Phoenix Skin Care – Varicose Veins

by Suze Lewis on April 4, 2011

If you’re bothered about the appearance of unsightly varicose veins on your legs, Phoenix skin care treatments provide the perfect solution for spider and varicose vein removal. Those enlarged and twisted veins are common on the legs but can also occur on other parts of the body. Experts think that this condition might be inherited. Pregnancy and staying in one position (such as sitting or standing) for long periods of time can contribute to the appearance of varicose veins. Other factors include menopause and aging. But no matter what age they make their appearance, laser vein removal has proved to be an effective tool.

A person who has varicose veins may experience ankle swelling, pain in the legs, and cramps. If a person experiences inflammation or pain in the area where varicose veins are present, he should immediately seek medical help. Several complications may arise when a person has varicose veins. These complications may include blood clotting, bleeding (accidentally cutting the thin skin on the vein when shaving), and skin ulcers.

To control varicose veins, patients can lie down and prop their legs against a wall for better blood circulation. Wearing compression stockings can also be helpful. However, in cases when varicose veins cannot be controlled, a patient can take advantage of Phoenix skin care procedures which include sclerotherapy for spider veins and laser leg vein removal for varicose veins.

In sclerotherapy, the patient will have to lie on his back while the doctor cleanses the area with alcohol. Next, the doctor will inject hypertonic saline solution in the spider vein, which will cause it to shrink. The doctor will apply compression pads on the area. After the treatment, the patient should wait at least 20 minutes before getting up. Patients are advised to wear compression stockings on the treated area. It is important that patients walk around to prevent blood clotting.

Laser vein removal is the best treatment for varicose veins. A handheld device will target a vein through periodic pulses which will collapse the vein. Results will be seen after 2 or 3 treatments, and anesthesia is not required. The number of treatments may vary depending on the number and size of veins.

These Phoenix skin care treatments are very effective when it comes to treating spider and varicose veins. Sclerotherapy and laser leg vein removal in Phoenix are done only in state of the art facilities by licensed paramedical aestheticians. Take advantage of these treatments to get smoother and blemish-free legs.

Chemical Peels – What Kind Is Right For You?

by Suze Lewis on April 4, 2011

Before choosing to get a chemical peel, you will need to decide which of the different types of chemical peels will be best for you. There are three different levels of chemical peels that you can choose from, with each additional level more concentrated on the amount of damage that they can fix.

Thus, you will need to take a close look at your face and meet with a surgeon in order to discuss the best option for you. In order to prepare yourself for what the surgeon will discuss with you, the following are the three different types of chemical peels that are available for you to choose from.

Light Chemical Peel- A light chemical peel uses natural acids that can treat dry skin, sun-damage, liver spots, and acne. It also can help decrease the intensity of facial wrinkles that form along your face lines, the texture of skin, and the size of your pores. Generally it takes about six to eight peels in order for all effects to be realized with an overall recovery time of the face of a day to two.

Medium Chemical Peel- A medium chemical peel uses trichloroacetic acid and combats the same problems as a light chemical peel while also treating deeper wrinkles and lesions that may be precancerous. Generally a patient only needs the treatment every two to three years and requires a recovery time of the face of about a week.

Deep Chemical Peel- The deep chemical peel is the top level of the different types of chemical peels and uses the common chemical compound Phenol. As the heaviest type of peel, it is able to treat much deeper skin damage and skin layers as well as the other problems addressed by both medium and light peels. Recovery time is usually a month to two months but with great overall results that do not require re-treatment for a significant period of time.

Call North Valley Plastic Surgery Med Spa at 480-447-3893 for more information about chemical peels and the type of chemical peel that is right for your complexion.
