HEALTHCARE TECHNOLOGY AT SOURCE OF HEALTH
Welcome to the gold standard in patient treatments! We are results focused, and patient oriented when it comes to the type of technology equipment used at Source of Health. When you decide to invest in yourself, you should be able to expect the best there is. Our truly customizable procedures for things such as skin resurfacing, tendon boosting, collagen inducing therapies eliminate your problem areas quickly, effectively and safely.
TETRA CO2 LASER
An advanced and highly flexible laser that offers a variety of skin tightening and rejuvenation capabilities. Using the Smart Scan technology, the Tetra can deliver power without the downtime commonly associated with traditional CO2 lasers. The CoolPeel is Tetra’s zero downtime laser treatment that is best done in a series of 3 over 4-6 weeks apart.
ACOUSTIC SHOCKWAVE
Soundwaves have been used in medicine for decades to treat a variety of conditions even as severe as kidney stones. The Z-Wave acoustic shockwave device powerfully targets degenerative bands of collagen found in ligaments and tendons. Originally used to treat tendonitis and plantar fasciitis, the acoustic shockwave is also able to successfully treat stubborn cellulite as well as its more famous indication of erectile dysfunction. Ooh yes… it really works.
CYNOSURE ICON
1540 NON-ABLATIVE FRACTIONAL
Cynosure Icon 1540 Non-Ablative Fractional laser is a true laser that delivers heat to cause micro injuries to the skin; which in turn produces collagen. The 1540 handpieces are used to treat light and deep wrinkles plus acne scars, making it a wonderful combination with microneedling at the same treatment visit.
IPL PHOTOFACIAL
Intense Pulse Light, aka termed the photofacial, uses select wavelengths of light to target a variety of skin concerns. Brown spots, red spot/capillaries, and collagen stimulation are all treated with the IPL device. The same device is also used to treat unwanted hair aka laser hair removal.
EXCEED MICRONEEDLING
The advanced microneedling system that carries the only double FDA cleared microneedling device for fine lines and acne scars. Microneedling is a form of collagen induction therapy that treats the skin and acne scars to remodel and rejuvenate your face.
PLASMA PEN
The Plasma Pen, also known as Fibroblasting, is a form of collagen induction by thermal coagulation of the skin causing immediate tightening. The plasma pen can be used down to a pinpoint level of accuracy. It is best known for its effects on the eyelids itself giving the treatment the term “nonsurgical bleph” or eyelid lift.
TE5 ULTRASOUND GUIDED INJECTION BY MINDRAY
Does your doctor inject blind? The TE5 by Mindray is an ultrasound machine with touchless sonar technology that delivers visual information to improve the precision and accuracy of therapeutic injections. This blend of modern science and technology outperforms traditional machines, which bounce sound off of hard objects and the image appears on the screen. The new TE5 has eSpacial NaviTM and iNeedle+TM to ensure both safety and efficacy with treatments. Muscles, nerves, veins, and arteries are all able to be visualized with the advanced software features on the TE5, which can measure the CIMT (Cartoid Intima Media Thickness), for relative risks in cardiovascular health. When injections into joints are needed, especially in moderate to severe arthritis, precision is key. One of the best treatments we offer using ultrasound is nerve hydro-dissection which can only be done with advanced visualization capabilities.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Tetra uses a fractional ablative pattern that selects a distance between each beam which diffuses the heat out of the skin and lessens downtime significantly. This differs from traditional lasers which ablate the entire surface of the skin leading to months of downtime.
Smart Scan is AI guidance that triggers the laser to fire in a randomized pattern to disperse heat, and in turn, downtime.
The CoolPeel is not actually a chemical peel, but rather is the most advanced, low heat delivery of a CO2 laser that is used to treat fine lines and texture abnormalities of the skin. The best part about the CoolPeel is that there is virtually zero downtime like traditional CO2 lasers. Patients notice heat like a jalapeno for about 30-60 minutes and cools down quickly. No numbing cream is even needed making this treatment visit done in under 30 minutes!
Investing in new technology is all about enhancing patient results. Imagine getting on an airplane that never upgrades their engines or landing software— you would never do that! When medical technology improves, we have to bring in the best to give the best level of service we can. We look for machines that deliver high output results, combination or overlapping mechanisms, and synergy between multiple devices.
Having the right tools at the right time gives a leading edge over others. This is all about our persistent obsession with delivering better results and improving the outcomes of all procedures. We are constantly on the lookout for the best that science can offer and that is then passed to the patient. The level of trust and confidence goes sky-high with the right technology.
With new technology, new techniques can be developed that improve upon older methods. As science progresses faster and faster with collaborative efforts, research can continue to update. As this happens, reinvesting in continuing education allows each provider to improve.
