Services
Mohs Micrographic Surgery
Mohs Micrographic Surgery is a precise outpatient procedure for removing aggressive skin cancers with 99% cure rates. Using local anesthesia, we excise cancerous tissue layer by layer while examining margins in our in-house labs. This technique preserves healthy skin and ensures complete cancer removal during a single visit. Patients receive immediate wound repair instructions following the procedure.
Skin Cancer Treatment
We offer comprehensive skin cancer treatment options including early detection through annual exams, biopsies, and both surgical and nonsurgical interventions. Our services range from cryotherapy for precancerous lesions to advanced Mohs surgery for complex cases. Patients receive personalized treatment plans supported by in-house pathology analysis.
Actinic Keratosis Care
Our clinic provides targeted treatment for actinic keratosis using red light therapy and other evidence-based methods. These precancerous skin growths receive specialized attention through early intervention strategies to prevent progression to squamous cell carcinoma while maintaining skin aesthetics.
Psoriasis Management
We offer biologic therapy and traditional treatment options for psoriasis patients seeking relief from chronic skin inflammation. Our approach combines medical interventions with personalized skincare guidance to manage flare-ups and improve quality of life for patients with moderate to severe psoriasis.
Acne Treatment
Our acne treatment programs address mild to severe cases using Accutane and other targeted therapies. We specialize in treating adolescent patients while providing long-term skincare education to prevent scarring and maintain clear skin through different life stages.

Report
Absolutely terrible service. We paid some condescending doctor 150 so he could tell us, "I can drain the cyst but I'm not going to as it may come back". We pleaded our case but he refused. You would think a private clinic would get the job done but no; instead this doc spoke to us as if we were school children. He made sarcastic comments, even told us off and started smirking when we were visibly frustrated.
This dude gave me dirty looks when I placed a small handbag on a desk. All-in-all we are extremely upset with how we've been treated and will be making further complaints about this abysmal experience.

I recently visited the clinic for an earlobe repair on both ears. The staff in all areas were friendly and helpful. The consultation process was quick and informative. The nurse and surgeon ensured I was comfortable and relaxed. My operation has been wholly successful and is healing well. I would like to say a big thank you to the whole team.

Would 100% recommend skin surgery clinic after having upper eyelid surgery recently. I am absolutely over the moon with the results. All of the staff were lovely and caring and made my experience alot less worrying. I came out of the surgery wondering why I was so nervous as the whole experience was very calming and reassuring from start to finish.
