Mohs Surgery
Mohs surgery is a precise dermatologic procedure for skin cancer treatment, offering a 99% cure rate. Our surgeons use microscopic mapping to remove cancerous cells while preserving healthy tissue. Patients benefit from same-day procedures and advanced reconstruction options for optimal cosmetic outcomes.
Advanced Reconstruction
Advanced reconstruction restores skin function and appearance after cancer removal. Our surgeons specialize in complex closures, minimizing the need for general anesthesia. Techniques ensure faster healing and superior aesthetic results for challenging defects.
Cosmetic Lesion Removal
We safely remove benign skin lesions in cosmetically sensitive areas using minimally invasive techniques. Our surgeons prioritize aesthetic outcomes, ensuring minimal scarring and natural-looking results for facial and body treatments.
Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fat from eyelids to restore a youthful appearance. This procedure addresses drooping lids and under-eye bags, enhancing both vision and aesthetics through precise, outpatient techniques.
Lipoma Treatment
Lipoma excision involves surgical removal of benign fatty growths under local anesthesia. Our team ensures minimal downtime and discreet scarring, with options for dissolvable sutures and tailored aftercare to promote smooth recovery.

Questions
What is Mohs surgery and why is it recommended?
Mohs surgery is a precise skin cancer treatment using microscopic mapping to remove cancer cells while preserving healthy tissue. It offers the highest cure rate (99%) and minimizes scarring, making it ideal for complex or recurrent cases.
Do you accept insurance for dermatologic procedures?
We accept Medicare assignments and submit claims to most insurance providers. Coverage varies by plan—patients should confirm benefits with their insurer. Cosmetic procedures typically aren't covered by insurance.

Recovery varies by procedure but typically involves minimal downtime. Most patients resume normal activities within days. We provide detailed aftercare instructions, including wound care and pain management tailored to your specific surgery.
Are cosmetic procedures like dermal fillers safe?
Yes. We use FDA-approved fillers administered by board-certified dermatologists. Treatments are non-surgical, minimally invasive, and carry low risk when performed by qualified professionals following strict safety protocols.

Bring your medical history, current medications, and insurance information. Be prepared to discuss your concerns and goals. Our team will evaluate your condition, explain options, and create a personalized surgical plan during your visit.
