Conditions We Treat

Infantile hemangiomas are benign blood vessel growths that typically appear during infancy. Dr. Bravo evaluates their size, location, and development to determine whether your child needs treatment.
Moles
Moles
Most moles are harmless, but changes in their size, shape, or color deserve attention. Dr. Bravo examines suspicious moles and recommends monitoring, biopsy, or removal when medically appropriate for you.
Nail Disorders

Changes in nail color, thickness, texture, or growth can indicate fungal infections, psoriasis, or other conditions. Dr. Bravo examines your nails to identify potential causes and recommend treatments.

Rashes

Skin rashes can develop from allergies, infections, irritation, or inflammatory conditions, often causing redness and itching. Dr. Bravo recommends targeted treatments to relieve symptoms.
Rosacea
Rosacea
Rosacea commonly causes persistent facial redness, flushing, and acne-like bumps. Dr. Bravo offers personalized treatments to help manage symptoms and reduce visible redness and inflammation.
Skin Cancer

Skin cancer can appear as changing moles, growths, or non-healing sores. Dr. Bravo performs thorough examinations and treatments for basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma.
Warts
Warts
Warts are noncancerous skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Dr. Bravo evaluates persistent or bothersome warts and recommends appropriate removal treatments for you.
Acne Scars
Acne Scars
Acne scars can leave indentations and uneven skin texture long after breakouts resolve. Dr. Bravo offers CO2 laser skin resurfacing, TCA CROSS, subcision, and microneedling to address different scar types.
Age Spots

Age spots are flat, brown patches that develop from years of excess sun exposure, commonly appearing on the face and hands. Dr. Bravo evaluates changes and recommends appropriate treatment options.
Alopecia & Hair Loss
Alopecia & Hair Loss
Hair loss can result from genetics, hormonal changes, autoimmune conditions, or other factors. Dr. Bravo investigates potential causes and offers treatments, including PRP injections, to support hair growth.
Broken Capillaries
Broken Capillaries
Broken capillaries appear as fine, visible red blood vessels, commonly around the nose and cheeks. Dr. Bravo evaluates facial redness and may recommend Vbeam laser treatment to reduce their appearance.
Cherry Angiomas
Cherry Angiomas
Cherry angiomas are small, benign, red growths composed of clusters of blood vessels. Dr. Bravo can evaluate these spots and, when appropriate, use pulsed dye laser treatment to reduce their visibility.
Fine Lines & Wrinkles

Fine lines and wrinkles develop from facial expressions, collagen loss, and sun exposure. Dr. Bravo offers neuromodulators, fillers, and laser resurfacing to address wrinkles while preserving your appearance.
Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation occurs when excess melanin creates darker patches or uneven skin tone. Dr. Bravo evaluates potential causes, including inflammation, to recommend treatments suited to your skin’s needs.
Keloids
Keloids
Keloids are raised scars that extend beyond the original wound, sometimes causing itching or discomfort. Dr. Bravo evaluates scar characteristics and recommends treatments to improve appearance.
Port-wine Stains
Port-wine Stains
Port-wine stains are vascular birthmarks that appear as pink, red, or purple patches and are often present from birth. Dr. Bravo uses the Candela Vbeam Perfecta laser to help reduce visible discoloration.
Skin Elasticity
Skin Elasticity
As collagen and elastin decline with age, your skin may become less firm and resilient. Dr. Bravo carefully evaluates skin laxity and recommends appropriate rejuvenation treatments to support firmness.

Sun Damage
Years of ultraviolet exposure can cause uneven pigmentation, rough texture, and precancerous changes. Dr. Bravo assesses sun-related concerns and recommends treatments alongside sun protection.
Vascular Lesions

Vascular lesions involve abnormal or enlarged blood vessels that create visible redness. Dr. Bravo uses the Candela Vbeam Perfecta laser to treat appropriate vascular lesions and improve their appearance.
