Laser Vein Reduction
The 1064 YAG Laser Treatment causes selective heating of the target with minimal to no heating of the non-targeted tissue. For vascular lesions, the target is hemoglobin. During treatment, the target absorbs the laser light and rapidly increases in temperature altering the cells of the skin or vessel.
Excimer Laser
Excimer lasers work by delivering high intensity UVB light at 308 nanometers wavelength. This very specific dose directly targets the psoriasis plaques. Throughout the whole procedure, the Excimer lasers never touch the surrounding areas of the psoriasis plaques and reduce the risk of getting any UV radiation exposure.

Photodynamic Therapy
One of the most effective treatment that helps us battle skin cancer at its early stages is photodynamic therapy (PDT). This is a medical treatment that involves the use of a photosensitizing drug and a light source that triggers the active ingredients of the drug.

It has been found that this has been very effective in eliminating superficial skin cancers called actinic keratosis as well as other types of cancer cells and skin conditions.
