Diode Laser

The diode laser is basically erases small blood vessels on the face. This magic is accomplished with no scarring and minimal inflammation. It is ideal for “spider vessles” on the face or nose, but can also be used for other benign growths as well. It can also be used to treat solar lentigines (sun freckles), sebaceous hyperplasia (enlarged oil glands). and cherry angiomas (small red “blood moles”).

BOTOX® Cosmetic

BOTOX® Cosmetic is an exciting new treatment for the reduction of wrinkles caused by excessive muscle action. Last year, BOTOX® Cosmetic was one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures in the country. Extremely dilute amounts of BOTOX® Cosmetic are injected directly into facial muscles to relax them. This can result in significant improvement of forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet, and wrinkling between the eyebrows. Several quick injections can provide results that last 3-6 months. Side effects are minimal, very unlikely, and usually short lived. This same medicine can also be used for people with hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating of the hands and armpits) who have failed other therapies. Injection of BOTOX® can inhibit sweating for up to 15 months!

Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy is the treatment of dilated blood vessels in the legs by injecting various substances into the blood vessels to scar them down and make them disappear. Despite a proliferation of vascular lasers which are available, injection is still the gold standard to which other methods are compared. Depending on the number and degree of vessels you have to be treated, several sessions may be necessary, but the results can be quite dramatic. In general, lasers may take 2-3 treatments to arrive at the same results as a single session of sclerotherapy. Lasers may also be more painful than sclerotherapy with a needle since the laser has to be shot all along a bloodvessel, instead of just once (with the needle).

We are pleased to offer the services of Kim Cain ARNP who will be offering sclerotherapy in our clinic, at a reduced price. Call today for a consultation.
