We provide medical and cosmetic dermatology to people in Denniston, New York. In short, we diagnose new or changing lesions, treat acne and chronic rashes, perform focused procedures in our office, and plan follow up with primary care when needed.
What we treat for Denniston residents
Our practice sees the range of concerns you would expect from a local dermatology clinic. We manage inflammatory conditions like eczema and psoriasis, treat acne in teens and adults, evaluate and remove skin lesions that are new or changing, address scars and offer cosmetic options, and treat nail disorders. For an overview of our scope see our dermatology services.
Common, directly relevant services include acne treatment for adolescents and adults, skin lesion evaluation and treatment for new or changing moles, and scar revision and cosmetic approaches when appearance is the main concern.
Local conditions that affect skin care in Denniston
Denniston residents spend time both indoors and outdoors, and local weather patterns influence skin health. Seasonal sun exposure raises concern for abnormal moles and skin cancer, while shifts in temperature and humidity can worsen eczema or flare acne. We pay attention to these local influences when we develop a treatment plan.
If you notice a new spot, a changing mole, or a rash that does not improve with over the counter care, schedule an evaluation so we can determine whether medical treatment or a procedure is needed.
How we approach care in Denniston
We follow a clear, patient centered process that balances medical priorities and cosmetic goals. We explain options in plain language and build a plan you can follow.
- Focused evaluation. We take a history and examine the area to distinguish inflammatory conditions, infections and suspicious lesions.
- Diagnosis and testing. When needed we perform a biopsy or laboratory testing to confirm the diagnosis and guide treatment.
- Treatment plan. Options may include topical or oral medications, in office procedures for lesions or scarring, or cosmetic approaches for appearance concerns.

Frequently asked questions
When should I have a mole or spot evaluated?
Have a new spot or a mole that changes in size, color, shape or texture evaluated promptly. We assess risk factors and, if needed, perform a biopsy to rule out skin cancer. See our page on skin cancer screening for more information on what we look for.
What should I bring to my first dermatology visit?
Bring a list of current medications, a brief history of the skin concern, information about prior treatments, and photographs of the problem if it fluctuates. If your primary care provider sent a referral, let us know so we can coordinate records.
Do you treat acne in teenagers and adults?
Yes. We treat acne across age groups with options that include topical and oral medications, procedural options when appropriate, and scar prevention strategies. Learn about approaches on our acne treatment page.
Will you coordinate care with my other doctors?
We routinely coordinate with primary care and referring physicians. When a condition affects overall health, like severe psoriasis or suspected skin cancer, coordinated care helps ensure the best outcome.
