Do your eyes feel dry, painful, or uncomfortable?

Three advanced in-office therapies, combined into one protocol — targeted relief for chronic dry eye and MGD.

Disturbance in the eye’s microbiome initiates a cascade of inflammation, culminating in the onset of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). This dysfunction results in a deficiency in lipid production, exacerbating dryness. Up to 86% of dry eye is caused by MGD.

Therapy 1 of 3

Legacy Wave IPL — Intense Pulsed Light Therapy

Rejuvenate eyes and skin with IPL therapy. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses pulses of light to target inflammation and small, visible blood vessels on the skin. By reducing inflammation around the eyes, IPL helps improve dry eye.

At the same time, IPL’s photothermal energy rejuvenates the skin by stimulating natural collagen production and improving circulation. Patients often notice smoother, firmer, and more even skin after just a few sessions.

Photorejuvenation

Healthier, brighter skin.

Reduces facial redness

Targets visible veins and telangiectasias.

Anti-aging

Lifts, firms, and smooths fine lines.

Acne treatment

Targets the bacteria and inflammation behind breakouts.

Pigmentation

MiBoFlo — Meibomian Duct Therapy

MiBoFlo is a therapeutic medical device providing a safe and effective therapy for dry eyes known as Meibomian Duct Therapy. It supplies continuous controlled heat applied to the outer skin of the eyelids along with ultrasound gel for a gentle massage.

Heat is absorbed deep into the tissue and breaks down the hardened lipids in the meibomian glands.

Therapeutic

Targets the underlying cause of MGD.

Lasting benefits

Patients report relief weeks after treatment.

Soothing & relaxing

Feels like a warm massage.

Immediate relief

Many patients feel a difference the same day.

No pain, no downtime

Get back to your day immediately.

Wonderful for eye strain

Great adjunct to screen-heavy work.

Therapy 3 of 3

LLLT — Low-Level Light Therapy (Photobiomodulation)

Low-Level Light Therapy uses gentle, therapeutic light to help the body heal naturally by boosting cellular energy. The light penetrates the skin and targets the mitochondria, which produce ATP, the body’s main source of energy.

Think of LLLT as a form of “light nutrition” for your cells. When exposed to this light, a series of beneficial reactions occur that improve how your cells function and repair themselves.

With consistent and properly guided treatments, the increase in natural energy production helps reduce inflammation and redness (telangiectasia) while improving skin tone, texture, and overall appearance.
