    Cool Helium Plasma (J Plasma) Skin Resurfacing Treatment by Bovie

    Posted on September 2, 2018 by Rejuvenate Medical Spa
    J-Plasma is a state of the art energy device which combines the unique attributes of cold helium plasma and radio frequency (RF) energy to rejuvenate skin tissue in a med spa setting. Helium plasma helps focus RF energy for better control of tissue effect. This offers targeted treatment which effectively eliminates the possibility of damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by the successful Dr. Bijan Farah, provides Cool Helium Plasma skin resurfacing treatment to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations across the landscape.

    J-Plasma Advantages

    J-Plasma poses a low risk of trauma to the surrounding tissue due to the following reasons:
    • Reduced lateral and depth of energy spread
    • The length of the plasma stream is controllable precisely at the micron level
    • Decreased smoke, odor, and eschar
    • No possibility of conductive currents through the patient
    • The treatment is effective on various types of tissues

    J-Plasma Procedure

    Plasma can be developed by adding energy to a gas similar to the manner in which a liquid can be excited into a gaseous state. J-Plasma utilizes helium gas which goes through an energized electrode, to produce a focused low-current cold plasma stream. This process can be extended as well for an improved cutting effect. J-Plasma offer targeted delivery and minimal thermal spread. This enhances surgical as well as non-surgical med spa treatment in a wide array of specialties and procedures. J-Plasma has been proven to be safe and predictable in multiple ablative skin resurfacing treatments. In such treatments, targeted energy delivery and minimal thermal spread to the surrounding tissues is crucial for controlled tissue ablation.

    Scar Revision with J-Plasma

    J-Plasma enables the controlled and delicate elimination of keloids and scars. It allows the lesion to blend almost seamlessly into the normal surrounding tissue. The advantages of scar revision with J-Plasma include:
    • A decrease in the size of the scar
    • Normal hue and smoothness restoration in the surrounding tissue
    • Proven to offer a decreased hyperpigmentation risk

    Use of Helium Gas

    Helium is the lightest of the stable, noble gases. Therefore, it can be ionized at very low energy. This offers a single modality that is capable of cutting, coagulating and ablating with remarkable flexibility. Helium plasma has a unique ability to adapt itself to the broad requirements of various surgical procedures ranging from debulking of disease on and around vital structures to cutting and lysis of thick tissue. Significantly, J-Plasma is the only device that can achieve this.

    Outcomes

    J-Plasma’s skin rejuvenation effects are noticeable immediately. The skin underneath the outermost layer is visibly smoother. The skin undergoes a dramatic transformation with the elimination of aberrations such as fine lines and wrinkles achieving a luminescent glow. J-Plasma is also effective on other imperfections of the face such as irregular pigmentation, acne scars, sun spots, melasma, as well as age spots.

    J-Plasma Enrollment in Clinical Study

    Bovie Medical Corporation, the developer of J-Plasma, has announced that it has engaged the first patient in an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) clinical study in the US. The study should help establish J-Plasma as a widely accepted skin rejuvenation treatment. Judicious Rejuvenate Medical Spa receives patients from Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and other suburbs and neighborhoods in this region of The Golden State for Cool Helium Plasma skin resurfacing.   See all Medical Spa Non-Surgical Procedures Dr. Bijan Farah performs on patients in Los Angeles, Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Tazana, Woodland Hills, CA, and surrounding communities. Schedule a consultation now.

The judicious Dr. Farah and his staff will individualize the PRP treatment for each patient to ensure that the hair restoration procedure is safe and effective while offering patients the full and healthy hair that they seek. What is PRP for Hair Restoration? PRP (platelet rich plasma) treatment for hair restoration is a unique therapy for enhancing the potency and effectiveness of hair growth procedures. If this treatment is used in combination with laser hair restoration, it can trigger the hair follicles for stronger and healthier hair growth. PRP hair restoration treatment usually involves these steps:
    • The provider draws a small sample of the patient’s blood and processes it in a centrifuge to separate the PRP and activate the strong growth factors that the PRP contains.
    • The patient receives a local anesthetic in the target site to numb that region of the scalp.
    • Subsequently, the provider will inject the PRP in the targeted site focusing mainly on the regions experiencing the most severe loss of hair. The provider uses a fine gauge needle to administer these injections in a matrix pattern across the scalp to enhance the restorative effect of the PRP.
    • The PRP recovery process is typically comfortable, and the patient can take OTC pain meds such as ibuprofen to address mild discomfort.
    PRP in Combination with Laser Hair Restoration by Dr. Farah PRP is an effective way to enhance the efficacy of laser hair restoration without adding to the treatment duration or recovery time substantially. PRP in combination with a laser hair restoration treatment has proven very successful on the whole scalp or a localized area such as the eyebrows or beard.

    Posted on August 14, 2018 by Rejuvenate Medical Spa
    The muscles and tissue of the vaginal canal can often be affected by various factors such as pregnancy, aging effects, and natural childbirth. In case a woman is displeased with her vaginal appearance because of lax tissue, she may seek vaginal rejuvenation to recreate the vagina’s pre-pregnancy appearance and feel. A med spa vaginal tightening procedure offers women a non-surgical option to revitalize their vagina without undergoing plastic surgery such as vaginoplasty. The ThermiVa treatment for vaginal tightening uses an innovative technology that offers the patient the opportunity to restore the appearance and feel of the vagina to its pre-pregnancy state in a non-invasive way. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by the committed and kind Dr. Bijan Farah, provides ThermiVa vaginal tightening treatment to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and other cities and suburbs in this region of SoCal.

    Vaginal Rejuvenation Tightening – Los Angeles Med Spa

    Posted on August 5, 2018 by Rejuvenate Medical Spa
    A woman may experience changes in her sexual aesthetics as well as develop vaginal laxity due to reasons such as childbirth, aging, hormonal changes. For some women, this could cause a decrease in erotic sensation and tone loss in the labia majora. While vaginoplasty and labiaplasty plastic surgeries are available to correct these conditions, many women want to consider non-invasive med spa procedures for vaginal rejuvenation. In such cases, effective and safe non-surgical cosmetic procedures can help accomplish vaginal rejuvenation. Radiofrequency (RF) energy based and laser techniques can help encourage the production of collagen in the area and dermal filler injectables can enhance volume and G-spot sensation. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, provides vaginal rejuvenation to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations. RF and Laser Treatments RF and laser systems can correct vulvar sagginess and vaginal laxity in a non-invasive way. This procedure does not involve cosmetic surgery and delivers targeted and gentle RF energy or laser pulses directly to the treatment sites in the vulvovaginal region. The energy will produce controlled heat in the treated layers of tissue which will provide tautness to the internal vaginal laxity and external labia. The treated tissue will constrict into a tighter bundle. These heat-based treatments promote the production of new collagen for more sustainable and natural looking outcomes and may also be effective in nerve and tissue healing. The RF or laser based med spa procedure can tighten the vagina both at the opening and across its entire length. The patient, as well as her partner, will experience a substantial difference. The tissue of the labia is made tighter, and the sagginess decreases significantly. This will help the patient achieve smoother and softer skin in this area. After the treatment, the patient can freely wear tighter clothing without feeling conscious about her appearance. Dermal Filler Injectable Treatment A simple, in-office dermal filler injectable procedure can offer enhanced volume in the labia majora. Women who are unhappy about atrophy and loss of volume in the labia majora (at times in the mons pubis as well) can attain desirable outcomes with this dermal filler injectable treatment that has received approval from the FDA. This injectable procedure can effectively offer volume enhancement using safe and proven dermal fillers. The level of vaginal laxity and personal preferences of the patient will help the surgeon determine the most suitable dermal filler for her. In a majority of cases, HA-based fillers are selected as these are completely biocompatible, and the patient does not need to undergo any allergy testing prior to the treatment. Dermal filler injectables can also help accomplish G-spot enhancement. Dr. Hustak will determine the location of the G-spot in consultation with the patient during the physical examination. The G-spot is typically located around one to three inches within the vagina, just past its opening. A tampon will be inserted into the vagina after the injection to absorb the drainage.

    Reduce Facial Aging Like Crow’s Feet with Renuvion (J-Plasma)

    Posted on July 10, 2018 by Rejuvenate Medical Spa
    Reduce Facial Aging Like Crow’s FeetRenuvion (J-Plasma) is a minimally invasive med spa treatment that offers an alternative to facelift and various other skin tightening procedures for the face, body, chin, and neck. Renuvion (J-Plasma) enables the outer layer of the skin to gently peel away. This gives the treated area new layer of fresh, tauter, and more youthful skin. Patients who are bothered by the appearance of crow’s feet around the eyes can benefit from this innovative treatment. The full procedure is performed under local anesthetic. This makes Renuvion (J-Plasma) a safe and more predictable treatment. It is an excellent option for people seeking to reduce the appearance of crow’s feet and revitalize their face without surgery or those who have previously undergone facial surgery and now want to enhance fine lines and age spots on the surface of the skin. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, provides Renuvion (J-Plasma) for crow’s feet removal to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding communities.

    Renuvion (J-Plasma) Advantages

    Non-Surgical As Renuvion (J-Plasma) is a non-surgical procedure, it does not create the complications and discomfort that are often associated with surgical procedures. It does not leave scars, other than if it is performed sub-dermally. Even in case of a subdermal procedure, the incision scars are minimal. Significant Outcomes The before-and-after pictures showcase dramatic improvements. J-Plasma offers excellent improvements and eliminates facial aging signs such as crow’s feet despite being a non-surgical treatment. Short Procedure At times, Renuvion (J-Plasma) is promoted as “the one hour facelift.” But the med spa procedure typically takes not more than 45 minutes. One Treatment Only Renuvion (J-Plasma) usually requires a single session to achieve full desired results. This distinguishes it from many other competing non-surgical procedures. But some people may have to undergo more than one skin resurfacing sessions.

    Renuvion (J-Plasma) Procedure

    Although Renuvion (J-Plasma) is a skin resurfacing treatment, it delivers the ionized energy in the uppermost layer of the skin. This makes the skin peel revealing a fresh, new layer of skin, and the new layer is actually more youthful, offering a tauter and brighter appearance. Renuvion (J-Plasma) decreases the skin's discoloration, enhances texture, shrinks pores, mitigates deep and fine lines, and tightens loose skin. If used subdermally (beneath the skin), the Renuvion (J-Plasma) is a powerful tightening procedure. Helium gas, along with electrical energy, is applied (akin to a precise airbrush), enabling for extremely controlled “cool plasma” delivery. This element offers the skin treatment from the outside (leading to skin peeling and contracting), or if applied beneath the skin, it purely tightens. The entire procedure does not involve any significant discomfort and is carried out under local anesthesia. In addition to numbing the treatment area, oral meds and other solutions may be used to reduce the patient's discomfort. Usually, the full area is treated with J Plasma, and then the provider will use an extra pass to enhance further skin tightening.

    Efficient In-Office Procedure

    Renuvion (J-Plasma) is performed comfortably and safely as an in-office treatment. The procedure usually lasts for between 30 and 45 minutes. Renuvion (J-Plasma) usually involves minimal pain and effectively improves the appearance of aging signs such as crow’s feet around the eyes. Rejuvenate Medical Spa receives patients from Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and nearby areas for Renuvion (J-Plasma) crow’s feet treatment.

    Reduce Facial Aging Like Sunspots with Renuvion (J-Plasma)

    Posted on July 5, 2018 by Rejuvenate Medical Spa
    Reduce Facial Aging Like SunspotsThe goal of facial rejuvenation med spa treatments is to make an individual appear more youthful. Their aim is to mitigate lines, wrinkles, age spots, sun damage, sleeplessness, and stress. The key issue is to understand which facial rejuvenation treatment is more effective and suitable. Facial rejuvenation procedures are both invasive as well as non-invasive. They may involve the use of lights, ultrasound, surgical incisions, chemicals, and lasers. Such procedures may take days or weeks for healing. Finally, these procedures can sometimes leave the patient wondering whether they made the correct decision. Patients who are looking for a safe and advanced procedure to reduce facial aging signs such as sunspots, they should consider the cutting edge Renuvion (J-Plasma) treatment. This innovative technology offers dramatic outcomes without surgery and with minimal side-effects. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by the judicious Dr. Bijan Farah, provides Renuvion (J-Plasma) for sunspot reduction to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding communities and suburbs in this area of the country.

    How Renuvion (J-Plasma) Works

    The operating term in Renuvion (J-Plasma) is “plasma.” Here, it does not refer to the clear fluid found in blood or any other kind of bodily fluid. It refers to ionized gas that is a good conductor of electrical pulses. Plasma is known as the “fourth state of matter,” along with solids, liquids, and other gases. The Renuvion (J-Plasma) device begins with helium gas. It uses radio frequency (RF) energy to ionize the gas, which turns helium gas into cold helium plasma. This cold plasma emerges from the device in a stream as the med spa treatment provider applies the device to the skin. The Renuvion (J-Plasma) device may be used sub-dermally or over the skin. If the device is used sub-dermally, it is inserted into the skin using tiny incisions.  The provider will inject the ionized gas under the skin, making the skin tauter instantly. This technique is also frequently used on the body as an alternative to liposuction.

    Renuvion (J-Plasma) Candidates

    Though Renuvion (J-Plasma) may be advised as a non-surgical alternative to a facelift, it can do more than just make the skin tighter or reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The Renuvion (J-Plasma) treatment can address facial aging signs such as sunspots and uneven pigmentation. This element enables this procedure to rival non-invasive rejuvenation procedures for the face such as intense pulsed light (IPL) and laser resurfacing. Renuvion (J-Plasma) treatment providers identify ideal candidates as people with mild to moderate skin imperfections such as sunspots, who seek a dramatic transformation. Patients should note that J-Plasma is not always advisable as a spot treatment. It is best for use on the entire face and neck area. However, some people do occasionally seek J-Plasma spot procedures for particular concerns.

    Outcomes

    The skin rejuvenation effects of a Renuvion (J-Plasma) treatment are noticeable immediately. The skin underneath the eliminated top layer is visibly smoother. The skin gets rid of imperfections such as sunspots and acquires a radiance which contributes to its smooth and glowing appearance. It could take a few months for the full effects of the procedure to become visible and the associated redness to subside completely. Rejuvenate Medical Spa receives patients from Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and other cities and towns in this part of the southwest for Renuvion (J-Plasma) sunspot treatment.

    CoolSculpting vs. SculpSure

    Posted on June 15, 2018 by Rejuvenate Medical Spa
    CoolSculpting vs. SculpSureCoolSculpting has been popular body contouring and fat reduction medspa procedure for several years. SculpSure is another innovative non-surgical treatment that is slightly different from CoolSculpting. Both procedures have specific advantages and limitations. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, provides body contouring treatments to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations across the horizon.

    CoolSculpting vs. SculpSure: Safety

    Excellent cosmetic outcomes should not come at the price tag of safety. SculpSure and CoolSculpting have both been proven to be safe med spa procedures. These procedures are FDA-cleared for their efficacy and stellar outcomes.

    CoolSculpting vs. SculpSure: Results

    CoolSculpting can remove up to 22 percent fat in the treatment sites in a period of a few weeks to few months after a single session. SculpSure can remove up to 24 percent fat on the treatment site in a period of a few weeks to few months after a single session. But outcomes from both procedures can vary between individuals, and just a two percent differential is hardly noticeable. Therefore, these numbers should not be a deciding factor between these treatments.

    CoolSculpting vs. SculpSure: Comfort

    SculpSure is a comfortable treatment which does not involve numbing of the skin tissue. This is due to the precise and targeted treatment that the laser device allows. Similar to hair removal lasers that target the hair follicle without harming the surrounding skin, the SculpSure laser precisely targets only fat cells. This treatment offers protection to the skin against any ambient heat via a smart cooling cycle. The SculpSure is also adjustable to a specific patient’s level of comfort. If a particular area feels too warm, the specific laser panel can be turned down. This will help attain a comfortable treatment. CoolSculpting works by way of damaging fat cells with cold temperature. This treatment involves the use of a suction-based handpiece. Similar to the numbing felt after icing, certain patients may feel numbing during the treatment as well as immediately after the procedure. On occasion, patients describe this numbing as mild discomfort. The new CoolSculpting CoolAdvantage system enables this procedure to be more comfortable with lesser reports of long-lasting numbness and tingling.

    CoolSculpting vs. SculpSure: Time Commitment

    CoolSculpting utilizes a treatment handpiece that enables one site to be treated at a time. Every treatment cycle lasts from 35 minutes to one hour dependent on the type of handpiece used (the use of a specific handpiece depends on the treatment site and the patient’s unique anatomy). SculpSure utilizes up to four laser treatments in a 25-minute sitting. If the patient’s desired areas of treatment are on opposite sides of their body, but they are small enough in terms of total area to be covered by two treatment panels, then both these areas can receive treatment simultaneously.

    CoolSculpting vs. SculpSure: Limiting Factors

    Of course, both these treatments may not be suitable for certain patients. CoolSculpting warrants that the patient has “pinchable” fat (this implies that the skin should be loose enough in the fatty region to enable to the device to work efficiently). While this is the case for a majority of people, it may not be true for some individuals. The guideline for a CoolSculpting procedure is that the patient should have a minimum of one inch of fat for the treatment to work. SculpSure can help patients with smaller fat deposits, even if they do not have loose skin. Both these treatments are not recommended for pregnant or nursing women. Rejuvenate Medical Spa receives patients from Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and other communities and suburbs in this section of The Golden State for body contouring treatments.

    Get Your Body Bikini Ready With Coolsculpting Body Contouring – Freeze the Fat Off!

    Posted on June 10, 2018 by Rejuvenate Medical Spa
    Get Your Body Bikini Ready With Coolsculpting Body Contouring - Freeze the Fat Off!In summers, bikini season is in full bloom. But many women feel displeased with their body's shape as well as the appearance of unattractive pockets of fat. They may not be able to enjoy the summer season in a bikini as much as they desire to. Rejuvenate Med Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, offers innovative treatment such as CoolSculpting to decrease fat and assist women in making their bodies bikini-ready. CoolSculpting is an entirely non-surgical procedure for fat reduction. Patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations have an opportunity to receive CoolSculpting at Rejuvenate Medical Spa.

    Shapely Body with CoolSculpting

    CoolSculpting is an FDA-approved procedure involving an innovative cooling process by Harvard scientists to freeze away the fat cells. The procedure works on the premise that fat cells react faster to cold temperatures and get eliminated through freezing, while the surrounding normal tissue remains intact. After the patient decides on the procedure, the provider will place the CoolSculpting device in the areas of treatment on the body and use controlled cooling. The patient stays entirely comfortable during the treatment and can resume their normal routine right after the session. Outcomes with CoolSculpting are visible and long-lasting. The fat cells killed through this procedure are eliminated for good. This enables the woman to enjoy a more sculpted figure that is completely bikini-ready freely.

    Treatment Areas

    Men and women can both find the CoolSculpting technique advantageous. This treatment can enable fat loss in precise areas such as the lower abdomen, upper arms, lower back, inner thighs, and bra roll. Now CoolSculpting offers the CoolMini technique. This new technique can help address stubborn pockets of fat in areas that are hard to access such as beneath the chin.

    Treatment Sessions

    A person, on an average, may need between 2 and 6 treatment sittings of CoolSculpting to attain their fat reduction objectives. Every sitting will be spaced apart a few weeks. The average treatment time for a single session is around 40 minutes when the latest CoolSculpting equipment is used. A person requiring a more significant volume of fat cell reduction or having a higher fatty tissue density will typically need more sittings to attain their fat reduction objectives.

    Developing Expectations

    A patient who has realistic expectations will likely appreciate the outcomes of CoolSculpting better and feel more satisfied with their new figure. Patients who are overweight may not achieve significant enhancement or may require more treatment sittings to attain their fat reduction goals. But patients should understand that CoolSculpting is not a procedure meant for weight loss. It is a body contouring treatment. CoolSculpting can enable women to reduce their waist circumference and make their bodies bikini-ready to enjoy the summer. Rejuvenate Medical Spa provides CoolSculpting to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and other suburbs and cities in this area of The Golden State.

    Reduce Facial Aging Like Smile Lines

    Conspicuous signs of facial aging such as smile lines can be improved with a range of proven med spa procedures.Reduce Facial Aging Like Smile Lines Rejuvenate Medical Spa traditionally uses a combination of Botox, dermal fillers, lasers and threads to address facial aging signs such as sunspots, “smoker lines,” smile lines, and crow’s feet. These traditional treatments have been successfully used for years, but now Rejuvenate also provides the innovative Renuvion cosmetic technology for reduction of smile lines, powered by J plasma treatment system. Led by Dr. Bijan Farah, Rejuvenate Medical Spa provides J Plasma facial anti-aging technique to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding communities across the landscape.

    Advantages of J Plasma

    As per Dr. Bijan Farah, J Plasma is similar to pushing a “reset” button on your skin. Surgical procedures such as facelift can lift and “reposition” facial skin. However, there are many limitations of surgery, including risk, discomfort, downtime and cost. Also, a surgical facelift does not resurface the skin. This can leave the patient with the same, damaged and discolored facial skin. On the other hand, J Plasma treatment dramatically contracts the skin and removes years of damage from facial skin in an efficient way. J Plasma for skin resurfacing can significantly improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and irregular pigmentation, which may not be possible with traditional surgical facelifts. Additionally, the same device can smoothen and tighten neck and under eye skin. J Plasma utilizes a gas plasma technology which is superior in comparison to a laser resurfacing. Rejuvenate med spa treatment providers may advise treatments for the full face. But they also undertake spot treatment of the mouth, neck/jowl region, and eyes. J Plasma is a single, once-in-a-lifetime in-office treatment. Dr. Farah and his team perform this procedure in office under only tumescent and oral anesthesia.

    Ideal Candidates

    An ideal candidate for this procedure is any individual who wants to address problematic sites such as:
    • Age Spots
    • Pigmented facial skin
    • Imprinted lines or Wrinkles
    • Acne Scars
    • Sunspots
    • Melasma

    How does J Plasma Work?

    Plasma refers to an energy state generated by adding energy to a gas. J Plasma is an advanced energy device that creates a combination of cold helium plasma and RF energy. The helium plasma centers RF energy for higher control of tissue effect. This leads to a highly targeted procedure that almost eliminates unintended trauma to the tissue. Dr. Farah utilizes a wand to gently “paint” the treatment areas with plasma energy.

    Are there side effects, and what to expect post-treatment?

    Though the treatment is relatively painless, the downtime and recovery process can take around two to three weeks. During the initial few weeks after the procedure, patients may experience minor inflammation, redness, skin peeling, and itching. Recovery at home for a few days is vital to protect the skin and attain ideal outcomes. J Plasma is hyper-focused, which significantly decreases pain, hyperpigmentation, burn scars, and other such standard side-effects associated with laser procedures. A majority of patients describe a pain-free recovery. Rejuvenate Medical Spa receives patients from Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and other neighborhoods and towns in this region of the state for J Plasma for facial smile lines reduction.
