Though its primary purpose remains disrupting college lectures and movie screenings, laser light has also proven useful in the art of skin perfection. Reap the benefits of America's favorite repurposed supervillain weapon with today’s Groupon to Perceptions Image Boutique & Skin, a full-service medical spa in Fair Oaks. Choose between the following options:
- For $99, you get a full-face photofacial (a $400 value).
- For $125, you get a laser vein-therapy treatment (a $250 value).
Perceptions' experienced staff uses light to deviously manipulate time's effects on human skin surfaces. A photofacial employs lasers to attack skin damage and help restore cellular activity, encouraging skin's ability to communicate how lovely you look via Morse code. The photofacial also gets faces photo-ready by targeting melanin production, which contributes generously to age spots. Alternately, vein therapy redirects light's banishing powers to evict visible veins from the face or legs. Technicians can target deep veins as well as their superficial, less intellectual siblings. The vein procedure lasts about 15 minutes.
Perceptions' open, inviting atmosphere soothes customers from the moment they rotate through the Japanese gingko-thatched revolving door to the other moment when they rotate through the Japanese gingko-thatched revolving door and reemerge into the nonlaser light, boldly reflecting all electromagnetic radiation with a newly flawless complexion.
