Laser Skin Rejuvenation
in Yakima, Washington

At Integrative Dermatology in Yakima, we offer advanced Sciton laser technologies designed to improve skin health at every level—from tone and clarity to texture, collagen, and long-term aging prevention.

Our approach is intentional and customized. Rather than one-size-fits-all treatments, we build thoughtful laser plans based on your skin concerns, lifestyle, and long-term goals—using technology that delivers real, measurable change in the skin.

Sciton BBL HERO

The Foundation of Skin Health & Aging Prevention

BBL HERO (High Energy Rapid Output) is an advanced broadband light treatment that corrects a wide range of skin concerns at the surface and at a cellular level. In addition to targeting pigment, redness, acne-causing bacteria, and vascular lesions, clinical studies have shown that BBL can downregulate the expression of genes associated with skin aging and inflammation while upregulating genes linked to younger, healthier skin function.

In simple terms, BBL helps the skin behave more like younger skin over time—leading to clearer, brighter, more even-toned, and more youthful-appearing skin with consistency.

What BBL HERO Treats & Improves

Sun damage, freckles, and age spots
Uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation
Redness, rosacea, and broken capillaries
Hemangiomas and other benign vascular lesions
Active acne and acne-causing bacteria

Enhancing BBL Results with SkinTyte

Targeted Collagen Support & Skin Firmness

For patients looking to address early skin laxity or crepey texture, SkinTyte can be added to BBL HERO treatments to enhance collagen stimulation and skin firmness.

SkinTyte uses infrared light to gently heat the deeper layers of the skin while protecting the surface. When combined with BBL, this pairing improves both skin quality and firmness without added downtime.

  • Face and jawline
  • Neck
  • Chest
  • Arms

Downtime: None

Best for: Mild to moderate skin laxity

SkinTyte is designed to enhance and support results, not replace surgical or injectable tightening procedures.

Sciton HALO

Advanced Skin Resurfacing & Texture Renewal

HALO is a hybrid fractional laser that treats both the surface of the skin and the deeper dermis in a single treatment. It is ideal for patients seeking visible improvement in texture, tone, pores, and fine lines with less downtime than traditional resurfacing lasers.

What HALO Treats & Improves

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Sun damage and pigmentation
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Enlarged pores
  • Acne scarring
  • Dull or rough skin

Treatment Experience & Downtime

  • Treatment time: ~30–60 minutes
  • Topical numbing is used for comfort
  • Downtime: Typically 2–5 days, depending on treatment depth
  • Healing process:
    • Initial redness and warmth
    • Bronzing and light flaking
    • Progressive improvement over weeks to months as collagen remodels
  • Many patients achieve excellent results with 1 treatment
  • Some benefit from 2 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart
  • Annual maintenance may be recommended based on goals

Enhancing HALO Results with Topical PDGF

Optimized Healing & Regenerative Support

Following HALO resurfacing, we may recommend topical platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) to support healing and enhance outcomes.

PDGF helps signal skin cells to repair, regenerate, and rebuild collagen more efficiently during the post-laser healing phase—when the skin is most responsive.

Benefits of PDGF After HALO

  • Accelerated healing and recovery
  • Reduced inflammation
  • Enhanced collagen stimulation
  • Improved texture and tone
  • Optimized long-term results

Topical PDGF is applied immediately after treatment and continued at home as directed to support skin regeneration.
