At Rachel Coker Medical Aesthetics in Chattanooga, we utilize state-of-the-art laser and light-based technologies to address a wide range of skin concerns and provide effective hair reduction. As a Nurse Practitioner, Rachel Coker customizes each laser treatment plan, ensuring optimal safety and results tailored to your unique skin type and aesthetic goals.
Laser and light-based therapies operate by delivering concentrated energy to specific targets within the skin, such as pigment, blood vessels, or hair follicles. This controlled energy stimulates natural regenerative processes or selectively damages unwanted elements, leading to significant improvements in skin health, tone, texture, and permanent hair reduction.
We proudly feature the Sciton® laser platform, known for its versatility, precision, and proven efficacy in delivering exceptional aesthetic outcomes.
MOXI is a gentle, non-ablative fractional laser designed to revitalize and refresh your skin with minimal downtime. It’s an ideal treatment for patients seeking to prevent the visible signs of aging, correct early sun damage, and improve overall skin tone and texture. MOXI works by creating microscopic channels in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing process to produce new, healthier skin cells and stimulate collagen.
BBL (BroadBand Light) is a revolutionary intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy that targets a broad range of skin conditions caused by aging, sun exposure, and genetic predisposition. Unlike a laser, BBL uses a broad spectrum of light delivered in precise pulses to heat the upper layers of the skin. This process stimulates cell regeneration and effectively treats various skin concerns.
BBL treatments leave your skin clearer, smoother, and more radiant, often described as a “photofacial.”
Laser Hair Removal offers a long-term solution for unwanted body and facial hair. This treatment utilizes focused laser energy to target and heat the melanin (pigment) within the hair follicle. The heat damages the follicle, inhibiting future hair growth. Because the laser targets hair in its active growth phase, multiple sessions are required to achieve optimal and lasting results.
Common Treatment Areas: Legs, underarms, bikini area, back, chest, upper lip, chin.
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation with Rachel Coker, NP. She will assess your skin, discuss your concerns, and determine the most appropriate laser technology and customized treatment plan for you.
During Treatment: You will wear protective eyewear. Depending on the treatment, you may feel a warm sensation or a mild “snapping” sensation. Most procedures are well-tolerated.
Pre and Post Care: Specific pre- and post-care instructions will be provided to ensure the best results and minimize potential side effects. These typically include avoiding sun exposure, certain skincare products, and rigorous activity for a short period. Adherence to these guidelines is crucial for safe and effective outcomes.
