Brevard Plastic Surgery & Skin Treatment Center Information

Brevard Plastic Surgery & Skin Treatment Center is offering its patients the latest technology in cosmetic skin treatment --- the Sciton Profile laser system. The center is one of the first in Florida and currently, the only one in Brevard County, to offer Sciton's comprehensive scope of services including MicroLaserPeel, ArcticPeel, vascular treatments, skin resurfacing, hair removal, PhotoRejuvenation, and Thermascan collagen lightening. This breakthrough technology is considered the new standard of care for patients undergoing laser skin resurfacing by providing precision coverage, faster procedures, cooling comfort, quicker recovery and a reduced need for additional treatments. With the complete Sciton System Profile, Dr. Guy and her team of specialists can offer patients a continuous range of treatments from the MicroLaserPeelTM (MLP), a minimally invasive weekend peel or "weekend facelift," to a full skin resurfacing treatment that provides dramatic improvement including fuller, tighter, younger-looking skin and the reduction of acne scars, as well as laser hair removal (LHR) treatment that performs at twice the speed of most hair removal systems. Developed by Sciton, Inc., (Palo Alto, CA), the company is a leader in advanced equipment for aesthetic medicine. Founded by James Hobart, Ph.D., builder of the first successful medical lasers in the early 1960's, Hobart is recognized worldwide as a leader and innovator in laser science and laser medicine. Partners Daniel Negus, Ph.D., and Dale Koop, Ph.D., are also responsible for many innovations in the laser technology including skin rejuvenation and laser resurfacing. The fourth generation technology behind the Sciton Profile is computer-controlled, delivering high speed and uniform coverage over large areas of skin. Additionally, an advanced cooling device - the SuperCooler -- precisely integrates full-contact skin cooling for optimal skin temperature control and added comfort. The LAPG Computer Guided Scanners allow for automated treatment of large areas where hand placement of thousands of laser spots would be impractical. The erbium: TAG laser safely treats all skin types including tanned skin. "We are excited to offer this vast range of treatments to our patients," says Roxanne Guy, MD, F.A.C.S. a board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Brevard Plastic Surgery & Skin Treatment Center. "This technology will help provide a more positive experience during and after their treatments with computer-guided laser beam placement for perfect coverage, fewer treatments, and increased comfort." The laser vascular treatment effectively treats a full range of vascular conditions such as spider veins, telangiectasia, rocacea and blotchiness with superior speed and advanced scanning technology. The technology also further improves the science of broadband light therapy with PhotoRejuventation - Sciton's advanced treatments for age spots, freckles, and birthmarks. "Because of people's busy lifestyles today, it is more important than ever to offer convenience and flexibility in cosmetic applications," says Denise Pardue, Advanced Nurse Practitioner at Brevard Plastic Surgery Center. "The Sciton Profile provides a more comfortable solution and a more exacting one for our young patients and their families who request treatment for birthmarks, acne or acne scars."
