Electro Coagulation

It is a safe, non- invasive, effective treatment for 
embarrassing skin blemishes.

Electro coagulation is the removal of dilated capillaries by coagulating blood (the transformation of fluids into solid matter) using heat produced by an electric current, a mild current to induce coagulation within the distended capillary. The body then absorbs the unused capillary. This treatment is called Capillary Coalysis, the processed by which unsightly, distended capillaries are absorbed and eliminated by the body.

Broken Capillaries (Telangiectasia) 
-Broken capillaries are tiny dilated blood vessels that are visible through the skin.
Most common one the face and chest

Ruby points
-Rudy points are bright red vascular blemishes which lie under the surface of the skin. They are dome shaped or slightly raised.
Most common on the body

Spider Angioma
-Spider Angioma is a combination of a ruby point and a single dilated capillary.

Skin Tags
-A skin tag is a small benign growth of skin that protrudes from the surrounding skin. Skin tags may vary in appearance; they are often raised form the skin, flesh coloured or slightly brownish.
Most common on the eyelids, neck, arm pits, upper chest, under breasts and groin area.

External Skin Aggression: 
Sun exposure, Excessive heat-Saunas, Chemical peels (heat induced treatments), Injuries- where the subsurface tissues are injured but the skin is not broken; bruises, aggressive pinching, ect., Surgery-Telangiectasia in scar tissue, Retinol- Over use of vitamin A.
Hormonal Causes:
Women are more prone to developing telangiectasia. (Due to oestrogen)
Menopause and Pregnancy- Increased blood volume, problem may disappear after birth.
Health Problems:
High blood pressure, Scleroderma- a disease in which connective tissue anywhere in the body becomes hardened and rigid, Reynaud’s syndrome- poor circulation, Lupus- “butterfly rash”- A chronic skin disorder of unknown cause, Rosacea- a chronic form of acne affecting the nose, forehead and cheeks by red pustular lesions, Alcoholism- alcohol dilates blood vessels and causes premature aging and loss of elasticity of the skin.
Medications:

Dramatic and rapid changes in temperature (extreme hot to extreme cold)
Other:
Hot and spicy foods and Strenuous exercise
