The complaint we hear most from Kendall and West Kendall patients is the wait. A suspicious mole or acne that is scarring does not fit a three-month lead time, and urgent-care visits for skin problems rarely end with an actual diagnosis.
We are a small practice, which is the whole reason our schedule moves. From Kendall Drive or SW 88th Street the drive up 87th or 97th Avenue to SW 8th Street takes about fifteen minutes outside rush hour, and there is on-site parking.
Skin conditions get examined and named, not just creamed. Common reasons Kendall patients come in:
West Kendall searches for cosmetic dermatology usually end at a spa where the person injecting is not the person who can diagnose the skin. That matters when a treatment goes wrong, when pigment reacts, or when what you actually need is medical.
Our cosmetic side covers Botox and fillers, laser hair removal, resurfacing, microneedling with PRP, chemical peels and PRP facials. Everything starts with an assessment of what is causing the concern, not a menu.
South Florida gives residents year-round UV exposure, and Kendall families spend a lot of it outdoors. Anyone with a history of sunburns, tanning, outdoor work or sport, fair skin, many moles, or a family history of melanoma should have a baseline full-skin examination.
A screening is a systematic look at the whole skin surface, including scalp, ears, back and feet. Anything suspicious is documented, and biopsy is done in-office when needed. Detail is on full-body skin exam, melanoma detection, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
Medical dermatology visits are billed to insurance; most major plans are accepted and listed on our insurance page. Cosmetic treatment is self-pay. If you are unsure which category your concern falls into, say what is happening when you call and we will tell you.
