IPL PHOTOFACIAL 

IPL photo-rejuvenation treatment is a nonsurgical med spa procedure for reducing the sings of aging and other aberrations. It helps in restoring the skin to a smoother and youthful looking appearance. The procedure has attained popularity since it does not involve incisions and cuts. It also doesn’t involve other typical risks associated with a surgery. Your treatment provider will discuss costs associated with the treatment during the initial consultation. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by board certified physician Dr. Bijan Farah, provides IPL Photofacial Broadband Light (BBL) skin care treatments to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding communities.

IPL Photofacial Cost as Compared to Other Procedures

Minimally invasive or basic noninvasive procedures may be used for rejuvenating skin in the facial area. These procedures involve chemical peels and microdermabrasion among others. They may cost less as compared to IPL treatment. However, they don’t offer the same longevity of results. This makes IPL Photofacial treatments more cost effective. Results tend to be more aesthetically appealing and uniform as well. Skin rejuvenation or laser skin tightening procedures tend to cost relatively more than IPL treatment. Surgical and other advanced procedures are significantly more costly as compared to med spa IPL treatments. IPL Photofacial therapy is much more cost effective as compared to a cosmetic surgery. There is no need to pay for general anesthesia costs, plastic surgeon fee and cost of surgical facility. Nonsurgical IPL treatment can do away with all these major cost components. You should know that there are certain med spa treatments that may be less expensive as compared to IPL treatments. However, they won’t offer the same level of results.

Why Do Costs Vary?

There are multiple techniques and technologies that can be used for performing IPL Photofacial skin care treatment. The depth of your skin and imperfections that need treatment will determine the choice of device. Acne reduction and other treatments may prove to be costlier because of multiple treatment sessions involved. Sessions and number of treatment areas will also determine the estimates costs. Patients requiring only 3 to 4 sessions for pigment reduction will need to pay less as compared to patients that require more sessions. The geographic location of the practice will also affect the IPL Photofacial treatment cost. Real estate and operating costs of a practice is more if it is located in a main urban center or metropolitan city as compared to practices located in smaller interior towns. Other factors, such as quality standards, individualized care, safety protocols and the use of latest technology also determine the overall costs of treatment. You should seek cost-related information openly during the initial consultation. This will help you make a well-informed decision.

Financing Options

Patients should ask for details regarding alternative financing options. The treatment provider will offer information about available payment options ahead of the procedure. Most patients can receive financing from medical care firms at reasonable interest rates and easy monthly installments.

Eyelashes Growth

Eyelashes are not just a cosmetic element in your face, but they have a vital role to play apart from the eye aesthetics. Eyelashes protect your eyes from harmful debris that may cause infection, injury, or obstruction of view. Eyelashes tend to grow and fall out in a natural cycle. They replace themselves every six to ten weeks in a manner similar to hair growing on top of your head. While it’s normal to lose anywhere from one to five eyelashes a day, few people experience rapid lash loss or madarosis. This can be a symptom of some underlying problem in the body or eye. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, provides Latisse eyelash growth treatment to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations.

What Causes Localized Eyelash Loss?

Eyelash loss can be an indicator of something serious if you are not losing hair from your scalp or eyebrows. Localized eyelash loss may be due to:

• Cosmetic irritants: Your lashes can be harmed by periodic use of eye makeup, lash extensions, or heated/non-heated eyelash curlers. These irritants can speed up shedding. Eyelash loss can occur from allergens in extension glue and mascara as well.
• Blepharitis: This condition involves burning oritchiness accompanied by swelling and redness of the eyelids. It can cause eyelash loss as well. Blepharitis occurs when oil glands at the base of eyelashes get clogged causing chronic inflammation.
• Trichotillomania: Psychological distress or emotional stress can cause a person to pluck at their eyelashes habitually.
• Skin cancer: Skin cancer on the eyelid can result to a rare form of eyelash loss. Cancer cells may interrupt the growth of eyelashes causing thinning.

Ocular rosacea or mite, chronic, or recurrent styes and chalazia, and bacterial or fungal infections are other less common causes of eyelash loss.

Hair Loss Accompanied by Eyelash Loss

You may be suffering from a systemic health problem or condition if hair is falling from the scalp and eyebrows along with eyelids. Common causes of such hair loss and eyelash loss are:

• Alopecia: This is an auto-immune condition in which the body starts to attack hair follicles on the body, face, and head.
• Thyroid Disorder: Both hypothyroidism (depleted hormones) and hyperthyroidism (overload of hormones) can result in hair loss, including eyelash loss.

Latisse Is FDA Approved For Falling Eyelashes

Latisse is a recommended treatment by most medical spas in the US for thinning eyelashes. The product is approved by the FDA to treat hypotrichosis in the eyelid. Prostaglandin analogue is one of the active ingredients in Latisse which helps in stimulating hair follicles to make them push new growth faster. Latisse treatment is generally recommended by med spa providers for people that want longer, thicker, or darker eyelashes. Several people have already benefited from this non-invasive topical treatment. It’s vital to note that Latisse is a prescription product and should only be used after consultation with a well-known medical spa expert. Rejuvenate Medical Spa receives patients from Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and nearby areas for Latisse eyelash growth treatment.

Latisse Eye Lash Growth Before And After Photos

Latisse is a prescription product approved by the FDA that is used for growing eyelashes. Some experienced med spa providers promote the product for off-label use in improving the growth of eyebrows as well. It is recommended that you ask for before and after photographs when you visit a qualified medical spa for your Latisse treatment. This will help in assessing whether the treatment is effective and meets your expectations or not. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, provides Latisse eyelash growth treatment to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding communities.

Process of Taking Before and After Pictures of Latisse Eyelashes

The med spa expert will take photos of untreated eyelashes when a patient decides to commence with Latisse treatment. These pictures will be taken at the beginning of the treatment only after obtaining the patient’s consent. In addition, pictures and identity of patients is required to be kept undisclosed. Photos are usually taken at the end of the treatment. But sometimes the photographs can be taken during the treatment as well as at various different stages. These Latisse photographs are only meant to be used as a visual tool for educating patients. Most medical spas offering Latisse eyelash treatment will show their collection of before and after photos during the initial consultation. If not, you can always ask the spa to show these pictures which you are going to have to now because Latisse before and after images are not available on the site. This does not mean they cannot be uploaded at any time though. Few med spas post these pictures on social media platforms as well, such as Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest.

Importance of Latisse Before and After Pictures

It can be difficult to visualize the treatment and the extent or type of improvements by just hearing it from the Latisse med spa expert. Sometimes, looking at photos can make it easier to understand the full impact. Photos may also correct your expectations if you had them at unrealistically high levels. Make sure you observe the exact extent of changes and the type of eyelash growth while looking at Latisse before and after pictures. This will help you attain a fair understanding of the product and whether it is something you want or not. Latisse is FDA approved to be used for eyelash growth. However, it works differently on different patients. You can have your concerns regarding efficacy and safety addressed accurately by looking at before and after photos. These images can also make it easier for you to make a decision and even more so because digital images are widespread now and that type of clarity was not available decades ago. Digital technology has changed the world and enable anyone to make more salient decisions. Now in terms of plastic surgery, patients can almost predict the future and easily imagine how a particular surgery will look on them because of digital images. Latisse is an affordable treatment when paid for monthly. However, you still need to make sure the treatment provides the kind of enhancements you are looking for. Patients usually find Latisse treatment to be very beneficial. You can attain greater confidence in the treatment plan when you see visible results for yourself. Latisse treatment takes effect gradually. It can be easy to lose focus and waver in consistency or stop the treatment altogether. Looking at photos that were taken during the treatment will provide you with a benchmark to assess the improvements made in your eyelashes. Rejuvenate Medical Spa receives patients from Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and nearby areas for Latisse eyelash growth treatment.

Latisse Eye Lash Growth

Latisse eyelash grower is an FDA approved product that is designed to help people with thinning or insufficient eyelashes get thicker, longer, and darker eyelashes. It’s vital that patients seek Latisse med spa treatment from experienced and qualified providers only. Your treatment provider, during the initial consultation, will assess whether you are a suitable candidate for the product or not. They will explain how the Latisse treatment works, how to apply the product at home, timeframes involved, and costs associated with the treatment. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, provides Latisse eyelash growth treatment to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding locations.

Latisse Treatment is Affordable

Most patients find that the treatment is fairly affordable. Your Latisse monthly kit will include 30 pairs of applicators and a bottle of the medication. The treatment involves applying the solution daily to your eyelashes, which means a single kit will last you about a month. It’s vital that you never reuse an applicator and discard each one after use. You may need to follow the Latisse med spa treatment for about four months for optimal results. In short, you may need a minimum of four monthly Latisse eyelash grower kits for best results. Most med spa providers don’t recommend leaving a treatment in between if you don’t want the effects to wane. You should be prepared to use the treatment for an extended period under the supervision of a qualified and experienced medical spa expert if you are looking to enjoy extended Latisse benefits. Make sure you plan the treatment according to your monthly budget. Sometimes, med spa providers offer rebates to patients that purchase several Latisse kits for the duration of their treatment in one transaction. You may also be able to qualify for special packages if you are getting other treatments at the same med spa. It doesn’t hurt to ask the provider about discounts and special offers. It’s crucial that you don’t cut corners on costs by buying Latisse kits from unqualified or unreliable sources.

Factors Involved in Cost of Latisse Treatment

Latisse treatment costs may vary marginally depending on the following factors:

Location

Practices in prime urban locations and major metropolitan areas tend to have a higher cost. This is because the cost of living is higher in these cities, which ultimately affects the prices of other goods and services, including healthcare and cosmetic treatments.

Facility Standards

Costs tend to vary marginally between medical spas that offer low standards of quality and care and those that offer personalized care and service in a state-of-the-art treatment environment.

Duration of Treatment

The overall monetary amount for the treatment will also depend on how long your treatment lasts. Extended treatments mean more monthly kits. You can always pay for the Latisse kits on a monthly basis to make it more affordable and convenient.

Latisse Eye Lash Growth

Your eyes play an important role in how you look. The thickness, fullness, and length of the eyelashes add to the overall appeal and attractiveness. Thinning or total loss of eyelashes can make a huge difference on your facial appearance. Latisse med spa treatment works towards enhancing eyelashes to make them significantly thicker, stronger, and fuller. Rejuvenate Medical Spa, led by Dr. Bijan Farah, provides Latisse eyelash growth treatment to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and surrounding communities.

An Overview of Latisse

Latisse is a prescription product containing 0.03% bimatoprost. It is the first product to be FDA approved for promoting eyelash growth. Latisse is uniquely formulated for enhancing the growth and natural look of eyelashes. However, results are gradual to come. You will see the first signs of improvements after a month of med spa. Optimum growth will take anywhere from 15 – 16 weeks. Few providers use Latisse for the growth of eyebrows as well as lashes.

How Does It Work?

Latisse medical spa treatment shows improvements gradually because it works from the inside out. It is important to understand that you may have to wait a few weeks for the results to show. The product needs to be applied dedicatedly every night. The amount applied should be according to the med spa expert’s instructions. Make sure you use the special brush that comes with the product. Most patients notice a steady progress of thicker, longer, and darker colored eyelashes within a few months. Initial results usually show up within the first four weeks. However, consistency is vital if you want to achieve the desired results quickly. Eyelash growth may stop if you miss your daily routine or stop applying the solution altogether. For full effects, you need to apply the solution for at least four months consistently.

Applying Latisse Solution

Following steps are recommended by medical spa experts while applying Latisse for complete benefits:

1. Clean your face of any makeup. If you wear contact lenses, remove them.
2. Place one drop of Latisse solution on the sterile applicator that came with the product. Make sure you hold it in a horizontal position.
3. Carefully, but quickly draw the sterile applicator on your eyelid, along the margin of the eyelashes. Make sure the applicator comes in contact with the skin and not just lashes.
4. Use a tissue to blot away any excess solution on the eyelid.

How Safe Is Latisse Treatment?

Eyes are delicate and any concern you feel is only natural. Latisse is an FDA approved product which indicates it meets rigorous evaluation standards after sufficient clinical testing. Various medical spa providers, over the years, have used Latisse on thousands of patients to thicken and rejuvenate eyelashes. It is important that you work with an experienced med spa provider for your treatment and follow their directions fully for best results. Rejuvenate Medical Spa receives patients from Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Los Angeles, CA, and nearby areas for Latisse eyelash growth treatment.
