Services
Laser Skin Rejuvenation
Laser skin rejuvenation uses advanced light technology to address sun damage, age spots, and uneven texture. This non-invasive treatment stimulates collagen production, improving skin tone and elasticity. Ideal for patients seeking a refreshed, youthful appearance with minimal downtime.
Botox Injections
Botox injections temporarily reduce facial wrinkles by relaxing targeted muscles. Our specialists use FDA-approved formulas to smooth frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead creases. Results appear within days and last up to four months for a natural, rejuvenated look.
Skin Tightening
Skin tightening procedures use radiofrequency and ultrasound to firm sagging skin without surgery. Treatments target the face and neck, restoring contours by stimulating collagen and elastin. Patients enjoy gradual improvement over several months with no incisions or scarring.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal eliminates unwanted hair using precision light energy. Multiple sessions target hair follicles at different growth stages, achieving long-term smoothness. Effective for various skin tones and body areas, with minimal discomfort.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels exfoliate dead skin cells to reveal brighter, healthier layers beneath. Solutions range from mild to deep penetration, addressing acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines. Customized treatments improve texture and promote cellular turnover for a radiant complexion.

Extremely recommend this practice. Dr. Adrien was able to help me solve a problem that other practices have not been able to solve. This practice was very good. I would definitely go back.

This review is long overdue, as I have been absolutely delighted by the service here since my very first appointment in February 2019. The staff here are incredibly kind and understanding. I have received all of my treatments from Kathy, a dermatological nurse with decades of experience. Despite her years of expertise and knowledge, Kathy is incredibly accessible and easy to talk to. Every single time I've seen her (five sessions so far) she has gone well out of her way to ensure my comfort and ease. The cherry on top is that their prices are also very reasonable for the DMV area.

Melanie is beyond phenomenal! I have been to her several times for many different treatments and been satisfied every time. She is very friendly and knows her needle! She is a perfectionist and it shows in her work. I highly recommend her! She really cares about her patients and it shows through her work.

The Center for Laser Surgery is AMAZING. The staff is friendly and incredibly knowledgeable & professional! I've had laser hair removal done there ( after a bad experience somewhere else) Kathy, who's actually a nurse, does my laser hair removal treatment. I love that she is a nurse trained in providing safe and effective laser hair removal. Don't let the price shy you away. It is 100% worth it & you will not regret going!

Today was my first visit and I was coming ready for a facial. Their friendly staff checked me in quickly and Anna came for me within minutes. She was very kind and caring, and I felt as she was very honest with our consultation and made sure all my questions were answered. At the end, the facial I wanted was not the right option for me, but she suggested alternatives that were very well suited for what I was looking for.
On my way out, I had a last-minute question about laser treatment and Melanie, the laser specialist, pulled me aside to address it without the need to come back for a different consultation. I am very happy with how I was treated and I would recommend this practice to anyone.
