Mole Removal

Most moles are harmless, but you may want one removed if it is irritated, bothersome or you don’t like how it looks. Leah removes moles with a quick in-office procedure.

Any mole that is new, changing, itchy or bleeding should be checked, and removed moles can be sent to a lab when appropriate.

Usually under 30 minutes
Local numbing for comfort
A small mark that fades as it heals

Does mole removal hurt?

The area is numbed first, so most people feel only a small pinch.

Will it leave a scar?

Most people have a small mark that fades over time. Leah takes special care with skin of color.

Should I get a mole checked?

Yes, if a mole is new, growing, changing, itching or bleeding. Call 201-882-1050 or contact us to book.

Skin Tag Removal

Skin tags are small, harmless growths that often appear on the neck, underarms and eyelids. Leah also removes other common benign skin growths, and several can often be treated in one visit.

Fast in-office treatment
Little to no downtime
Healing in about 1 to 2 weeks

Is skin tag removal painful?

Most people feel very little, and numbing can be used when needed.

Can skin tags come back?

A removed skin tag will not grow back, but new ones can form over time.

Can you remove skin tags near the eyes?

Often, yes. Leah will examine the area and advise the safest option. Call 201-882-1050 or contact us to book.

Sclerotherapy for Leg Veins

Sclerotherapy treats spider veins and small varicose veins on the legs. A solution is injected into the vein with a very fine needle, causing it to close and fade over several weeks.

15 to 45 minute treatments
Compression stockings for a short time afterward
Walk and resume normal activities right away

How many sessions will I need?

Many people need 2 to 4 sessions, spaced several weeks apart.

When will I see results?

Spider veins often fade in 3 to 6 weeks. Larger veins can take a few months.

Is there downtime?

Most people return to normal activities the same day. Mild bruising is common, and you will avoid strenuous exercise for a short time. Call 201-882-1050 or contact us to book.

Stretch Mark Treatment

Leah treats stretch marks with radiofrequency (RF), which gently heats the deeper skin to stimulate new collagen and elastin. This improves their texture and color, with settings chosen for your skin type.
