Dermatological Services in Rancho Mirage, CA

At Desert Medical Rejuvenation, removing skin growths and diminishing blemishes is done by using several state-of-the-art treatments, such as by performing cryotherapy with the CryoProbe® device, or electrosurgery with the Hyfrecator®, or even by using the plasma energy device PLEXR® Pen. Cryotherapy is a nonsurgical treatment to remove skin growths, such as lesions, sun spots, skin tags, or age spots. We use the CryoProbe®, a small pen-like instrument that uses nitrous oxide cartridges to deliver the quick, effective cryotherapy procedure, to freeze and remove these growths for immediate treatment. We also use the Hyfrecator®, which takes a different approach by heating and destroying tissue, skin tags, red skin spots, sun spots, and other blemishes. The burn is shallow and does not damage surrounding healthy skin. The PLEXR® Plasma Pen can accomplish same results with no damage to unaffected skin areas. We can also use the SPECTRUM® Laser device for removal of unwanted pigmented lesions, unattractive superficial facial veins and vessels, and other blemishes, safely and effectively without damage to healthy skin. 

All of these devices provide instant, safe, and effective improvement. There is no discomfort as lesions are numbed with either topical or local anesthetic. Best of all there is basically NO downtime related to those procedures. 

Although the procedures are generally comfortable, for those patients with very high levels of anxiety or low levels of tolerance to pain, we offer the use of PRO-NOX®, a device that delivers a mixture of inhaled Oxygen/Nitrous which numbs the patient's sensations for several minutes, enough to allow the doctor to complete the procedure. The patient recovers 100% at the end of the procedure.
