Potenza RF Microneedling

by

What is it?

Potenza RF Microneedling is an advanced skin revitalization treatment that combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to enhance collagen production, tighten skin, and improve overall texture. This dual-technology approach allows for deeper skin remodeling, offering more dramatic results than microneedling alone.

Safe for all skin types and tones, Potenza RF Microneedling is ideal for addressing a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, large pores, and mild skin laxity. It can be used on the face, neck, décolleté, and other areas of the body where skin tightening or texture improvement is desired.

How does it work?

Potenza uses ultra-fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, which trigger the body’s natural healing process and stimulate new collagen and elastin production. At the same time, radiofrequency energy is delivered through the needles deep into the dermis, heating the tissue to further enhance tightening and regeneration.

The Potenza system is highly customizable, offering multiple tip configurations and depth settings, allowing our dermatology team to tailor the treatment to your skin’s specific needs and target multiple layers in a single session.

Common treatment benefits?

Potenza RF Microneedling offers a range of cosmetic and skin-health benefits, such as:

  • Firmer, tighter skin
  • Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Diminished acne scars and blemishes
  • Minimized pore size and improved skin texture
  • More even skin tone
  • Collagen and elastin stimulation for long-term rejuvenation
  • Little to no downtime

Results develop gradually over several weeks as collagen remodeling takes place. Multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal and lasting results.

Energy Lift

by

What is it?

Energy Lift is a cutting-edge, non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatment designed to lift, tone, and tighten the skin—without needles or downtime. This advanced procedure uses a combination of radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound technologies to stimulate deep layers of the skin, promoting collagen production and cellular repair. The result is a natural-looking lift and improved skin elasticity that enhances your features and restores youthful firmness.

Energy Lift is ideal for individuals looking to reduce sagging, smooth wrinkles, and achieve a more sculpted facial appearance. It’s especially effective on the cheeks, jawline, neck, and under-eye area, offering visible results with little to no discomfort.

How does it work?

Energy Lift works by delivering heat energy deep into the dermal layers using RF and/or focused ultrasound waves. This controlled thermal stimulation contracts existing collagen fibers while triggering the body’s natural process of collagen and elastin production over time.

Unlike invasive procedures or injectables, Energy Lift targets the foundation of the skin without disrupting the surface. Treatments are precise, safe, and comfortable, with many patients describing a warming sensation during the session.

Over the weeks following treatment, your skin continues to improve—becoming firmer, tighter, and more lifted—thanks to the ongoing regeneration of collagen.

Common treatment benefits?

Energy Lift offers a wide range of benefits, including:

  • Non-surgical lifting and tightening
  • Enhanced skin firmness and elasticity
  • Smoothing of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Improved facial contour and jawline definition
  • Reduced puffiness and under-eye sagging
  • Safe for all skin types
  • Little to no recovery time

Most patients see improvement after a single session, with continued results over several weeks. A series of treatments may be recommended based on your specific goals and skin condition.

Our approach & expertise

At Las Vegas Skin and Cancer Clinics, we’re committed to offering the latest in advanced dermatologic care—and Energy Lift is no exception. Our experienced providers customize each session based on your unique skin needs, ensuring the safest and most effective treatment possible.

We understand that your skin tells your story, and our goal is to help you look as vibrant and confident as you feel. With a personalized plan, expert guidance, and a focus on natural results, we’re here to support your skin health journey from start to finish.

PRX Derm Perfexion

by

What is it?

PRX Derm Perfexion is a non-invasive, no-peel skin treatment designed to rejuvenate and revitalize your skin without downtime. It’s a biorevitalization therapy that works beneath the surface, stimulating collagen production and skin regeneration—without causing visible peeling. Ideal for improving skin tone, texture, and firmness, PRX Derm Perfexion offers noticeable results with minimal discomfort, making it a popular option for patients seeking glowing, youthful skin without needles or extended recovery.

This advanced treatment is suitable for all skin types and is commonly used on the face, neck, décolleté, and even hands. It is especially helpful for treating signs of aging, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and acne scars.

How does it work?

PRX Derm Perfexion is powered by a unique combination of trichloroacetic acid (TCA), hydrogen peroxide, and kojic acid. Unlike traditional TCA peels that cause significant peeling and downtime, this formulation penetrates deeply into the dermis without harming the outer layers of skin. The hydrogen peroxide modulates the TCA to prevent visible damage, while stimulating dermal regeneration.

This chemical interaction jumpstarts collagen production and cellular renewal from within, helping your skin look smoother, tighter, and more radiant—without the irritation that’s often associated with chemical peels.

Common treatment benefits?

PRX Derm Perfexion offers a variety of skin-enhancing benefits, including:

Improved skin texture and elasticity

Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles

Faded pigmentation and dark spots

Minimized acne scars and enlarged pores

Brighter, more even-toned complexion

No downtime or peeling

Safe for all seasons and skin types

While results can be seen after just one session, a series of treatments may be recommended for optimal, long-lasting improvement.

Our approach & expertise

At Las Vegas Skin and Cancer Clinics, we’re excited to offer PRX Derm Perfexion as part of our commitment to advanced, patient-focused skincare. Our experienced dermatology team will carefully evaluate your skin and tailor a treatment plan that fits your individual needs and goals. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions—your skin is unique, and your care should be too.

ResurFX Skin Resurfacing

by

Every day at LVSCC, we talk to patients at our practices who are interested in reducing their issues while also wanting to avoid discomfort or a lengthy recovery period. One procedure that meets both of those goals is ResurFX laser skin resurfacing.

LUMENIS RESURFX SKIN RESURFACING

The ResurFX system is an FDA-approved non-ablative photo-fractional laser used to resurface and rejuvenate skin that appears dull from wrinkles, scars or collagen loss. It does not damage the skin surface even as it penetrates deep into the lower dermis.

ResurFX is different from other fractional skin resurfacing systems because one wave of the handpiece over the treatment area is all that is needed to reinvigorate collagen production and stimulate the skin’s healing properties. It’s a quicker, safer, more efficient procedure that delivers the same or better results.

The laser energy, size, and shape can be adjusted for each patient and condition, therefore, this one laser resurfacing system is versatile enough to address vascular conditions, pigmentation issues, and fine lines and wrinkles to generate noticeable skin rejuvenation.

Patients seeking the best possible results from laser treatments, such as ResurFX couldn’t be in better hands than with our board-certified dermatologists.

TREATMENT AREAS

Skin resurfacing with ResurFX is safe and effective for a variety of areas on the body:

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Décolletage
  • Upper arms
  • Abdomen
  • Lower back
  • Flanks
  • Buttocks
  • Upper thighs
  • Knees
  • Calves

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?

A good candidate for ResurFX in San Diego is someone in relatively good health and would like to improve the following:

  • Dull, lifeless-looking skin
  • Scars from acne, injury, or previous surgery
  • Wrinkles, facial lines, and age spots
  • Sun damage
  • Skin laxity
  • Loss of collagen production
  • Stretch marks

What to Expect

Laser Acne Scar Removal La Jolla

During a ResurFX procedure, the unique fractionated laser handheld device is passed just once across the targeted area, sending out laser energy that penetrates the skin completely without harming the outer layer. It targets collagen fibers in the skin’s support structure to build collagen and naturally repair skin and foster new skin growth.

By repairing the support structures of the skin, the procedure smooths wrinkles, minimizes the appearance of stretch marks, minimizes acne and other scars and generally gives the skin a lifted, revitalized appearance. One session takes 5-15 minutes depending on the size of the skin resurfacing treatment area and results in almost no downtime.

Read our pre/post-treatment guidelines for ResurFX.

Results from treatment with ResurFX depend on the extent of the treatment area but a general guideline is one treatment session a month for 4-6 months. Patients who follow their San Diego dermatologist’s pre- and post-treatment care routine can more readily expect to achieve their desired goals.

POST-TREATMENT CARE

Following the proper after-care routine can enhance results and help patients achieve their goals. For the first hour or two after a procedure, patients usually feel slight burning and itching sensation. Cold packs reduce irritation and swelling, while a 1% hydrocortisone cream should be applied twice a day the first two days.

Patients should use gentle cleansers with warm, not hot, water when bathing, keeping in mind not to soak in a tub or scrub for at least a week. Normal daily activities, however, should not be affected and there should be no downtime.

We offer top lines of professional skincare you can use daily at home to maintain the healthy improvements in your skin. With a personalized treatment program, you can rest assured your skin will remain in optimal health until you are ready to schedule another office procedure.

SIDE EFFECTS

ResurFX has proven to be safe over and over, yet a few side effects can be expected, though they should be mild. Swelling commonly appears after skin resurfacing treatment but usually disappears in 24-48 hours. There might also be mild redness for 2-3 days as well as skin roughness that eventually softens after a few days. clinicaltrials.gov went through a full study on the ResurFX.

TREATMENT GUIDELINES

During your procedure:

  • Your physician may elect to apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment area prior to
    treatment.
  • Your eyes will be protected.
  • Cold air will be applied directly to the skin surface as treatment is being performed to
    help decrease the sensation of heat & to protect the surface layer of your skin.
  • You will feel the sensation of heat (similar to a “rubber band snapping” against your
    skin).

After your procedure:

  • Redness and “welts” localized to the treated area may be present after treatment; this
    will subside in a few hours but can be covered with makeup if desired. Swelling can vary
    from patient to patient from no swelling at all to marked swelling.
  • Apply sunscreen with Zinc Oxide and/or Titanium Dioxide daily. Protect the treated
    area from sun exposure (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, etc.).
  • If necessary, ice packs applied to treated area day of the procedure will help reduce the
    heat sensation and help to minimize swelling.
  • Swelling typically peaks at 12 hours. If treatment was performed on your face, sleeping
    with your head slightly elevated for the first night will help minimize swelling.
  • NO RUBBING, PICKING, OR WIPING THE TREATMENT AREA.
  • OK to shower and/or wash face day of the procedure.
  • Gentle cleansing is fine. Avoid using a skin cleansing brush or anything abrasive for
    first 3 – 5 days after treatment. All other skin products and makeup are fine.
  • More than one treatment, done at ______ week/month intervals will be necessary to
    achieve optimal desired results.
  • Follow any additional specific post-treatment instructions from your physician.
  • Follow up with your physician in ______ days/weeks.

Your skin is our priority at Las Vegas Skin and Cancer Clinics. We’re here to guide you through every step of your dermatology journey.

Dermaplaning

by

About Dermaplaning

What is it?

To improve dull, lifeless skin that makes you look older than you are, you have many options. For an easy, non-invasive way to smooth skin, many women and men turn to simple exfoliation. This helps reduce dead skin cells, excess oils, and other debris to leave your skin fresher and softer.
However, there’s mere exfoliation and then there’s dermaplaning exfoliation. Dermaplaning takes the freshening aspects of exfoliation and amplifies them to skin-rejuvenating levels that are simply stunning.
Dermaplaning is a quick, noninvasive procedure that scrapes away dead skin cells, excess oil, and other debris. This helps maintain or restore the rate of cellular turnover that’s crucial to keeping your face fresh and youthful-looking. The result is skin that’s smoother and softer immediately.

Why dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is designed to address a variety of skin-related issues, including:
• Dull, lifeless skin
• Rough, dry skin
• Unwanted fine facial hair

Impact of dermaplaning

In effect, by scraping away dull surface skin, the procedure kicks the body’s self-healing properties into high gear. In turn, your body produces new skin cells that are healthier and plumper, which firms and tightens your skin while also brightening it.
This painless procedure also removes the fine peach fuzz, or vellus hair, from the face. This is a crucial bonus because this excess hair, despite being so fine, can trap dead cells, oil, dirt, and other debris, all of which contribute to dull, lifeless skin as well as other skin issues like acne. Because your skin is free of this debris, makeup can go on more easily and won’t cake as quickly. Cleansers that you use at home clean your face better because they penetrate more readily.

Our approach & expertise

Our providers are highly trained in the execution of scraping away dull surface skin, the procedure kicks the body’s self-healing properties into high gear. The goal is to make sure that you are looking your best, and our team will talk you through all the benefits of dermaplaning. Ask us more about this procedure and if it’s right for your skin. After all, Healthy Skin Is Our Passion.™ At Las Vegas Skin and Cancer Clinics, we’re here for you—ready to help with all your skin care needs in a welcoming, supportive environment.

Brachytherapy

by

About Brachytherapy

What is it?

Brachytherapy provides a faster skin cancer treatment with minimal side effects and exceptional cosmetic outcomes. The technology is unique because it uses a miniaturized x-ray source that can be turned on or off, instead of the traditional radioactive seeds that are always emitting radiation. This means that the shielding requirements are very minimal, and your radiation therapy team is able to remain in the treatment room with you. Because it is a short procedure with minimal side effects, eBxTM is an ideal skin cancer treatment alternative for patients not interested in surgery.

Brachytherapy benefits

  • Short, non‐invasive procedure with no hospital stay

  • Exceptional cosmetic outcomes in a relatively short timeframe
  • Ideal alternative for patients not interested in surgery or on a blood thinning medication (i.e. baby aspirin)

A different way to treat skin cancer

How Does HDR Brachytherapy Work?

The treatment is non-invasive and painless, providing an ideal alternative for those not interested in surgery.

Treatment Process

The radiation treatment process will begin with a consultation where the Radiation Oncologist will evaluate your condition and determine if Brachytherapy is the right skin cancer treatment for you.
During treatment, your Radiation Oncologist and Radiation Therapist will place a miniature x-ray source temporarily on the skin using a surface applicator. This allows the radiation to be delivered directly to the skin lesion with impeccable accuracy.

However, we have a variety of treatments to improve both your appearance and self-confidence. One procedure that does this safely and effectively is an BBL (broad-band light) Photofacial.
A BBL photofacial, is a broad-band source of light used for photo rejuvenation to improve a variety of skin conditions. It’s a simple 10-30 minute process (depending on the areas being treated), that is both non-invasive and effective.
Although termed a photofacial, BBL treatment is effective for the face as well as other parts of the body, including your:

PicoWay Laser

by

About PicoWay Laser

What is it?

The PicoWay system is not only known for its tattoo and pigment removal capabilities but also as an effective, non-invasive anti-aging device that can give skin a rejuvenated, more youthful appearance. We are also excited to have the PicoWay Resolve system which uses a gentle approach to building new collagen and elastin in the treatment of acne scars and wrinkles. In about 15- to 20-minute treatment sessions, the PicoWay Resolve system can transform skin while leaving the epidermis intact.

What to expect

The PicoWay laser uses ultra-short picosecond pulses to the skin. The resulting bursts of energy create a photo-mechanical impact which helps break up skin pigments or particles of tattoo ink. It works by utilizing two different laser handpieces that split the main laser beam into small, identical beams that can effectively target textural irregularities, skin pigmentation, and various complexion concerns.

PICOWAY LASER FOR TATTOO REMOVAL

For tattoo removal, PicoWay has three wavelengths that can be used to treat more colors than most lasers. It has large spot sizes which can penetrate deep into the skin as needed. The picosecond pulses are 40% shorter than other picosecond lasers, making PicoWay extremely effective while minimizing downtime and side effects.

PICOWAY LASER FOR SKIN REJUVENATION

As a skin rejuvenation treatment, PicoWay works by targeting both the epidermis and the dermis (deeper layer of skin that lies beneath the epidermis). It creates tiny open spaces deep within your skin which your body will fill up with elastin and collagen, resulting in improved skin tone, clarity, and texture –transforming your skin from the inside out. It also helps to even out irregular pigmentation and improve skin texture and tone.
And since PicoWay uses photo-acoustic instead of a photo-thermal effect, this means the skin will not overheat, making the treatment more comfortable than traditional lasers.  After the treatment, you’ll already notice an overall improvement in your complexion. You can resume your normal activities and even apply makeup over your treated skin within a single day of treatment.
We make it a point to make our treatments as accessible to everyone as possible. PicoWay allows for the treatment of a variety of skin types, making it ideal for people of color who wish to have tattoos or skin lesions treated. To learn more about laser tattoo removal, visit ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.

What conditions are treated with PicoWay lasers?

PicoWay targets these skin irregularities and conditions:
  • Acne scars
  • Birthmarks
  • Fine lines
  • Dark spots
  • Pigmented lesions
  • Scars
  • Sun damage
  • Stretch marks
  • Wrinkles
  • Tattoos

The Villani Treatment

by

About the Villani Treatment

What is it?

The Villani Treatment is a revolutionary treatment that uses millions of years of evolution to improve your skin, particularly when it endures aging, trauma, or environmental stress factors. Available only at select dermatology offices, the treatment uses the bioactive compounds of a specific sea sponge, Spongilla lacustris, to help restore the natural quality of your skin. The treatment uses active and potent compounds of this sea sponge to heal, regenerate, and enhance the quality of your skin. It can safely and effectively activate your skin’s self-healing properties by penetrating the upper layers of the skin.

What to expect

Because the Villani Treatment has both anti-viral and anti-bacterial compounds, its effects are powerful and rapid. Results are as effective as, if not more effective than, conventional procedures like lasers, but without the downtime or possible side effects associated with these procedures. The Villani Treatment is designed to help fight the effects of aging by doing the following: repairing sun damage, clearing acne, stimulating cell renewal, promoting collagen and elastin production, lightening hyperpigmentation, reducing bruising and swelling (ideal for use after dermal filler treatment), smoothing rough texture, and removing skin impurities.

After the procedure

Immediately after the Villani Treatment, your skin will have a healthy shine right due to improved blood flow. For 3-4 days after the procedure, you may feel a tingling sensation as the treatment works to exfoliate dull or dead skin cells. We recommend weekly or bi-weekly treatment sessions until a specific issue, such as acne or sun damage, is corrected. Maintenance sessions are then recommended every 4-6 weeks so that you can maintain your glow.

Our approach & expertise

We know that you are always thinking about ways to improve your skin, especially if it makes you look more youthful and involves as little downtime or side effects as possible. That’s why our skin experts are always researching the latest skin-rejuvenating therapies like the Villani Treatment that help you look and feel your best.
