With age, skin begins to lose hyaluronic acid and collagen - resulting in fine lines, wrinkles, and a loss of fullness and elasticity. By using cutting edge technology and techniques, we can reverse these visible signs of aging and prevent further lines and wrinkles from forming, all while retaining your natural expression and appearance. Our goal is to help you look better, without looking fake plastic or overdone.
There are three types of problem veins.
1- Varicose veins: These are the large worm-like veins that are found on all parts of the leg but mainly on the thigh and inner calf. They can lead to problems such as skin ulceration, rashes, thrombophlebitis and can cause a considerable amount of discomfort.
2- Reticular or green veins: These are smaller than varicose veins and have minimal bulging. They are more visible in fair skin people and can often branch off of larger veins and can be enlarged if they are attached to varicose veins. They are not only unsightly, but increased pressure inside of them can lead to spider veins.
3- Spider Veins and Capillaries: Spider veins are unsightly and mainly on the surface and are commonly found on the inner thigh, ankles and behind the knees though they can be found anywhere. They are the most common veins. They range in colour from dark blue to red and usually branch off of deeper reticular veins. They are treated best by closing their feeding reticular veins. This is done most often with injection treatments called sclerotherapy.

As the body ages, degradation of the elastin and collagen found in our skin gradually occurs. Over time, this reduction can lead the skin to appear loose or saggy. Lifestyle choices such as smoking, lack of sun protection, stress, and excessive alcohol consumption can all accelerate this process. Kawartha Skin Care has solutions to improve sagging skin without painful surgery or downtime.
