Medspa Near Ashburn: Lasers Vs. Microneedling

March 21, 2025

If you’re considering skin treatments at a medspa near Ashburn, laser treatments and microneedling are likely at the top of your list. While both deliver transformative results, they target different skin issues through distinct methods. As industry leaders in both treatments, AVIE! Medspa and Laser Center is here to help you compare these options and find the perfect solution to reaching your skin goals.

Expert Advice From the Top Medspa Near Ashburn

Laser Treatments

Lasers are a great solution for addressing deeper skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven texture. We offer a range of advanced lasers, including Halo, MOXI, BBL, BBL HERO, and more, each specifically designed to target the deeper layers of your skin. These lasers deliver dramatic, long-lasting results and can offer powerful anti-aging benefits, making them an ideal choice for anyone looking for the best skin resurfacing and rejuvenation.

Microneedling

Microneedling uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, kickstarting the body’s natural healing process and boosting collagen and elastin production. This process helps to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, minimize acne scars, tighten enlarged pores, and more!

For those seeking even more advanced results, VirtueRF Microneedling incorporates radiofrequency energy, which further tightens the skin and enhances overall rejuvenation. While traditional microneedling is still a great option, VirtueRF targets deeper skin layers for a more intensive treatment. Both treatments offer minimal downtime and can be combined with other services to create the perfect treatment plan at our medspa near Ashburn.

Laser Hair Removal

It’s not too late to schedule a series of laser hair removal treatments with us. As long as you aren’t tanning – and that includes spray tanning, self-tanning lotions and natural sun exposure – you can safely get treated. We’ve been performing advanced laser hair removal treatments here at AVIE! for decades and take laser hair removal very seriously. Our laser technicians are fully licensed and offer years of experience to deliver the most effective treatments for you. We’ll work with you during your consultation to determine the number of treatments you need to achieve your goals.

Vein Treatments

Spider veins, broken capillaries and other vein concerns on your legs are another reason why so many women have a hard time getting excited about wearing shorts or swimsuits. We think it’s time you felt good about your legs! We offer two types of vein treatments here at AVIE!: sclerotherapy and laser vein treatment. Sclerotherapy injects veins with a special solution, causing the concerned veins to collapse and gradually fade away in the weeks following your treatment. For smaller veins and facial veins, we can also use non-invasive BBL^™ photofacials. We can help you figure out which treatment is best for you during your consultation.

Body Contouring

If you’re bothered by pinchable fat, we offer CoolSculpting^® non-invasive fat reduction which freezes fat away anywhere you need it. CoolSculpting works extremely well for people who are close to their ideal weight, within 20 pounds or so, and who have bulges of fat like a muffin top or double chin. Once you’ve trimmed down a “problem” spot, you may enjoy even more contouring help with EMSCULPT^®, a non-invasive muscle toning treatment. EMSCULPT induces thousands of muscle contractions in targeted areas, helping tone and firm up flab without having to spend hours at the gym. EMSCULPT and CoolSculpting are definitely not substitutes for a healthy lifestyle, but they can help you achieve your body contouring goals much faster and more easily than you would otherwise.
We also offer a wide range of skin rejuvenation treatments, including skin tightening with Vivace^™ Microneedling RF, SkinTyte^™ II, Halo^™ laser skin renewal, ProFractional^™ laser skin resurfacing…the list goes on! We can’t wait to help you look and feel your best. To learn more about our summer prepping treatments, call 703.870.3844 or request a consultation online today.

Think renewal.

Radiant skin is always in fashion. We swear by our skin rejuvenation treatments which help to stimulate your skin’s natural healing response and grow vibrant new collagen and elastin.

Skin care products matter!

To enhance and maintain the benefits of your skin treatments, we’ll send you home with results-driven formulations, hand-picked by our skin care experts for your unique complexion needs.

Give yourself a fighting chance.

There’s a reason your trouble spots are called “trouble.” They come easy, but they certainly don’t go easy! Pinchable pockets of fat are impossible to tame with traditional exercise or dietary measures. It’s a losing battle! So, if you’re struggling with a belly bulge or pesky underarm or thigh fat, it’s time to give yourself a break and consider non-invasive fat reduction with CoolSculpting^®. A series of treatments can help you slim down specific areas so you can finally achieve your body contouring goals. You deserve success!

There’s more to body contouring than just fat reduction.

Muscles matter! You can tone up, adding definition and lift to your belly, buttocks, thighs and arms with EmSculpt^{® non-invasive muscle toning} treatments! EmSculpt stimulates targeted muscles with non-invasive HIFEM® (high intensity focused electromagnetic) energy to strengthen muscle fibers and reveal a more toned, firmer appearance without invasive measures or downtime.

Boost your efforts by combining treatments!

Have you heard of the ProLon^® Fasting Mimicking Diet^® (ProLon FMD)? This ultra-cleansing, restorative five-day regimen takes the guesswork and stress out of dieting by including every meal, snack and beverage you need from beginning to end. This clinically-proven diet helps your body to “reset,” heal and burn fat more efficiently so you can make the most of your other body contouring efforts. For your best results, we use ProLon FMD to complement/enhance CoolSculpting and EmSculpt® treatment regimens.
Our job is to make you look and feel terrific, and we can’t wait to help you achieve your best! To learn about your ideal treatments, please call 703.870.3844 or request a personal consultation online today!

Fall for Fabulous Skin Leesburg, VA

October 24, 2019

I love pumpkin spiced lattes as much as anyone, but my favorite autumnal delight is glowing skin. Yes, it’s another blog about the fact that fall is a perfect time to schedule laser skin rejuvenation treatments like Halo^™, BBL^™, ProFractional^™, and MicroLaserPeel^®, to name just a few of the leading laser technologies. (I work hard to bring you the best because you deserve the very best results!) In case you missed the memo, the colder weather is laser treatment time because lasers and the sun go together like peanut butter and mayo. In other words, they don’t go together!

Before getting your laser skin rejuvenation treatment, here are some important tips for achieving optimal results.

Wait until all your summer color has faded.

Laser skin treatments are intended to remove sun-damaged skin, but that doesn’t mean you should come in with a tan. To get your best results and avoid any side effects like hyper or hypopigmentation, you need to undergo treatment with clean, calm, sun-protected skin.

Be patient — and don’t pick!

After your treatment, you must never rush your skin’s renewal process because it will increase your risk for side effects! Halo, for example, involves up to a week of renewal. Immediately following your treatment, your skin will look bright red and feel sunburned. This redness will gradually fade over the next few days, developing a brown, “crust-like” patina. “Though it doesn’t look so hot, it’s a sign that your skin is literally renewing itself!” says Kim. “It means healthy, vibrant new skin is on its way!” Though it’s tempting to exfoliate any roughness or flaking you see, it’s vital that you avoid picking and fussing. “Your skin knows how to heal itself; it doesn’t need interference,” says Kim. But here’s how you can help: Follow your customized, post-treatment, medical-grade skin care regimen to ensure you will love your results!

It’s Time to Get Glowing! Leesburg, VA

September 12, 2019

You know how I said in last week’s blog that fall is the time to focus on YOU with body contouring treatments like EMSCULPT® and CoolSculpting®? Well, it’s also the ideal time to focus on your complexion. In other words…
…drum roll, please…
…it’s laser skin rejuvenation season!

Now that the harsh summer sun is taking a breather, it’s the perfect time to give your skin some R & R. But I’m not talking about rest and recuperation. I’m talking RADIANCE and RENEWAL!! If you’re interested in turning back years of sun damage and improving the tone and texture of your skin so you can flaunt a lit-from-within glow, I’ve got two words for you: Halo^™ and BBL^™! Halo laser skin renewal and BBL photofacial are two amazing skin treatments that combine to reveal your best skin ever.

Halo vs. BBL

• Halo is a fractional laser skin resurfacing treatment that removes old skin and triggers the growth of intensely revitalized new skin that’s smoother, brighter, more-evenly toned, and younger-looking.
• BBL is a non-invasive light treatment that improves pesky pigmentation irregularities like age spots, sun spots, redness, freckles, and small veins. In other words, if your complexion is ruddy or blotchy, a series of BBL photofacials will do the trick with little to no downtime.

Now let’s talk downtime. Depending on the intensity of your treatment, you’ll start noticing benefits within the first week, with optimal improvements within the first month of treatment. Because Halo stimulates skin renewal from within, thanks to new collagen and elastin growth, you’ll experience continued improvements for months to come! Our clients from Leesburg, Ashburn, and all over NoVA are loving their results!
Of course, there are several other laser skin treatments to consider: MicroLaserPeel^® and ProFractional^™ skin resurfacing are also terrific skin-renewing tools. During your consultation, we’ll figure out the perfect treatment or combination treatment for your goals!
To learn more about Halo, BBL, and other laser skin rejuvenation treatments, call us at 703.870.3844 or fill out our online form and request your complimentary consultation today.
