Clinical Dermatology
Our office provides a full range of general dermatological services so you can enjoy the healthy skin you deserve.
We stress the importance of and highly recommend regular full body skin exams. We teach our patients how to perform self exams, and emphasize the importance of using daily sun protection, including sun protective clothing, uv protect sunglasses, and sunscreen at least 30 SPF. Evaluation and treatment for all skin concerns including acne, eczema, alopecia, psoriasis, rosacea warts, moles and much more. The exam is followed by a thorough discussions with each patient regarding best treatment options and plan for follow up.
Biopsing any new or suspicious lesions, surgical excision of skin cancers, incision and drainage of cysts, kenalog injection to hypertrophic scars, bacterial cultures etc are just some of the other procedures we perform.
Cosmetic Dermatology
As time passes, our skin shows the natural, inevitable signs of aging-wrinkles, sagging, hollowing, pigmentary changes and sun damage to name a few. Many of these tall tale signs of aging can be improved with a variety of non-surgical cosmetic procedures available at our practice. Fillers, Botox, lasers, chemical peels, radiofrequency, and microneedling etc can be used depending on the particular concern. These non surgical cosmetic treatments, sometimes in combination depending on the concerns, can be helpful in minimizing the signs of aging and help to achieve a fresher, healthier, more youthful glow.
A recommended treatment plan would be discussed with a timeline. It is important to remember that taking care of our skin is a lifelong commitment to ourselves. It is never a one and done deal, it takes commitment, dedication, time and care to achieve the best outcome.
The individual treatment plan will include skin care products based on your individual needs to help meet your goals. Importantly, no skin treatment plan is complete without emphasizing how essential sun protection is. This includes, 30+UV sunscreen (reapply often), UV protective sun glasses, UV protective clothing including wide brim hat and when possible avoid excess sun exposure. Be smart in the sun!
Skin Care
We all like to look our best. Sometimes, this requires more than ordinary cosmetics. Your eyelashes, eyebrows or lips may be naturally pale or may have faded or thinned with age. Or perhaps you are experiencing residual bruising or swelling following certain cosmetic and surgical procedures such as facelifts, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, dermabrasion and laser resurfacing. Permanent makeup and temporary camouflage cosmetics are available to correct these problems and help you look as good as you feel.
