Ardor Laser and Skin Care recently opened on the East Side, offering natural-looking enhancements for younger and aging adults. Founder Tasha Thompson-Phillips, a registered nurse with more than 20 years’ experience, is trained in several advanced skincare treatments, including Aerolase laser technology, to provide noninvasive alternatives to cosmetic surgery.

 “Our mission is to provide the highest-quality care that makes our clients feel warm, welcome, comfortable and secure,” Thompson-Phillips says. “Many skin products nowadays are filled with chemicals that don’t actually help you. Quality should never be a compromise. Whatever your skincare need, we have a treatment, with products and services you can trust.”

Among the treatments offered at Ardor are Aerolase Neo and Aerolase Era—the most modern laser technologies, Thompson-Phillips says—which can improve the skin by alleviating wrinkles, fine lines, acne, psoriasis, rosacea and similar issues. Aerolase technology can also be used for hair removal. 

Ardor’s injectable therapies include Botox, Xeomin, Juvéderm and Revanesse, which are designed to smooth and fill facial lines for a fresher, more refined appearance. 

Its facials include an anti-aging treatment, a vitamin C treatment and its most comprehensive treatment, the Red Carpet—all designed to minimize the appearance of fine lines, dull skin and dark circles.
