Patients receive comprehensive education about Mohs surgery options and appropriate treatment pathways. The practice emphasizes early detection and personalized follow-up care to ensure optimal outcomes.

The practice maintains strict safety protocols while delivering customized aesthetic solutions that address each patient's unique concerns and goals.
General Dermatology
Comprehensive general dermatology care addresses skin, hair, and nail conditions across all ages. The practice manages common issues like acne, eczema, and psoriasis while monitoring for systemic health indicators. Board-certified expertise ensures accurate diagnoses and effective treatment plans tailored to each patient's specific needs and medical history.

Customized chemical peel treatments improve skin texture and address various concerns through tailored solutions. The practice offers specialized peeling agents combined with pre- and post-treatment regimens. Procedures are adapted to individual skin types and conditions, with recovery times ranging from several days to weeks based on treatment depth.
Microneedling
Microneedling treatments stimulate collagen production through controlled micro-injuries. The procedure improves skin texture, reduces scarring, and enhances product absorption. Optional enhancements with growth factors or retinol peels boost results. Patients typically see progressive improvement over six months with minimal downtime between sessions.

I have been a patient of Dr Kittridge for 2 years and I cant say enough about her......kind, caring, patient, and very knowledgeable! I love that I can easily make an appointment online and see her that week. Dr. Kittridge has also been wonderful helping my 3 teenage daughters with treating acne and developing a skin care routine.
