Skin Rejuvenation
Skin rejuvenation treatments are the ideal choice for patients seeking to reduce the effects of aging by restoring your skin’s youthful elasticity and brightness. Skin rejuvenation can also be used for therapeutic purposes to treat skin conditions such as rosacea, irregular pigmentation, broken capillaries, spider veins, freckles, or brown spots. For cosmetic enhancements, skin rejuvenation can reduce the signs of aging on the face, arms, and hands through a variety of treatment options.
Skin rejuvenation treatments include:
- Intense pulse light (ITP): This treatment pulses light rays on the affected areas to remove discoloration and tighten sagging skin.
- Chemical peels: Chemical peels are a non-surgical, outpatient procedure that causes your skin to exfoliate at an expedited rate to remove the outermost layers of your skin to reveal new, rejuvenated skin.
- Dermabrasion: Refers to the surgical scraping of your skin to soften skin surface irregularities to reveal healthier, brighter complexion.
We want you to feel confident in your skin which is why we utilize only the safest, most effective skin rejuvenation treatments for our patients. For more information on skin rejuvenation or to request an appointment, please don’t hesitate to contact us today at 281-947-6120.
Microneedling (SkinPen)
Microneedling is a minimally invasive facial treatment that encourages the natural rejuvenation and anti-aging processes of your skin while injecting serum to encourage collagen and elastin growth.
The advanced surgical device used ensures precise punctures with the necessary depth and speed needed to target collagen growth in specific areas of the face.
Microneedling is used to treat the appearance of:
- Acne scars
- Age spots
- Large pores
- Minor scars
- Stretch marks
- Burns
- Freckles
Microneedling is best used on those with healthy skin and no current acne. The tiny, sterile needles puncture the skin repeatedly, triggering a healing response. Patients may return to activities the next day. Redness is the most common side effect. Dryness, stinging, and tingling are also reported.
Results peak around 4-6 months, with the newly built collagen lasting for years. Most patients come back every few months for microneedling sessions.

Chemical Peel
A chemical peel is a treatment to improve and smooth the texture of your facial skin, causing dead skin to slough off to reveal new and healthy-looking skin.
Chemical peels use specific formulations and are safe to use on almost all skins. They vary in strength because they are designed for your skin type or condition. During your consultation, our friendly and educated plastic surgeon will be able to determine which chemical peel and treatment program will be best for you depending on your goals.
There are many benefits to a chemical peel. First, chemical peels can help remove rough skin from the face. They can also improve irregular skin pigmentation from sun-damaged skin. Finally, they can help soften any fine lines and wrinkles that you have on your face.
Our entire staff is dedicated to helping you receive the results that you are looking for. We will work with you to exceed your expectations. We are always willing to answer any of your questions before or after your treatment.
HydraFacial MD™ Super Facial
Sometimes, our skin needs a fresh start. With the systematic approach for individualized and complete skincare delivered by the HydraFacial MD™, your skin will feel renewed and more fresh than ever. By removing the buildup of old makeup, product, oils, etc., and filling your skin with nourishing hydration, you’ll be left with a gorgeous glow.
How does it work?
- Cleanse: Dead skin is sloughed away with the HydraFacial MD™ Active-4 cleanser. The non-acid exfoliants soothe, calm, and hydrate the skin while penetrating deeper than your regular face wash. The result is loosening and removal of sebum and dead skin cells.
- Acid Peel: The correct strength of peel will be chosen for you based on your skin. Most patients receive gentle peels which exfoliate and neutralize the skin.
- Extractions: Vortex suction with a special tip clears congestion and tightens pores while infusing salicylic acid and honey extract for smoothness and hydration. This treatment is painless and non-irritating.
- Hydration: The vortex fusion allows us to infuse your skin with vitamins, skin conditioners, and moisturizers for that healthy, dewy glow.
- Protection: After your treatment, targeted treatments will be applied to help begin your new skin care regimen.
While the HydraFacial MD™ will greatly refresh any patient’s skin, we recommend it as a “reset” before beginning a new facial skincare routine. By removing deeply hidden dirt and old makeup, your skin will be receptive and ready for a new routine.
If you’re ready for the renewing treatment of HydraFacial MD™ that celebrities like Beyoncé, Paris Hilton, and Kate Winslet love, give our office a call today.
Microdermabrasion
his non-invasive abrasion method exfoliates the skin and can remove the top layers of skin, reducing the color of the brown spot.
Facial Lasers
The laser treatment we will recommend for you will be largely dependent on your specific goals. Different lasers offer different benefits and downtimes, so we will take your time frame, desired result, and skin type into consideration before making any recommendations. We will discuss all of this during your initial consultation to help find the right treatment for you.
Acne Treatment
Acne occurs when the pores in your skin are blocked with oil, bacteria, and dead skin cells that clog your pores. These skin cells, sebum (oily, waxy matter secreted from your glands), dead skin, and hair clump together to plug pores, causing an infection and resulting in inflammation, or a pimple. Acne is not discriminatory, and for most people, pimples and acne start to appear during puberty and last into the early 20s, and in more severe cases, even well into adulthood.
The types of acne can vary on the severity of your case, but can include:
- Whiteheads: These occur when the pore is clogged and swell due to follicle blockage.
- Blackheads: Blackheads appear when the pore is open, but the follicle is being blocked.
- Tender bumps: Some patients have small red and tender bumps on their skin called papules.
- Pimples: Pimples are distinguished by a red pigment at the base of the affected area and are painful to touch.
- Cysts: Cysts are large and clearly visible on the skin, painful to touch, filled with pus and can leave scars if not treated correctly.
We recommend at-home treatments and general lifestyle changes before taking a more aggressive approach to remedying your acne.
At-home treatments include:
- Changing diet: By making small changes in your diet such as cutting out dairy products and wheat, you can identify if a food allergy is causing your acne rather than another environmental issue.
- Exercise: Getting plenty of exercise will allow your body to sweat and naturally clear your pores through perspiration.
- Not touching your face: While it sounds all too simple, frequently touching your face is an easy way to spread bacteria and can make your acne much worse, spreading the infection into new areas.
- Consistently washing your face: By washing your face twice a day with warm water and mild soap, you will help your body fight bacterial infections and keep your pores from being infected or clogged.
- Gently scrub your skin: When washing your face, it is important not to scrub your face too hard as the added pressure can push the bacteria further into the pores and make the infection worse.
If at-home remedies are not keeping your acne at bay, then it is time to discuss how medication can help manage your breakouts and face or body acne. At Precision Med Spa, we prescribe a treatment plan that neutralizes the bacterial infection you may be fighting and utilize various over-the-counter medications or medicated scrubs to manage and remedy your acne breakouts while preventing new ones.
