January 12th, 2021

UVA and UVB rays are extremely damaging to skin, causing wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, thickened skin and even skin cancer.

At Dr. Boulos Medical Spa, we understand the importance for you to look and feel your best and we are here to support you. Our VISIA Complexion Analysis and Medical Facials, are just a couple of cosmetic treatments available to reduce the effects of skin damage.

How To Protect Your Skin From Sun Damage

VISIA Complexion Analysis

This new digital imaging system is used for evaluating skin on the surface and sub-surface levels. By providing a comprehensive photo-assessment, Visia allows an individualized treatment plan to be developed for each unique patient.

VISIA Complexion Analysis can uncover:

  • UV Spots: Sunburn fades after a few days, but hidden sun damage can last far longer. UV spots develop below the skin when melanin coagulates after experiencing sun damage. These blemishes are generally invisible in normal lighting conditions.
  • Porphyrins: Porphyrins are bacterial components that can clog your pores and lead to acne. If VISIA Complexion Analysis locates a high percentage of porphyrins, that’s a sign you may need to step up your cleansing game.
  • Wrinkles: VISIA Complexion Analysis will provide you with that data, allowing you to make educated decisions for your skin’s health as you grow older.
  • Skin Tone and Color: VISIA will quantify your skin’s smoothness by detecting graduations in color and texture. Additionally, the analysis will identify spots and lesions on the skin, such as freckles, hyperpigmentation, acne, and Rosacea.
  • Enlarged Pores: VISIA will reveal enlarged pores so you will know if you should focus on pore-minimizing treatments.

Dr. Boulos Medical Spa offers our patients a complimentary VISIA Complexion Analysis.

Medical Facials

Since sun damage can cause multiple problems for the skin, from dryness and wrinkles to age spots and hyperpigmentation. A medical facial is a great treatment to help tackle multiple problems at once. They can be totally customized to suit the needs of your specific skin type or sun damage in order to give the most successful results.

Our facial treatments and highly trained specialists can help renew your skin from the inside out, making it healthier, stronger, and younger on the inside so that it is years younger, healthier, and more beautiful on the outside.
