On the recommendation of my Richmond Kaiser Permanente dermatologist, I went to 城市联盟 Kaiser Cosmetic Services for laser treatment of spider veins on my nose. My provider was very knowledgeable about laser efficacy and probable results. Her confidence made me feel very comfortable. She successfully treated me in two visits and there was no attempt to up-sell me with additional treatments or different cosmetic services. The price was reasonable for such services. I will go back to her when I need my next maintenance “nose job.”

What Should I Look for in a 激光 Practitioner?
The treatment should be performed by a registered nurse (RN) or physician who’s trained to operate a laser. Different treatment choices must be made for each patient. Side effects such as skin discoloration can result if the laser is operated by an inexperienced practitioner. 在凯萨医疗机构, we provide only laser trained RNs or physicians to deliver high-quality care to our patients.
