Fine lines, age spots, and visible veins are just a few common skin concerns that come with aging skin. The ThreeForMe™ Refresh combines two different laser techniques, intense-pulsed light (IPL) therapy with the ICON resurfacing laser, to “Refresh” these three common concerns, hence the name ThreeForMe™ Refresh. IPL light therapy specifically targets visible facial veins, brown spots, and broken blood vessels, while the ICON non-ablative fractional laser addresses rough skin texture, acne scars, and wrinkles with no damage to the skin’s surface.
Even gentler than the traditional ThreeForMe™ treatment, this combined laser and light technology stimulates collagen and elastin production for immediate and ongoing skin rejuvenation.
The ThreeForMe™ Refresh is a unique treatment invented by Dr. Jennifer Janiga and offered only at JanigaMDs. It is a modified version of Cynosure’s The ThreeForMe™ treatment specifically designed by Dr. Janiga for what she was seeing in her patients in Reno, NV. The traditional The ThreeForMe™ is an even distribution of treatment for red, brown, and collagen with about 3-5 days of social downtime from swelling. Dr. Janiga saw that the patients in Reno who live at high elevation and are highly involved in outdoor activities needed more treatments for sunspots and veins from their sun damage, wanted less recovery time, but still wanted more collagen stimulation than IPL alone would offer, so she modified the treatments and created the ThreeForMe™ Refresh.
The ThreeForMe™ Refresh is the same treatment for brown and red areas as the full ThreeForMe™ with IPL, but the collagen stimulation is turned down some to decrease recovery and allow this to become a lunchtime procedure where patients can have it done 3-4 times per year, and go right back to work afterward. ThreeForMe Refresh uses the same lasers and targets the same problems as ThreeForMe, but the resurfacing settings are less intense. The Refresh is designed for those people who have more sun damage, prefer a series of milder, quicker treatments rather than one longer and more intense treatment. These milder treatments allow less downtime and a quicker return to normal activities than the more intense ThreeForMe. In general, 2-3 ThreeForMe Refresh treatments are equivalent to one ThreeForMe treatment.
Many patients would like to treat their sun damage and skin irregularities, but do not have the 3-5 days of social downtime. The ThreeForMe™ Refresh is a perfect lunchtime procedure that still addresses all these concerns. By stimulating collagen production on a regular basis and resurfacing new, healthy skin, patients can expect immediate and long-lasting results. ThreeforMe™ Refresh can address many different skin imperfections caused by sun damage and natural aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, vascular lesions, redness, and other surface imperfections, all in one treatment. Patients can enjoy smoother, brighter skin and a more youthful appearance to boost their confidence.
ThreeForMe™ Refresh is ideal for patients who want quick skin rejuvenation without downtime. It is a gentler version of the original ThreeForMe™. Using laser energy to heat the skin, the Refresh version still improves brown spots, sun spots, redness, and fine lines. The ThreeForMe™ Refresh is quick and comfortable, making it easy to fit into busy routines. Dr. Jennifer Janiga or her associates can meet with you to determine if the ThreeForMe™ Refresh suits you. A customized treatment plan will be created to safely and effectively treat your specific concerns.
For the ThreeForMe™ Refresh, numbing is usually unnecessary, so you will come in and get started after your face is cleaned, unless you would prefer numbing medication. Dr. Jennifer or her associates will select the appropriate laser settings, using gentler energy to treat your skin concerns. The first and pass treats discoloration, redness, and veins on the outer layers of the skin, and the second stimulates deeper collagen production to address fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. This procedure only requires about 30 minutes, and patients experience minimal discomfort, making it the perfect “lunchtime” procedure.
There is minimal downtime needed after the ThreeForMe™ Refresh, so patients can get right back to their routine. Some minor redness and swelling, similar to a mild sunburn, may be present for a few hours following treatment. Patients should avoid excess sun exposure to avoid post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and skin irritation.
You will see a reduction in facial veins immediately, a reduction in generalized redness over a few treatments, and a reduction in sun spots with each treatment. Over the next several weeks, you will see visible results as the treated skin naturally responds to treatment and new collagen and healthier skin cells are produced. One treatment session will give you improvements, but for optimal results, most patients will have 3-4 treatment sessions of this lunchtime procedure per year as maintenance.
