If you have never had a laser skin treatment before, it might seem like a scary proposition at first. However, as many of our patients will tell you, procedures like laser hair removal can be life-changing. Laser skin services are not only effective - they're growing in popularity. According to a study, nearly 4.1 million laser skin services were performed in 2019. Whether you're looking to remove unwanted hair or achieve a more unified skin tone, laser services can help.
Some of the most requested laser skin services at Southern Cosmetic Laser include:
Unwanted hair. You know it's there, and just about every day, you've got to shave, pluck, and tweeze your way to removing it. But what if we told you there was a permanent solution to reduce your unwanted hair problem?
At Southern Cosmetic Laser, our laser hair removal services target hair follicles giving your skin the smooth, silky feel you've may desire. Laser hair removal services save you time in shaving - a proposition that seemed impossible a few years ago.
Using the most up-to-date lasers for our services, we offer a permanent hair-reduction solution for all skin types, making it a quick, effective treatment for any ethnicity. Our state-of-the-art laser technologies emit a laser beam that penetrates your hair follicles, destroying the root while preserving your skin.
Our clients are ditching their razors and choosing our lasers to remove hair from their bikini lines, underarms,
upper lips, legs, arms, face, chest and back.
A few benefits of laser hair removal include:
If this is your first foray into laser hair removal services, you're probably wondering how it all works.
Don't worry; we've got you covered!
Laser hair removal is a medical procedure that uses a laser, or concentrated beam of light, to remove unwanted hair on your body. During our laser hair removal services, the light from the laser is absorbed by the melanin in your hair. That light is then converted to heat, which damages your hair follicles, preventing future hair growth. Most laser hair removal services are quick and can be completed in about 30 minutes. This treatment can be accomplished during a lunch break or quickly after work.
Southern Cosmetic Laser hair removal involves several steps. Once you schedule an appointment, you will need to shave prior to your treatment. You will need to avoid plucking, waxing, threading and depilatory creams at least three weeks prior to treatment. During your day of treatment, the following will occur:
Services usually require an average of six to eight sessions with periodic touchups. However, sessions vary depending on your schedule and the area of your body that needs treatment. You may need more services on areas where hair grows quickly, like your upper lip. Some areas, like places on your back, will not require as many laser treatment sessions.
We offer the most advanced skin rejuvenation services for all skin types for both men and women. We believe in these 3 Basic Principles of Aging!
At Southern Cosmetic Laser we can't turn back the hands of time, but we've seen by applying these three steps in a systematic approach you can achieve long lasting, amazing more youthful results. You may even have people say to you, "Wow, you look amazing! What's your secret?"
Natural aging and a lifetime of involuntary facial muscle actions contribute to the formation of tiny wrinkles, creases and fine lines that can make you look angry, tired or older than you feel. Over time skin loses volume, collagen and elastin and can become thinner and begin to sag.
At Southern Cosmetic Laser, our skin rejuvenation services are some of the most popular laser skin services offered. Skin rejuvenation is a non-surgical treatment that helps you look as vibrant as you feel. Unlike traditional cosmetic surgeries, proper skin rejuvenation doesn't require you to put your skin or health at risk to achieve beautiful results. Instead, our skin rejuvenation options are safe and offer multiple benefits for people suffering from skin defects like scarring, acne and aging.
We can rejuvenate your skin using a variety of laser skin services in Goose Creek, including resurfacing, energy-based laser tightening and lifting, and other laser-based services.
There are numerous benefits to skin rejuvenation, including:

Dermal fillers have changed the face of the medical cosmetic industry. About 10 million dermal services are applied every year. Fillers are used in shaping the face, lifting, volumizing and minimizing wrinkles. Fillers replace fat and bone less, lift and support. When combined with laser skin services and neurotoxins our patients can stick to an easy regimen that helps them maintain gorgeous, smooth skin.
Many of our patients know they want anti-aging services like fillers to help smooth out wrinkles and help lift. However, they don't know how dermal fillers, or injectables, work.
As people age, they lose collagen, elastin, and perhaps more importantly, hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid helps retain moisture in your skin. Injectables that utilize hyaluronic acid and other substances help replace lost moisture, resulting in fuller, more radiant skin. Injectables and fillers can also help add extra volume to your lips and cheeks and firm up saggy skin.
Often, our patients see results after a single treatment, which can last as long as 9 to 18 months. Our patients choose Southern Cosmetic Laser because our fillers give a natural-looking result without affecting facial expressions, making for a discreet yet effective treatment.
We discuss and explain various types of fillers and decide which is best for you.
At Southern Cosmetic Laser, we offer personalized filler services for a number of problem areas, such as:
Finding the right filler can be confusing, but our experienced medical team will work with you to discover the best treatment options for your goals. Some of our most popular injectable services include:
Dermal Fillers: Products such as Juvederm XC, Radiesse, Bellafill and Restylane are used for facial lifting and contouring. They are great for filling in thin lips, tightening saggy skin, helping with skin laxity, and more.
Botox: Botox and similar products like Jeuveau, Dysport, and Xeomin are wrinkle-smoothing neuromodulators that treat horizontal lines across the forehead. They are also very effective at reducing crow's feet and perpendicular frown lines between your eyebrows and other areas.
Nova Threads: This is another non-surgical option that can create an immediate facelift, which tightens and smooths your skin. Products like Nova Lyft and Nova Mesh are excellent if you have saggy skin, thin lips, or need collagen stimulation. We help you decided which is best for your face and skin type.
B12 Shots: B12 works wonderfully and promotes the growth of healthy skin cells, which repair damaged skin. Aging and certain medical conditions affect your body's ability to absorb B12, leaving you tired and forgetful. Regular B12 injections from Southern Cosmetic Laser help your body absorb the B12 it needs. That way, you're more alert during the day and benefit from healthier skin, nails, and hair.
Getting a tattoo is an art. Removing a tattoo is another art. There are numerous variables that are considered in laser tattoo removal. Southern Cosmetic Laser is compassionate in helping rid those unwanted tattoos. We use superior technologies to customize services for the patient and their tattoo.

GOOSE CREEK, S.C. (WCSC) - The City of Goose Creek Fire Department is asking residents and business owners for input to help create the department’s first strategic plan.
City of Goose Creek Fire Chief Mike Nixon said the purpose of the plan is to get everyone in the department on the same page. They’ll get input from members of the department, the City of Goose Creek residents and business owners.
The survey asks what they need to work on and what they are doing well. That feedback will help them make a plan that will provide a clear and concise path moving forward. Nixon said it would also consider risk factors that could be faced in the future whether it’s internal or external with a response.
“Where are we excelling at, where are we failing at and kind of find a way to solve those issues. It could be something that people have had interactions with us on a fire scene where they thought we performed average. We don’t want to be average, we want to be above average,” Nixon said.
Once the survey closes they plan on having focus groups within the department to analyze the information and come up with a plan.
“We’re going to all sit down separately with the information that we’ve received from all of the surveys internal and external and we’re going to deep dive into every specific content point and we’re going to break them down and we’re going to figure out where we really need to focus we’re doing or at first try to problem solve those issues and come up with solutions for that,” Nixon said.
There is no set deadline for that set, but once it’s complete it will be posted for anyone to see. They plan to annually review it and about every three years create a new one.
You can take this 10-question survey starting Feb. 6, for 30 days. It’s available in three languages and you can drop off the paper version at city hall or online here.

COLUMBIA, SC (WOLO) — On Tuesday, the Trump Administration sent the first group of migrant detainees to Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, which is being used as a large scale immigration detention center.
“There’s a lot of space to accommodate a lot of people, yeah, so we’re going to use it,” says President Trump from the Oval Office.
This, following his executive order on January 20th to crackdown on illegal immigration.
Also on Tuesday, Attorney General Alan Wilson sent a letter to all 46 sheriffs across SC — encouraging them to apply for ICE’s “Section 287-G Program” — which allows local law enforcement to perform and help in certain immigration efforts.
According to the official website of “Immigration and Customs Enforcement,” only Horry, Lexington, and York counties are currently signed up for the program.
Christale Spain, Chair of the SC Democratic Party, says there’s a lot of misinformation out there regarding the raids causing fear throughout certain communities.
“You know I just think people are scared, and emotionally feel afraid. We don’t know what’s happening with our country, and I think the way to combat that, as far as the Democratic Party goes, is to put out factual information,” she says.
With recent ICE raids happening as nearby as Goose Creek, SC and Savannah, Georgia, the SC Democratic Party wants legal community members to know their rights — should an ICE agent come to their door.
“To know that they don’t have to open the door for ICE unless they have a signed warrant from a judge, and they do have the right to remain silent, and they are not required to answer questions about their immigration status. And don’t sign anything without legal representation,” says Spain, adding, if you’re able to record the ICE raid safely, to do so.
“And report those incidents to immigrant rights organizations and legal groups,” she says.
According to Spain, adding to fear mongering regarding ICE raids are impersonators, with three men recently arrested for pretending to be an ICE agent. This includes 33-year-old Sean-Michael Johnson from Charleston County.
Congresswoman Nancy Mace has also taken part in raids, as she posted on X.
“If there aren’t safe guard rails put up on some of this, this craziness, you know, Americans are going to get swept up into this, and that…that should be a concern for everybody,” says Spain.
If you’d like more information, a free discussion regarding ICE raids will be held at the Richland County Public Library on Saturday, February 8th at 2:30 p.m.

GOOSE CREEK, S.C. (WCSC) - The largest military shipbuilder in the U.S. is expanding its operations in Goose Creek with plans to create more than 250 jobs.
HII recently purchased the assets of W International, a metal fabrication facility located on Bushy Park Road that specializes in the manufacturing of shipbuilding structures, modules and assemblies.
The site will now be known as Newport News Shipbuilding-Charleston Operations and will operate under HII’s Newport News Shipbuilding division.
Berkeley County Economic Development Director, John Williams, said HII will bring all existing workforce, resources, and contracts with them, including contracts they already have with the U.S. military.
“They purchased the company and all the assets. The building that they have in place, all the equipment that they have in place, all of the contracts that they currently have, many of which are with the U.S. military, they’re assuming all of that. They’re going to take what they have and they’re going to grow it,” he said.
Williams said because HII is expanding operations, they’re increasing their capital investment to $100 million. He added they also plan to achieve W International’s failed goal of creating 600 positions.
“This is all kinds of trades. It’s not just welders. I mean, they need electricians, they need highly skilled machinists. They need pretty much any of the trades that you can think of that are going to be housed there and going to be needed by them. And, these are high-paying jobs. We’re not looking to try to recruit low-paying jobs in this area or lots of jobs. We want a good number of jobs, and we want good-paying jobs. And that’s why HII checks the box so well because they are... It’s a great company, long-standing, safe jobs, stable jobs, and high-paying jobs,” Williams said.
He said the site is perfect to support HII and all of their operations, and has many benefits like barge access, deep water access and a nearby railroad.
“That park is really desirable. The fact that they got deep water access, and so you can bring ships, you can bring submarines, you can bring any of those types of vessels that need water for transportation, you can bring them in there. If you’ve got pieces of equipment or engines that are too large to put either on the highway, on a truck, or on a rail, you can always put them on a barge and carry them by water. Bushy Park’s ability to barge different pieces of equipment checks the box for the HII,” Williams said.
He said all of these factors are important when thinking about transporting the type of giant vessels and submarines like HII does.

A Goose Creek shopping center has changed hands for $8 million.
The Food Lion-anchored plaza at 1316 Red Bank Road consists of 62,193 square feet of space, with the grocery store taking up slightly more than half. Other tenants include a Cricket, a liquor store, H&R Block, Rent-A-Center, a nail salon and a dry cleaner.
A Circle K convenience store outparcel fronts the property at Red Bank and Harbour Lake Drive.
The new owner is Mount Pleasant-based Scrooge Industries LLC, which purchased the property for a family trust and is affiliated with Mount Pleasant-based Paragano Associates. The seller was Harbour Lake Plaza Venture.
Ani Paulson and Ally Paragano with Marcus & Millichap helped close the deal, as well as the $4.2 million sale of a Big Lots-anchored retail center in West Columbia in early December and the $18.75 million sale of The Shoppes at Montague Corners in North Charleston in July.
Meanwhile, another Food Lion-anchored shopping center is on the market. Island Plaza at 1291 Folly Road on James Island is home to Gold's Gym, Dollar Tree, Cato, Fam's Brewing Co. and Scramblers Golf Club.
Dog and Duck is opening a location in Nexton in Summerville.
Rod Bradley, who co-owns the restaurant chain with Andy Reed, said he's targeting a November opening.
The new restaurant at 430 Cross Park Lane will be 4,000 square feet. Bryan Fogle with Coldwell Banker Commercial Atlantic represented Dog and Duck and Mackenzie Deutsch with Bridge Commercial represented the seller.
The restaurant will be Bradley and Reed's fifth location, with others in Charleston, Mount Pleasant and Moncks Corner. The Park West site is temporarily closed for repairs after an electrical fire.
Beyond Distilling is making spirits bright this holiday season.
The North Charleston distillery has teamed up with The Loutrel to create a signature liquor for the downtown Charleston hotel.
The Garden Reserve Bourbon Whiskey is a single-barrel, locally aged concoction.
Beyond is a small manufacturer of 12 employees, most of whom have intellectual disabilities. The company distills gin, rum and whiskey on-site for sale around the U.S.
"Everything is done by hand," owner Tyler LaCorta said.
The collaboration with The Loutrel has been in the works for years, he added, and now is finally ready to be served at the Veranda Lounge at The Loutrel.
Everything But Water, which has been in business for 15 years, has moved from The Shops at The Charleston Place to space across the road at 241 King St.
The shop sells designer swimwear, resort wear and accessories year-round.
Shoppers can select from bikinis and one-piece bathing suits — including in D+ cup sizes — sundresses, cover-ups, hats, jewelry, sandals and more.
A new hair salon is coming to Goose Creek.
KD Studio has leased 1,163 square feet of space at 108 Central Ave. The tenant was represented by Oswald Cooke & Associates. Wellbrick Properties represented the landlord.
