Dr. Berkley Skin and Body Medical Spa, a Studio City, California-based clinic headed by Medical Esthetics expert Linda L. Berkley MD, announced it has acquired a Palomar ICON 1540 non-ablative resurfacing laser that is FDA-approved and which is said to approach the issue of stretch marks in a highly effective way. According to Dr. Berkley Skin and Body representatives, the ICON 1540 offers the promise of greater comfort, both during and after the procedure, and a shorter recovery time, amongst a host of other benefits.
“Few things add to the appearance of age more than wrinkles, particularly on an individual’s face,” says Dr. Berkley. “Various medical techniques have been introduced over the years in an attempt to prevent or reverse the effects of wrinkles and other skin anomalies, often with limited results. More promising results have been achieved, we have found, with the Palomar ICON 1540 resurfacing laser, which has been approved by the FDA for the removal of stretch marks. Dr. Berkley Skin and Body, offering the kind of skin tightening in Los Angeles trusts, is proud to extend this solution to those seeking an improved complexion – nothing has ever worked on stretch marks quite like this.”
The ICON 1540 is known as a “non-ablative laser,” employing the use of high energy to penetrate the skin for the purpose of treating the underlying condition. Because the precision of such a laser is so formidable, the surrounding skin is not affected, rendering the ICON 1540 more powerful than other laser systems and allowing it to penetrate deeply into the skin. Further, its ability to deliver energy in narrow columns produces concentrated effects that, in turn, stimulate the natural healing processes of the body.
“Strictly from the patient’s point-of-view, the ICON 1540 does not require the use of a topical anesthetic and avoids the surface damage associated with other skin resurfacing techniques,” concludes Dr. Berkley. “The initial results should be visible immediately and improve over time, with the final effects lasting longer than most patients could ever imagine. Indeed, the quest for eternal youth is perhaps one step closer to reality with the Palomar ICON 1540laser.”
