Welcome!
. . . to West Michigan's premiere skin treatment center and medical spa. If you want to look great and feel great, this is the place to begin! As board-certified dermatologists, our physicians are the lakeshore’s experts in cosmetic, laser, medical and surgical treatment of the skin. Whether you have a medical skin condition or are pursuing cosmetic improvement, you can be confident that with us, you are getting the safest, most effective treatment available.
Before allowing someone to treat your skin, the first question you should ask is: “are you a board-certified dermatologist?†Unlike many non-dermatologists who make misleading claims about “specialized training†or certification, Drs. Van Ittersum, Gielczyk and Vis are genuine skin and laser specialists, something only a small group of physicians certified by the American Board of Dermatology can claim.
Take the first steps toward the beautiful skin you’ve always wanted with a free consultation with our licensed estheticians, and visit our state-of-the-art laser and medical spa for the ultimate in relaxation and pampering. We offer an extensive menu of massage therapy, facial and body treatments, manicures and pedicures, complemented by a complete line of physician-grade skin care products and mineral cosmetics for at-home skin perfection. Check our website periodically or stop in to learn about our monthly specials. When it comes to your appearance, don’t you deserve the best—at Lakeshore Dermatology Laser & Medical Spa?
Enhance and restore natural beauty to your skin. Our professionally-trained estheticians are here to recommend the skin care treatments and products best suited for you to achieve and maintain healthy, radiant and youthful-looking skin.
Laser Hair Removal
Image related to Laser hair removal has become a very popular way to provide long-term reduction of hair in such areas as:
* Upper Lip
* Face
* Underarms
* Back
* Bikini Line
* Legs
Laser treatment is generally safe, and is much faster and more comfortable than traditional methods like electrolysis. Thinning and eliminating hair helps not only one’s appearance but also minimizes problems like ingrown hairs which can follow waxing, shaving, and tweezing. It can also be an extremely effective treatment for pseudofolliculitis barbae (“razor bumpsâ€).
At Lakeshore Dermatology Laser & Medical Spa, we use a variety of lasers for hair reduction. These allow us to obtain good results with both coarse and fine hair, even in people with darker skin tones. A recent study demonstrated that certain lasers are vastly superior to others (especially IPL) for hair removal. Accordingly, we use the most effective laser possible for your skin type. If you have previously tried laser hair removal from a non-dermatologist provider and were dissatisfied with the results, it may have been because an inferior laser was used, or the settings on an otherwise good laser were inadequate. Dr. Van Ittersum has successfully treated many patients who had previously had inadequate treatments from other so-called laser centers and medical spas.
