Medical Dermatology
Our board-certified dermatologists diagnose and treat all skin conditions including acne, eczema, psoriasis, and skin cancers. We provide comprehensive evaluations for changing moles and precancerous lesions using advanced diagnostic techniques. Patients receive personalized treatment plans combining topical medications, oral therapies, and in-office procedures.
Mohs Surgery
This specialized micrographic surgery removes skin cancers with 98-99% success rates while preserving healthy tissue. We treat facial and recurrent basal cell/squamous cell carcinomas using precise layer-by-layer excision. Post-operative reconstruction focuses on optimal cosmetic outcomes with scar minimization techniques.
Laser Treatments
Our multi-platform laser system addresses vascular lesions, pigmentation, scars, and aging signs. Treatments include Fraxel for texture improvement, Cutera Excel V for redness reduction, and Lumenis CO2 for resurfacing. Each session is customized using appropriate wavelengths for patients' specific skin concerns and tones.
Cosmetic Injectables
We offer FDA-approved neurotoxins like Botox and dermal fillers including Juvederm and Restylane. Treatments reduce wrinkles, restore facial volume, and improve skin texture through personalized injection techniques. Our specialists use advanced knowledge of facial anatomy to achieve natural-looking rejuvenation results.

Narrow-band UVB therapy effectively treats psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo through controlled light exposure. We also use Blue Light Photodynamic Therapy for precancerous lesions. Treatment protocols follow strict dosing guidelines to maximize efficacy while minimizing potential side effects.

The absolute best! I went there for the first time yesterday as I was tired of the poor treatment and impossibility of getting appointments with my other dermatologist. Not sure why I did not switch years ago! Great staff and just an overall great experience.

The office is beautiful and clean and the staff are caring and knowledgeable. Patients didn't have to wait long to be seen. Dr. Jen is one of the most thorough, qualified. and caring doctors I have ever encountered. That is a unique combination these days. She spent all the time I needed with me and answered all my questions. I highly recommend this practice.

I have been a patient of Dr. Homa and his medical staff for several years and have nothing but the highest regard and appreciation for the treatment they have provided me regarding two complicated frustrating skin issues and skin cancer treatment. Dr Homa personally contacted me on a weekend when I required immediate attention to address the problem. His medical assistants and clerical staff are professional and very helpful assisting the doctors and responsive to patients needs and questions. I highly recommend this practice.

I have seen Nasreen twice and just had my annual skin checkup with her today. She is so diligent and has such an amazing personality! I definitely recommend seeing Nasreen! The appointment process was really easy as well and did not have to wait to be seen during my appointment.

Dr. Fisk is amazing! She understood exactly how I was struggling with my skin and treated it accordingly. I have never felt like I was actually changing my skin for the better; I have always been so insecure but with Dr. Fisk's help, my skin is transforming and I am so happy. I went yesterday for my second appointment and I can't wait to come back in a few months for my next. Her skin is absolutely naturally gorgeous and I knew right away I was in the right place at the first consultation. Go see her, you will be very pleased with her help
