Our highly skilled aestheticians and therapists are masters at ensuring a healthy balance of rejuvenated skin, relaxation of the central nervous system, and quiet peace of mind and soul.
Our ability to administer clinical medical treatments in luxurious home-like surroundings results in a relaxing, healing, rejuvenating experience for your body, mind, and spirit. Treatments are available for pre-operative and post-operative skin care, fine lines, acne, dull complexion, milia (whiteheads), hyperpigmentation (brown spots), large pores, dry flaky skin, and blackheads.
Caniglia MD Medispa treatments include:
Chemical Peels
Our chemical peels range from mild alpha hydroxy to stronger TCA peels. Treatments are customized to your specific skin type and condition. You will experience improvement in the appearance of fine lines, brown spots, and acne. Multiple treatments are recommended to achieve the desired result. During your treatment you may feel some slight tingling, warmth, or a tight sensation. This will subside once the chemical is removed or neutralized. There is little or no down time, but this can vary by individual. Following your treatment you may have slight redness and light flaking for two to four days. Results will vary depending on the condition of your skin and other factors.

Laser Vein Treatment
This safe and effective treatment utilizes the Dualis Fotona Twinlight Non-Ablative Laser. The laser transmits flashes of light through the skin, seeking out the vein and causing it to heat up. This destroys the vein without causing any harm to the skin or body. You will feel a sensation of heat and the momentary feeling of a rubber band snapped against the skin. This feeling subsides almost immediately. Following the treatment you may experience redness and slight swelling at the treatment site, which will gradually subside. We recommend up to four treatments for desired results.

Photo FacialSM
The Prolite Photo FacialSMutilizes patented Fluorescent Pulsed Light Technology to deliver a series of gentle light pulses to the skin using filters for maximum effectiveness. Photo FacialSM effectively treats redness, Rosacea, hyper-pigmentation (or brown spots), and acne on the face, neck, chest, hands and arms. It helps restore a more youthful appearance to your skin with no down time, little discomfort, and minimal risk. A topical anesthetic is applied to the skin prior to treatment to minimize any discomfort. These treatments smooth skin, reduce pore size, and improve overall texture and appearance of your skin. Treatments take approximately one hour. You will experience an improvement after your first treatment. Five treatments are recommended for optimal results. Improvements are gradual and will accelerate after each treatment. Combined with other skin therapies, Photo FacialSM can produce even greater results.

Photoactif Illumicare™ Light Treatment
This treatment uses specific wavelengths of polychromatic infrared energy produced by super-luminous LEDs (light emitting diodes). When combined with condition specific synergistic products it produces profound effects on the skin. You will feel a calming sensation of well-being, deep relaxation and warmth while receiving a highly effective skin corrective therapy. You will see dramatic improvement in your skin texture and tone with just one treatment. Because these treatments work from within the skin, your skin will feel active, more alive, plumper, and tighter. The results are cumulative and multiple treatments are recommended. Illumicare Light Treatments are excellent for treating acne and hyper-pigmentation (or brown spots) as well as for improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Treatments take approximately thirty minutes. Results are dramatic, especially when combined with other condition specific skin care treatments.

Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion treatments are one of the most popular aesthetic procedures. They are easy and painless, with no down time. Tiny micro crystals are delivered to the skin to gently exfoliate the skin while simultaneously vacuuming away dead skin cells and impurities which clog pores, leaving skin softer, smoother, and clearer. You will experience improvement in sun damage, fine lines, uneven skin tone, acne, and acne scarring. Outcomes will vary depending on your skin type and condition. Treatments take approximately forty-five minutes. Typically, a series of treatments is required to reach your desired skin care goals. Microdermabrasion can be combined with other skin care therapies for improved results.

Acne Facial/Peels
Professional strength acne treatments are scientifically formulated to improve skin clarity and reduce acne blemishes while soothing redness and inflammation. This results-oriented facial combines exfoliating natural fruit enzymes, antioxidants, and hydrating agents to open clogged pores for deep cleansing and extraction without irritation. Treatments contain mild Alpha Hydroxy Acid peels which act as an antiseptic and are specifically customized for the individual patient needs.

Laser Hair Reduction
This safe and effective treatment utilizes the Dualis Fotona Twinlight Non-Ablative Laser. The laser transmits flashes of light through the skin, seeking out the hair follicle and causing it to heat up. This destroys the hair without causing any harm to the skin or body. You will feel a sensation of heat and a momentary feeling of a rubber band snapped against the skin. This feeling subsides almost immediately. Following the treatment you may experience redness and slight swelling at the treatment site, which will gradually subside. We perform laser hair reduction solely on the face and recommend up to five treatments for desired results.
