News Times Newspapers, Friday, March 27, 2015 IS TREATMENT SAFE?
HOW DO PHAROS EX-308 EXCIMER LASERS WORK?
The PHAROS EX-308 excimer laser creates a concentrated, but painless, beam of ultraviolet light that is delivered to psoriatic plaques through a handpiece that rests directly on the skin. By precisely targeting only specific plaques without exposing healthy skin, the laser safely delivers high-dose treatment for fast clearing and long remission.
WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR TREATMENT?
The laser 18 is ideal for treating mild to moderate psoriasis. Traditionally hard-to-treat areas such as knees, elbows, and scalp are easily treated, thanks to the laser’s aiming beam and adjustable spot size handpiece. The targeted high-dose therapy can effectively treat stubborn plaques, even those that have not responded to other treatments. Ask your doctor if laser treatment is right for you.
HOW DOES TREATMENT COMPARE WITH OTHER PSORIASIS TREATMENTS ?
Unlike topical creams, treatment with the laser does not require any daily maintenance. Each patient is unique, but many patients enjoy several months of treatment free remission after completing their laser sessions.
The laser may have fewer shortcomings than many common psoriasis treamtments. Due to the targeted nature of laser therapy, ultraviolet light exposure to the healthy skin in limited. This may reduce the risk of premature skin aging that is often associated with booth phototherapy. There is no thinning of the skin, easy bruising or stretchmarks often caused by steroids, nor any of the systemic side effects caused by some oral medications.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING TREATMENT?
Treatment will take place in your doctor’s office. First, your doctor will determine the best dosage. level for you. then, the doctor will place the handpiece directly on the plaques and apply the laser therapy. You will hear a gentle hum and see a blue colored light from the handpiece tip. Most treatments take only a few minutes.
DOES THE TREATMENT HURT ?
No. Most patients experience no pain or discomfort. a few patients may feel slight warmth shortly after treatment. this warmth is mild and short-lived. No anesthesia is needed.
HOW MANY TREATMENT SESSIONS WILL I NEED?
Your doctor will create a customized course of therapy for you based upon the extent, thickness, and location of the lesions. Many patients enjoy clearing after 10 or fewer sessions.
HOW DO I PREPARE FOR TREATMENT?
No extensive preparation is required for laser therapy. Just ensure that the skin to be treated is clean dry, and free of any make-up, lotion, or creams containing SPF protection.
ARE THERE SIDE EFFECTS ?
the side effects of laser therapy are minimal. Most patients report no side effects. A few patients have reported a mild and short-lived redness at the lesion site. More serious side effects such as blistering and hyper-pigmentation are rare and short-lived.
ARE LASER TREATMENTS COVERED BY INSURANCE ?
Many national, state, and local insurance companies cover the laser treatment, but coverage levels will vary by plan. Talk to you doctor’s billing staff for details about your insurance coverage.
PHAROS EX-408 excimer laser treatments are painless and take only a few minutes. Equally important, many patents need only about 4 to 6 weeks of treatments, as opposed to 30 or more phototherapy booth sessions.

How to rediscover yourself ….
3 women made it their mission, and created the New Prism Med Spa in Roslyn.

Massage Therapy Key to a Well-Balanced Lifestyle
Tension and stress are almost inevitable in our lives. While many people believe they occur from a change, conflict or illness, they fail to realize that life events can lead to these negative health issues. As these problems become more apparent, many individuals seek relief in the form of massage therapy. Massage therapy naturally relieves stress by lowering one’s heart rate and blood pressure while relaxing the muscles and improving circulation. Massage therapy also decreases the stress hormone cortisol, and allows the body to enter a relaxing state of rest and recovery. “This effect has been shown to linger long after the massage session is over. Beyond enhancing rest and relaxation, massage therapy can also help to provide muscle relief from aches and pains, and stimulate recovery from injury and overuse,” said John Lundgren, owner of Massage Envy Spa Lake Success. Whether muscle pain is caused from physical exercise or everyday activity, massage therapy uses a variety of techniques to relieve tension while increasing flexibility. These
techniques enable blood to flow through the overworked muscles, allowing them to receive oxygen and nutrients and to recover more quickly. Massage therapy also has several outcomes that go beyond the scope of just physical benefits, such as an improvement in overall mood, quality of sleep, and a strengthened immune system. “As members and guests of all ages experience the physical and emotional benefits of even a single massage therapy session, they realize massage therapy is about more than just relaxation,” added Lundgren. “’ME Time’ at Massage Envy Spa is a part of a more balanced lifestyle.” Massage Envy Spa is located in the Lake Success Shopping Center at 1476 Union Turnpike in New Hyde Park. It offers customized massage therapy and Murad® Healthy Skin facials performed by professional, licensed massage therapists and estheticians to guarantee the highest level of quality and care. Late night and weekend hours ensure that everyone can make time for rest and relaxation. To schedule an appointment today, call (516) 673-4278.
