MILAN LASER HAIR REMOVAL Colleen Papek, President What are the benefits of laser hair removal as a beauty treatment? Honestly, there are so many! Aside from getting rid of your unwanted hair for good, laser hair removal can help with skin imperfections such as discoloration, ingrown hairs and clogged pores that can cause “strawberry legs.” And instead of dealing with razor burn and nicks from shaving, you can have smooth, hair-free skin. The average Milan client is over 95% hair-free within seven to 10 treatments!
Who can get laser hair removal? This is the best part: Everyone can get laser hair removal! There’s an outdated belief that only women get laser hair removal and that it only works on light skin and dark hair. But laser hair removal is safe and effective for all skin tones if the correct technology is used. Milan uses the Candela GentleMax Pro, which contains two separate laser technologies – Nd:YAG and Alexandrite. The Alexandrite is used for lighter skin tones, while the Nd:YAG is used for brown skin tones. More men are also choosing to get laser hair removal. The most popular body areas for men to get treated are their backs, faces, shoulders and chests, just to name a few.
Why should you choose Milan over other laser hair removal companies? Milan is the No. 1 laser hair removal company in the country for a reason – we provide real, permanent results for life. Clients can feel confident knowing they can come back for touch-ups without any additional charges should any unwanted hair grow down the road, thanks to our exclusive Unlimited Package. Additionally, Milan is overseen by medical professionals, and laser hair removal is all we do, so treatments are performed safely and effectively by true experts in the field.

ILLUME COSMETIC SURGERY & MEDSPA Women’s Sexual Wellness O-Shot What is the Sexual Wellness O-Shot for women? Many women struggle with or desire an enhanced intimate experience. The O-Shot is a nonsurgical sexual wellness injection to increase sensitivity and stimulation using plateletrich-plasma (PRP). The nutrient-rich platelets (drawn from your blood) promote the growth of new cells and increase blood flow to the vaginal and clitoral areas.
Am I a candidate for the O-shot? You may be a candidate if you are experiencing pain during intercourse, an overactive bladder, urinary incontinence, low sex drive, vaginal atrophy, dryness or laxity.
How does the procedure work? Topical numbing cream and lidocaine injections help eliminate pain and make the procedure tolerable. Your registered nurse injector will then draw your blood, put it in a centrifuge to isolate the PRP, and prepare it for injection while you are numbing. You can expect your O-shot appointment to last about an hour, but the procedure itself takes minutes. The O-Shot requires zero downtime. Patients can experience heightened sexual sensation and sexual arousal in as little as three to seven days after their procedure. Full effects may take up to three months, depending on the individual.
How long do results last? Results can generally last up to a year or more. Patients can receive more than one treatment. Waiting for a minimum of eight weeks between treatments is recommended. Our consultations are complimentary. At Illume Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa, we offer experienced, O-Shot certified Registered Nurse Injectors that will go over the procedure with you in full detail and answer any questions you may have. Since our board-certified plastic surgeons are on site at all times, you can be sure your injections are being administered in the safest manner possible.
