Modern technology can achieve dramatic improvements in appearance, but for consistent and safe results, these technologies must be carefully administered by a knowledgeable and conscientious professional. For this reason, we realize our staff is our greatest and most important asset. We have taken great pains to assemble a group of professionals with excellent technical as well as communication skills.  Our strongest desire is to provide excellent care and build relationships for years to come.
 
   
KENNETH OSORIO, M.D.

We are proud to have Dr. Osorio as our medical director. Dr. Osorio is an expert in non-surgical techniques, dedicating his entire practice to this modern branch of medicine. Dr. Osorio was one of the first physicians in the East Valley to perform endovascular laser ablation and ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy for the treatment of varicose veins. These techniques allowed patients to avoid painful vein stripping surgery. Because patients were so pleased with the non-surgical vein treatment, it was only natural to add other aesthetic non-surgical modalities as well. Thus, Dr. Osorio established Advanced Skin and Laser, with the goal of establishing a world-class aesthetic center for the East Valley.


Dear Friend:

I appreciate you taking the time to review our website. You will find, although our techniques are modern, our approach is warm and old-fashioned. To this end, I invite you to email me or call us with any questions you may have.

Modern medicine has provided us with many advances, but technology cannot replace frank and open communication and thoughtful, individualized care. Although we are performing aesthetic procedures, ours is a medical office and not a chain day-spa. As such, we are available 24/7 for our patients. You will only meet with qualified, licensed professionals in our office. We are here to educate you on the different aesthetic procedures available and to guide you in your decisions.

I reside in the same community where I practice. My hope is that by doing the best we can for our patients, we will be allowed the privilege of caring for our friends and neighbors for years to come.

So you can get to know me better, I list my credentials below. I look forward to meeting you personally in the future.

Yours in good health,
