Alopecia
Starting to see skin on the scalp? Hairline receding? Unable to grow a beard or noticing bald spots in your beard. Alopecia areata? Lose the stress and keep the hair with our TED treatment! The TED uses an ultrasound-based system to painlessly deliver a proprietary formula into the targeted area to stimulate hair growth and enhance existing hair health, making the hair denser and more luscious than ever before. Not only is it quick and simple, the TED can deliver noticeable results in just one session. The TED can also be utilized with exosomes or PRP. Exosomes are either plant based, salmon based or human stem cell based. They deliver growth factors and other signaling molecules to the hair follicles, promoting cell-to-cell communication and initiating repair and regeneration to hair follicles and the scalp.
​
We also use PRP with a mesotherapy gun to first numb the skin and then inject the PRP at the desired depth. One vial of our PRP provides enough volume to inject the anesthetized scalp with over 2000 injections per treatment schedule.
Mole Mapping
Did you know that skin cancer is the most common form of cancer and yet one of the most preventable? Statistically, 1 in every 6 people will develop skin cancer within their lifetime.
What To Expect During Your Visit:
Mole mapping is a vital tool in the early detection and prevention of skin cancer. During your appointment, our physician will carefully examine your skin and take pictures of your moles in order to track any changes. This is usually done once a year however, you may be asked to book sooner based on your individual exam.
Come to your appointment without makeup on and please avoid using tanning products for 1 week before your appointment. It is important to wear loose fitting clothing to your appointment as you will need to undress to your degree of comfort. If you have moles that are covered by your underclothes, please let the assistant know.
This examination takes approximately 1 hour.

Skin Lesion Removal
The Ellman Surgitron is a cutting-edge radio wave surgery device used for precise lesion removal. This technology offers a safe an effective solution for removing unwanted skin lesions while minimizing post-procedure scarring.
How Does Skin Lesion Removal Work?
-
Procedure Preparation: The lesion or skin tag is first prepped with isopropyl alcohol, Stanhexidine or Iodine. Then, a small amount of anesthetic is injected to ensure a painless experience during the removal process.
-
Radio-Surgery Electrode: The Ellman Surgitron employs a surgical electrode that emits radio waves that allow the device to glide through tissue without applying pressure or generating heat.
-
Cauterization: Simultaneously, the treated area is cauterized, minimizing bleeding and promoting faster healing. The result is smoother, more attractive skin with minimal to no scarring.

Appointments are approximately 30 minutes.
