The small capillaries are responsible for cell nutrition. Their impairment can affect the appearance and function of the skin. Electrocoagulation is a non-invasive treatment that transforms fluids into matter using heat produced electricity. Blood trapped in broken capillaries is simply solidified and eliminated from the body.

During the treatment the operator simply touches the skin surface and follows the dilated capillary from beginning to end. Many of the vascular blemishes disappear on contact.

Electrocoagulation uses DC & RF currents, commonly used in esthetics. These are applied automatically during the procedure and most conditions are successfully treated in 1 to 3 sessions, with minimal skin reaction.

We are able to treat ruby points, spider angioma and the most common telangiectasia (spider veins). It is also recommended that you do have a dark tan as the veins tend to be hard to find and to use sunscreen after any skin treatment.

Skin Tags: $75 per 15 minutes; each additional 15 minutes $25

Facial Veins: $65 for 15 minutes; each additional 15 minutes $20

Vasculyse: To Remove Skin Tags, Capillaries & Hyperpigmentation
Non-invasive electrocoagulation treatment is limited to the epidermis thus scarring from this procedure is impossible. During treatment, the superficial dermis is indirectly affected by the coagulation and heals without any visible mark.

Electrocoagulation transforms fluids matter using heat produced by electricity. When using elecrocoagulation (RF & DC ) currents, the blood trapped in broken capillaries is solidified, eliminated by the body and replaced by scar tissue.The blood then flows through adjoining vessels. During treatment, vascular blemishes disappear; final results are evident within 3-10 days (longer on the body).

The vasculyse may be used to remove imperfections such as:
-Telangiectasia
-Spider Veins
-Ruby points
-Couperose
-Skin tags
-Milia
-Cholesterol deposits
-Hyperpigmentation spots

-Heredity (fair skin, cold climate)
-Sun exposure
-Drastic and rapid changes in temperature (from a cold outdoor winter day to a hot sauna).
-Heat induced treatments(shower too hot)
-Alcohol abuse
-Hot and spicy foods
-High blood pressure
-Menopause
-Medication
-Injuries

Will these capillaries come back?
Once a capillary is treated ,it will never come back, however new ones may appear.

- pacemaker
- diabetes
- pregnancy

What is a skin tag?
A skin tag is a common, benign condition , which consists of a bit of skin that projects from the surrounding skin and may appear attached to the skin. Skin tags can vary quite a bit in appearance. They may be smooth or irregular, flesh coloured or more deeply pigmented, and either simply be raised above the surrounding skin or have a stalk (a peduncle) so that the skin tag hangs from the skin.

What causes skin tags?
They are mostly made of epidermal cells but do have a small capillary connection. Nevertheless they are easily removed with the Vasculyse machine.

Where do skin tags occur?
Skin tags can occur almost anywhere there is skin. However, favourite areas for tags are the eyelids, neck, armpits (axillae), upper chest, and groin.

Who tends to get skin tags?
They are much more common with age beginning in middle age and they tend to be somewhat more prevalent in women than men.

Is a skin tag a tumor?
Yes, it is in the sense that it is a growth. However, it is a benign (harmless and not a malignant) condition.

What problems do skin tags cause?
Usually none. This tiny skin growth generally causes no symptoms unless it is repeatedly irritated as, for example, by the collar or in the crotch.

How are skin tags treated?
In cases in which a skin tag is irritated or cosmetically unwanted, treatment may be done by freezing the tag with liquid nitrogen, tying off the tag with a thread or suture so as to cut off the blood supply, or cutting off (excising) the tag with a scalpel or scissorshey are mostly made of epidermal cells but do have a small capillary connection. Nevertheless they are easily removed with the Vasculyse machine.
