- Warts
- CryotherapyWarts can be treated by applying salicylic acid gel, solution or plaster. For adults and older children, cryotherapy (freezing) is generally preferred. Electrosurgery (burning) is another good alternative treatment, while laser treatment can also be used for resistant warts that have not responded to other therapies.
- Medical Weight LossANSWER: Good candidates have noticeable bulges in certain areas they’d like to get rid of. The CoolSculpting fat reduction procedure is specifically designed for those who have unwanted fat that resists diet and exercise. Unlike gastric bypass surgery, the CoolSculpting procedure is not a weight loss solution for people who are obese. It is, however a non-surgical alternative to liposuction. Request a one-on-one consultation with us to determine if the CoolSculpting procedure is right for you.

- Multiple SclerosisPeople who are young, and the elderly, who desire a soft, natural enhancement to their appearance. It is especially beneficial to people who can’t wear other cosmetics due to allergies and skin sensitivities. Active people who want to look their best for activities such as swimming, hiking, biking, tennis, aerobics, and those who don’t want to worry about “sweating off” or reapplying cosmetics are good candidates. Also, the vision impaired who have difficulty applying their cosmetics, and others with motor impairments such as arthritis, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke survivors, and those with unsteady hands who cannot apply their own makeup benefit from this procedure.
- BotoxIf you desire a slight improvement in your look or a “cleaning up” of age-related wrinkles, Botox Cosmetic may be for you. It is an effective and proven option for the patient who is hesitant to undergo surgery, yet wants to erase the deep creases and furrows of the face. Its safety is well established, as it has been used therapeutically for over 20 years.
- Liposuction
- Face LiftNon-surgical facelift is a safe, non-invasive alternative to traditional facelift surgery which avoids the risks of surgery and does not leave scars. Recovery from a traditional facelift can involve weeks or months of intense pain, swelling and bruising, with normal recovery taking one to two months. Most patients who experience the non-surgical facelift return to work in one to three days after treatment. There may be some minor bruising, however there is no significant swelling or pain.

- LesionsSkin cancer can appear anywhere on the body, but is most common on areas exposed to the sun, such as the back and shoulders for men and legs for women. People should watch for moles that change in size, color or shape. An asymmetrical mole, a darkly pigmented mole, or one with an irregular border should raise a red flag. A mole does not have to be raised to be dangerous — in many cases, flat, dark lesions are cause for concern.

- Foot WartsWarts are non-cancerous skin growths caused by a viral infection in the top layer of the skin. Viruses that cause warts are called human papillomavirus (HPV). Warts are usually skin-colored and feel rough to the touch, but they can also be dark, flat and smooth. The appearance of a wart depends on where it is growing. The different kinds of warts include common warts, which usually grow on the fingers, around the nails and on the backs of hands; foot warts (or Plantar warts); and flat warts.
