You know what they say—60 is the new 40. So even though you might be celebrating your retirement, that doesn’t mean you have to look your age. To help you sit back, relax and enjoy your retirement while still looking and feeling amazing, here are some of the best cosmetic treatments to look younger.

PicoWay® Resolve
If you’ve made a habit of spending a little too much time in the sun, you might now be noticing signs of sun damage showing up on your skin. The PicoWay® Resolve could be a good cosmetic solution for you if dark spots are getting in the way of your smooth, even complexion.
PicoWay is a type of laser skin rejuvenation that uses short bursts of laser energy to target the pigment in dark spots and other similar skin concerns. The laser energy then breaks up that pigment into very small particles so that it can be eliminated by your body.

eMatrix
eMatrix uses a different method of non-laser skin rejuvenation. This treatment harnesses bi-polar radiofrequency technology to target the layer of skin beneath the surface and stimulate collagen production. This process can help to smooth away the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while simultaneously tightening your skin for a smoother and more uniform look.
One of the biggest benefits of eMatrix is that it typically requires less downtime than traditional ablative laser treatments.

Vein Removal Treatment
Most people see beautiful results start to develop after just one treatment session with GentleMax Pro.
Pesky red facial veins and bothersome spider veins on the legs and other areas of the body are common cosmetic issues that tend to crop up with age. Luckily, there are a number of cosmetic treatment options that can help to reduce their appearance, including the GentleMax Pro® laser.
The GentleMax Pro laser combines two different types of lasers, making it an appropriate treatment for virtually all skin tones and types. A cooling component called the Dynamic Cooling Device™ is also included in this laser, so you should feel cool and comfortable during your procedure.

Laser Skin Resurfacing
Laser skin resurfacing is a type of skin rejuvenation that works by gently removing the outer layer of dead, flaky skin, dirt and other debris that can become built-up on the surface. In addition, these lasers also help to stimulate collagen production within the deeper layers of skin to trigger its own natural healing and rejuvenation process.
If the appearance of lines, wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, sun damage or uneven skin tone and texture are bothering you, you could be a good candidate for the CO2RE Fractional CO2 resurfacing laser.
This treatment usually takes about 30 minutes to complete, and most people see their full results develop after a single session. For the first 3 to 5 days after your CO2 laser treatment, you should plan to rest and recover and avoid direct sunlight.

Laser Hair Removal
When most people think of laser hair removal, they immediately think of larger areas of the body like the legs, back or chest. But many women have found that laser hair removal can also be a great option to get rid of stubborn facial hair on their upper lip or chin to get a younger, smoother look.
Keep in mind that laser hair removal requires multiple treatment sessions, each spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart for facial areas, and 8 to 10 weeks apart for your legs, underarms or other areas on your body.
