Skin Classic
The Skin Classic is an award-winning laser alternative treatment for common skin irregularities such as broken capillaries, cherry angiomas, keratosis, skin tags, hyper-pigmentation, Milia, sebaceous hyperplasia, and acne. The Skin Classic utilizes a direct radiofrequency to transmit an electric current to effectively vaporize and dehydrate the skin irregularity with little downtime and no damage to surrounding tissue.
Who can be treated with the Skin Classic?
The Skin Classic can be safely used on all skin types and tones. It is not recommended for individuals who have a compromised immune system or who have difficulty healing.
With 1-2 treatments, the Skin Classic can successfully treat:
Telangiectasias (Broken capillaries)
Broken capillaries are small dilated blood vessels near the surface of the skin. They can develop anywhere on the body but are commonly seen on the face around the nose, cheeks, chin, and chest.
Cherry Angiomas
Cherry Angiomas are small clusters of capillaries at the surface of the skin that form a small round dome, which is often flat topped. The color typically ranges from bright red to purple. These dots can grow over time up to a centimeter or more in some cases. These are found in various areas of the face and body and are typically caused by aging, pregnancy, genetics, and excessive sun exposure.
Sebaceous Hyperplasia
Sebaceous Hyperplasia is a disorder of the oil glands and is a common, benign condition most commonly found in adults of middle age or older. These lesions can be single or multiple and appear as a yellow, soft, small papule on the face. They are round and the oil surrounds the pore giving it a “donut-like” appearance. Typically these occur on the nose, cheeks, and forehead. Occasionally, sebaceous hyperplasia appear on the chest or other parts of the body as well.
Brown spots
Brown Spots, are small pigmented spots that occur on the skin and have a clearly defined edge, surrounded by skin that appears normal. Unlike freckles, these will stay stable in their color regardless of sunlight exposure. They occur in sun exposed areas appearing on the face, arms, tops of hands, and chest. It is most commonly found in individuals aged 30-50 years old. Increased exposure to sun and artificial sources of UV light can cause these to appear at an even younger age.
Seborrheic Keratosis
A seborrheic keratosis is a non-cancerous (benign) skin tumor that originates from cells in the outer layer of the epidermis, also known as keratinocytes. Like liver spots, seborrheic keratoses are seen more often as people age. They can appear round of oval, ranging from very small to more than one inch in size. Seborrheic keratoses are commonly found on the face, chest, shoulders, and back. While seborrheic keratosis is non-cancerous, basal cell carcinoma can sometimes be found in the same location and sometimes can progress into basal cell carcinoma.
Skin Tags
A skin tag is a small benign tumor that primarily forms in areas where the skin creases, such as the neck, armpit, and groin. Sometimes they may also appear on the eyelids or other areas of the face. These are harmless and typically painless, and do not grow or change over time. Common causes are weight gain, genetic, diabetes, and pregnancy. They are also more common in women than men.
Milia
A milium, plural Milia, is a keratin filled cyst that can appear just under the epidermis. Milia are very common in newborn babies, but can appear on people of all ages. They are most commonly found around the nose and eye. In children, Milia disappear easily, on their own. However, in adults they may require removal by skin care professional.
