I am not sure anyone could have prepared me – or that I would have believed anyone if they told me – for the seemingly inevitable bit of urine leakage that now happens when I sneeze, cough, laugh, or blow my nose too hard. What in the world?? I guess it happens to best of us. Mine was rather late onset because I did not have children, so it really took me by surprise. Turns out many of my friends with children had been dealing with this for quite a while. Stress urinary incontinence – or SUI - is the medical term. The non-medical term is “this sucks”.

Sure, just the sound of CoolSculpting can bring a shiver up your spine…but chill not! It’s the most amazing thing I’ve ever done, besides getting married and having a child! And the latter of the two is exactly why I needed CoolSculpting! For years I’ve seen and heard about CoolSculpting, but never gave it a second thought. Now that I’m getting a little older, and I can’t just stop eating sweets and bread for a week and loose weight, I needed a little extra help to make me feel more comfortable in my clothes and swimsuit.

Bad news – Oscars postponed until April 2021. Good news is you have time to get your skin in red carpet shape! Get to know what the fractional laser can do for you:
Discolorations or brown spots from the sun, fine lines and wrinkles, dull skin, scars – even precancerous lesions can all be improved with fractional laser treatments. Fractional lasers are lasers that treat a fraction - or percentage - of the skin with each pass of the laser over the skin. These impacts then do their magic. The laser target is dermal water – heating the dermal layer of the skin and creating a microscopic wound. Healing from this wound stimulates collagen, elastin and skin matrix renewal. Also unique to fractional lasers is that as each impact heals, unwanted discoloration from sun damage is pushed out – leaving brighter, less blotchy skin.

Did you know your skin stops producing collagen and elastin in your 20’s eventually leaving you with thin, sagging skin? That loss of collagen and elastin, paired with gravity, creates sagging jowls, undesirable turkey necks and a heavy, undefined jawlines. Charlotte Skin and Laser is here to help!
The 100 block of Providence Road is now an exhibition space for public art with the addition of new large-scale wall sculpture, Santé, commissioned by Charlotte Skin and Laser from Charlotte-artist, Matthew Steele. Offering both a detailed and fractional survey of the human form, Matthew Steele’s installation connects the viewer to the building from a distance. While the undulating form greets visitors at the point of entry with a more personal view that rewards the viewer’s interaction with a rich visual experience.
