Portrait® Skin Regeneration

Smoothes away wrinkles and enhances skin tone and texture.

A new dramatically different, clinically proven treatment.

PortraitR skin regeneration is unlike any other treatment available today. It is the first and only technology proven to deliver true skin regeneration. While some treatments lead to improved skin only at the surface, clinically proven PortraitR alters structures

below the surface, creating unique conditions for continuing regeneration and improvements in wrinkles, tone, texture and discoloration. During the short procedure, the unique scientific action of PortraitR transfers plasma energy to the treated area without direct contact to the skin. This technique preserves the skin’s outer layers which act as a protective dressing until new skin regenerates. Downtime is minimal and clinical studies show that the improvements you see following your treatment will become even more dramatic over time.

True skin regeneration for smoother, more beautiful skin.

PortraitR skin regeneration begins with a simple procedure that takes 45 minutes for a full face treatment. Shortly after, you will see improvements in your skin texture and tone and diminished wrinkles giving you a new, more vibrant and youthful appearance. Over time you will see continuing improvement that is truly unique. Working below the surface of the skin, PortraitR creates the right conditions and natural

growth factors for generating new skin and creating new collagen for continuous improvement in wrinkles, tone and texture. Clinical studies show continued improvements for as long as a year after treatment. And, PortraitR is safe and effective. It gives you the results you want without the lengthy downtime or the risks associated with other treatments.

What makes PortraitR different from other available treatments?

The ground-breaking science behind PortraitR makes it different from other treatments in several important ways. PortraitR is the first and only treatment clinically proven to regenerate skin. Its unique energy-transferring mechanism initiates regeneration deep below the skin’s surface, remodeling the skin’s architecture. This creates dramatic results that improve over time as the new architecture progressively replaces the old.

What kind of improvements can I expect to see?

You will see improvements in skin texture, tone and reduction of fine wrinkles at lower levels of treatment and reduction of deep wrinkles at higher levels of treatment. New healthier collagen growth will improve contours and enhance your overall appearance.

What does the procedure feel like and how long does it take?

You may experience a localized sensation of heat during the brief procedure. A topical anesthetic is generally applied before the procedure, although your physician may recommend other approaches depending upon your specific needs. A full face treatment usually takes 45 minutes.

How many treatments do I need?

Your physician will recommend an appropriate treatment regimen for you. Typically this will vary from 1 to 4 treatments depending upon the desired outcome, your skin condition and the level of improvement you are seeking relative to downtime. It usually takes from one or two days to just over a week for your skin to appear normal with or without makeup.

How does it work?

The innovative PortraitR technology transfers nitrogen plasma energy to the architecture of the skin using a non-contact technique producing controlled, uniform regeneration of your skin.

What should I expect following treatment?

At lower levels of treatment there will be some mild redness and flaking of the skin. At higher levels, the outer layer of skin browns and is shed 3 to 5 days after treatment. Once this occurs, the redness of the regenerated skin will last for 2-3 days. Shedding may take a little longer at the edges of the treated area. Localized redness may also linger slightly in some patients. On darker skin, the localized redness may appear as a darker spot that lightens over time.

How soon will I see a difference and how long will it last?

You will see results soon after your treatment. However, one of the most striking and unique advantages of PortraitR is that it stimulates a natural process of regeneration, producing results that progressively improve over time. Clinical studies show that this improvement progression continues for at least one year after treatment. Patients are amazed when they compare their appearances before treatment and twelve months later.

Is the PortraitR procedure safe?

PortraitR has demonstrated an excellent safety profile in clinical studies. It has not shown protracted periods of downtime, scarring, hypopigmentation, or prolonged hyperpigmentation associated with other light or ablative laser treatments. It is also far easier to use and control than messy chemical peeling agents.

Can PortraitR be used with other treatments?

Your physician will advise you on the best way to combine treatments such as BotoxR or dermal fillers. If you have had other procedures within the last 12 months you should discuss the timing of your PortraitR procedure with your physician.
