Sclerotherapy
 Sclerotherapy is an injection method used to treat unwanted blood vessels (spider veins). Spider veins are small, thin, superficial, red or blue blood vessels, commonly occurring on the legs, but can sometimes occur on the face or elsewhere. A sclerosing solution is injected into the affected veins, with a very fine needle. The solution irritated the lining of the vessel, causing it to swell, stick together and the blood to thicken. Over a period of weeks, the vessel turns into scar tissue that is absorbed, eventually becoming barely noticeable or invisible. Legs can be treated by the injection of the solution. Sclerotherapy is not recommended for the face, a preferred option is IPL laser.
Microdermabrasion
 Microdermabrasion improves mild to moderate sun damage, scarring, wrinkles and other superficial skin problems. A gentle stream of tiny particles exfoliates the outer layer of skin and provides a fresh, glowing, younger appearance. Only a small amount of skin is removed, so sensitive areas such as the face, chest, neck, arms and hands can be treated. Results are comparable to a light chemical peel and should be immediately visible. Microdermabrasion is often performed in conjunction with other skin renewal procedures, such as laser treatment and chemical peels. Multiple treatments are recommended for full effect.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels remove damaged outer layers of skin on the face to smooth texture, reduce scarring, and remove blemishes and pre-cancerous growths to produce healthy, glowing skin. Peel formulas and strengths are tailored to each patient. Peels can be combined with other procedures such as facelifts for a younger look. They may be covered by insurance if they are performed for medical rather than cosmetic reasons.

Glycolic Peel
The mildest form of chemical peels, glycolic peels gently exfoliate the surface layer of skin to expose the fresher, younger-looking skin beneath. They are ideal for roughness, dryness, sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles. Treatments take only 10-15 minutes. Results are visible immediately, although repeated treatments are recommended for best results.
Skin Tag Removal
Skin tags occur most frequently on the eyelid, face, neck, and underarm. There is no way to prevent skin tags, but they are not cancerous and have no long-term negative effects. Using the laser light, we can safely remove skin tags on your face, neck or body.
The Laser is used over the area for a quick and effective solution to skin tags. There is no down time, little to no scarring, however the treated area could be sensitive for a few days.
Patients usually find their skin tag has been successfully removed. Depending on the size and location more than one treatment may be necessary.
