MOHS Surgery
MOHS micrographic surgery offers precise skin cancer treatment with 95-99% cure rates. This technique preserves healthy tissue while ensuring complete cancer removal. Our board-certified specialists perform this advanced procedure in-office with local anesthesia.

Aesthetic services include Botox, dermal fillers, and laser resurfacing to address aging signs. Ellacor technology provides non-surgical facelift alternatives. Treatments aim to enhance natural features with minimal downtime and natural-looking results.

Laser technology addresses skin texture issues, vascular lesions, and pigmentation concerns. We offer CO2 resurfacing, IPL photofacials, and YAG laser treatments. These non-invasive options improve skin tone and texture with minimal recovery time.
Skin Cancer Screenings
Annual skin cancer screenings identify melanoma and non-melanoma cancers in early, treatable stages. Our specialists examine all skin surfaces using dermatoscopic evaluation. High-risk patients receive more frequent monitoring for optimal outcomes.

Don't be distracted by the two negative reviews. Obviously these were some impatient patients with no patience. Things happen and sometimes you have to wait. That's what happens with people now adays, they believe they are the most important people around.

Waited 1 hour 45 minutes only to walk out. I had other appointments and commitments that I had to make. Other patients were waiting just as long as I was. Even if I decided to stay, I was getting hungry because the wait was cutting into my dinner time. I'm sure if I didn't walk out, my office plants would eventually die off from lack of water due to me still having to wait.

Been going to Dr. Balin for a few years now, I have been treated with respect and have been amazed by the outcome of every surgery I had. I highly recommend going to see him.

1.5+ hour waits for at least 3 appointments now. Complete disrespect for patients' time. It's too bad because the office is less than 5 min from my home. I will be looking for a new dermatologist in the area.

Best dermatologist ever! He is absolutely thorough, careful, cautious and extremely professional. I've gone to other doctors for screenings and after quick glances. they say, ".all is OK". Go to Balin, he finds an overlooked melanoma. Yes, you do wait. but for the correct diagnosis, you have to.
