Medical Dermatology
The Doctors and Physician Assistants at Lake Dermatology Medical Associates have extensive experience with medical dermatology. Here are a few of the conditions that we treat.
Wrinkles
Wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process. They occur most frequently in areas exposed to the sun, such as the face, neck, back of the hands and forearms. Over time, skin gets thinner, drier and less elastic. Learn More
