Radio frequency laser body sculpting (also known as skin tightening) is popular as it removes fat, tightens the skin and improves tone, without any pain or downtime!
The treatment is offered by Dr. Burkenstock’s Skin-Body-Health to offer a non-invasive, pain-free body treatment to help reduce the appearance of cellulite, firm skin, boost collagen production, and tackle any pesky, fatty deposits that won’t budge with exercise.
It’s a pretty versatile treatment as it can also help reduce flabby skin, tighten bingo wings under the arms, contour and tighten a post-pregnancy tummy, reduce fine lines and wrinkles (on the face and body), reduce saddle bags, and even lift and tighten your bum.
What’s more, radio frequency body contouring requires no recovery time and is FDA-approved.
Looking to remove stubborn fat, tighten your skin, and improve your tone? Call today to schedule a FREE consultation and learn about this non-invasive, pain-free treatment.
The radio frequency energy penetrates the skin layers to selectively heat the skin tissue where the collagen fibers are embedded. The local laser heat causes an immediate contraction of the collagen fibers, and fat cells drain and then shrink, while the fibroblast cells (part of our connective tissue) are stimulated to produce new collagen and elastic fibers. The effect of this is tighter, smoother, younger-looking skin with a visible “lift.” Fat cells are reduced and stubborn cellulite looks a lot less noticeable.
The treatment itself is surprisingly relaxing. The technique is so relaxing that actually, it’s easy to fall fast asleep – always a sign of a good treatment. There is no pain or discomfort.
Most patients will be able to notice an immediate result in the tightness of their skin, but results continue to emerge in the days following the treatment too. Skin is remarkably smoother, and muscle tone is more visible. Normally, multiple sessions are required, generally one per week until you’ve had about 4-8 treatments in total; this depends on the results you want and your body type.
Normally, there are no side effects from the treatment but some people might find the treatment area is a little red or pink after the treatment. Any redness or pink tone usually resolves after 30 minutes.
Your hands can be a tell-tale sign of aging. Restore a more youthful appearance with Radiesse®!
When it comes to visible signs of aging, most of the focus usually goes into the face for rejuvenating skin and restoring a more youthful appearance. However, the hands can also exhibit tell-tale signs of aging such as thin skin and a hollow, sunken appearance. We offer the innovative Radiesse® hand rejuvenation treatment to erase visible signs of aging and establish balance between the face and hands.
Schedule a consultation today to learn how Radiesse® hand rejuvenation can restore your hands to a more youthful appearance.
Radiesse® is the first and only dermal filler that has been approved by the FDA for hand augmentation. While this injectable treatment is also approved for the correction of visible signs of aging in the face, we focus our use of Radiesse® strictly on the hands. The loss of collagen and elastin in the skin can lead to thinness and the increased visibility of veins and underlying hand structures on the backs of the hands. When injected underneath the skin, Radiesse® raises the skin level and maintains smoother, tighter contours for up to one year in many clients. With the Radiesse® hand rejuvenation treatment, your hands will not give away your age.
Typical side effects of most injectable treatments are slight bruising, swelling, or redness at injection sites, which are temporary and usually subside within a day or two. As the calcium microspheres of Radiesse® are easily processed by the body, severe adverse reactions are rare.
Your Radiesse® hand rejuvenation treatment will help you look as young as you feel, erasing years and restoring your confidence in your skin.
Ready to remove unwanted hair? With a series of laser hair removal treatments at Dr. Burkenstock’s Skin-Body-Health, you can permanently reduce unwanted hair.
It is sometimes hard to tell how many treatments you might need in advance. Hair develops in phases, and we can only treat hair in its active, visible stage. Therefore, the number of treatments depends on how quickly the untreated hairs appear. For significant clearance, most men require a course of 4-6 treatments, which are spaced at least 6-8 weeks apart.
Patients will feel a series of short snaps, somewhat like a rubber band snapping. Treatment times vary depending, of course, on the size and number of areas needing to be treated.
The beauty of this technology is that it effectively destroys the hair itself without harming the surrounding skin. You may be a little red afterward, but that typically goes away in a matter of hours.
Other skin issues such as facial flushing, rosacea, and spider veins can also be treated by increasing the temperature around the targeted area, breaking down the off-color pigments so they can be removed by the body.
Everyone asks if it is permanent. Yes, it is totally permanent. The hair we treat with the laser will not grow back, and patients can expect an 85 percent reduction in hair after 4-6 treatments. As we age our hair patterns change, so this does not prevent the possibility of new hair growth over the years.
Have you ever wanted those red and blue veins in your legs to disappear? Eliminate the unwanted appearance of spider and varicose veins in your legs. Dr. Kelly Burkenstock uses both Sclerotherapy injections without saline and laser treatments to eliminate the appearance of spider and varicose leg veins. This unique combination of therapies allows Dr. Burkenstock to custom treat your leg veins.

Hair loss can be a troubling and sensitive issue whether it is due to menopause, male pattern baldness, genetics, stress, or a medical condition. PRP hair restoration is an exciting non-surgical therapeutic option available at Dr. Burkenstock’s Skin-Body-Health for clients who require stimulation of hair growth for all types of hair loss conditions.
PRP can effectively stimulate a renewed blood supply and proper nutrients to run-down and damaged hair follicles, which can work to restore the hair growth process. The renewed growth helps to fill in areas of receding or thinning hair. PRP is a natural serum derived directly from your own cells to initiate regeneration.
Injections of PRP allow us to obtain a deeper penetration of PRP into the scalp, thereby amplifying hair restoration capabilities. PRP can be combined with other ingredients and nutrients to dramatically improve hair regrowth.
With a tiny needle, your own Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) plus nutrients are injected into the scalp. Then the growth factors in your blood cells do their job, and hair growth is naturally stimulated.
The end result is a fuller, healthier-looking head of hair. Multiple sessions may be needed to obtain the desired result. This treatment is ideal for anyone with thinning hair and any type of hair.
A series of three treatments every six weeks is required for optimal results. A maintenance treatment every six months is recommended to maintain the desired results.
A laser light cap is offered for home use to enhance the hair regrowth result. In addition, certain hair supplements will be recommended to support hair growth.
Growth factors are harvested in the Platelet-Rich Plasma which are beneficial in hair growth and restoration, and they have anti-aging benefits as well.
This PRP procedure is a very specific method using blood-derived growth factors from the client to rejuvenate the female private genitals and help women improve urinary incontinence and intimacy issues.
Biopsy studies suggest that when PRP is injected, the stem cells multiply and grow younger tissue. In the same way PRP regenerates the skin of the face, it appears PRP regenerates healthy female vaginal tissue. So, using this same technology, the Oh LaLa! Shot procedure works by using PRP to stimulate stem cells to grow healthier vaginal tissue.
First, a numbing cream is applied to the area. Then a small amount of blood is drawn from the arm just like a blood draw for a routine test. Using a very fine, tiny needle, the growth factors are injected into the clitoris and the upper vaginal opening.
Because these areas have been numbed with the anesthetic cream, the patient feels little to no pain.
Although each woman’s experience can be different, here is a list of some things our patients have told us they experience after having the Oh LaLa! Shot procedure:
It’s nice to layer PRP with traditional fillers. If a patient has volume loss with a lot of fine lines and textural changes, Dr. Burkenstock will use PRP to create a new foundation of collagen and use dermal fillers for the fine lines.
“Dr. Burkenstock is by far the best physician I have ever had. She believes in treating the whole person, and promotes wellness. She has put my thyroid and hormones back in balance, and with the addition of vitamins and supplements I have never felt better.”
