Profound Lift
RF Microneedling · Skin Tightening

Penetrates deeper skin layers to stimulate the body's own production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Combined with CO2RE resurfacing, it creates the ultimate rejuvenation result — structural and surface.

IPL
Intense Pulsed Light

Broad-spectrum light therapy for sun damage, pigmentation, rosacea, and vascular lesions. One of the most effective tools for reversing the type of UV-driven skin damage that is especially prevalent in St. George's high-altitude, high-UV climate.

FAQ

Common questions.

Is laser treatment painful?
Most laser treatments involve minimal discomfort — a warm sensation or light snapping feeling that most patients tolerate easily. For more intensive treatments such as laser skin resurfacing or skin tightening, Desert Sands offers MD-supervised comfort sedation administered by Dr. Eric Evans, MD, a board-certified anesthesiologist. This makes Desert Sands the only med spa in Southern Utah able to offer a completely comfortable experience for more involved laser procedures.
How many laser treatments will I need?
The number of treatments varies by service and individual. Laser hair removal typically requires a series of six or more sessions for permanent reduction. IPL photofacials and vascular laser treatments may require one to three sessions depending on the severity of the concern. Skin resurfacing and tightening are often performed in one to two sessions with lasting results. Shannon Evans, RN will give you a realistic, honest treatment plan during your complimentary consultation.
Is laser treatment safe for sun-damaged or desert skin?
Desert Sands is experienced in treating the types of sun damage, pigmentation, and skin concerns that are especially common in St. George's high-altitude, high-UV climate. Shannon uses the appropriate laser technology and settings for each individual's skin type and level of sun damage. A thorough consultation is always the first step to confirm the right approach for your specific skin — Shannon will never treat skin that isn't properly prepared or that she believes carries unnecessary risk.
