Medical dermatology is the treatment of skin conditions, such as psoriasis, rosacea, acne, skin cancer, warts, keloids and cysts. Medical solutions may include laser therapy, surgical removal, or medicines depending on the specific condition.

Unlike cosmetic dermatology, which focuses on aesthetics, medical dermatology focuses on the health of the skin. By correcting abnormalities of the skin, the appearance may be improved. Care is taken to minimize scarring and treat the skin with the most effective methods available.

LA Laser Center employs the latest techniques and tools to treat skin conditions. Boils and cysts are removed using a minimal scar technique. Laser therapy, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, photodynamic laser therapy and fractionated CO2 laser therapy are some of the techniques we use to treat acne. Acne scars can be treated by a process called photodynamic rejuvenation.  Moles, birthmarks, rosacea and scars typically respond well to laser therapy. Moles may be removed as a preventative measure against skin cancer.

In addition to common skin conditions, we detect and treat skin cancer. By monitoring moles and other unusual growths on the skin, we can identify skin cancer early and design a treatment plan. Skin cancer can typically be cured when caught early on.

We are nationally recognized for our Mohs micrographic surgery, a precise skin cancer treatment that has a high rate of success. Mohs surgery removes the skin cancer layer by layer. When tissue is removed, it is examined under a microscope until cancer-free tissue is reached. The careful examination of the tissue layers helps ensure the complete removal of skin cancer.

Using the latest medical dermatology treatments, LA Laser Center can improve the health and quality of life of patients living with uncomfortable or unsightly skin disorders. We have the most comprehensive lasers in Southern California. Our wide range of treatments means we can customize a treatment plan for your specific needs.
