Services
Mohs Surgery
Mohs micrographic surgery precisely removes skin cancer while preserving healthy tissue. Our fellowship-trained surgeons achieve 98-99% cure rates for common skin cancers using this specialized technique. Patients benefit from same-day treatment with immediate laboratory analysis of excised tissue margins.
Botox Injections
FDA-approved Botox injections temporarily reduce facial wrinkles by relaxing underlying muscles. Our certified injectors create natural-looking results for frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead wrinkles. Treatments take 10-15 minutes with visible improvement within days.
Laser Treatments
Advanced laser therapies address pigmentation, vascular lesions, and skin texture irregularities. The Gentlemax Pro system safely treats unwanted hair, sun damage, and facial veins while stimulating collagen production for smoother, more youthful skin.
Chemical Peels
Medical-grade chemical peels improve skin texture and tone by removing damaged outer layers. We offer varying peel strengths to address acne, hyperpigmentation, and early aging signs. Patients see progressive improvement with series of treatments.
Psoriasis Care
Comprehensive psoriasis management combines topical treatments, phototherapy, and biologic therapies. Our providers develop personalized plans to reduce flare-ups and minimize associated health risks. Regular monitoring ensures optimal long-term disease control.

I've been going to Southeastern Dermatology for a good number of years and have always been pleased with the care I receive. I have always been seen promptly at my appointment time and received the attention that I needed. In one instance, when skin cancer was found on my nose, it was removed completely and I received appropriate followup care. I would highly recommend Southeastern Dermatology to anyone.

This place is great, especially for a pasty Irish sunlover like myself. Great staff, thorough exam, and good advice. Everything from check in to the exam was seamless. Their office manager is clearly on point, and good lookin too!
