What is a Dermatologist?

How often should I get a full-body skin exam?

For average-risk individuals, an annual skin exam is recommended. For patients with a personal or family history of skin cancer, or with many moles, Dr. Feinstein may recommend more frequent screenings for early detection.

What is the best way to prevent skin cancer?

Protecting your skin from the sun is key. Daily use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30+ plus seeking shade during peak sun hours, wearing protective clothing, and avoiding tanning beds are simple habits for lifelong skin health. These actions can significantly reduce your risk of skin cancer.

What kind of laser treatments do you offer?

How can I prevent my eczema from flaring up?

Eczema management is about proactive prevention. Key strategies include daily moisturizing with a thick, fragrance-free cream, avoiding known triggers, and using prescription medications from Dr. Feinstein's office at the first sign of a flare to prevent it from worsening.

What is a skin biopsy?

A skin biopsy is a simple, quick in-office procedure. Dr. Feinstein will numb the area and remove a small sample of skin, which is then sent to a lab for examination under a microscope to provide a definitive diagnosis.

I have acne. Is it something I just have to live with?

Acne is a treatable medical condition, not a personal failing. Dr. Feinstein can create a personalized treatment plan, which may include topical creams, oral medications, and procedural options, to prevent scarring and improve your skin and confidence.

What are Botox® and dermal fillers used for?

Botox® is a neuromodulator that relaxes facial muscles, smoothing dynamic wrinkles like frown lines. Dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm® or Restylane®, add volume to restore youthful contours and fill in static lines.
