As we age and acquire more sun exposure, we start to experience freckling and unwanted brown spots rather than a nice even colour. Thankfully we have treatments that can even out that pigmentation and get us closer to what we once had.

We have a wide variety of options to treat sun damaged skin these days and surgery isn’t always required and can usually be avoided in most cases. Let’s feel about our skin the way Don Henley felt in his song: “And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong. After the boys of summer have gone.”

Stretched or torn ear lobes are a common issue today with many patients doing this for cosmetic reasons. If and when you decide you don’t like the look anymore, minor cosmetic surgery can, in most cases, return them to near-normal appearance in just a few minutes of procedure time.

Loose or saggy skin has a way of creeping up on us as we age. Sometimes it’s genetics and sometimes it’s our lifestyle choices. Either way, there are solutions to help tighten and improve the firmness and texture of the skin that has aged and become damaged by too much sun exposure.

Unless you are a blushing bride, constant facial redness is not all that desirable in most situations. Beyond the cosmetic appearance, chronic facial redness can lead to more permanent skin changes over many years such as acne-like pimples, dry sensitive skin, dry eyes, enlarged nose and much more. Treating Rosacea is a must for anyone experiencing these symptoms to prevent any long-term damage to the skin.
