Services
Skin Cancer Screening
Our board-certified dermatologists perform comprehensive skin examinations to identify suspicious moles and lesions. Using advanced diagnostic techniques and our CLIA-certified in-house lab, we provide rapid biopsy analysis and develop personalized treatment plans. Early detection services include dermoscopy and total-body photography for high-risk patients.
Botox Injections
FDA-approved Botox treatments target facial wrinkles caused by muscle movement. Our specialists use precise injection techniques to reduce frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead creases. Results appear within days and last 3-4 months, with follow-up sessions available for optimal outcomes.
Acne Treatment
Customized acne management plans address mild to severe cases using topical medications, oral antibiotics, laser therapy, and chemical peels. We offer Blue Light treatments for bacterial elimination and extraction services for comedone removal. Treatment protocols emphasize long-term skin health and scar prevention.
Laser Hair Removal
Permanent hair reduction using advanced laser technology targets unwanted hair on most body areas. Multiple sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart yield optimal results, with specialized protocols for different skin types and hair colors.
Dermatopathology
Our CLIA-certified laboratory provides rapid analysis of skin biopsies with board-certified dermatopathologist expertise. This in-house capability ensures faster diagnosis of skin cancers, inflammatory conditions, and infectious diseases compared to external lab processing.
