When skin conditions must be treated with surgery, we offer patients the most comprehensive, state-of-the-art surgical techniques available, including Mohs Surgery for recurrent or high-risk skin cancers. We treat skin diseases ranging from the most common conditions, to the most complicated or rare skin cancers. Our team includes physicians, registered nurses, and other clinicians who collaborate to provide compassionate care to our patients. Our team also works closely with specialists in other departments, including plastic surgeons, ophthalmologists, head and neck surgeons, and radiation cancer experts, allowing patients to get the full benefit of a multidisciplinary approach to a range of skin conditions.

Through laser surgery and other cutting-edge techniques, our board-certified dermatologists can help brighten and rejuvenate our patients’ skin. Our range of expertise includes removal of benign growths such as skin tags and cysts; laser treatment of facial telangiectasias; and the precise placement of fillers to enhance appearance. Laser Treatments For the treatment of broken capillaries on the face due to sun damage, aging, and rosacea, we use a pulsed dye laser to specifically target and destroy these blood vessels. This laser is also used for the treatment of port-wine stains and hemangiomas. For unwanted hair growth, we offer two types of lasers that work either in light or dark skin tones with medium- to dark-colored hair. Over a series of treatments, depending on the site, a significant reduction in hair growth is achieved. Fillers There are a variety of injectable materials that can be placed in the skin to replace volume loss that leads to an aged appearance, or to fill in crevices caused by wrinkles. Common places to use fillers include the lips, smile lines, smoker’s lines, and in the cheeks. We currently offer a range of hyaluronic acid fillers, including Juvéderm®, Restylane®, and Perlane®, which each lasts up to six months. More permanent fillers, such as Sculptra™ and Radiesse®, are also available. Prior to injection of any filler, we perform a cosmetic consultation to assess patients’ expectations and areas of concern to provide the best correction possible. Botulinum Toxin A (Botox) Our physicians are experts in facial anatomy, and perform Botulinum Toxin A injections to minimize the appearance of wrinkles that naturally occur through facial expression. The result is a softening of creases and an overall more “relaxed” appearance. These injections can also be placed on the neck and used to decrease excessive sweating in the armpits, hands, or feet.

We offer sophisticated approaches for the management of skin cancers, ranging from the most common to the most complicated or rare. At the heart of our program is microscopically controlled excision, known asMohs surgery, the most successful treatment to cure recurrent or other high-risk skin cancers. We have been offering the procedure since 1998, and today, our physicians perform 3,500 Mohs surgeries each year. Mohs surgery has revolutionized the treatment of such skin cancers as basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, and the chances of lasting, disfiguring scars are minimized. In this procedure, the cancer is removed layer by layer, and, after each step, the tissue is examined under a microscope, allowing our dermatologists to confirm that all of the cancer cells have been eliminated as the surgery progresses. This maximizes the chances of removing all of the abnormal cells while still preserving as much of the normal skin tissue as possible.
