IPL Photorejuvenation

Brighten your complexion

Safely and comfortably fade the appearance of skin imperfections caused by the sun, acne, hormonal imbalances. IPL stands for intense pulsed light, a cosmetic procedure which uses the power of light to address multiple types of skin discoloration including brown and red blemishes to clarify your complexion, creating a more youthful appearance.

Typically performed as a series of 3-6 treatments. Schedule now to set up your skin care consultation.

  • Fades brown age spots, sun spots and acne-induced hyperpigmentation

  • Helps clear active acne and other blemishes

Sublative Laser Skin Resurfacing

Rewind the Clock

Sublative Skin Resurfacing offers patients of all skin types a safe and effective solution for taking years off one’s appearance by gently removing the top layers of damaged skin while stimulating collagen production. This procedure utilizes fractionated radiofrequency (heat) to deliver a powerful and quick complexion “reset” following a history of acne, scarring, and aging skin. It may be combined with other therapies such as PRP Skin Rejuvenation and IPL Photorejuvenation for more pronounced, quicker results.

This is a needle-free procedure with quick results and little down-time. Typically performed as a series of 3-6 treatments. Schedule now to set up your skin care consultation

  • Stimulates collagen production for a skin-tightening effect
  • Reduces appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Improves acne scars and other superficial texture and tone imperfections

SUBLATIVE

How do I get started with cosmetic laser procedures at FoRM?

We recommend anyone interested in a laser treatment schedule a 15 minute consultation with our aesthetician before their first treatment. This allows us to determine personalized treatment recommendations & expectations, review contraindications and risks.

How does Sublative (Laser) Skin Resurfacing work?

Sublative Skin Resurfacing uses fractional radiofrequency, a heating technique, which gently ablates (removes) the top layers of skin while penetrating deeper into the skin to stimulate new collagen production. The increased collagen and regeneration of healthy skin cells results in a smoother, more even and brighter complexion.

Is Sublative right for me?

It is a “needle-free”, non-invasive cosmetic procedure aimed at improving the appearance and health of the skin’s surface, providing almost immediate results. It is most appropriate for those looking to address mild to moderate wrinkles and superficial imperfections of your skin’s tone and texture. This treatment is a safe and effective solution for most skin types. To optimize anti-aging effects, it may be combined with IPL Photorejuvenation and PRP Skin Rejuvenation- please inquire about combined treatments during your consultation.

When can I expect to see results?

Typically 5-7 days after treatment, as the skin recovers from the treatment. Each treatment has an additive effect, so to optimize results, 3 monthly treatments are recommended. The total number of required treatment sessions depends on your skin’s condition.

Does it hurt?

During treatment, many patients feel a warm, prickly sensation as energy enters their skin. Most treatments last 30 min. Topical anesthetic ointments and cooling are used to reduce unpleasant feelings during treatment. The face will feel hot at the end of the treatment. This may persist for a couple hours after treatment.

What can I expect after the treatment?

Immediately following treatment, it is common to have a light (pink) “sunburn” appearance for 24-48 hours. As the “sunburn” appearance fades, your skin will have a mild grid-like pattern (from the matrix) typically for 7-10 days following treatment. The “grid” then sloughs off, revealing healthier, more rejuvenated skin.This is a no-downtime procedure and can wear mineral based make-up 24 hours following the procedure. Many patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

What is the cost of treatment?

Treatments cost $600. Packages of 3 are discounted by 10%, packages of 6 are discounted by 20%.

IPL PHOTOFACIAL

How does IPL Photorejuvenation work?

This treatment combines bi-polar radio frequency (heat) and light therapy to precisely and safely fade pigmented lesions such as freckles, sun & age spots, and acne. Vascular lesions such as spider veins and redness from rosacea are also lightened and gradually fade.

Is an IPL Photofacial right for me?

This treatment is most appropriate for those looking to reduce the appearance of darkened lesions and small blood vessels on the surface of the skin. It can also help reduce the appearance of active acne and hyper-pigmentation from past acne lesions. It may not be appropriate for those with very dark complexions or recently tanned skin. To optimize anti-aging effects, it can be combined with Sublative Skin Resurfacing and PRP Skin Rejuvenation. Please inquire about combined treatments during a complimentary consult.

When can I expect to see results?

Initial results are visible typically 1 week following treatment. Gradual and cumulative improvement of complexion is typically achieved over the course of 3-6 treatment sessions, as the lesions continue to fade with each treatment, and in many cases, completely disappear. The total number of required treatment sessions depends on your skin’s condition. Schedule a consultation to establish your personalized treatment schedule.

Does it hurt?

Most clients experience little to no discomfort. Once the treatment is complete, there is no lingering discomfort. In addition, our E-los device monitors the skin’s temperature during treatment to ensure safety and improve comfort during treatment. This is a no-downtime procedure. Many patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

Is there down-time?

This is a no downtime procedure. Most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment. For a period of 5-7 days after treatment, targeted lesions may appear darker before sloughing off. During this time, mineral-based make-up can be used to cover darkened lesions.

What is the cost of the treatment?

Costs range between $150 for spot treatment (a 15 minute appointment or 5 or fewer targeted spots) and $300 for full face or body part (30 min appointment). Packages of 3 are discounted by 10%, packages of 6 are discounted by 20%.

MOTIF LASER HAIR REMOVAL

How does Laser Hair Removal work?

Hair follicles are precisely targeted and destroyed using a combination of bi-polar radio frequency and light energies.

Is Laser Hair Removal right for me?

Both men and women can achieve permanent hair reduction on almost any body area. We use an E-los laser which is proven to be effective for removing lighter colored hair on most skin types. To achieve a successful outcome on lighter hair, more treatments may be needed compared to darker hair.

When can I expect to see results?

Hair growth is reduced after the first treatment and increasingly so with each subsequent treatment. The number of treatments required will be based on your hair color, hair type, body area and skin type.

Does it hurt?

Most clients experience little to no discomfort. Once the treatment is complete, there is no lingering discomfort. In addition, our E-los laser constantly measures the skin’s resistance to ensure safety and improve comfort during treatment. This is a no-downtime procedure. Many patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

What is the cost of the treatment?

Pricing ranges from $150/ treatment for a small region ie underarms or upper lip (15 minute appointment), $200 for a medium area ie bikini or lower leg (30 min appointment), and $300 for large or multiple areas (45-60 min appt). Beyond one hour, each additional 15 minutes of treatment costs $100. Packages of 3 are discounted by 10%, packages of 6 are discounted by 20%.

In honor of all the roses blooming in Portland right now…

Mei Gui Hua (Rosa rugosa/ Chinese rosebud) is used in Chinese Medicine to move Liver Qi Stagnation (think stress, tension and irritability), smooth digestion, and improve the complexion.  It can also gently move stagnant blood and is often used in formulas for PMS, breast tenderness, and menstrual cramps. 

The second picture shows Mei Gui Hua in a formula with Wu Wei Zi (schizandra), Gou Qi Zi (Goji Berry), Bai Mu Er (white wood ear mushroom), Shan Yao (Dioscorea) and Huang Qi (Astragalus). I call it my "skin and yin" formula. By tonifying Qi, Blood and Yin, nourishing Fluids, and gently invigorating the Blood, the formula can be used for a wide range of issues, including dry, lackluster skin, fatigue, and hormone imbalance postpartum or post-pregnancy loss. 

Mei Gui Hua is a relatively safe herb, but as always, be sure to check in with your friendly neighborhood herbalist to make sure any herbs you want to take are right for you!
