Throughout his 20-year career in Southwest Florida, Dr. Patrick Flaharty has performed over 20,000 facial procedures, and has achieved a reputation as a premier facial cosmetic surgeon. His training is second to none, having attended prestigious medical school, residency and fellowship programs. Dr. Flaharty focuses exclusively on the face, making him a true expert. His training and experience transform the way his patients feel about their inner and outer beauty. Patients leaving Azul, are confident with the way they look and feel because, beauty is our business.
Many find freckles, or ‘ephelides’ as they are called in dermatology, cute. Often they are harmless little brown specks around our nose or cheeks. They are the result of sun exposure and an attempt by our skin to respond to this exposure by packaging melanin pigment to absorb the ultraviolet rays of the sun. Unfortunately in skin that has developed freckles our skin has not packaged this melanin properly and this is displayed as a ‘freckle’.
Removing freckles is a fairly straightforward process and laser treatment is highly effective for treating them. You should see a dermatologist before having any brown spots removed as they may have the potential to be cancerous. A dermatologist can check them to be sure they can be safely removed.
