"Sure beauty is only skin-deep. But when you're thinking about finally doing something about those varicose veins, crow's feet, broken blood vessels or brown spots, you'll want to talk with someone who is as understanding as she is competent. Dr. Krauss is a skilled cosmetic dermatologist with a gentle bedside manner that puts anxious patients at ease. Her treatments, which usually involve laser therapy or Botox® or collagen, are less expensive than traditional surgical procedures, and, most important, involve much less risk. Dr. Krauss is honest and supportive and never pushes patients into making quick decision about treatments. We feel better already."
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is a safe, gentle, effective method for eliminating unwanted hair on the face and body. Laser light is used to selectively destroy hair follicles, while leaving surrounding skin intact. With our state-of-the-art lasers, long-term results can be achieved quickly, setting you free from waxing, shaving, plucking and electrolysis. Our laser hair removal is performed by our board certified physicians and our licensed nurse. This ensures that our patients obtain the best possible results in the safest of environments.
The VBeam Pulsed Dye Laser is the most effective instrument for removing spider veins (small dilated vessels) from the face, and cherry angiomas (small red spots on the face and body). These lesions often clear with only one or two treatments. The VBeam can also help fade, over the course of multiple treatments, red or raised scars, "port wine stain" birthmarks, and red discoloration and flushing of the face from rosacea.
Botox® is an excellent treatment for lines and wrinkles of the forehead, brow (frown lines) and crow's feet areas. This medication is able to relax the muscles that cause these lines, eliminating or improving furrows that can make you look tired and angry. A smooth, more youthful appearance is achieved without surgery. This treatment has also been called a "nonsurgical brow lift" because of its elevating effects on the eyebrows. Botox® can sometimes be used to improve upper lip lines, lift downturned corners of the mouth and minimize unsightly vertical bands of the neck.
Restylane®, Juvéderm® and Collagen can eradicate superficial lines as well as minimize deeper furrows. These safe, FDA approved procedures soften lines around the mouth and add volume and shape to aging lips. Other wrinkles and scars may also be treated. Results are visible immediately.
