Alopecia refers to medically related hair loss. Alopecia, in most cases, does not pose significant health risks by itself (the exception being the increased risk of skin cancer on the scalp in patients who have lost their scalp hair – an important blocker of damaging UV light), but many people seek treatment for their alopecia, because of the social stigma associated with irregular or premature hair loss.

Spider veins (also known as telangiectasia or vascular ectasia) are small (0.5 to 1.0 mm), dilated, red or blue blood vessels that appear close to the skin’s surface.

clerotherapy involves injecting a small amount of a specific solution into the diseased vein using a very fine needle directly. These solutions damage the inside walls of the diseased vein and cause it to seal shut. The treated vein is then reabsorbed by the body over the following 2 to 3 months. Different sclerosing solutions (the solution injected into the diseased vein) are used for different sized vessels.
Stretch marks, or striae, are very common. While the skin is a remarkable organ that is designed to stretch, if growth or weight gain occurs too rapidly, the skin will intrinsically weaken, a partial tear of sorts, and heal, leaving behind the scars we call stretch marks. Many women get them during pregnancy when the skin grows very quickly. Stretch marks can also occur in rapidly-growing adolescents.
