Services
Laser Skin Resurfacing
Laser skin resurfacing targets sun damage, wrinkles, and scars using advanced laser technology. This treatment stimulates collagen production for smoother, more even-toned skin. Ideal for patients seeking non-surgical facial rejuvenation with minimal downtime.
Mohs Surgery
Mohs surgery precisely excises skin cancer while preserving healthy tissue. Our fellowship-trained surgeons achieve high cure rates for basal and squamous cell carcinomas through this specialized technique, ensuring optimal cosmetic and medical outcomes.
Botox/Jeuveau
Botox and Jeuveau injections reduce dynamic wrinkles by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. These neuromodulators effectively smooth forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines for a refreshed appearance lasting 3-4 months.
HydraFacial
HydraFacial combines exfoliation, extraction, and hydration to address multiple skin concerns. This multi-step treatment improves texture, reduces pore size, and enhances radiance through patented vortex technology and antioxidant-rich serums.
Sofwave Treatment
Sofwave uses focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen and elastin production. This non-invasive procedure lifts and tightens skin on the face and body without needles or downtime, delivering natural results in 2-3 sessions.

I visited with Dr Harp in a sort of emergency, another doctor recommending that I see her and the office was kind enough to schedule me in. I am very impressed by the natural authority and the concentration of Dr Harp. She is kind and direct and no doubt gives the sense that she is both devoted and experienced. More exams are needed but I am serene from the trust she instills.

Finally! Some good people that know and understand my skin issues! The staff is super friendly and make you feel right at home. I had to have a fatty cyst removed above my eyebrow and Dr. Vazirnia was careful to make the incision where a crease in my forehead was. The precision was so spot on that you cannot see a scar, months later.
