 70 mj Fraxel involves less discomfort and almost no downtime as compared to older treatments. The skin will appear red or slightly dark immediately after treatment. It may also be swollen, warm and sensitive. Sleeping on the back with the head elevated can help to resolve swelling. Moisturizer will need to be applied frequently and liberally during the recovery, along with sunscreen. The skin will begin to peel within about three to four days after treatment and will continue to peel for two to three days. Areas like the neck, chest and arms may take longer to peel. Once the skin has fully peeled, it will be smoother and less pigmented with improved tone and tighter pores. Improvement can be seen after a single treatment, though the best results are typically achieved with an average of four treatments.
During the consultation for Fraxel Laser treatment, Dr. Ahn will discuss the available treatment options including the benefits, the expected outcomes and any alternatives. He will address any questions or concerns that you may have and take special care to educate you about the laser treatment so that you can make a well-informed decision. Digital photography and computer imaging may be used to demonstrate the potential results.
