Whether you live here in Miami / South Florida or are just a summer sun worshipper, there is nothing quite as embarrassing as 5 o’clock shadow showing up at 3pm. We Floridians spend the majority of the year in shorts and tank tops, and shaving can be a dreaded daily activity. Whether it is legs, under arm hair, bikini line, back or facial shaving or plucking that has you down, it can be a chore.  And waxing? That is no fun either. Not to mention that lovely stinging sensation when hopping in the ocean after a close shave? OUCH!

What if you never have to shave or wax again? What would you do with all that extra time? How liberating would it be to be able to just walk outside with your favorite shorts on without the worry of unsightly stubble or razor rash?

With light-based permanent hair reduction your days of being a slave to the razor are over. It takes just a few simple treatments to permanently minimize hair growth and free yourself from the hassle of unwanted facial and body hair. At North Beach Vascular & Aesthetics, we use the state of the art Palomar Icon laser device, an FDA approved treatment that targets and destroys hair cells responsible for hair growth without harming the surrounding skin. No matter your skin tone or hair color, including very light and very dark skin, fast and painless laser hair removal treatment is here! Depending on the size of the area, treatment is fast, virtually painless and the results are amazing! The hair can only be affected in an active growth phase and all hair follicles grow at different rates, so several hair removal sessions are recommended for the best results.

Most people feel a slight momentary “snap” at the treatment site during the Palomar Icon laser session and are fine to resume normal activity right after the session. Side effects are mild, with some people experiencing a mild sunburn like sensation, some minor swelling and redness, but it goes away quickly. And the benefits are worth it!

So stop fretting about that upper lip hair or those dark hairs on your arms. Now instead of enduring painful waxing or embarrassment you can have a permanent solution, and cross this off your list of worries! Give us a call to schedule an appointment with North Beach Vascular and Aesthetics today!

Just about everyone can find something they would like to improve about the way they look and often it’s some feature they’d like to get rid of. Many people in Miami South Florida and other high sun areas are affected by some kind of skin condition, either chronic or cosmetic, related to sun exposure. All those fun summer vacations baking in the sun can take their toll as we age in the form of dark pigmentation known as sunspots that appear as brown or dark spots on the face and skin. Although these brown spots can be viewed as a badge of honor and good times past for some, for others the reality is that these conditions can have a serious impact on quality of life, causing self-consciousness, embarrassment, or even depression. It often seems that nothing can make us feel our age more than “age spots”!

North Beach Vascular may have found that elusive Fountain of Youth! What if we told you there was a quick and easy way to reverse those visible signs of aging and sun damage? Depending on your skin tone, we can help you painlessly regain that youthful appearance and feel better when you look in the mirror by minimizing if not removing these dark spots whether they be on your face, nose or elsewhere.

Our amazing Cutera Excel V Laser System uses a high power green laser to target abnormal blood vessels and dark pigmentation in the skin. All those problem areas are essentially removed and your skin can once again be returned to its natural color and tone. This laser treatment and spot removal process is compatible with most patient’s individual skin condition no matter the size, which makes for incredibly precise and effective treatment regardless of how deep the problem area goes. And to make sure each patient is comfortable; Excel V uses an exclusive cooling mechanism that produces continuous cooling before, during and after the laser pulse. You won’t feel a thing!

Everyone deserves a little self care every now and then, especially those of us living that hectic South Florida Miami lifestyle. Some people take some time each day for a bit of meditation, some yoga, maybe even a luxurious massage. All of these practices have their benefits and can rejuvenate and invigorate your mind, body and spirit. And some even have visible benefits as well, removing those noticeable signs of stress and worry from your shoulders and your face. But the ultimate in glowing and restorative health and vibrancy has to be a facial.

Most spa facials follow an exclusive protocol specially designed for you and your skin. They look at whether you have dry, oily or combination skin, your T Zone, pores and pigmentation, and use a combination of products specifically designed for those areas. Treatments can reverse the signs of aging that result from exposure to everyday environmental factors such as sunlight, smog, pollution and stress with antioxidant rich treatments.  Facials can brighten your complexion, support healthy collagen levels, improve skin clarity, reduce blemishes , soothe inflammation, exfoliate, open clogged pores, rehydrate, and neutralize skin-aging free radicals restoring your skin’s natural radiance and clarity. And they feel amazing!

Here at North Beach Vascular in Miami we go a step further than your average spa facial. We have a state of the art Genesis laser facial treatment, part of the Cutera line, that promotes your skin’s collagen stimulation and production, tightens, and gives your skin a healthy glow. This collagen boost helps your skin rejuvenate from the inside out! This relaxing facial, even though performed with a laser, feels warm and therapeutic. By gently heating the upper dermis of the skin below the surface, this facial improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles through collagen stimulation. It also helps to reduce redness and rosy cheeks. The Cutera Genesis laser facial therapy can also help to reduce acne scars. After a short series of treatments the results are simply amazing! Patients report incredible results and a return of a visibly noticeable youthful appearance over their entire face and neck.

It is nothing short of miraculous!
