What Is ADVATx®?
ADVATx® features a combination of laser wavelengths, each of which is focused on addressing specific concerns.
ADVA Clear
Clear combines yellow (589nm) and infrared (1319nm) laser energy to eliminate rosacea, acne, acne scars, and undesired vascular abnormalities such as telangiectasias, hemangiomas, and venous lakes, restoring the skin to a healthier and younger-looking state.
ADVA Bright
Bright combines yellow (589nm) and infrared (1319nm) laser energy to improve skin tone and texture, targeting the hemoglobin as well as dyschromia seen in sun-damaged skin while at the same time reducing fine lines, limiting oil production and shrinking pore size.

- Telangiectasias

What to Expect From Treatment
ADVATx® uses soft, nanosecond pulses during treatment. The interval between pulses allows for the diffusion of heat, resulting in a gradual increase in the target area’s temperature. As the heat in the target area increases, the surrounding tissue is preserved – making the use of cooling systems unnecessary. Treatments take little time and result in the improvement of skin texture and reduction in hyperpigmentation issues.
No numbing cream is needed during treatment and no downtime is needed after. ADVATx®’s two-wavelength system and nanopulse technology allows us to address areas of hyperpigmentation with pinpoint precision. Treatments take little time and results are long-lasting. Several sessions may be needed to get the best outcome. We will discuss and structure an ideal treatment protocol during your initial consultation to make sure you get the most out of your time with us.

ADVATx® Skin Resurfacing FAQs
What is ADVATx® Skin Resurfacing and why is it a premier choice for laser skin resurfacing?
ADVATx® is a premier technology for laser skin resurfacing due to its advanced handpiece that delivers precise laser energy to the skin’s surface. This energy vaporizes the outer layer of dead skin cells, stimulating the growth of new collagen and revealing younger, smoother skin underneath. ADVATx® is a safe and effective treatment that can provide long-lasting results.
How does laser skin resurfacing work?
Laser skin resurfacing uses a special handpiece that delivers precise laser energy to the skin’s surface, vaporizing the outer layer of dead skin cells. The body’s natural healing process then removes these dead cells and stimulates the growth of new collagen, which helps improve the skin’s texture, tone, and elasticity.
Is laser skin resurfacing painful?
Most patients describe laser skin resurfacing as feeling like a mild sunburn, and it is generally not painful. A topical anesthetic cream can be applied to the skin before the treatment to help minimize any discomfort.
How many sessions of laser skin resurfacing will I need?
The number of sessions required for optimal results will depend on the severity of your skin condition and your individual goals. Most patients require between 3-6 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
What can I expect during laser skin resurfacing treatment?
During the treatment, a special handpiece will be passed over your skin, delivering the laser energy. You may feel a mild warmth or tingling sensation as the laser energy is applied. The treatment typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
What can I expect after laser skin resurfacing treatment?
There is no downtime with the AdvaTX unlike other laser devices. You should avoid direct sun exposure and wear sunscreen to protect your skin. It is also important to avoid using any harsh skincare products or exfoliants for a few days following the treatment.
Is laser skin resurfacing safe?
Yes, laser skin resurfacing is a safe and effective treatment when performed by a trained and experienced professional. The technology used in ADVATx® Skin Resurfacing has been approved by the FDA for cosmetic use.
How long do the results of laser skin resurfacing last?
The results of laser skin resurfacing can last for several months to a year, depending on your individual skin type and lifestyle factors such as sun exposure and smoking. To maintain optimal results, it is recommended to schedule periodic maintenance treatments.
Can laser skin resurfacing be combined with other treatments?
Yes, laser skin resurfacing can be combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as injectables or dermal fillers, to achieve a more comprehensive rejuvenation of the face.
How do I prepare for laser skin resurfacing treatment?
Before your treatment, it is recommended to avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 2 weeks. You should also avoid using any retinoids or exfoliants for at least a week before your treatment. Be sure to discuss any medications or medical conditions with your skin care expert prior to your treatment.
Are there any potential side effects of laser skin resurfacing?
While laser skin resurfacing is a safe treatment, there are some potential side effects that may occur, including redness, swelling, and mild discomfort after the treatment. In rare cases, patients may experience hyperpigmentation or scarring. However, these side effects are typically temporary and can be minimized by following the post-treatment care instructions provided by your skin care expert.
Who is a good candidate for laser skin resurfacing?
Laser skin resurfacing is an ideal treatment for individuals who want to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, scars, and uneven skin texture. It is suitable for most skin types, but may not be appropriate for individuals with active acne or certain skin conditions. A consultation with a skin care expert will help determine if laser skin resurfacing is the right treatment for you.
How long does the laser skin resurfacing treatment take to perform?
Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean.
Is there any downtime after the laser skin resurfacing treatment?
While there is typically no downtime after laser skin resurfacing, it is normal to experience some redness, swelling, and mild discomfort after the treatment. These side effects should subside within a few days. You may also need to avoid certain activities, such as exercise or swimming, for a short period of time after the treatment.
How soon will I see results after laser skin resurfacing?
Most patients begin to see improvement in their skin’s appearance after the first treatment. However, optimal results are typically achieved after a series of treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Your skin care expert will discuss your expected timeline for results during your consultation.
Can laser skin resurfacing be used on other parts of the body?
Laser Skin resurfacing is now possible on the body with the AdvaTX platform and its dual wavelength technology.
How much does laser skin resurfacing cost?
The cost of laser skin resurfacing varies depending on the individual’s skin condition and treatment goals. During your consultation, your skin care expert will provide you with a personalized treatment plan and pricing information.
Is laser skin resurfacing covered by insurance?
Laser skin resurfacing is considered a cosmetic treatment and is not typically covered by insurance. However, some insurance plans may cover the cost of the treatment if it is deemed medically necessary. It is best to check with your insurance provider to determine if coverage is available.
