Brown and red spot removal is a cosmetic procedure that targets the appearance of skin imperfections, such as age spots, sun damage, and redness caused by broken capillaries.

This treatment is done with the use of lasers that penetrate the skin to break down excess pigments, causing the spots to fade and blend with the surrounding skin. Brown and red spot removal is a quick and effective way to improve the skin's overall tone and texture, leaving it looking brighter, clearer, and more youthful.

This treatment is non-invasive and requires minimal downtime, making it a convenient option for those looking to improve the appearance of their skin without undergoing invasive procedures.

Botox is an FDA-approved prescription medicine that helps reduce skin creases caused by repeated muscle action. Examples include frown lines on the forehead, crow’s feet at the corner of the eyes, and laugh lines at the sides of the mouth. Botox injections halt the signals that cause muscle contractions, which leads to an elimination of frown lines and wrinkles. The effects of Botox can last a few months, after which maintenance treatments are required.

An erbium laser is a type of laser used in medical and cosmetic procedures. It delivers energy in a highly focused beam to remove layers of skin while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue.

Erbium lasers have shorter wavelengths compared to traditional CO2 lasers, which results in less heat damage to the skin. This means less pain, less downtime, and faster healing for patients. Additionally, erbium lasers can treat a variety of skin concerns, such as wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation.

Erbium lasers are often used for facial rejuvenation and are a popular choice among health providers, including dermatologists.

Hair removal refers to the process of eliminating unwanted hair from different parts of the body. It can be done through various methods, such as shaving, waxing, tweezing, laser treatments, and electrolysis. Hair removal is a personal choice and can be done for cosmetic or cultural reasons. It has gained popularity over the years, especially with the availability of various hair removal products and techniques.

Hair removal can help you feel more confident and also reduce the risk of skin irritation and ingrown hairs, making it a convenient option for many.

An IPL laser, also known as an Intense Pulsed Light laser, addresses a wide range of skin concerns and aids in rejuvenating the skin’s overall appearance.

IPL laser technology uses a high-intensity light source to target and treat various skin conditions, including sun damage, discoloration, and spider veins. The technology behind the IPL laser allows it to emit pulses of light, which penetrate the skin's surface and are absorbed by the targeted cells. This results in the destruction of those cells, leaving the surrounding healthy tissue undamaged.

IPL laser treatments are non-invasive and typically require minimal downtime for recovery. While it may take several sessions to achieve optimal results, many patients find that the benefits of IPL laser treatments are well worth the investment.

IV antibiotics are a crucial treatment for severe infections. Unlike oral antibiotics, which are swallowed and then absorbed into the bloodstream, IV antibiotics are administered directly into the vein. This allows for higher concentrations of the medication to reach the site of the infection more quickly, leading to faster and more effective treatment. IV antibiotics are typically reserved for serious infections that require acute care.

An IV infusion is a medical process that involves administering fluids or medication directly into the veins. During an IV infusion, a small plastic tube, called a catheter, is inserted into a vein in the patient's arm or hand. The catheter is then attached to a bag of nutrient-rich fluids or medication and regulated with a pump to deliver the proper dose. IV infusions are a common procedure used for rejuvenation, a natural boost of energy, and dehydration.

IV vitamins and nutritional supplements are a popular and effective way to provide your body with the nutrients it needs.

Unlike traditional oral supplements, IV vitamins and supplements are administered directly into the bloodstream, allowing for quicker and more effective absorption. They can help boost energy levels, improve immunity, and address specific health concerns such as fatigue, depression, or chronic illness.

IV vitamins can also be customized to suit the unique needs of each individual, making them a powerful tool in promoting optimal health and wellness.

Whether you're looking to improve your energy levels, fight off illness, or simply maintain a healthy lifestyle, IV vitamins and supplements can provide the targeted supplementation support your body needs.

IV therapy is a more effective way to put nutrients and vitamins into the body. It is a highly demanded treatment at Peninsula Urgent Care. Vitamin infusions can do wonders for your health. If you’re looking for a health boost, suffer from chronic fatigue, dehydration, a bad hangover, or a nutrient deficiency, IV therapy can help! It is also an excellent treatment for athletes prior to an athletic event, or as a post-event recovery tool.

Depending on your specific needs, our providers can offer you a vitamin infusion designed to tackle the specific issues you are dealing with. An IV will be inserted into a vein in your forearm while you rest in a reclining chair. Once the infusion is complete, you can go about your day as usual.

Juvéderm is a dermal filler that helps restore lost collagen in the face. It works by providing a synthetic version of a naturally produced substance (hyaluronic acid) into specific areas of the face to smoothen lines and restore lost volume. Dermal fillers can also be used to plump lips and make the face appear more symmetrical. The result is a younger, more aesthetically pleasing face. The effects of Juvéderm can last from a few months to years depending on the type of filler used.

Latisse is an FDA-approved prescription medicine that can help grow long, voluminous eyelashes. This serum is applied daily along the upper eyelid near the roots of the eyelashes. Over time, it lengthens, thickens, and darkens the natural lashes.

Melasma treatment is a type of therapy that helps to reduce the appearance of dark skin pigmentation that is often caused by hormonal changes. Also called “pregnancy mask,” melasma is characterized by dark pigmentation around the nose and mouth. Melasma treatment can be an effective way to improve the appearance of the skin and boost self-confidence.

One of the most common forms of melasma treatment is the use of topical creams and serums that contain specialized active ingredients. In addition to these topical treatments, there are also various in-office procedures available such as chemical peels, laser therapy, and microdermabrasion that can reduce or eliminate the appearance of melasma.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves puncturing the skin with  fine, hair-like needles. This process stimulates collagen production and cell turnover to improve the overall texture and appearance of the skin.

Microneedling can be used to address a variety of skin concerns such as acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically takes around less than an hour to complete.

Tattoo removal refers to the process of removing unwanted tattoos from the skin. There are several methods of tattoo removal, including laser removal and dermabrasion. However, laser removal is the most common procedure.

Laser removal is the most common method and involves using a high-intensity laser to break up the ink particles in the skin, which are then absorbed by the body's immune system. Over time the tattoo begins to fade. However, it may take a few sessions for the complete removal of a tattoo. Dermabrasion may be used to supplement your tattoo removal, which uses a rotating abrasive wheel to remove the top layers of skin.

The effectiveness of tattoo removal varies depending on factors such as the size, color, and age of the tattoo, as well as the individual's skin type and health.
