Cysts, also known as Epidermal Inclusion Cysts, are caused by an occluded hair follicle and sebaceous gland. Cysts typically look like a skin-colored lump under the skin with an overlying opening called a punctum. They occur most commonly on the trunk but can be seen anywhere on the body. Most cysts don’t require any treatment. However, if they become inflamed they can be very painful and require incision and drainage or even antibiotics.

Beautiful Before and After for spider and varicose veins. Great results only after a few treatments!!

Certainly antioxidants and retinols have a place in our skin care regimens but there’s many other products and treatments that are even more effective. Schedule a consultation to learn about your options.

Tinea Pedis, also known as Athlete’s Foot, is a fungal infection of the skin of the feet. The infection is usually acquired by direct contact with the fungus such as by walking barefoot in a public shower or on gym mats but can also occur when sweating excessively or wearing occlusive footwear.. Athlete’s Foot is often itchy and will appear as white scale over the surface of the sole and sides of the feet.

We all need to have realistic expectations. We certainly don’t want to look older than we are but we don’t want to look artificial either. Look your best for your age. Schedule a consultation to learn about some of the best non-invasive ways to keep yourself looking fresh AND natural.

Acne scarring is caused by acne even if you don’t pick your acne. The best way to prevent acne scarring is to treat your acne as soon as possible. However, if you do develop acne scars there are treatment options such as chemical peels, microneedling and laser resurfacing.
