As a nurse working in healthcare I know firsthand how important the relationship is between a healthcare provider and their patient. Dr. Seeley goes above and beyond to ensure both the patient and their families feel comfortable and that their needs are being met. Dr. Seeley is an immensely skilled physician that I recommend to my family, friends and patients in need of ENT services, cosmetic or otherwise. I feel blessed that I found Dr. Seeley, he is truly the BEST!!

After years of dealing with congestion I finally made an appointment with Dr. Seeley in May. He was kind, friendly and knowledgeable from the minute I met him. In September Dr. Seeley and his team preformed the balloon sinuplasty procedure on me, which has been successful! Even though I struggled a bit with the procedure, they were so gentle and kind throughout. Follow ups have been great and quick and the whole team is friendly and nice. I actually enjoy coming in to my appointments! Thank you Dr. Seeley and team!!

My experience going to see Dr. Brook Seeley and getting a procedure was honestly the best experience I’ve ever had! From his staff at the desk, to Kim the coordinator, all the way up to Dr. Seelwy himself, I had a great experience even though I was so nervous and not knowing what to expect. He was so beyond professional, kind, friendly, and took all the time in the world to explain everything step by step, answering each and every one of my questions, and not pushing me to get the procedure or any of that fluff that other doctors do. It was an amazing experience. Thank you Dr. Seeley.

Lumenis Laser – Non-Ablative Laser Treatments in Farmington & Hartford County

We use the Lumenis Laser device for all laser treatments performed at Connecticut Facial Plastic Surgery. This device was carefully selected for our practice because of its versatility, safety, and effective results.

This laser device is non-ablative, which means that it does not remove layers of skin. This unique laser works under the skin and provides for less invasive treatment, offering a shorter, easier recovery period compared to ablative lasers. If you’re put off by what you’ve heard about recovery after a laser treatment, you’re likely thinking of traditional, ablative lasers. However, the Lumenis Laser is much gentler, and patients find the recovery is quick and easy.

We use the Lumenis device to address the following:

The Best Laser Hair Removal in Farmington & Hartford, CT

Unwanted facial hair is a common problem. Waxing and tweezing can remove it temporarily, but many patients are looking for a longer-lasting solution to unwanted hair. We offer the best laser hair removal using the Lumenis Light Sheer laser. This technology targets the pigment at the hair follicle and inhibits regrowth. A series of laser hair removal treatments will significantly reduce the amount of unwanted hair and works best with dark hair and lighter skin.

Most patients will require about six sessions for effective laser hair removal. Some regrowth can occur after treatment, but it is much lighter, finer, and less abundant.

Hyperpigmentation IPL Laser Treatment

Although hyperpigmentation can be treated using several laser technologies, our go-to pick is often IPL laser treatment. This treatment targets pigment in discolored areas, breaking it down and bringing it to the skin’s surface. Spots darken temporarily and, in a few days, slough off.

We love that IPL is gentle, requiring no downtime after treatment. Redness is common and lasts for a couple of days but is easily covered with makeup. The Nd: YAG laser, which is a pulsed and Q-switched laser technology, can also treat pigmentation problems.

Veins and Redness: How Laser Treatment Can Help

Veins, redness, and other vascular conditions can be treated with our long pulse Nd: YAG laser treatment. This laser heats the tissues deep within the skin, changing the vascular structure of unwanted veins, lesions, and other cosmetic skin problems.

We can use our Nd: YAG laser on all skin types and colors, including dark skin, which results in excellent outcomes with minimal downtime. IPL laser treatment may be recommended for some patients with veins and redness.

Connecticut Laser Skin Treatments FAQs

On average, our laser skin rejuvenation in Farmington or Hartford takes 10 minutes or less. However, factors like the size of the treatment area and which procedure you choose affect the duration of the process. It’s rare for a treatment to take more than half an hour.

Although there may be some mild discomfort, much like the snap of a rubber band against your skin, our Lumenis skin rejuvenation in Farmington is highly tolerable.

Though results can vary, most of our laser hair removal patients in Hartford see a long-term improvement in unwanted hair after an average of three to seven sessions. You may come back for occasional touch-up laser treatments to maintain your results after completing your initial series of hair removal appointments.

Because variables like the size of the treatment area, the number of sessions, and the severity of skin concerns vary, it’s impossible to give an accurate estimate without a consultation. For a detailed breakdown of the cost of your customized Connecticut laser skin treatment, schedule a consultation today.

People choose laser treatments for various reasons, including reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture and tone, treating hyperpigmentation and sun damage, and addressing vascular concerns like visible veins and redness.

While laser treatments are generally safe, some potential risks include temporary redness, swelling, and discomfort at the treatment site. Rare complications can include changes in skin pigmentation, scarring, and infection. Our team ensures the highest safety standards to minimize these risks.

The duration of a laser treatment session varies depending on the area being treated and the specific concerns addressed. Generally, sessions can range from 15 minutes to an hour.

Recovery after non-ablative laser treatment, like those performed with our Lumenis Laser device, is typically quick and easy. Patients may experience mild redness and swelling for a few days but can usually return to normal activities immediately. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.

During the healing process, it’s important to follow the aftercare instructions provided by our team. This may include avoiding sun exposure, using specific skin care products, and keeping the treated area clean. Most patients notice improvements in their skin within a few weeks of treatment.
