FAQs

Fractional Skin Resurfacing

What is Fractional Resurfacing?

Fractional Resurfacing is a treatment method that removes specific columns of skin in a treatment area to reveal refreshed skin. Surrounding areas of skin are left untreated and protected. This also encourages collagen production in deep layers of the skin.

Fractional Resurfacing can be used to reduce the appearance of a variety of concerns, such as:

Aging skin
Pigmentation irregularities
Sagging skin
Scars
Sun damage
Uneven texture
Warts
Wrinkles

This treatment delivers laser light energy in scanning patterns to address a range of blemishes.

What is Erbium Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Erbium Laser Skin Resurfacing is a fractional skin resurfacing treatment option that removes outer layers of the skin to uncover refreshed skin. It also promotes collagen remodeling, stimulating your body’s processes to form the important tissues that provide your skin with structure.

Erbium laser skin resurfacing can be used to treat surface-level conditions like:

Age spots
Fine lines
Skin laxity
Wrinkles

This particular treatment option can be used for the safe and effective treatment of concerns on a variety of skin tones and types.

What could I expect from a procedure?

Fractional Skin Resurfacing treatments are performed in the comfort of our Bastrop office. The length of treatment is relatively short, and there is little to no pain associated with the treatment experience. During treatment, laser light is applied to the treatment area and specific layers of skin are meticulously removed, revealing refreshed skin.

Laser Hair Removal

What do the treatments feel like?

The integrated chiller cools and soothes the skin as the hand piece moves along your skin. When the laser pulse is delivered, some patients experience a mild pinching or stinging sensation. No local anesthesia or pain medication is typically required; however some patients may prefer to use a topical anesthetic when sensitive areas are treated.

How many treatments will I need?

Most areas require 3-6 treatments. However, the number of laser treatments required for optimal long-term benefits depends on multiple factors – hair thickness, the area treated and your hair’s growth cycle. Interestingly, not all hairs are actively growing at the same time and actually go through three distinct phases: growth, regression, and resting. Laser treatments work by disabling the hair that is principally in the active growth phase at the time of treatment. Since other hairs will enter this active growth phase at different times, additional treatments may be necessary to disable all of the hair follicles in a given area.

What happens after the treatment?

Immediately following your laser treatment, the area may appear a bit red and swollen. Three to seven days after treatment you may experience what seems to be regrowth of hair. Actually, most of these hairs are being shed as a result of your treatment and are not re-growing. Between treatments you should not wax or pluck your hair, but it is permissible to shave.

Are there any side effects?

Although patients experience few side effects, the most commonly noticed are slight reddening and local swelling of the skin, similar to a sunburn. These effects typically last for several hours or less. In rare instances, blistering may occur.

How does laser compare with electrolysis?

Electrolysis is a tedious, invasive, and painful process that involves inserting a needle into each individual hair follicle and delivering an electrical charge to them one at a time. Electrolysis often requires years of treatments at regular intervals. By delivering light energy to hundreds of hair follicles at a time, laser effectively treats an area in just seconds that would take over an hour with electrolysis.

Vascular Treatments

Revitalize Your Legs with Laser Leg Vein Removal

Unlike surgery that leaves scars, laser leg vein removal uses laser light to constrict blood vessels in the legs, causing the veins to visibly disappear. It’s a simple, clinically proven procedure for reducing the appearance of spider veins on your legs that gets you back on your feet quickly - and gets your legs back to their youthful appearance with ease.

Laser treatment for leg veins minimizes the appearance of:

Leg veins
Spider veins on the leg
Reticular veins (bluish-colored)

Rely on laser leg vein treatment for:

Excellent results for spider and reticular veins
Noninvasive vein treatment for leg veins
Short procedure time (often less than 30 minutes)
Minimal side effects and no downtime

Fast, Easy, and Comfortable Face Vessel Treatments

Many different vascular imperfections can appear on your face, preventing you from looking and feeling your best. Laser or Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) vessel treatment gives you one convenient solution to treat them all - quickly and with minimal discomfort and no downtime.

Pulses of light target and erase broken vessels at the surface of your skin without harming surrounding tissue. As a result, you enjoy clearer skin that looks younger and fresher.

Laser or IPL Vessel treatment can erase:

Spider veins
Broken vessels
Telangiectasias

Light-Based Rosacea Treatment

Rash, redness, and flushing
Acne-like papules, pustules, and patches
Rosacea swelling, inflammation, and discomfort

Rosacea treatments use pulses of light to target and treat the blood vessels responsible for the chronic redness that appears on your skin. Once the vessels responsible for the rosacea are treated, the redness and rash can disappear. Best of all, rosacea treatment can provide skin tone improvement by diminishing the appearance of broken blood vessels and acne-like breakouts associated with this common skin condition.

Oral medication and antibiotics for rosacea treatment can have systemic side effects and can take weeks to be effective. Medication-based treatments can also be dangerous for women who are pregnant or nursing. Light-based treatment for rosacea is a targeted remedy that affects only the blood vessels without harming healthy skin, so it may be a good alternative to creams and oral medications.

It also works quickly - sessions may take less than 30 minutes and you may see visible improvement after your very first treatment.

Evolve Total Body Transformation

How does it work?

Treatments are performed through the specialized Evolve applicators that are placed over the targeted area where the technology works to emit radiofrequency waves. The energy waves are delivered deep within tissue to the targeted fat layer, while the closed-loop temperature provides a feedback mechanism for temperature control. This allows treatments to deliver the necessary heat for destroying unwanted fat while maintaining a safe and comfortable temperature to the surrounding tissue.

HA Fillers

What is Hyaluronic Acid (HA)?

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the skin that attracts moisture and helps keep it hydrated, plump, and elastic. HA fillers mimic this substance to restore volume and reduce wrinkles.

How long do the results last?

Juvederm: 6 - 18 months depending on the product and treatment area.
Restylane: 6 - 18 months depending on the formulation and placement.
Longevity varies based on metabolism, area treated, and injection technique.

Are the injections painful?

Most formulations include lidocaine, a local anesthetic, to minimize discomfort. Topical numbing agents may also be used before treatment.

What is the downtime after treatment?

Minimal downtime. Mild swelling, bruising, redness, or tenderness may occur and usually resolve within a few days.

Can the filler be dissolved if I don't like the results?

Yes. HA fillers can be reversed with hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down HA.

Who is a good candidate?

Adults over 21 who are healthy, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and looking for non-surgical facial enhancement or volume restoration.

Are there any side effects or risks?

Common side effects include:

Swelling
Bruising
Redness
Lumps

Rare complications include infection, vascular occlusion, or allergic reaction. Always choose a qualified injector.

What areas can be treated with HA fillers?

Lips
Cheeks
Under-eye hollows (tear troughs)
Nasolabial folds
Marionette lines
Chin and jawline
Hands (for volume restoration)

Sculptra

How does Sculptra work?

Sculptra stimulates your body’s natural collagen production. After injection, the PLLA particles act as a scaffold, encouraging fibroblasts to generate new collagen, leading to smoother, firmer skin over time.

When will I see results?

Results are gradual, typically becoming noticeable within 4 to 6 weeks after the first session. Full improvement is usually seen after a series of treatments over a few months.

How long do the results last?

Sculptra can last up to 2 years or more after the final treatment session, making it one of the longest-lasting injectables.

How many sessions do I need?

Most patients require 2 to 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, though the number may vary depending on age, volume loss, and desired outcome.

Is Sculptra safe?

Yes, it is FDA-approved and has been used worldwide for decades. Side effects are usually mild and include swelling, redness, bruising, or small nodules that typically resolve on their own.

Can I combine Sculptra with other treatments?

Yes. Many providers combine Sculptra with other treatments like HA fillers, Botox, or microneedling for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. However, proper timing and planning are important.

Is there downtime after treatment?

Minimal. Most patients can resume normal activities the same day. Some swelling or tenderness may occur but generally subsides in a few days.

Who is a good candidate for Sculptra?

Adults with moderate to severe facial volume loss or those seeking long-term, natural-looking facial rejuvenation are good candidates. It’s not ideal for those needing instant results or those with autoimmune conditions (consultation required).

Sclerotherapy

What types of veins can be treated with sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is most effective for:

Spider veins (small, red/purple vessels close to the skin)
Reticular veins (blue-green veins under the skin)
Small varicose veins

Larger varicose veins may require other treatments like EVLT or surgical stripping.

Is the procedure painful?

Discomfort is usually minimal. Patients may feel a mild burning or cramping during the injection, but the solution is generally well tolerated. Some sclerosants (like polidocanol) are especially gentle.

How long does the procedure take?

A session typically lasts 15 to 45 minutes, depending on the number of veins being treated. Multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results.

When will I see results?

Spider veins: Begin to fade in 3 to 6 weeks
Larger veins: May take 3 to 4 months
Full clearance may require more than one treatment session.

Is there downtime after treatment?

There is little to no downtime. Patients can walk immediately after the procedure and are encouraged to do so. Compression stockings are typically recommended for several days to 2 weeks post-treatment.

Are there any side effects?

Common side effects include:

Mild swelling, redness, or bruising
Temporary brown pigmentation or matting (fine red vessels)
Itching or soreness

Rare but serious risks: blood clots, allergic reaction, skin ulceration.

Can I return to work or exercise afterward?

Yes, most daily activities can be resumed the same day. However, strenuous exercise and hot baths/saunas should be avoided for at least 48 hours.

Who is not a candidate for sclerotherapy?

It may not be suitable for:

Pregnant women
Patients with active blood clots or deep vein thrombosis
Individuals allergic to the sclerosant

LiquiVida IV Nutrition

What are the benefits of IV therapy?

Taking oral vitamins can only lead to a 30 percent absorption rate, which isn’t ideal for individuals who aren’t getting enough vitamins as it is. However, IV Therapy allows nutrients to be rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream for maximum benefits.

Are there any side effects?

There are no major side effects to the treatment. Some people experience a cool feeling in the arm or a mineral taste in the mouth, but this is all normal.

HydraFacial MD

What is It?

HydraFacial MD is a safe and effective skincare treatment to address multiple skin concerns for most skin tones and types. This non-surgical, non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment can be used to address a variety of skincare concerns, such as:

Blemishes
Dehydrated skin
Dry skin
Fine lines
Oily or congested skin
Redness
Sun damage
Uneven skin tone
Wrinkles

What could I expect from this procedure?

HydraFacial MD treatment sessions include four basic steps:

Cleansing and exfoliation
Gentle chemical peel
Vacuum extractions
Instant hydration

Treatment begins with a gentle exfoliation to remove excess dead skin cells while simultaneously delivering a powerful cleansing serum to your skin, preparing your skin for the rest of treatment. A solution of low percentage glycolic and salicylic acids – similar to those used for chemical peels – is applied to encourage the removal of impurities in the pores. This solution does not stimulate any peeling of your skin.

Impurities and debris are then removed via gentle vacuum extractions. There is no pinching or poking with this mild suction method. Once skin has been deeply cleaned and exfoliated, powerful hydration is introduced to the skin with antioxidants and peptides for optimal skin health. Treatment can be customized to address specific concerns by adding special serums.

HydraFacial MD treatment sessions are relatively short, and they are completed in the comfort of our Texas office. There is no set downtime associated with a procedure, and you should be able to return to your normal activities. While results will vary for each person, you should be able to enjoy your results immediately, and they may last for up to a week.

Who is an ideal candidate?

One of the most appealing benefits of the HydraFacial MD is it is safe and effective for nearly all skin tones and types! Most healthy adults are able to enjoy the benefits of this powerful non-surgical, non-invasive treatment option.

A consultation with our team in Texas can help determine if this is the best skincare treatment for you. As the best results are typically achieved through a series of treatments, they can also help you develop a treatment plan.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

Procedure

PRP can be delivered to the area to be treated in many different ways and using different techniques. It depends mainly on the area, the type of problem being treated and if it is being used in combination with other treatments.

At Soulage Wellness and Aesthethic Center, we have found the combination with Fractional Skin resurfacing or Dermapen microneedling gives superb results. Not only it enhances dramatically results but also speeds the recovery time from these treatments.

In either situation the procedure can be completed in under one hour. We invite you to come and visit us and learn more about this exciting revolutionary treatment that is Platelet Rich Plasma.

What conditions make me not a good candidate?

Platelet dysfunction conditions
Very low platelets
Local infection in the area to be treated

What conditions can be relative contraindications?

Corticosteroid injection at treatment site (1 month)
Systemic use of corticosteroids (2weeks)
Cancers
Hemoglobin levels under 10 g/dl or Platelet Counts under 150,000 per uL

Chemical Peels

Are they safe?

Chemical peels are a popular choice for people wanting effective results for fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin pigmentation, acne scarring and skin rejuvenation. Before deciding on a chemical peel, however, many patients have questions ranging from whether it is a safe procedure to what, exactly, is a chemical peel? Just as in most medical procedures, chemical peels do have some slight risks. While chemical peels rarely result in serious complications and are considered extremely safe, some patients may experience swelling, scarring, numbness, infection and changes in skin tone. It is always recommended to have your chemical peel procedure performed by an experienced provider.

To help in healing after a chemical peel procedure, you may be advised to avoid sun exposure for several months. This will help protect your newly forming layers of skin.

After your chemical peel, you may experience temporary flaking, scaling, redness or dryness on the treated areas. As your skin adjusts to treatment, these conditions will be alleviated. It is essential that you follow your doctor’s post-procedure instructions to alleviate and minimize any after effects.

What type of chemical peels are available?

Chemical peels are administered for a wide variety of skin problems. If you have uneven pigmentation, your chemical peel treatment would differ from someone who wanted to remove blemishes or wrinkles. The VI Peel TM offers a safe, effective approach to achieving younger looking skin and provides superior results for all Fitzpatrick skin types. Two to four peels per year, along with proper home care, reverses sun damage, treats hyperpigmentation including melasma, acne and acne scarring, aging skin and rosacea.
