- BotoxBotox® has helped millions of women and men worldwide fight facial wrinkles and rejuvenate their appearance. When injected into overactive facial muscles, Botox® temporarily causes the muscles to relax, softening your expressions and smoothing lines and wrinkles in the process. There is minimal discomfort during treatment and you can return to normal activity immediately. The wrinkle-reducing effects of Botox® last three to four months on average before the next treatment is required to maintain results. In the hands of a licensed and experienced injector, Botox® is a safe and convenient procedure that provides natural-looking rejuvenation with no downtime.

- UlcerAn ulcer is a wound on the surface of your skin or another organ that resembles an open sore. “Ulceration†is the process of that wound forming. Many people are familiar with the peptic ulcers, or the type of ulcers that form in the stomach, intestine, or esophagus, but venous (leg) and arterial (ankle, feet, toes, and heels) ulcers are also extremely common in the general population.
- LesionsThe XEO uses a laser beam that targets blood vessels and pigment in the skin. When we use the XEO laser for broken capillaries, the laser is absorbed by an abnormal blood vessel and the light is converted into heat energy, which causes the vessel to collapse and seal shut. Eventually, the unwanted vessel is absorbed by the body and the skin returns to its natural color. Pigmented lesions are treated with the Limelight handpiece. The light is absorbed by cells containing excessive concentrations of pigment (melanin) and generates heat. The pigmented lesion reacts by darkening at first, then flaking off to restore an even, natural skin tone. The Prowave handpiece is used for laser hair removal on most skin types.

- Physical TherapyWhen the venous studies are normal, and other general medical causes for swelling are absent, the diagnosis is often lymphedema. Physical therapy with manual lymphatic drainage and decongestive therapy is instrumental in mobilizing the lymphedema. We work closely with several centers that excel in these options for patients with lymphedema.
