TRT: Thermal Relaxation Time

What is TRT? Thermal Relaxation Time (TRT) is an important concept in laser treatments that ensures both safety and effectiveness. It refers to the time it takes for a target in the skin—such as a hair follicle, blood vessel, or pigment spot—to cool down to half of the heat absorbed from a laser. For optimal […]

NeoVive and it’s Role in Medical Innovation

The fractional CO2 laser device delivers powerful skin rejuvenation by creating tiny, controlled injuries in the skin, called microthermal zones. These microinjuries vaporize small columns of tissue, removing damaged skin and stimulating collagen production. Unlike lasers that primarily heat the skin, such as thulium lasers, the fractional CO2 laser actively removes small amounts of tissue, […]

What is Hair? Hair growth is a biological process in which hair follicles produce new hair fibers. It’s not continuous; instead, it occurs in cycles, with each hair follicle independently cycling through growth and rest phases. Understanding these phases helps explain why hair length, density, and shedding vary over time. There are three main phases […]

What are Tattoos? Tattoos are created by depositing ink into the dermis, the second layer of the skin located beneath the outer epidermis. Unlike the epidermis, which constantly sheds and renews itself, the dermis is more stable, allowing the ink to remain in place permanently. Tattoo needles puncture the skin repeatedly to deliver pigment into […]

Skin: What’s Under the Hood?

Layers of the Skin The skin, our body’s largest organ, is made up of three main layers, each with a unique role in protecting and supporting our health. The epidermis is the outermost layer, acting as a barrier against germs, chemicals, and environmental damage. It’s where new skin cells are produced and contains melanin, the […]

What Does LIOB Mean and Why is it Important?

Why is LIOB Important? LIOB is important in aesthetic lasers because it allows practitioners to create controlled micro-injuries beneath the skin while keeping the outer layer intact. This stimulates natural collagen remodeling, skin tightening, and rejuvenation with minimal downtime. By working at a microscopic, highly targeted level, LIOB enables powerful results with exceptional safety, making […]

SlimVive vs. FlexVive: What’s the Difference?

The FlexVive is an electromagnetic muscle stimulation (EMS) body contouring system that is designed to build muscle and reduce fat using powerful electromagnetic pulses. During a 30-minute session, the device triggers up to 50,000 muscle contractions – mimicking high-intensity exercise without physical effort. It can target multiple areas such as the abdomen, buttocks, arms, thighs, […]
