Services
Acne Treatment
Latham Dermatology offers comprehensive acne treatments tailored to individual skin types. Our approach combines topical agents, oral medications, and in-office procedures to clear breakouts and prevent scarring. Patients receive personalized guidance on skincare routines and lifestyle adjustments to maintain clear skin.
Botox Injections
Our Botox treatments target facial wrinkles like crow's feet and frown lines using FDA-approved injections. Expert providers ensure natural-looking results by strategically administering Botox to relax muscles without freezing expression. Sessions take 10 minutes, with effects lasting 3-4 months.
Skin Cancer Screening
We provide thorough skin cancer screenings for early detection of basal cell, squamous cell, and melanoma cancers. Our team examines moles and growths using advanced techniques, offering biopsies or cryosurgery when needed. Patients learn self-examination techniques to monitor skin changes between visits.
Rosacea Management
Our rosacea treatments focus on identifying triggers like sun exposure and stress to reduce flare-ups. Custom plans may include topical medications, laser therapy, and skincare education. We help patients manage symptoms like redness and visible blood vessels for improved skin appearance.
Rash Diagnosis
Latham Dermatology specializes in diagnosing and treating rashes caused by allergies, eczema, or contact dermatitis. We use patch testing and physical exams to determine causes, prescribing steroids, antihistamines, or light therapy to relieve itching and inflammation effectively.
