SKIN CONDITIONS
CORRECTIVE Care
Involves treatment of skin conditions that not everyone has or will experience. The following are a few that affect millions of people. If you are one of them, we are here to help.
ROSACEA
A common but poorly understood disorder of the facial skin that is estimated to affect well over 16 million Americans. Its red-faced, acne-like effects wreck havoc on the skin and studies show it can cause significant psychological, social and occupational problems if left untreated. While the cause of rosacea is unknown and there is no cure, help is available that can control the symptoms of this potentially life-disruptive disorder. For best results, individuals should obtain an aesthetic diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan before the signs and symptoms become increasingly severe.
SKIN TAGS
Are common skin growths that can appear on any part of the skin’s surface, but most typically exist in areas where skin may rub against skin, such as the following:
- Eyelids
- Armpits
- Under breasts
- Groin
- Upper chest
- Neck
Removal of these non-cancerous tumors of the skin can be done in our office, most times, in one treatment.
ACNE
Is a skin condition that occurs when hair follicles plug with oil and dead skin cells. It is not dangerous, but can leave skin scars. Acne can affect people of all races and all ages. One susceptibility to acne could also be genetic. Acne can be affected by the following:
- Menstrual cycle
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Hot and humid climates
- Oil-based makeup
- Greasy hair
- Pimple squeezing
Receiving the proper diagnosis is vital in order to begin to heal from this disease. The struggle is real, and we have been there.
COUPEROUS
A skin condition that comes from broken capillaries. These tiny veins are small but numerous and while the veins themselves are still there, when they are broken they cannot go back to their original place. The veins cannot repair themselves and overtime can eventually become deep red to purple in color. These tiny veins are ultra-sensitive to skin changes. Since capillaries are closer to the skin’s natural surface, they are more prone to breakage. This means that couperous is not solely affiliated with aging. All it may take is scrubbing the skin too harshly to break these sensitive veins and/or excessive sun exposure. For some, the broken veins will begin to have a spider-like appearance.
