Laser Treatments
What are Spectrum Laser/IPL treatments?
Laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments can alleviate multiple dermatologic conditions. The Spectrum delivers wavelength specific pulses of energy to the desired treatment area. Discomfort is minimal and is usually compared to the “snap of a rubber band”. Multiple treatments may be required to achieve your desired result.
The Spectrum Laser is safe, effective, and can be applied to most skin types.
The Spectrum Laser can provide the following treatments:
Hair Removal Treatment
Erbium Yag Skin Resurfacing
Long Pulsed Yag Vascular Reduction
Tattoo Removal Treatments
IPL Treatments
Goodbye acne, age spots, and broken blood vessels!
The Spectrum’s IPL can be used for a variety of different treatments including acne reduction, removal of vascular and pigmented lesions. Over time, the outer skin can become discolored with pigmented lesions (brown spots) and broken blood vessels. The Spectrum Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) targets and removes these unsightly blemishes leaving behind a blemish-free appearance. The treatments are non-ablative and gentle by nature, making it a patient favorite. The Spectrum IPL performance provides efficacy and versatility leaving patients with healthy, youthful skin.

Hair Removal Treatment
Hair today, gone tomorrow.
Unwanted body hair is a problem that everyone experiences. The Spectrum diode laser will reduce and may permanently remove unsightly body hair. Melanin gives our hair color and is what the laser light targets to destroy the hair follicles in the active growth stage. It is safe to use on all skin colors and will leave the treatment area “Hair Free”.

Erbium Yag Skin Resurfacing
Get rid of fine lines in no time.
The Erbium Yag laser uses a less invasive approach for treating superficial wrinkles and sun-damaged skin. Erbium is the ideal treatment for patients wanting to achieve dramatic improvement in the appearance of their skin with minimal downtime. The procedure removes surface-pigmentation and mild to moderate fine lines and wrinkles on the face, hands, neck, and chest. This treatment is gentle and safe, and can be used with minimal risk.

Long Pulsed Yag Vascular Reduction
Why suffer from unsightly veins?
The Spectrum’s long pulsed Yag laser will diminish the appearance of existing veins on the face and legs. Once the laser light is applied to the skin, it enters into the vein, where the energy from the laser is absorbed and the vein walls collapse and seal shut, eliminating the vein’s appearance on the skin. Eliminating veins with the long pulsed Yag laser is quick and effective.

Tattoo Removal Treatments
Mistakes can be corrected with the Spectrum Laser.
For multiple reasons, body art may become undesirable. The Spectrum laser uses “Gold Standard” Q-Switched technology to remove unwanted tattoos. The dual wavelength laser targets specific ink colors. The tattoo ink is then broken down into tiny particles that are small enough so that the body’s own natural immune system can flush them away.

Recovery
Depending on the area treated, some swelling and irritation may occur. However, the majority of treatments have little to no down time and few side effects. Avoid sunlight and use sunscreen or antibiotic ointments to promote healing and prevent damage. Anti-aging skin care products may be prescribed by your doctor. If a scab forms, it should not be picked at or scarring may occur. For best results, follow Dr. Camden’s instructions after treatment.

PIXEL8-RF Microneedling Therapy
When sun, stress, and age start to rob your skin of silky-smooth texture, supple tone, and dramatic contours, you instinctively go on the offensive.
Maybe you’ve tried every product out there to soften laugh lines that make you look older than you are. Or wondered for years how to get rid of wrinkles on forehead skin that make you look angry when you’re not. Maybe you’re still doing turkey neck exercises – to no avail. Or seeking a saggy jowl treatment that actually works.
Your search ends at Health Link Medical Group.
We’ve spent over a decade researching how to remove wrinkles under eyes, under lips, under chins, and even how to get rid of deep acne scars – without relying on outdated technology. Our solution? Pixel8 RF Micro-Needling.
This minimally invasive heat therapy is delivered using a Rohrer Aesthetics device, which sports gold plated electrodes, single-use, medically sterilized tips, and customized penetration depth for your unique skin type and imperfection.
This robust collagen induction therapy is “color blind”, so it’s safe for all skin types. And, it allows us to deliver energy to 3 layers of your tissue: epidermal, dermal and sub-dermal, to stimulate fresh collagen production in your damaged skin.
All with minimal discomfort and downtime.
What can PIXEL8-RF do for me?
Many of our patients have spent years trying to figure out how to get rid of large pores. When your sebaceous glands produce too much oil, your pores expand to accommodate it. Once our clinically-validated, FDA approved therapy regenerates collagen, they will tighten up again. We also deliver Pixel8 for:
smoothing of fine lines & mouth wrinkles
eye lifting
brow lifting
jowl lifting
hand rejuvenation
burn & acne scar treatment
stretch mark smoothing
vascular lesion resolution
hyperpigmentation clearing
Your HLMG Pixel8 RF Microneedling Session
Our team will customize your treatment by using both insulated needles (to deliver energy to your top skin layer) and non-insulated needles (to penetrate your sub-dermal tissue).
This means minimal risk of PIH (post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation) which is common with older lasers that don’t allow such precise control and absorption predictability.
When we gently apply the micro-needle cartridge to your damaged areas, RF energy will penetrate your skin with minimal discomfort. We’re able to control penetration in 0.1 mm increments – from 0.5 mm to 3.5 – according to your skin’s needs.
While the energy stimulates fresh collagen production, our Arctic Chill setting will be cooling your skin for maximum comfort throughout your session.
To accelerate your collagen building we may enhance your microneedling with:
PRP: platelet-rich plasma, or “liquid gold,” derived from your blood to deliver growth factors that stimulate regeneration
BBL treatments: our broadband light has been shown to change aging gene expression
Topical agents: thermal needling creates microchannels that stay open for up to 6 hours, enhancing uptake of anti-aging products like DefenAge and 8-in-1 BioSerum
You may not be an ideal candidate for Pixel8 if you: are pregnant; have psoriasis, eczema, or open wounds; have a history of skin scars; or if you’ve recently had radiation therapy.
Your After Care
Your treatment session will take about an hour. For 3-4 hours afterwards, you may feel some:
swelling and redness
facial hair loss
scabbing
If a scab forms, keep it moist to promote healing. Call us right away if you experience these rare, but serious complications:
bleeding
bruising
infection
Depending on your skin and treatment goals, you’ll need at least 4-5 sessions at intervals of 3-4 weeks.
