Scars Erasing
Scars can cause physical as well as emotional discomfort. Scarring is a natural part of the healing process after an injury. The scar’s appearance and its treatment depend on multiple factors, including the depth and size of the wound, its location, and the age, sex, and genetics of the patient.
The different types of scars include:
Keloid scars: Resulting from an overly aggressive healing process, these scars extend beyond the site of the original injury. They may hamper movement. They are most common among people with dark skin.
Contracture scars: These scars form on burned skin. As they tighten, they can impair movement. Scarring also goes deeper, affecting muscles and nerves.
Hypertrophic scars: These are raised, red scars that are similar to keloids but do not go beyond the boundary of the injury.
Acne scars: Scars can range from deep pits to those that are angular or wavelike in appearance.
You don’t have to live with embarrassing scars. We have the expertise and experience by which specialized lasers, fillers, light therapy and skin rejuvenation procedures greatly erase or improve the appearance of unsightly, visible scars.
Mole Removal
Moles are skin lesions that commonly occur on the surface of the skin. These lesions are comprised of cells which produce pigments that create the discoloration that many patients notice. When the cells grow too close together in groups or clusters, they appear above the skin as a mole.
Mole Removal Procedure
Mole removal is a minor surgical procedure. Your doctor numbs the area around the mole and cuts it out, along with a margin of healthy skin if necessary. The mole removal process is extremely safe and the recovery time is minimal to none!
