The latest Laser resurfacing technology available for the first time in Arizona at CIAO BELLA:
SMARTXIDE Dot
Ciao Bella Medical Spa is the first in Arizona to offer SmartXide Dot, a revolutionary new tool for facial resurfacing that just received FDA approval.
The SmartXide Dot treatments represent the very latest in tissue rejuvenation laser technology. This great breakthrough by DEKA Lasers utilizes a CO2 fractional system with a super-fast scanner that allows the doctor to do a "Dot Resurfacing". By removing a customized pattern of dots and not the entire skin surface, unlike other CO2 lasers, this technology combines the best of both worlds - the great and proven results of a traditional ablative laser, but without the pain and the traditional downtime. The SmartXide Dot treatment causes a rapid tightening of the skin, reduces blemishes and softens irregularities and scarring. It also stimulates collagen production, giving the skin a younger plumper look and feel. The collagen produced helps to prolong the effects of the treatment, and gives a more even result. What also sets SmartXide Dot apart from other treatments is that each treatment can be tailored to each person’s skin-type and degree of damage.
If you have always desired to rejuvenate your skin but have had fears of traditional laser resurfacing, you should consider this laser treatment. The results surpass any other laser technology on the market and blow away commonly known treatments like microdermabrasions and skin peels.

What does it treat?
It is a safe and effective way to treat sun damage, stubborn pigmentation, acne scars, rough texture, enlarged pores, fine lines, wrinkles and skin laxity on the face, neck, chest, arms and hands and surgical scars, with essentially no downtime.
How many treatments will it takes to see the best results?
Depending on the degree of damage to your skin and desired results, most patients require 1-3 treatments, spaced 4 - 6 weeks apart.
How much improvement can I expect?
Patients can expect to see improvement in the color, texture and quality of the skin within a week or two after the treatment; however, more significant improvement will be seen after the series of treatments is complete. Skin laxity can be furthered improved by combining SmartXide with radio frequency skin tightening and in some cases adding a feather lift procedure for very loose skin.
What does the treatment feel like?
There is virtually minimal, if any, discomfort during the procedure. Rarely, a mild burning sensation may occur. No topical anesthetic is required. However if we are working near the eye, say in the lower lids to create tightening there, then we would put protective eye shields in the eye with anesthetic eye drops as a precautionary measure to protect the eye itself; SAFETY FIRST !
What can I expect after the treatment?
Most people have some pinkness and some even a small amount of edema/swelling in the skin which settles in 24 hours and can therefore return to work the next day. Make-up can be worn the next day. We would advise that if you work in the public eye, or on television, then it may be advisable to plan to take off 5 working days, as studio cameras are unkind at the best of times! We recommend regular application of moisturizers during the day for the first 5-7 days as the skin may feel a little dry.
Any body surface area and all skin types and colors can be treated. The following is a list of conditions that can be treated with SmartXide Dot:
