Because a wide variety of skin problems can develop, we treat many skin ailments with our dermatology services at Minneapolis Anti Aging and Skin Clinic. Each of these treatments have unique techniques and benefits, depending on the issues being addressed. Among the dermatology services now offered by Minneapolis Skin Clinic are the following:

Mole Removal

Moles can sometimes feel unsightly, especially when they develop in areas not readily covered by clothing. Removing a mole can be accomplished in several ways, though the two primary means are via excision or a shave method. Both of these methods require some degree of a cut to the skin, however only one requires stitches. In some cases, lasers or extreme cold may be used to assist in mole removal, but usually a practitioner will use a topical numbing agent, such as lidocaine, to control patient discomfort. The benefits of mole removal are both aesthetic and health-related, as moles can sometimes be atypical or worse case, a melanoma.

Benign Lesion Removal

Benign lesions can develop for a variety of reasons, but many patients feel uncomfortable with them. Whether it be genetics, sun exposure, or bad luck, removing the lesion can be incredibly important to the self-esteem and self-confidence of patients.

Acne Evaluation and Treatment Recommendation

While usually considered to be a signature of teenager youth, acne can actually strike at any age. While much depends on diet and lifestyle, genetics also play a significant role in acne development. At Minneapolis Skin Clinic, our dermatology services offer comprehensive acne evaluation and treatment recommendation services to all ages, keeping in mind that recommendations often change based on one’s age.
