Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon • ASPS & ASAPS MemberNo matter what procedure you undergo with Dr. Cash, one thing is for certain—it’s all about you. She takes the time to get to know you as more than a patient, creating a treatment plan that’s just the right fit.
AVAVA is a non-ablative laser treatment that delivers focused energy into the dermis, where collagen and elastin are produced, while preserving the skin surface. By targeting deeper layers of skin without ablating the top layer, AVAVA helps improve overall skin quality with less downtime than more aggressive resurfacing treatments.
This makes AVAVA a strong option for patients who want improvement in texture, tone, pores, mild laxity, and skin quality over time through collagen remodeling.
Dr. Cash offers AVAVA because it allows for targeted, collagen-focused skin rejuvenation with a customizable treatment approach. In practice, it has become a valuable option for patients who want to improve skin texture, firmness, and overall skin quality without the recovery associated with more aggressive laser procedures.
Because AVAVA can be adjusted based on skin type, treatment area, and the concerns being addressed, it works well as both a stand-alone treatment and as part of a more comprehensive facial rejuvenation plan.
AVAVA stands out because it is designed to deliver controlled, targeted energy deep into the skin while leaving the surface intact. That allows treatment to focus on collagen remodeling and skin-quality improvement with a favorable recovery profile.
At Camille Cash, M.D., this treatment is especially useful for patients who want a more refined skin texture, tighter-looking skin, improvement in pores or acne scarring, and a healthier overall skin appearance without a more aggressive resurfacing approach.
In our practice, AVAVA is most often used to improve:
Rather than addressing only one isolated concern, AVAVA is often chosen for patients who want broader improvement in skin quality, brightness, smoothness, and firmness.
AVAVA may be a good option for adults in good health who want to improve skin quality with a non-ablative treatment and limited downtime. In Dr. Cash’s practice, strong candidates often include patients who are starting to notice textural changes, enlarged pores, early looseness, acne-scar texture, or a general loss of firmness and radiance.
It may also be recommended for patients who want collagen-focused skin rejuvenation after plastic surgery or as part of a broader facial rejuvenation plan. During your consultation, Dr. Cash and her team will evaluate your skin, discuss your concerns, and determine whether AVAVA is the right option for your goals and skin type.
One of the key advantages of AVAVA is that it can be used safely on a wide range of skin tones. That makes it an important option for patients who may not be ideal candidates for every resurfacing treatment but still want improvement in texture, tone, pores, and firmness.
AVAVA is performed in the office and typically takes about 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Before treatment, the skin is cleansed and a topical numbing cream is applied to maximize comfort. During treatment, the handpiece is passed across the treatment area while delivering focused energy into the skin.
Most patients describe the treatment as very tolerable, with a sensation of warmth along with cooling from the device.
For most patients, a series of 2 to 3 treatments spaced about 6 to 8 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. Final recommendations depend on the treatment area, the severity of the concern being treated, and your overall skin-rejuvenation goals.
AVAVA is a low-downtime treatment. After your session, the skin may feel warm and appear mildly red or slightly swollen, similar to a mild sunburn, for the first few days.
Because the skin surface remains intact, social downtime is generally limited compared with more aggressive resurfacing treatments.
Some patients notice that their skin looks brighter, smoother, and more refreshed early in the recovery process. Continued improvement in tone, texture, firmness, and overall skin quality develops gradually over time as collagen remodeling continues.
Many patients achieve the best outcome with a series of treatments rather than a single session.
Yes. AVAVA can be performed as a stand-alone treatment, but it is also commonly incorporated into a more comprehensive treatment plan when appropriate. Depending on your goals, Dr. Cash may recommend pairing AVAVA with neuromodulators such as BOTOX® Cosmetic, dermal fillers, medical-grade skincare, or other in-office treatments.
Treatment recommendations are always individualized. The decision to use AVAVA alone or in combination with other options depends on your concerns, anatomy, skin quality, and long-term goals.
Patients often choose AVAVA to:
As the practice has gained more experience with AVAVA, it has become clear that this treatment is especially useful for patients who want overall skin-quality improvement rather than correction of only one isolated issue. In many cases, the best candidates are patients concerned with texture, pores, early laxity, acne-scar texture, or dullness who want collagen stimulation with limited downtime.
This experience has also made AVAVA a valuable option within broader treatment planning, especially when the goal is healthier, smoother, tighter-looking skin without a more aggressive resurfacing approach.
