Botox
Our Botox treatments effectively reduce facial wrinkles and prevent new lines from forming. Administered by experienced professionals, this non-surgical solution targets dynamic wrinkles around the eyes, forehead, and between eyebrows. Patients appreciate the quick procedure with minimal downtime, achieving smoother, more youthful-looking skin that lasts several months.
Laser Treatments
We offer advanced laser treatments for skin rejuvenation, hair removal, and scar reduction. Using state-of-the-art technology, our specialists customize treatments to address pigmentation, vascular lesions, and skin texture concerns. These precise, minimally invasive procedures stimulate collagen production while maintaining safety for all skin tones.
Skin Cancer Screening
Our comprehensive skin cancer screenings include thorough examinations of moles and suspicious growths. Board-certified dermatologists perform biopsies when necessary and offer Mohs surgery for confirmed cases. Early detection services help prevent cancer progression while preserving healthy tissue through precise diagnostic techniques.
Chemical Peels
Our chemical peels address acne, sun damage, and uneven skin texture through controlled exfoliation. Available in varying strengths, these treatments remove dead skin cells to reveal brighter, smoother skin underneath. Patients experience improved tone and texture with minimal recovery time compared to more invasive procedures.
Mohs Surgery
Dr. Nikki Tang performs specialized Mohs surgery for precise skin cancer removal. This micrographic technique ensures complete cancer cell elimination while preserving maximum healthy tissue. The procedure includes immediate lab analysis and reconstructive repair, offering high cure rates for complex skin cancer cases.

Dr. Lisa Benest tried to sell me homeopathic medicine, who anyone with access to Wikipedia can find out is considered pseudoscience by the medical community. Whenever I asked her what the homeopathic medicine did, she just gave me vague "it ballances out your body chemistry" answers and could not explain on medical terms. Next time I'll just buy crystals and rub them on face. Bunch of snake oil salesmen and could not wait to get out of there.

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. If I could give them no stars I would. Long story short, I missed my appointment due to work related issues, and then called to reschedule. The lady who answered me was incredibly rude and disrespectful. Apparently, if I didn't show up there would be a $60 dollar fee. This was supposedly in an email and/or text sent to me. HOWEVER, the woman acknowledged that there was no email on file and none of my text history shows any message with that information. Moreover, the woman had the audacity to get mad at me, for questioning her about it, saying "that's just how doctos work".
As if that Alleviates them of all responsibility. They are the ones that failed to communicate this information and then get mad at me about it. Additionally, Ive missed a few doctors appointments in my life but I never was charged any kind of fee. So far as I'm aware of. Needless to say I canceled my appointment and plan on finding another specialist. This place is definitely not worth anyone's time. I recommend you find somewhere where they treat their clients with understanding and respect.

Yesterday I saw Dr. Benest for the first time. What a breath of fresh air. A doctor that is not only compassionate but understanding to someone who wants to use more natural salutations for a health related issue. She was kind, compassionate and open minded.thank you. You are a rare find. From the amazing people in the front to the back, everyone was outstanding. Thank you all for your thoughtfulness.

I've been going to Advanced Dermatology Center for over a year. They are hands down the best Burbank dermatologists and estheticians! I regularly get facials from Yvonne - she's the best in business! The regular facials and the hydra facials are amazing! Highly recommend Advanced Dermatology Center if you are looking for the best facial in Burbank!

Dr. Lisa Benest was incredibly thorough and ensured that I was well taken care of not only when it came to dermatology, but also with everything else (gastro, gyno, etc). It's nice to find a doctor that understands the root of body issues and works to address the cause rather than just treat the singular symptom. Will definitely be back! :)

Dr. Lisa Benest is an exceptionally brilliant doctor. I trust her completely to fully understand what is going on with my skin and fully handle it. I have been seeing her since 2004 and she has handled precancerous bumps I get from sun exposure, and cancerous spots as well. Dr. Benest found a melanoma on my leg that got surgically extracted and thanks to her it was caught and never spread. She's a stellar doctor and I would recommend her to anyone!
