Skin Conditions
in Detroit & Dearborn, MI

We’re here to help you understand what’s happening and
guide you toward expert, personalized care.

Acne

Acne is a chronic inflammatory condition that causes clogged pores, blackheads, painful cysts, and persistent breakouts across the face, chest, or back. It can lead to scarring, discoloration, and emotional distress when left untreated or improperly managed.

We offer evidence-based treatments tailored to your skin type and severity.

Actinic Keratosis

Actinic keratoses are rough, scaly patches caused by cumulative sun damage, often appearing on the face, scalp, or hands. Though not always visible, these lesions are considered precancerous and may progress to squamous cell carcinoma.

We treat actinic keratosis early to reduce risk and restore skin health.

Basal Cell
Carcinoma

Basal cell carcinoma is the most common form of skin cancer, often presenting as a pearly bump, sore, or red patch that doesn’t heal. It grows slowly but can invade surrounding tissue and cause significant damage if left untreated.

We remove basal cell carcinoma with surgical precision and long-term follow-up.

Boils

Boils are deep, painful infections of the hair follicle that form swollen, pus-filled nodules beneath the skin. They may rupture, spread, or recur without proper drainage and antimicrobial care.

We treat boils promptly to relieve pain and prevent complications.

Cysts

Cysts are benign, fluid-filled sacs that develop beneath the skin and may become inflamed, tender, or infected. While often harmless, they can grow, rupture, or cause cosmetic concern depending on their size and location.

We offer safe, in-office removal with minimal scarring and downtime.

Dermatitis

Dermatitis refers to inflammation of the skin that may cause redness, itching, flaking, or burning sensations depending on the trigger. It can be allergic, irritant, or chronic, and often flares with stress, exposure, or environmental factors.

We identify the cause and create a treatment plan to calm and protect your skin.

Eczema

Eczema is a chronic condition marked by dry, itchy, and inflamed skin that may crack, bleed, or become infected. It often affects children and adults alike, with flare-ups triggered by allergens, climate, or stress.

We help manage eczema with therapies that restore comfort and prevent recurrence.

Folliculitis

Folliculitis causes red bumps, pustules, or tenderness around hair follicles, often due to friction, shaving, or bacteria. It can spread or become chronic if not treated properly, especially in areas prone to moisture.

We treat folliculitis with targeted care to clear infection and prevent future outbreaks.

Herpes

Herpes presents as painful blisters or sores around the mouth or genitals, often recurring during stress or illness. It’s caused by a viral infection and may be accompanied by tingling, burning, or flu-like symptoms.

We provide antiviral care and guidance to manage outbreaks and reduce transmission.

Hives

Hives appear as raised, itchy welts that may shift in shape, size, or location within hours. They’re often triggered by allergens, stress, or heat and can disrupt sleep or daily comfort.

We help calm hives and identify what’s causing your skin to react.

Hyperpigmentation

Hyperpigmentation causes dark patches or uneven tone due to sun exposure, inflammation, or hormonal shifts. It can affect any skin type and often appears on the face, chest, or hands.

We treat discoloration with therapies tailored to your skin’s needs.

Hyperpigmentation –
Age Spot

Age spots are flat, brown or black marks that develop on sun-exposed areas over time. They are common in older adults and linked to cumulative UV exposure.

We confirm the diagnosis and provide treatments including topical lightening agents, chemical peels and laser therapy to reduce their appearance.

Hyperpigmentation – Brown Spot

Hyperpigmentation – Brown Spot
Brown spots may appear as isolated patches of darker skin caused by excess melanin. They can be triggered by sun exposure, hormones or skin injury.

We assess the cause and recommend treatments such as topical medications, peels or laser options to improve skin tone and clarity.

Hyperpigmentation – Melasma

Melasma presents as symmetrical brown or gray patches, often on the face. It is commonly associated with hormonal changes, pregnancy or sun exposure.

We manage melasma with a combination of sun protection, topical therapies and in-office treatments to reduce pigmentation and prevent recurrence.

Hyperpigmentation – Sun Spot

Sun spots, also called solar lentigines, are flat brown marks that develop after years of sun exposure. They are benign but may resemble other skin conditions.

We evaluate sun spots carefully and offer treatments such as topical agents, peels and laser therapy to lighten pigmentation and improve skin appearance.

Intertrigo

Intertrigo is a rash that forms in skin folds due to moisture, heat, and friction, often appearing red, raw, or irritated. It can lead to secondary infections if not treated properly.

We treat intertrigo with targeted therapies to reduce inflammation and restore comfort.

Keloids

Keloids are raised, thick scars that extend beyond the original injury and may itch or feel firm. They’re more common in certain skin types and can grow over time.

We help flatten keloids and improve skin texture with advanced dermatologic care.

Lipomas

Lipomas are soft, fatty lumps under the skin that grow slowly and are usually painless. Though benign, they may cause discomfort or cosmetic concern depending on their location.
We remove lipomas safely and efficiently with minimal downtime.

Melanoma

Melanoma is a serious form of skin cancer that may appear as a changing mole or dark spot. It can spread quickly and requires early detection for the best outcome.

We diagnose and treat melanoma with urgency, precision, and long-term follow-up

Mole Removal

Moles may be flat or raised, and changes in size, shape, or color can signal concern. Some are removed for medical reasons, others for cosmetic preference.

We assess and remove moles safely, with attention to aesthetics and skin health.

Poison Ivy

Poison ivy triggers an itchy, blistering rash after contact with the plant’s oils, often spreading across exposed skin. Symptoms may worsen without prompt treatment.

We calm allergic reactions and help your skin recover quickly and comfortably.

Psoriasis

Psoriasis causes thick, scaly plaques that may itch, crack, or bleed, commonly affecting the scalp, elbows, or knees. It’s a chronic condition that flares with stress or illness.

We manage psoriasis with therapies that reduce flares and improve skin health.

Rosacea

Rosacea presents as persistent redness, visible blood vessels, or acne-like bumps on the face. It may worsen with heat, alcohol, or stress and affect self-confidence.

We treat rosacea with customized care to calm inflammation and prevent triggers.

Skin Cancer

Skin cancer may appear as a changing mole, a persistent lesion or a new growth. Common types include basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma.

We treat skin cancer with full-body screening, biopsy when indicated, surgical management and ongoing surveillance.

Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Squamous cell carcinoma may appear as a rough, crusted lesion that bleeds or doesn’t heal. It’s a common skin cancer that can grow aggressively if untreated.

We remove squamous cell carcinoma with surgical precision and ongoing surveillance.

Vitiligo

Vitiligo causes loss of pigment in patches that may spread across the face, hands, or body. It can affect appearance and emotional well-being, especially in visible areas.

We offer treatments to restore balance and support skin confidence.
