The Elite iQ laser technology is used to target your unwanted vascular, pigmentation and skin concerns. The energy delivered causes them to slowly disappear through your body’s natural healing process, revealing clearer, more beautiful-looking skin.
Laser treatments use short, safe bursts of light to target and treat specific skin conditions.
The advanced technology at Calveo is medically proven to carefully deliver the appropriate amount of energyinto your skin to address the unwanted skin concern. Elite iQ treatment are fast, easy and well-tolerated. The results produce younger looking skin by removing age spots, sun spots, uneven pigmentation and diffuse redness by stimulating collagen production, thus improving your skin texture.
For vascular treatments, (such as veins) light energy is absorbed by the blood within the vein being targeted while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed.
Once the blood absorbs this energy, the vein will heat up and it will affect the vessel lining. Thus causing the vessel to constrict and eventually fade from view leaving your legs looking clear and rejuvenated. Treatments with this system are fast, effective, and safe allowing you to resume your normal activities as quickly as possible.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Pigmentation
If you have some sort of skin discoloration, you’re not alone. In fact, facial brown spots and discoloration are one of the top treatments at Calveo. Although you may have tried and failed with previous efforts to erase pigment, newer technologies have resulted in some remarkable outcomes. Laser treatments with the Elite iQ represent a breakthrough in age-defying skin care that treats skin non-invasively.
What are pigmented lesions?
Pigmentation is the color in your skin produced by melanin, a natural pigment that also determines eye and hair color. However, if too much melanin is produced in one area, the result is a brown patch on your skin.
Too much melanin can result from: · Sun exposure · Aging · Heredity or congenital factors
Common pigmented lesions include: · Age Spots or “Liver” Spots: Smaller darkened patches usually on older adults who have been exposed to the sun for many years. These spots can be seen on the face, forearms and backs of hands.·
Post-inflammatory Hyper-Pigmentation: This type of hyper-pigmentation results from any inflammatory injury or trauma to the skin. For example, acne often leaves dark discoloration after a blemish heals. Rashes like psoriasis and eczema often darken the skin as well.
Pigmented lesions can vary in size, shape and depth. Some are no bigger than a fingertip or even a pinhead, while others may be as large as a hand and occur in conspicuous places such as the face, neck or arms. They can be either raised or flat and are usually a cosmetic rather than a medical concern. However, all pigmented lesions need to be looked at prior to treatment to confirm.
During your consultation at Calveo we will determine if your pigmented lesions are safe to treat.
How long will it take?
The procedure typically takes less than 20 minutes to perform depending on the size of the area or number of pigmented lesions being treated. Often you will see great results after the first treatment session but typically 2-3 sessions may be required for optimal outcomes.
What do I need to do before a treatment?
You will need to avoid the sun, tanning beds and self-tanning creams and lotions prior to treatment. There may be some medications that you will need to avoid and your physician will cover these during your consultation.
What will happen after the procedure?
Some patients experience a mild sunburn sensation for a short time after the procedure. We may apply some ice immediately following your treatment to help minimize this. The pigmented lesions will darken over the next few days. The area will look a bit “dirty” or dark for about a week. Over this time, the treated skin will slough off, revealing fresh new skin.
How quickly will I recover?
Typically, you can resume regular daily activities immediately following treatment. Makeup can be applied to the treated area immediately, if necessary. It is extremely important to apply a moisturizer with SPF50 sun block and avoid sun exposure on a daily basis to prevent additional sun damage.
Am I a suitable candidate?
Our laser specialists at Calveo offer a complimentary consultation and talk with you about your skin type to confirm if you would be a good candidate for this treatment.
What areas can be treated?
Laser pigment clearance can be performed on the face and chest, as well as on the hands, arms and legs.
How many treatments will I need?
This will often depend on the pigmented lesion you have. For some brown spots, only a single treatment is needed, for others, a series of treatments may be recommended. Often you will see improvements within a couple weeks, with further improvements on subsequent treatments until you have achieved the over-all improvement you desire.
Vascular and Vein Treatments
The Elite iQ offers a nonsurgical solution for removing broken veins, spider and reticular veins on the face and body in less than 30 minutes with results that are long lasting. More importantly, it is an alternative to surgical leg vein removal, which leaves no incision scars and does not require lengthy recovery.
What types of veins can be treated?
Elite iQ is ideal for facial veins, broken capillaries, cherry angina's and leg veins,( not varicose veins)
How long does the treatment take?
Depending on the size of the area being treated, they can take just minutes. Typically, treatments are no longer than 30 minutes.
What type of result can I expect?
Many patients experience immediate improvement in the appearance of their leg veins following the treatment followed by continued improvement over the next week or so.
How many treatments will I need?
A series of treatments may be needed to fully clear blood vessels and reduce the appearance of the leg veins completely. Typically one to four sessions are needed for desired results.
What does the procedure feel like?
Patients describe a range of sensations from tingling to the snap of a rubber band during the procedure. You may also feel warmth during and after the procedure on the area that was treated.
When can I resume my daily activities?
Depending on the treatment concern the aftercare will vary. Our practitioners will guide you through aftercare during the consultation stage
Is It Safe?
The EliteIQ™ uses a proven 1064nm wavelength for effective treatment of leg veins in just a few sessions. The device has been in clinical use for many years and has been proven safe in many clinical publications.
What happens during a treatment?
The laser handpiece is placed over the skin where the pigmentation/vascular concern sits and a bright flash of light is released. This light is absorbed by the area and converted to heat.
Pigmentation The heat damages the cells that created the pigment and cause your body to naturally dispose of this tissue while creating new, healthy tissue. Laser safety goggles are worn by the client and practitioner during the treatment
Leg Veins. Before your EliteIQ™ leg vein treatment our laser specialist will typically apply a gel to the area being treated. This will help ensure the laser energy is delivered appropriately and will help cool the area during and after the treatment. The provider will begin the treatment by moving the laser handpiece over your skin, following the length of the vein and pulsing the energy as they go. You will be provided safety goggles before the treatment to protect your eyes but you may still see flashes of light as the laser energy is being delivered to your skin. You will also feel a mild sensation and heat on the skin during the treatment but air cooling may be used to help with any discomfort. The vessels may undergo immediate graying or blanching, or they may exhibit a slight purple or red color change. The vessels will fully or partially fade in about ten to fourteen days.
