Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive medical procedure used to treat varicose veins and spider veins. It involves injecting a solution (called a sclerosant) directly into the affected veins, which irritates the vein walls, causing them to collapse and eventually be absorbed by the body. This procedure is widely used for cosmetic and therapeutic purposes to improve vein appearance and alleviate symptoms associated with venous insufficiency.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive skin cancer removal treatment for individuals with precancerous skin lesions (such as actinic keratoses) or non-melanoma skin cancers (like basal cell carcinoma). PDT eliminates cancer cells through the utilization of both drug and light therapy. First, a topical solution is applied for absorption by the cancerous cells. Later, the affected area is targeted with a very specific wavelength of light that uses an active form of oxygen to destroy the cancerous cells.

Mesotherapy, using Dutasteride as a PRP Alternative for Hair loss, is a hair growth treatment that involves injecting a medication called dutasteride into the scalp to treat hair loss. Dutasteride reduces levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that causes hair thinning in people who are genetically predisposed. The injections are made directly into the scalp, targeting hair follicles and minimizing the risk of side effects associated with oral dutasteride.
Mesotherapy is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that involves injecting a combination of vitamins, enzymes, hormones, or plant-based extracts into the middle layer of the skin (the mesoderm) to treat various conditions, including hair loss. In the context of hair loss, mesotherapy focuses on improving scalp health, stimulating hair follicles, and promoting hair regrowth.

Dysport® is a simple, non-surgical, physician-administered treatments that smoothes lines and wrinkles.
During your consultation, your provider will administer your preferred treatments safely and effectively. Most patients see results within hours to days and results can last up to 4 months.
That depends. Your provider will review the options with you during your consultation. You may be a better candidate for one treatment over the other. Often, patients benefit from combining more than one treatment method.
Our facial features are designed to be expressive and show emotion. If you are angry or annoyed, for example, you may lower your brows and frown. Underneath your skin, your facial muscles contract, causing a groove or line. After years of making this same movement, these lines become more pronounced, even exaggerated, and sometimes permanent.
Dysport® works by relaxing the muscles that cause persistent lines to develop over time.
Please arrive at least 10 minutes before your appointment to fill out any paperwork. Our staff will walk you through the simple process while you listen to soothing music in our warm and welcoming environment.
Your provider and our staff will answer all of your questions and determine if you are a candidate for Dysport®. Your provider may also recommend other beneficial procedures and will make sure your treatment plan is customized accordingly.
While you rest in our comfortable chairs, your provider will administer your Dysport® to the appropriate facial muscles. Special care is taken to maximize improvements while minimizing risks.
No recovery time is typically needed. Most patients only experience transient redness after the treatment, which typically resolves within minutes to hours.
Within days you may notice an improvement in the treated areas. As with any cosmetic procedure, results may vary.

The SkinPen® is a medical-grade, state-of-art precision tool used to address acne scars and the symptoms of aging.
SkinPen® Micro Therapy is a highly effective treatment that helps to reduce the signs of aging and enhance your skin’s appearance by stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin. SkinPen® is also used to decrease the appearance of stretch marks on the body.
Each of our bodies has innate processes that react to injury by producing new cells and extracellular materials (like elastin and collagen) to heal the damage. The SkinPen® achieves results by taking advantage of this natural process through the use of a finely-tuned micro-needling pen.
This device initiates your natural healing process by creating hundreds of temporary micro-sized openings or micro-channels in the skin. These “fractionated” micro-channels are created thanks to the design of the SkinPen®’s disposable needle cartridge, which achieves results without the use of thermal energy or chemicals applied to the skin.
A fast and safe method for inducing the production of collagen
Requires no thermal energy and is entirely non-ablative
Promotes care free healing
Safe for all skin types
No major downtime
You can expect to experience effects similar to mild sunburn after the procedure, such as redness, tenderness, and some swelling. Despite that, there is no significant downtime after a SkinPen® procedure. Patients can return to normal activities and conceal most of the mild side effects with make-up after just one day.
Since everyone’s genetic makeup and needs are different, procedure requirements and SkinPen® results will vary. The number of sessions required and the depth of treatment will depend on what goals and results you would like to achieve.
While multiple sessions are recommended to achieve optimal micro-needling results, noticeable changes are typically seen just one week following treatment and gradually improve as the body’s healing process promotes the production of healthy new cells and extracellular substances.
Patients with uneven skin tone and fine lines may see SkinPen® results after just one procedure, while those looking to soften the appearance of acne scarring may require several procedures.

A lipoma is a fatty tumor located just beneath the skin. Many patients prefer to have lipomas removed, especially if located in a visible area.
Lipomas typically feel soft, slightly mobile, and can grow slowly, sometimes becoming tender. Lipomas are generally considered harmless, but significant growth can make patients uncomfortable.
Examination by your dermatologist can help narrow the diagnosis, but a formal diagnosis is not possible until the lipoma has been removed and/or biopsied.
After a suspected diagnosis, removal is done during an appointment in our office through a simple surgical incision, which generally requires a few stitches.
Would you like to have a lipoma removed? Treatment begins with a proper diagnosis and once confirmed, the dermatologists at Dermatology Consultants of Frisco can devise the best course of action for your specific case.
The most common type of cancer in the country is skin cancer, and melanoma is the most serious type of skin cancer. In general, melanoma and other skin cancers are squamous cell carcinoma, and basal cell carcinoma forms due to negative mutations of skin cell DNA in the outer layer of the skin (epidermis). The spread of these mutations to adjacent cells, particularly when uncontrolled and rapid, raises the risk of malignancy. Melanoma develops when mutations occur in melanocyte cells, which are skin cells located in the bottom layer of the epidermis. Melanomas frequently form in areas that don’t get much sun exposure and often start out as a mole, a large brown spot, or an irregular lesion.
Melanoma can occur regardless of your ethnicity, race, skin type, or skin color. The damage accumulation from years of exposure to the sun’s UV rays is the biggest cause of melanoma. Other causes include a compromised immune system or exposure to toxins, radiation, and other harmful substances Additionally, there are several risk factors associated with melanoma. These risk factors include the following: family history of skin cancer, fair skin, numerous sunburns through the years, sunny climates, locations at high altitudes, moles, and precancerous lesions (e.g., actinic keratosis).
If you’ve been diagnosed with melanoma, the following treatment options are very effective: topical medications, superficial radiation therapy (SRT), Mohs micrographic surgery, surgical excision procedure, photodynamic therapy (PDT), cryotherapy, and electrodesiccation and curettage. Not all of these options are available at all offices. Please call to check.
