Drs. Akash Patel and Kevin Kia want the best for you and your family. We strive to treat all of our patients as we would want to be treated. Since our practice is a General Dermatology office, we take care of Medical and Surgical Dermatology concerns. Our main focus is the detection and treatment of skin cancers (abnormal moles, pre-cancer lesions, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma). We perform comprehensive skin examinations for the detection and treatment of pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions. We perform biopsies of any suspicious or changing lesions. Our practice treats skin cancers with either Electrodesiccation and Curettage (ED&C) or surgical excision in our office under local anesthesia. We also surgically treat warts, molluscum, cysts, pyogenic granulomas, and other benign lesions. We commonly remove irritated or bothersome moles or lesions such as skin tags and seborrheic keratoses. We also treat keloids (thick scars) and certain types of hair loss (alopecia areata) with intralesional injections. We offer nbUVB treatment (phototherapy) for various conditions like eczema, psoriasis, vitiligo, CTCL, and pruritus. Our practice also takes care of numerous other common conditions including acne, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, allergic skin reactions, skin infections (viral, bacterial or fungal), melasma, and rashes.
