Diolaze by Inmode (Advanced Laser Hair Removal)
Diolaze is an advanced laser hair removal procedure that safely and gently eliminates unwanted hair. Diolaze has one of the largest treatment spot sizes, making treatments convenient and fast; as well as superior cooling which provides ultimate patient comfort during the procedure. As with all laser hair removal methods, Diolaze requires a series of treatments to achieve optimal results. Most patients undergo 6 treatments to see the best results, but the number of sessions may differ depending on your hair color, hair type, body area, and skin tone. Diolaze can be safely used in most areas of the body that have unwanted hair such as bikini, legs, arms, chest, back, armpits, neck, lip, and sideburns. Darker skin type patients may not be safe candidates for these procedures, and all patients who undergo treatment must not have had any significant sun exposure for 2 weeks prior to treatment nor have tanned skin including the use of self-tanning agents. Dr. Kodali or Dr. Blanco’s nurses perform this procedure on qualifying patients.
Lumecca by Inmode (Photofacial)
Lumecca is the most powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) to treat pigmented and vascular lesions. Lumecca operates using photothermolysis, which provides a photofacial through delivery of a comfortable light treatment. It improves the appearance of the skin including age spots, red\brown pigmentations, sun damage, vascular lesions such as spider veins, Rosacea and freckles. Lumecca is used on the parts of the body that are regularly exposed to the sun such as face, neck, chest, arms and hands. At least three treatments are recommended depending on the severity of skin damage. Dr. Kodali or Dr. Blanco’s nurses perform this procedure on qualifying patients.
Forma by Inmode (Fractional Thermal Skin Tightening for Face and Neck)
Forma is an FDA approved safe, gentle, and effective non-invasive radiofrequency treatment to promote the formation of new collagen and long-lasting skin tightening to the face and neck without downtime or pain. Unlike other skin-tightening procedures, Forma technology is designed with built-in safeguards that allow precise thermal temperatures for optimal skin contraction without the risk of overheating or cutaneous burns. During the treatment, you can expect a warming of your skin similar to a hot stone massage. Suitable for all skin types, there is no post-procedure care and individuals can expect only mild redness in the treatment areas that subsides within a few hours after treatment. After a series of 6-8 weekly sessions performed by our nurses, Forma rejuvenates the skin’s overall appearance with younger, smoother skin and improved skin elasticity, tone, and texture.
Forma PLUS by Inmode (Fractional Thermal Skin Tightening for Body)
Forma PLUS is an FDA approved safe, gentle, and effective non-invasive radiofrequency treatment to tone and reverse skin laxity caused by weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or general aging without downtime or pain. Forma PLUS body remodeling can be used on all body areas that patients desire treatment; popular areas include the arms, abdomen, thighs, knees, back, and chest. Unlike other skin-tightening procedures, Forma PLUS technology is designed with built-in safeguards that allow precise thermal temperatures for optimal skin contraction without the risk of overheating or cutaneous burns. During the treatment, you can expect a warming of your skin similar to a hot stone massage. Suitable for all skin types, there is no post-procedure care and individuals can expect only mild redness in the treatment areas that subsides within a few hours after treatment. After a series of 6-8 weekly sessions performed by our nurses, Forma PLUS treatments provide a smoother contour to your body and sagging skin will appear more toned.
Fractora is an FDA approved skin treatment that uses fractionated radiofrequency energy to resurface the face and neck (and can be used on other areas such as the hands and chest). Fractora treatments are ideal to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, tighten skin, decrease acne scars, and improve skin irregularities. This minimally invasive procedure uses thermally controlled radiofrequency and micro pins to target various layers of superficial and deep skin. Depending on your Fractora regimen and aggressiveness of treatment settings, you can expect to have 1-2 aggressive treatments or 3 moderate treatments performed by Dr. Kodali or Dr. Blanco, or a series of 4-6 mild treatments performed by the nurses. The actual treatments are based on the treatment goals you and the doctor establish during the consultation and depend on your downtime availability. Patients can expect post-procedure redness and swelling to last for 2-3 days after treatment and for the micro ablative injuries to the skin to undergo healing for up to two weeks. Some patients may experience prolonged erythema or redness and may take longer for the micro-injuries to completely heal. Your pre and post-procedure care guidelines will be discussed during your consultation.

BodyFX by Inmode (Body Contouring/Fat Reduction/Skin Tightening/Cellulite Reduction)
BodyFX is an FDA approved safe, gentle, and effective noninvasive treatment that provides a non- surgical alternative to liposuction. After a series of 6-8 weekly sessions performed by our nurses, BodyFX will reduce the appearance of dimpled skin (mild to moderate cellulite), improve skin elasticity and reshape the body through a long-lasting fat reduction in the treated areas. BodyFX uses a combination of different clinically proven modalities including radiofrequency, deep tissue heating, and suction coupled negative pressure to safely and comfortably achieve results. During treatment, you can expect a warming of your skin (like a deep tissue massage) and a gentle pulsing sensation as the radiofrequency and vacuum work to smooth out stubborn areas such as your abdomen, love handles, hips and thighs. The best results are seen in patients that are already within a few pounds of their ideal weight but have difficulty losing that last inch despite adequate diet and exercise. There is no post-procedure care, and individuals can expect only mild redness to the treated areas for 48 hours. Please schedule a consultation with our staff to see if you are a candidate for BodyFX.
