FEATURED PROCEDURE
Fraxel Laser

The Fraxel laser diminishes the appearance of age spots, sun damage, fine lines, scars and improves tone and texture of skin. The Fraxel laser can also treat actinic keratoses, pre-cancerous growths that form due to excessive sun exposure, which may turn into skin cancer. The laser works by injuring your skin with microscopic laser columns while leaving the surrounding skin untouched. Your body then repairs the damage with new, fresh, healthy skin. Treatment can be customized based on your needs and areas of concern. The Fraxel laser can be used to treat many areas of the body including face, chest, hands, arms and legs. 

PSORIASIS

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory condition which causes red thick scaly patches on the skin. It is caused by an overactive immune system which causes skin cells to replicate up to ten times faster than normal cells. The extra amount of skin cells creates the red, thick, raised flaky patches. The most common sites for psoriasis are the elbows, knees and scalp. The red patches can be itchy and often form at areas of skin injury. The treatment for psoriasis includes topical medications, light therapy, or systemic therapy and biologics. The treatment is determined by the severity and extent of psoriasis. Patients with psoriasis have an increased chance of developing other health conditions including psoriatic arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and metabolic syndrome (which includes hypertension, obesity, cardiovascular disease, hyperlipidemia, gout and type 2 diabetes.
