Our Specialized Dermatology Services
We provide expert evaluations and customized treatment plans for the most common (and frustrating) skin concerns facing Savannah residents.
Acne & Acne Scarring
Ditch the “trial and error” of drugstore aisles. We offer comprehensive evaluations and management for active acne and the texture issues it leaves behind.
- Treatments: Topical and oral prescriptions, plus medical-grade non-prescription options.
- Advanced Tech: We utilize Sciton BBL (BroadBand Light) to kill acne-causing bacteria and the Sciton Halo Laser to remodel stubborn acne scarring.
- Note: We do not prescribe Accutane (Isotretinoin). Patients requiring that level of care will be referred to General Dermatology.
- Consultation: $50 (Required for prescription treatment; cash pay, insurance not accepted).
Rosacea & Acneic Rosacea
Stop hiding the flush. We specialize in managing the redness, visible vessels, and bumps associated with Rosacea.
- Treatments: Oral medications, topical therapies, and BBL Phototherapy to target the vascular components of Rosacea.
- Consultation: $50 (Required for prescription treatment).
Hyperpigmentation, Age Spots, & Melasma
Savannah’s sun can be unforgiving. We treat a wide range of pigment issues, including Melasma—the hormonally driven “mask of pregnancy” common in Mediterranean skin types.
- Treatments: Prescription and non-prescription skincare, BBL, and targeted lasers.
- Consultation: Complimentary.
Perioral Dermatitis
Does your skin have a red, bumpy, or burning rash around the mouth? It might not be acne—it could be Perioral Dermatitis. Often triggered by heavy makeup or steroid creams, this requires a patient, medical approach.
- Treatments: Prescription creams and/or antibiotics to clear the rash.
- Consultation: $50 (Required for prescription treatment).
Dry Skin & Barrier Repair
Is your skin feeling itchy, tight, or “parched”? We offer professional options to heal your skin barrier and restore lasting hydration.
- Consultation: Complimentary.
Safety & Clinical Standards: The Cold Sore Protocol
Your safety is our priority. Cold sores (HSV-1) are common, but they can be triggered by intensive skin treatments.
- For Ablative/Resurfacing Lasers: Antiviral medication (Valtrex/valacyclovir) is mandatory. We will provide a prescription starting 1 day prior and continuing 7 days after treatment.
- For Microneedling & Injectables: If you have a history of cold sores, we strongly recommend prophylactic treatment.
- Prescriptions: We provide these prescriptions to your pharmacy of choice at no additional cost to ensure your treatment is safe and successful.
Transparency in Care
We are a cash-pay boutique medical practice. This allows us to spend more time with you and offer the most advanced treatments available without the constraints of insurance providers.
