Laser Skin Resurfacing
Are you seeking smooth, healthier-looking skin? If so, consider laser skin resurfacing. Laser resurfacing
uses powerful yet gentle lasers to remove sun damage, age spots, blotches, scars and other imperfections from the skin. A new,
smoother layer of skin is revealed as radiant as it was in the patient's youth. Recovery time is minimal. Please
contact us today to learn more about laser skin resurfacing.
Our Pearl and Pearl Fractional lasers are used for patients with different types of skin damage. The Pearl laser gently
removes the damaged top layer of skin, revealing healthy new skin after 3 to 4 days. The Pearl Fractional laser is normally
used on a smaller surface area but reaches damaged cells deeper in the skin, stimulating the growth of vibrant new skin with
fresh collagen. Fractional treatments are ideal for older, more sun-damaged and rougher skin as well as skin with deep wrinkles.

pain resulting from cervical dystonia in adults. Made from the same active ingredient as Botox (botulinum toxin Type A),

creases and frown lines. Relaxing the muscles you use to frown with Dysport can restore a smoother, more youthful expression to your face.

Collagen
In order to preserve the skin's elasticity, the body manufactures collagen, a fibrous protein. As we age, however, the amount
of collagen in the skin decreases, making the skin less supple and more wrinkled. Today's technology allows us to inject
collagen into the skin, eliminating fine facial lines, the appearance of depressed scars and deeper wrinkles.
Effects last up to 4 to 6 months! Please contact our Alabama practice today to learn more about collagen injections.

Spider Vein Treatment (Sclerotherapy)
Unsightly spider veins are a common cosmetic problem experienced by at least half of adult females. Sclerotherapy
is a safe and effective procedure in which a series of tiny injections is administered to remove unwanted spider veins from the
legs and any other areas of the body on which they appear. Eliminating spider veins can dramatically improve your appearance
and give the skin a more healthy and youthful look.
Depending on the location and other characteristics of your spider veins, Dr. William Hedden and our experienced medical staff
may recommend sclerotherapy, laser vein therapy or a combination of both. Laser vein removal
may be the most effective method for treating smaller spider veins, such as those that appear on the face, while larger
spider veins are usually treated with sclerotherapy. Contact Hedden Plastic Surgery
today to learn more about your options for removing troublesome spider veins.

EVLT® Varicose Vein Treatment
Millions of men and women suffer from varicose veins — the bulging, often discolored cords that usually
appear on the back of the calves or the inside part of the legs. Varicose veins are not only unsightly, but can also
be very painful and a serious health concern. Now there is an innovative, minimally-invasive therapy —
Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) — that is FDA-approved and fast becoming the best treatment
available for varicose veins.
EVLT eliminates varicose veins at the source using a thin laser fiber that is inserted into the vein. The laser
energy seals the varicose vein and allows it to be absorbed by the body, while blood flow is sustained by healthy
veins. Laser varicose vein therapy does not leave a scar and is usually performed in less than an hour at the
Birmingham, Alabama offices of Hedden Plastic Surgery.

Dermabrasion
Sunlight, exposure to harsh weather, pollution — all of these can really zap the skin of its youthful beauty.
Dermabrasion is a safe, proven way to revitalize dull, blotchy skin by removing acne scars, age spots,
blemishes and other imperfections. During this procedure, a wire brush with an oscillating handle is gently used to remove dry,
aged outer layers of skin, revealing the smooth, younger-looking skin underneath. Although the treated area will be swollen,
tingly and/or red after dermabrasion, side effects will subside within a few days.

Medical Needling
Medical needling treats lines, wrinkles, scars and stretch marks by creating tiny punctures into the deep layers of skin to
increase the production of new collagen. This skin rejuvenation technique causes little damage to the epidermis, or outer layer
of skin, and healing occurs very rapidly. Medical needling patients undergo light sedation and the entire
procedures takes about 1/2 hour to complete.

Skin Cancer Treatment
The development of a new mole or changes in an existing mole may be a sign of skin cancer. Some skin cancers only require
freezing, shaving or burning of the remaining cancer, while more aggressive tumors may need to be surgically removed. Mohs
surgery, which is micrographically controlled, provides the most precise method for removal of cancerous tissue, while sparing the greatest amount of healthy tissue.
