The Icon laser is a powerful aesthetics tool. At Magic Valley Family Practice, Drew and Jennifer use a variety of different Icon handpieces — including the MaxR™, MaxG™, MaxYs™, and 1540 — to help their patients achieve their aesthetic goals.
Icon laser technology can address a number of cosmetic concerns, including:
Icon laser is a versatile technology that can be applied in different ways, depending on your aesthetic goal. Below are a few examples of what the various attachments and handpieces do.
The Icon MaxR is designed for permanent hair removal. It works by sending laser energy into the hair follicles you want to target, heating them until they’re permanently destroyed and can no longer produce hair. Multiple sessions may be required to achieve your desired results, but hair removal is permanent.
IPL photofacials help you achieve smooth, even, clear skin. The MaxG sends light energy into your unwanted dark spots, redness, and other imperfections. These imperfections absorb energy and break up. You’ll see them begin to appear on the surface of your skin with a texture similar to coffee grounds. As spots flake off, you’ll see clearer, more evenly toned skin.
The MaxYs is a versatile tool. It permanently removes hair and works similarly to the MaxR. It can also remove sun damage by breaking up the dark spots the same way the MaxG does.
If you have acne scars, surgical scars, stretch marks, or fine lines and wrinkles, the Icon 1540 can turn back the clock, restoring an even texture and tone to your skin. It works by targeting your unwanted marks with laser energy, which is absorbed by your skin. This triggers the production of new, healthy skin in your body, minimizing the appearance of scars, fine lines, and stretch marks.
If you have imperfections that are keeping you from looking and feeling your best, the Icon laser is a safe, noninvasive way to reduce their appearance and restore your confidence.
