Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Dermatological care with Dr. Marie Wagener:

What is a Dermatologist?

A dermatologist is a medical doctor specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of skin, hair, and nail conditions. They are crucial for preventing, detecting, and treating skin cancer, and managing a wide range of skin diseases.

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

For average-risk individuals, an annual skin exam is recommended as a vital preventive measure. However, for patients with a personal or family history of skin cancer, or with many moles, Dr. Wagener 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 to preventing skin cancer. Simple habits like daily broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30+, seeking shade during peak sun hours, and wearing protective clothing can significantly reduce your risk. Avoid tanning beds for a lifetime of healthy skin.

How can I prevent my eczema from flaring up?

Managing eczema proactively involves daily moisturizing with a thick, fragrance-free cream, avoiding known triggers, and promptly using prescription medications from Dr. Wagener's office at the first sign of a flare to prevent worsening.

What kind of laser treatments do you offer?

Dr. Wagener's practice utilizes various laser treatments for both preventative and restorative purposes. Different lasers are used to address a wide array of concerns, including unwanted hair removal, rosacea reduction, sun damage improvement, age spot reduction, and acne scar minimization.

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

Acne is a treatable medical condition, not something you have to live with. Dr. Wagener can create a personalized treatment plan, including topical creams, oral medications, and procedures, to prevent scarring and improve your skin and confidence.

What is a skin biopsy?

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

What are Botox® and dermal fillers used for?

Botox® is a neuromodulator that relaxes 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.
