Dr. Griffin uses the Elite Plus™ to revitalize skin and remove hair, treat spider veins, and more!
Genetics only determine about 20 percent of the aging process, giving you the power to fight premature skin aging. Elite Plus™ treatments can help reverse the effects of sun and environmental skin damage to take years off your appearance. Laser skin revitalization uses the body’s healing process to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots and enlarged pores without damaging your skin.
Elite Plus is a dual-wavelength system delivering reliable, cost-effective treatments for hair removal, vascular treatments, epidermal pigment, and wrinkle reduction. This leaves your skin with a brighter and more even tone, and less unwanted hair.
With Elite Plus in Santa Barbara, we have the flexibility to customize treatments and encompass all skin types. Variable spot sizes and pulse durations make Elite Plus the natural choice to accommodate a range of specific skincare conditions. This treatment improves the appearance of leg veins, facial veins, broken capillaries, and pigmented lesions. It can also act as a powerful hair removal option.
During treatment, energy from the laser is easily absorbed, allowing us to selectively target and eliminate hyperpigmentation and unwanted hair without hurting the surrounding skin. As the energy is absorbed, the production of collagen is stimulated and begins to repair skin imperfections. The creation of new skin cells is also accelerated to replace old and damaged cells.
Elite Plus treatments are relatively comfortable. We do offer topical numbing cream if desired to make the treatment as comfortable as possible. Many patients feel a slight snapping like a rubber band as the treatment is being delivered. We also offer topical numbing to maximize relief. Following treatment you may feel some tenderness much like a sunburn which will dissipate with time. A typical treatment session takes about 15-20 minutes. You may need several treatments to achieve your most desirable results.

If you’ve ever cut yourself shaving, you know how vexing it is to remove unwanted hair. With laser hair removal, it possible to remove unwanted hair without damaging your skin. The Elite Plus™ uses advanced laser technology to permanently reduce hair by targeting hair cells.
Unlike shaving or waxing, the Elite Plus™ uses light-based technology to reach deep below the surface of the skin and target individual hair follicles. Its gentle pulses of light destroy the hair follicles and prevent hair from growing back. Approximately four to six sessions are usually needed to treat all of the follicles and permanently reduce unwanted hair. Laser hair removal treatments are recommended for all areas, including the face, arms, back, underarms, legs, chest, and bikini area.
Hair can only be removed when it is in an active growth stage, so multiple sessions will be needed to permanently reduce unwanted hair. Elite Plus™ laser hair removal treatments usually last less than 30 minutes. The side effects, including some redness and swelling, are less severe than the redness, itching and cuts that can occur from shaving or waxing. Most patients are able to resume their normal activities immediately following laser hair removal.

As we age, there are changes in the collagen of both the skin and the small capillaries, which may cause them to weaken and become more visible. Now with the Elite Plus we can quickly and easily treat these areas.
The Elite Plus laser also allows us to remove spider veins on the face. The hand piece delivers laser energy to the blood vessel, and hemoglobin absorbs the laser beam. This creates heat that destroys the blood vessel from the inside, causing it to disappear. We are often able to eliminate visibility of blood vessels at the time of treatment. Because the laser beam is so tiny, it leaves the surrounding tissue unaffected.
Broken Capillary treatments usually last less than 30 minutes. Depending on the patient’s condition, multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve the best outcomes. The most common side effects include some temporary redness and warmth at the treatment site. Most people are able to resume their normal activities immediately following treatment.
