"I strive to deliver natural-looking results by personally administering the most advanced dermatologic care that is tailored to your individual needs." - Elizabeth L. Tanzi, M.D.
Many people hear the term “chemical peel” and make two wrong assumptions. First, they think this treatment actually peels away the skin. Second, they think that “chemical” means something extremely harsh or even toxic. Neither is true. Chemical peels do not peel away anything; they simply dissolve and exfoliate the uppermost layer of the epidermis, revealing a new layer of rejuvenated skin. And the most commonly used peel solutions today—the alpha-hydroxy (AHA) acid found in citric fruit and the glycolic acid found in sugar cane—are anything but harsh. In fact, you can undergo a chemical peel during your lunch break and return to work that very afternoon without anybody being the wiser. (Although you might get comments about how much “healthier” you look.)
This isn’t to say that anybody can do a chemical peel procedure. As with any procedure involving your skin, you need to be in the hands of a professional. Peels are used to treat a variety of skin conditions—fine lines, age spots and uneven pigmentation, acne and acne scarring—but which peel is right for your very particular skin situation is a decision you should make only with the help of someone experienced and knowledgeable about all the options available. Call today to schedule a skin consultation with a physician. You can safely assume your skin will thank you for it.

My experience with Dr. Tanzi was great. I recently had laser age spot treatment with her and I am very pleased with the results. She explained the whole procedure making me feel so comfortable. I was feeling embarrassed at first, but she was happy to help me and really reduced my discomfort. Dr. Tanzi is a very good doctor. Highly recommended.

I've had multiple sessions for age spot removal with Dr. Tanzi and couldn't be more pleased with not only the results of the laser but the professionalism of Dr. Tanzi. I started with the my back before a wedding when I was wearing a backless bridesmaid dress. As Dr. Tanzi said, it does simply feel like a rubber band snapping your skin. The discomfort is very short, and within a week the spots turned dark and fell off just as she'd promised. I was very pleased with the results. I next had treatment on my face for age spots around my eyes which again worked very well. The day after treatment I could easily use cover-up to conceal the darker spots until they fell off. Dr. Tanzi is very honest when discussing with you about what procedures will work based on your particular situation (skin tone, skin condition, issue, etc.), how much pain/discomfort is involved, and what the recovery time should be. Her staff is as sweet as can be, and they all do their best to ensure you are comfortable during the procedures. I also feel like they have the most advanced techniques and equipment - every time I read or hear about a new technique or device Dr. Tanzi has already tested it and has an opinion or the actual equipment in the office. I've recommended my friends to Dr. Tanzi and they all reiterate my above comments.

I've had multiple areas treated for laser hair removal with Dr. Tanzi and couldn't be more pleased with not only the results of the laser but the professionalism of Dr. Tanzi. I started with the bikini line, as shaving caused red bumps and waxing really irritated my skin. I had probably three session and that was it - the hair was gone and has yet to return. I then moved on to my underarms (warning: after years of shaving, waxing and plucking, I have to admit laser hair removal becomes addictive!), and I'm now in the process of having my lower legs done. Dr. Tanzi is very honest when discussing with you about what procedures will work based on your particular situation (skin tone, skin condition, issue, etc.), how much pain/discomfort is involved, and what the recovery time should be. Her staff is as sweet as can be, and they all do their best to ensure you are comfortable during the procedures.

Absolute love her! She is an incredible phyisician with a real drive in providing her patients with the optimal care. I had a dermal filler in my lips. Initially I was very nervous about having the procedure done. However, she had made procedure entirely comfortable. I was very happy with the results and have been seeing her for about 7 years now. I can't imagine going to see anyone else.

I first decided to see Dr. Tanzi prior to my wedding for some Botox and fillers. I must admit I was a little nervous, but she soon made me feel very comfortable and ready for my first treatment. It has now been 1 year since my wedding and I am a devoted repeat patient. She is great!

I have been a patient of Dr Tanzi's for years. She has really helped me get my rosacea under control. People used to always ask me if i "had a sunburn" and after multiple treats my skin has really improved. I do continue to see her for occasional treatments to keep everything in check. She is very friendly and attentive and her staff is great!
