Beautiful, healthy skin requires more than basic maintenance–it demands expert medical care that addresses both cosmetic concerns and underlying skin health. At Centre Épiderme, our exclusive medical spa within Chrisalys, we offer advanced skin treatments that go beyond traditional spa services.
Dr. David N. Sayah is a board-certified plastic surgeon with over 26 years of experience. His extensive training at UCLA Medical Center, fellowship in the American College of Surgeons, and published research in wound healing and tissue regeneration ensure that all treatments are administered with medical precision and deep understanding of skin biology. We provide comprehensive skin care solutions meeting cosmetic and medical needs for patients throughout Los Angeles and Beverly Hills.
Specialized Skin Treatment Services
Centre Épiderme offers advanced medical treatments addressing various skin concerns under physician supervision with medical-grade technology and protocols.
Pre-Cancerous Skin Therapy
Pre-cancerous skin lesions, such as Actinic Keratosis, require medical attention to prevent progression to skin cancer. At Centre Épiderme, we selectively treat these lesions with prescription medications including Effudex or Aldara. These typically invisible lesions “light up” after a series of treatments, making them visible before they eventually disappear. This treatment also reverses other signs of aging such as fine lines and sun damage. This unique therapy is extremely popular among patients with moderate to severe sun damage who want to address both health concerns and cosmetic appearance simultaneously.
Laser Spider Vein Treatment
Small clusters of red, blue, or purple blood vessels appearing on the thighs, legs, and face can significantly affect your confidence and skin appearance. Centre Épiderme treats these vascular concerns using our advanced YAG laser system. This precise technology targets unwanted veins without damaging surrounding tissue, gradually causing treated vessels to fade and be reabsorbed by the body. The treatment is effective for facial spider veins, leg veins, and other vascular irregularities that resist topical treatments. Multiple sessions may be needed depending on the extent and location of vessels being treated.
Laser Tattoo Removal
Unwanted tattoos no longer need to be permanent. Centre Épiderme offers laser tattoo removal using advanced laser systems designed to break down tattoo ink beneath the skin. Different laser wavelengths are typically necessary to treat each particular color within the tattoo, as various pigments respond to specific light frequencies. Black and darker colors generally respond most readily to treatment, while lighter colors may require additional sessions. The number of treatments needed depends on tattoo size, color complexity, ink depth, and your skin type. Dr. Sayah evaluates your specific tattoo during consultation to provide realistic expectations about removal timeline and results.


The Medical Spa Advantage
Our physician-supervised approach distinguishes Centre Épiderme treatments from typical spa services. Dr. Sayah’s surgical expertise provides comprehensive understanding of skin anatomy, tissue healing, and aesthetic outcomes that inform every treatment protocol.
Benefits of Physician-Supervised Care:
- Medical evaluation ensuring appropriate treatment selection for your concerns
- Advanced medical-grade equipment unavailable at traditional spas
- Prescription-strength treatments for superior therapeutic results
- Safe, effective protocols administered by trained medical professionals
- Integration with other aesthetic procedures when comprehensive rejuvenation benefits you
- Ongoing monitoring and adjustment of treatment plans for optimal outcomes
What to Expect at Our Beverly Hills Spa
Your journey begins with thorough consultation and skin evaluation. Dr. Sayah examines your skin, discusses your concerns and goals, and recommends treatments most likely to achieve desired outcomes. For pre-cancerous therapy, we explain the treatment process, expected skin response, and post-care requirements. Laser treatments involve brief sessions with targeted energy delivery to treatment areas. Recovery varies by procedure, with most treatments allowing immediate return to normal activities with specific aftercare instructions.
Treatment frequency and duration depend on the specific procedure and your individual response. Pre-cancerous therapy typically involves a series of applications over several weeks. Spider vein treatment may require multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart. Tattoo removal generally needs multiple treatments spaced 6-8 weeks apart to allow skin healing between sessions.
Maintaining Your Skin Treatment Results
Results from medical skin treatments develop progressively as your body responds to therapy. Pre-cancerous lesions resolve over the treatment course while skin quality improves. Spider veins gradually fade as treated vessels are reabsorbed. Tattoo ink progressively breaks down with each laser session. Following prescribed aftercare instructions, avoiding sun exposure, and maintaining healthy skincare habits optimize treatment outcomes and support long-term skin health.
