Transform Your Skin & Eyes with ADVATx

ADVATx is a cutting-edge laser treatment available at San Carlos Eye Care that revitalizes your skin while addressing underlying causes of dry eye, providing a smoother complexion and healthier eyes—all painlessly and without discomfort or downtime.

This advanced, non-invasive treatment combines the power of two wavelengths: the 589nm ADVA BRIGHT and the 1319nm ADVA CLEAR. The dual-wavelength technology is specifically designed for non-invasive skin resurfacing and the treatment of various skin conditions. It also targets inflammation, which can be a root cause of dry eye symptoms, particularly in conditions like ocular rosacea.

 The AdvaTx laser uses two wavelengths to target different skin depths:

• 589nm treats redness, pigmentation, and fine lines by targeting blood vessels and superficial layers.
• 1319nm penetrates deeper to reduce oiliness, deeper wrinkles, and improve texture by stimulating collagen production.

Together, they provide a comprehensive skin rejuvenation by addressing both surface-level and deeper skin concerns.

Our doctors can customize ADVATx laser treatments using various scan patterns to ensure precise delivery of laser energy to targeted areas. ADVATx has been FDA and CE approved for a variety of conditions. 

ADVATx effectively reduces inflammation, improves skin tone, and diminishes the appearance of redness, rosacea, fine lines, and wrinkles. In addition to its cosmetic benefits, ADVATx is particularly beneficial for treating ocular rosacea—a common root cause of dry eyes. By reducing inflammation caused by rosacea, ADVATx improves tear quality and alleviates dry eye symptoms.

One of the most significant advantages of the AdvaTx laser is its low-risk nature—requiring no numbing and needing little to no downtime. The advanced PulSync technology precisely targets the treatment area while preserving the surrounding skin, ensuring both safety and effectiveness. You can achieve clearer, more radiant skin and relief from dry eye symptoms without disrupting your daily routine. After treatment, it's recommended to avoid direct sun exposure for at least 24 hours to maximize results and protect your skin.

When it comes to treating skin conditions and dry eye symptoms caused by inflammation, pulse technology matters. Traditional Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments use bursts of energy that can lead to unwanted heat buildup, potentially causing discomfort and complications, especially for those with darker skin tones.

AdvaTx takes a different approach. It delivers ultra-precise micropulses of light that gently target problem areas without overheating the surrounding skin. Think of it like adding tiny drops of warm water into a glass rather than dumping it all at once. This allows for safer, more controlled treatments with less risk of side effects and better results for a wider range of skin types. With AdvaTx, treatments are gentler, more precise, and more effective for conditions like rosacea, fine lines, acne scars, and even dry eye symptoms caused by inflammation. If you're looking for advanced skin and eye care with enhanced safety and effectiveness compared to IPL, AdvaTx is an excellent option.
