Bella Skin Institute has been selected for the 2008 Best of Calabasas Award in the Physicians category by the U.S. Local Business Association (USLBA).

With a brand new professional facility consisting of four exam rooms and two procedure rooms, the Bella Skin Institute has been designed to be warm and engaging while focusing on providing clients with the newest, most innovative procedures available to perfect skin. We use state-of-the-art equipment such as GentleLase hair removal system for safe, effective hair removal, Vbeam pulsed-dye laser for vascular lesions, the Perfecta System for pigmented lesion removal and the revolutionary SilkPeel dermalinfusion microdermabrasion system.

The Bella Skin Institute is dedicated to combining medical science and cosmetic beauty to provide any client with exactly what they need, from dermatology services to minimally invasive cosmetic procedures, performed at the facility. Dr. Anna Guanche uses a tumescent anesthesia for all procedures so the patient is never placed under full general anesthesia.

- Photodynamic Therapy

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) uses light and a light-sensitive dye to treat active acne. It is also being tested for the treatment of bacterial infection and skin conditions such as psoriasis. During the procedure, a photosensitized dye or drug is applied to the problem area, which is then exposed to pulses of a narrow-wavelength beam of laser light. The dye absorbs this light and produces an active form of oxygen that aids in shrinking oil glands and temporarily reducing oil production. PDT ensures high precision by targeting only the tissue in and near the treatment area.
