What Is Laser?
Laser treatments harness concentrated light energy to address a wide range of skin concerns — from sun damage and pigmentation to texture, tone, and even hair removal. Modern laser technology offers precision and predictability that older modalities could not achieve.
Opus offers a curated selection of laser treatments appropriate for our patients' most common concerns. Dr. Frew evaluates each patient's skin type, condition, and goals to recommend the appropriate laser and treatment parameters.

The Process
Skin Assessment
Dr. Frew evaluates your skin type, concerns, and goals. The appropriate laser modality and treatment plan are recommended based on your unique skin profile.
Skin Preparation
Topical numbing cream is applied 30–60 minutes before treatment. The skin is cleansed thoroughly.
Laser Treatment
The laser is precisely applied to targeted areas. Depending on the modality, you may feel a mild warming sensation or snapping feeling. Treatment duration varies by area and concern.
Post-Care
Cooling gel or balm is applied. You receive detailed aftercare instructions including sun avoidance and skincare protocols.
