Lasers
Our cutting-edge laser and light-based therapies revitalize skin by correcting sun damage and counteracting the effects of aging. Lasers use a single wavelength of light energy to target melanin (removal of dark spots, hair removal), hemoglobin (treatment of redness and visible veins), or water (collagen stimulation for skin rejuvenation). Through this targeted approach, termed selective photothermolysis, the new generation of lasers provide skin-perfecting results that aren’t achievable through skincare alone. Innovations in gentle fractionated non-ablative resurfacing, the most significant development being Solta’s Clear+Brilliant platform of lasers, allow for the skin to be kept functioning at a biologically younger age with a reduction in precancerous biomarkers, and therefore to appear more youthful over the years. Dr. Sherber’s approach is generally to focus on consistency rather than intensity, planning a series of treatments to achieve safe and effective improvements in the skin.
Allure magazine named Dr. Sherber the best dermatologist in Washington, D.C., saying “Sherber’s laser treatments are out of this world for evening skin tone and texture.” Dr. Sherber performs all treatments personally, and does not delegate them. Dr. Sherber's extensive knowledge of the amount and type of energy required to resolve skin issues allows patients to achieve optimal results that are individualized to their concerns. She is well-trained in the latest technologies and treatment modalities and focuses on improving skin health by bringing fresh undamaged skin to the surface. Dr. Sherber knows that not all skin types and tones respond in the same way to the various treatments, and therefore thoroughly evaluates each patient's skin to design a course of treatment that combines multiple treatment modalities to provide the best results possible.
Our state-of-the-art treatments that employ laser, light, and radio frequency energy are completely non-invasive and non-surgical. As compared to older laser technologies, the devices we select allow for a more safe and comfortable experience, dramatically shorter downtime and recovery time, a lower chance of complications, and no pain medication or scarring.
We provide a number of laser, light, and energy therapies designed to address various skin quality concerns for patients with all skin types and all skin tones. At Sherber+Rad we offer the following laser, light, and energy therapies: CLEAR + BRILLIANT, PERMÉA, LASER GENESIS, ND:YAG, LASER HAIR REMOVAL, LIMELIGHT INTENSE PULSED LIGHT, BLUE LIGHT LED and PEARL FRACTIONAL.
The cost of laser treatment at out practice varies depending on a number of factors. The exact procedure chosen will impact the overall price, as will the number of treatment sessions required to achieve each patient’s aesthetic goals. We work to customize each treatment plan to accommodate concerns for cost and to create optimal options for patients looking for high-quality lasting results.
