Services
Medical Dermatology
Our medical dermatology services diagnose and treat skin, hair, and nail conditions from common issues like acne and eczema to complex cases such as melanoma and vitiligo. Our board-certified specialists provide evidence-based treatments for patients of all ages, addressing concerns ranging from rashes and psoriasis to skin cancer detection. With access to advanced diagnostic tools and treatment options, we ensure comprehensive care for both chronic and acute dermatological conditions.
Mohs Surgery
Mohs surgery offers precise skin cancer treatment with tissue-sparing techniques that maximize cure rates while minimizing scarring. Performed by our fellowship-trained Mohs surgeon at the 7th Street location, this specialized procedure combines surgical excision with immediate microscopic analysis to ensure complete cancer removal. Ideal for treating basal cell carcinomas, squamous cell carcinomas, and select melanomas, particularly in cosmetically sensitive areas like the face.
Cosmetic Services
Our cosmetic dermatology services address aesthetic concerns through non-invasive and minimally invasive procedures. At our 7th Street office, we offer chemical peels, laser genesis, microdermabrasion, and microneedling to improve skin texture and reduce signs of aging. These treatments target brown spots, enlarged pores, fine lines, and uneven pigmentation, helping patients achieve smoother, more youthful-looking skin with minimal downtime and natural results.

Do not go here! Charlotte dermatology does not care about their patients they just care about the check and it is EXPENSIVE. I went to get my skin checked out but did not move forward with any prescriptions/ topicals and they charged me $170. Save your money and find a different dermatologist!

The worst dermatology in charlotte. I had a simple procedure done. Very small cyst removed from my back. My skin is taking forever to heal. My incision is open I have to wait more than a month to see another surgeon to see what's the problem. Despite being healthy with no medical issues.after of couples of months. I saw Dr ElJamel. Had another surgery. He's the best. I wish he did my surgery the first time. He's very professional, kind, listens to your concerns. Answers your questions not the like the first doctor.

I drove 40 minutes one way for a follow-up appointment only to find my doctor is no longer at the Matthews branch. Makes me think if they drop the ball on scheduling maybe they would drop the ball regarding my health. They even sent me a text confirming the appointment for Matthews. It would have been so easy to let me know my doctor is no longer at that branch in that text.

Dr. Slaughter is one of the best in the game, he's very knowledgeable and I highly recommend. My daughter has been battling eczema and other skin conditions for two years, my husband's mom recommended Dr. Slaughter and within months her skin is clearer and better than its been in awhile. Thanks

Beware: this is one of the few practices in Charlotte covered by ACA and they engage in insincere and non transparent financial practices. They don't disclose pricing of biopsies or procedures ahead of time. They also pass off labs and biopsies to providers out of network without notifying patients. Bills are sent half a year later.

On my 1st visit I saw PA Stephanie Weaver for a routine skin check & she was so kind & very thorough. I returned recently to follow up on a mole and saw PA Brannon Puett bc Stephanie Weaver was on maternity leave & he was also super lovely. I know they must be quite busy but I've never felt rushed which I so appreciate. Front desk & check out staff have always been friendly as well.

I saw Dr. Altman at this location and I've never felt so rushed and not listened to. I have an autoimmune disease and have a rhuematologist that I see. When I told him about it, he said "No you don't, it's too rare." After 2 visits, I saw no improvement and he put me on a medication with a lot of side effects. When I expressed my concerns about it, he was very dismissive and unhelpful. I got a second opinion at Paviol Derm down the road and he listened to me, took his time, and helped me get better almost completely.
