Laser Treatments
Our laser treatments address skin aging, pigmentation, and texture concerns using advanced technologies like BBL photofacials and Fraxel resurfacing. These non-invasive procedures stimulate collagen production for smoother, more youthful skin. Patients benefit from customized treatment plans developed by our board-certified dermatologist and experienced aestheticians.
Injectables
We offer FDA-approved injectables including Botox, Dysport, and Kybella administered by certified specialists. These treatments reduce wrinkles, contour facial features, and improve skin texture with minimal downtime. Our injectors maintain advanced training to ensure natural-looking results that enhance each patient's unique features.
Skin Tightening
Our skin tightening solutions like Ultherapy and ThermiTight use thermal energy to restore facial and body contours without surgery. These treatments stimulate collagen production for gradual, natural-looking results that improve skin laxity. Patients receive personalized consultations to determine the optimal approach for their concerns.
CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting eliminates stubborn fat cells through controlled cooling technology, with visible results appearing over 2-4 months. Our certified technicians create tailored treatment plans for areas like arms, legs, and abdomen. This non-invasive procedure requires no downtime and maintains 95% patient satisfaction rates.
Regenerative Medicine
Our regenerative treatments harness the body's healing properties through platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and hormone replacement therapies. These solutions address hair loss, skin rejuvenation, and sexual wellness using natural biological components. Patients receive comprehensive consultations to determine suitability for these advanced treatment options.

Report
Dr. Key seems to refer most of his treatments to his staff of "technicians, " who seem to have no formal training. I do not recommend Key Laser. I paid $150 to have a small spot on the bridge of my nose removed (I was told it is a cherry angioma). The technician, who said her last job was as a bartender, chose a Broadband Laser treatment as a first choice for me, saying that there were other treatments we could try if this treatment was not successful.
She neglected to say that I would be charged $150 each time I came in, regardless of the outcome of her suggested treatment. Key Laser advertises itself as a medical facility, but appears to be more interested in payment than in successful outcomes for its customers.

I got the "diamond glow" facial. The technician seemed to know what she was doing, but the entire procedure was incredibly lack luster for the price. $160 for me to wash my own face in a bathroom, have her do the microdermabrasion for 10 minutes, wear a face mask for 10 min and then have her simply apply skin care products and send me on my way. What?!

I came in for light therapy for rosacea, referred here by my dermatologist. I paid for 3 rounds of treatment and I am thrilled with the outcome. The staff was so kind and enjoyable to spend time with throughout the experience. Products were recommended to me, but never in a pushy way, and I am so happy with all of them that I'm planning to use the toner and moisturizer and tinted sunscreen from now on. My skin hasn't looked this good in 5+ years.

Dr Hicks is knowledgeable, friendly and professional. She takes time to listen and answer all questions. I don't hesitate to refer friends to Key Laser as they will custom care based on your needs.
