Many individuals face challenges such as uneven skin tone, unwanted hair, stretch marks, acne scars, or visible veins that affect their confidence and appearance.

At Park Avenue Plastic Surgery & Spa, Dr. Brian P. Joseph offers this laser treatment to address various skin concerns without surgery.
What Is the Palomar Icon Laser?
The Palomar Icon Laser is an advanced aesthetic platform that delivers precise, non-invasive skin treatments through multiple technologies in one system. The Icon system combines Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), fractional laser capabilities, and specialized handpieces for hair removal and vascular treatments, allowing customized treatments based on your specific skin needs.
This versatile laser system uses controlled light energy that penetrates the skin at different depths. The technology targets problem areas while leaving surrounding tissue undamaged, promoting natural healing and collagen production. The Palomar Icon stands out for its built-in cooling system that maximizes comfort during treatment.
Palomar Icon Laser Treatment Applications
The Palomar Icon Laser is capable of addressing a variety of skin concerns through targeted, non-invasive treatments, including:
- Hair Removal – Permanently reduces unwanted hair on the face, underarms, legs, back, and other body areas through targeted light energy that disables hair follicles.
- Scar Removal – Improves the appearance of surgical scars, acne scars, and injury-related scarring by stimulating collagen remodeling and breaking down scar tissue.
- Skin Renewal – Refreshes tired, dull skin by promoting cellular turnover and revealing healthier skin beneath the surface.
- Skin Resurfacing – Addresses textural irregularities, fine lines, and shallow acne scars through controlled micro-injuries that trigger natural healing responses.
- Skin Revitalization – Targets signs of aging and sun damage by improving overall tone, reducing discoloration, and enhancing skin luminosity.
- Stretch Mark Removal – Diminishes the appearance of stretch marks on the abdomen, thighs, breasts, and other areas by rebuilding collagen in damaged skin.
- Vein Removal – Eliminates or reduces visible spider veins, broken capillaries, and other vascular lesions by targeting and collapsing unwanted blood vessels without damaging surrounding tissue.

- Face: Addresses fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, rosacea, and unwanted facial hair.

Am I an Ideal Candidate?
Good candidates are generally healthy adults seeking to improve skin imperfections without surgery. Candidates should have realistic expectations about gradual improvements over several sessions and no active skin infections or conditions in the treatment areas. Pregnant or nursing individuals and those using photosensitizing medications or who have taken Accutane in the past six months are typically advised to wait.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your visit begins with cleansing and application of a cooling gel to the treatment area. Protective eyewear is provided. The Palomar Icon device delivers pulses of light energy to precisely target the problem areas. You may feel mild snapping sensations, but the system’s built-in cooling helps minimize discomfort.
Treatment sessions range from 15-45 minutes based on the size and number of areas addressed. Multiple sessions spaced 3-4 weeks apart are usually necessary to achieve optimal results.
Recovery and Aftercare
After treatment, mild redness and swelling similar to sunburn are normal and usually subside within 1-3 days. Pigmented areas can temporarily darken before peeling occurs. Patients should avoid sun exposure and use broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily for at least two weeks. Normal activities can be resumed immediately, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for 24 hours.
Skin improvements develop gradually as collagen production continues for weeks following treatment. For optimal healing, keep the treated area clean and gently moisturize with a recommended fragrance-free lotion. Avoid using harsh skincare products such as exfoliants, retinoids, or acids until the skin has fully healed. Do not pick or scratch peeling skin to prevent scarring or infection.
Cost of Palomar Icon Laser Treatments in Orlando?
The cost of Palomar Icon Laser treatments varies based on several factors. Treatment prices depend on the specific concern, treatment area size, and number of sessions required. Hair removal packages may differ from skin resurfacing or vein treatment pricing.
