About Patient Portal Physician Referral Blog Skin Store 913-663-3838 Bill Pay Light-Emitting Diode (LED) Therapy Blue light photodynamic therapy offers effective, non-invasive, and pain-free treatment for mild to moderate acne — a condition that currently affects millions of adults, teens and children. A narrow band of blue light works to kill off acne bacteria in your skin. Blue light treatments can either be used as a primary treatment, an alternative to pharmaceuticals and topicals, or an adjunct to skin care programs. Unlike other topical treatments, treatments with blue light have shown minimal adverse side effects or patient discomfort following treatment. Blue light treatments are mostly gentle, and do not harm surrounding tissue. Patients who receive blue light therapy will sit in front of the blue light delivery system for about sixteen minutes. Treatments are spaced at weekly intervals, and the number of treatments, the duration of treatment times, and treatment interval may vary with the severity of a patient’s acne. Light therapy may also be used to treat inflammation, to stimulate collagen production and to increase lymphatic drainage.

About Patient Portal Physician Referral Blog Skin Store 913-663-3838 Bill Pay Mendalyn, Smartlipo Patient June 10, 2020/in Testimonial /by Monarch Plastic Surgery “Dr. Hodge is amazing. I had a fantastic first consultation where I was informed about everything concerning my smartlipo procedure. Dr. Hodge and his staff answered every question. The day of my procedure everything went perfectly. I healed exactly as he said I would and followed his aftercare instructions to achieve the best results. Numbing and swelling have gone down almost entirely within three months. I was concerned about “lumpy” scar tissue appearing post-surgery, but massaging it while applying moderate pressure has made it completely smooth out.” Share this entry About Us Careers Contact Us LEAWOOD Plastic Surgery 913-663-3838 Skin Rejuvenation 913-317-9386 NORTH KC Plastic Surgery 816-436-3262 Skin Rejuvenation 816-436-3262 LEE’S SUMMIT Plastic Surgery 913-663-3838 Monarch Plastic Surgery © 2021 Privacy Policy
