It's no secret that as we age skin damage, fine lines and imperfections become more apparent. And thanks to technology, we have been able to turn back time and now a new device that uses laser energy and radio waves is helping to give you a "Fresh Face".
Thirty-four-year-old Anne Bower of Methuen was never a sun-worshipper, but years of outdoor activities took its toll on her skin...
Anne Bower, Patient
"Little wrinkles around my eyes and lots of pigment from being out in the sun too much especially on my nose."
She craved a younger looking face, but opted not to have a harsh chemical peel or go under a knife.
Anne Bower, Patient
"Because of my age, there was no reason to get a face-lift, I don't have deep wrinkles."
Still, Anne wanted to get rid of fine lines and sun damage and that's when she heard about Foto Facial, a facial rejuvenation machine called Aurora.
Dr. Nathalie Majorek of Danvers says while to most this new device looks like a typical laser machine, the reality is that it does much more…

"It improves the color of your skin, it improves tone of your skin and your texture of the skin."
It's known as ELOS which stands for "electro optical synergy". What makes this one of a kind machine different is that it combines two different kinds of energies, intense pulse light with high frequency radio waves...
Dr. Nathalie Majorek, M.D. Dermatique
"Because we are using two technologies we are not burning the skin as other lasers have done."
It's the only skin rejuvenation system approved by the FDA that uses both laser and radio waves to erase the wear and tear of aging without pain or downtime.
It works when a technician using a handheld device applies controlled pulses of light on different kinds of skin imperfections. And will permanently remove them...
Dr. Nathalie Majorek, M.D. Dermatique
"It's about 20 to 30 minutes per session."
The areas that respond best to the treatment are broken capillaries, fine lines and pigmentation problems like age spots and freckles and it even helps with rosacea.
Anne Bower, Patient
"Oh, incredibly happy, absolutely, it's terrific."
In just four treatments Anne says her skin has improved beyond her expectations...
Anne Bower, Patient
"The little wrinkles are less my skin tone is incredibly even it's more youthful looking."
The procedure is costly running up to $400 per session. It's recommended to have between one and five treatments.
The Aurora machine is not just for facial rejuvenation, the technology also works for hair removal.
