FEATURED PROCEDURE
Kybella
KYBELLA is a prescription medication, deoxycholic acid, used to reduce submental fat (double chin). KYBELLA permanently destroys fat cells when injected into the fat below the chin. Once those fat cells are destroyed the body will process and eliminate them leaving you with a noticeable reduction in the fullness under your chin. There is no down time with the treatment and the most common adverse affect after treatment is swelling in the area and tenderness. Schedule a consultation to see if KYBELLA is right for you.
Herpes Simplex Virus
Herpes simplex is a viral infection that causes localized blistering to the skin. There are two types of herpes simplex virus (HSV) Type 1 which is associated with oral and facial infections and Type 2 which is associated with genital and rectal infections. However the location of the infection is not always indicative of the type as either type of virus can affect any area of the skin or mucous membrane. Once you have HSV the virus remains in your nerve cells inactive. When the virus is reactivated it follows the nerves onto the skin and multiplies causing the blister. HSV is infectious for 7-12 days and can be spread by direct or indirect contact. One can spread the infection without an active outbreak as asymptomatic shedding of the virus occurs in the saliva or genital secretions. Asymptomatic shedding is less likely as the amount of virus being shed is one hundred to one thousand times less then when it’s active. Herpes labialis is the most common manifestation of recurrent HSV 1 infection commonly referred to as “cold sores". Prior to the blister developing most people feel prodromal symptoms such as pain, tingling, burning at the affected site. To treat herpes simplex virus, one can take an oral anti viral medication. To be most effective the anti viral should be started at the first onset of prodromal symptoms prior to the blister developing.
