New Technology A Major Step In Improving Safety of Laser Hair Removal and Skin Rejuvenation Procedures

Doctors at AMEREJUVE, a Galleria skin rejuvenation center, have introduced Juvimáge™ Infrared Fusion Skin Mapping Technology. The first of its kind in Texas, this technology guides laser-based procedures to prevent thermal injury - a major advancement toward improving the safety and reliability of skin rejuvenation treatments.

Houston, TX (PRWEB) April 16, 2008 -- A new skin rejuvenation center in the Galleria area has introduced a proprietary technology that uses infrared fusion imaging system to guide laser-based procedures for prevention of thermal injury--a major advancement toward improving the safety and reliability of skin rejuvenation treatments.

Doctors at AMEREJUVE, which opened its Galleria center in February (at the corner of Sage Road and West Alabama), use infrared fusion technology to take the guesswork out of laser and light-based treatments by "mapping" the skin's surface to determine potential areas of excessive heat during skin rejuvenation procedures.

According to Pamela Dunn, AMEREJUVE's nurse aesthetician, infrared mapping of the skin is particularly useful for individuals with darker complexions, in whom typical skin color changes caused by overheating are more difficult to detect with the naked eye. Dunn adds that infrared imaging allows technicians to optimize the energy dose to match a client's specific skin type and achieve desired results without sacrificing safety.

"Juvimáge provides thermal mapping of the treated area which gives the operator confidence that the laser or IPL is not overheating the skin." says Dr. Morteza Naghavi, the inventor of the technology who himself was a victim of treatment gone wrong and was severely burned following a traditional laser hair removal procedure. "This technology can offer peace of mind to those undergoing laser hair removal or other light based skin rejuvenation procedures."

Besides Juvimáge™ technology, AMEREJUVE offers its clients the JuviMirror™ system, visualization software designed to simulate the results of procedures such as BOTOX, dermal fillers, skin tightening and other rejuvenation therapies. After taking visible and infrared photos of the patient's face, AMEREJUVE's technicians utilize JuviMirror™ to demonstrate, in advance, the potential outcome of treatments. This service is offered free of charge to anyone interested in receiving skin rejuvenation treatments.

Located at 2800 Sage Road, suite A-200, AMEREJUVE is a pioneering enterprise dedicated to providing its clients with the latest in non-surgical treatments for both preventive and restorative rejuvenation. The company is planning to offer its proprietary system to other centers such as Medispas and laser hair removal clinics so patients throughout the country can benefit from this advancement in safety for laser procedures. Cosmetic nurse practitioners and aestheticians can independently attend the Juvimáge™ training course and receive certification. For additional information, call 1-888-5-REJUVE or 713-960-6262.
