Skin Conditions We Treat:

At Syracuse Plastic Surgery, we provide expert care for a variety of skin concerns, from acne and rosacea to complex skin conditions. Our experienced providers, Brandon NP, and Lindsey PA, work with patients to create personalized treatment plans using advanced techniques and state-of-the-art treatments to help you achieve healthy, radiant skin.

Skin Cancer Removal

We treat all types of skin cancer, including basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), melanoma, and Merkel cell carcinoma. Early detection is vital. Treatments include shave excision, electrocautery, surgical excision, and Mohs surgery. Post-surgical care focuses on healing and minimizing scarring.

Each type of skin cancer has different characteristics and requires specific treatment approaches.

Acne Treatment

This common skin condition occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and painful cysts. Acne can affect not only the face but also the back and chest. It’s most common during teenage years due to an increase in androgens, but adults can also experience breakouts. Causes range from hormonal changes to certain birth control options. We offer treatments tailored to the severity of acne, including topical creams, oral medications, hormone blockers, Morpheus8, and Accutane, prescribed by our expert dermatologic providers.

Eczema Treatment

A chronic skin disorder that results in inflamed, itchy, and irritated patches of skin, also known as atopic dermatitis. Allergens, stress, or dry weather can trigger eczema flare-ups. It’s important to schedule a visit before seasonal changes to manage symptoms. Treatment includes medical-grade skincare, prescription creams, Dupixent (a biologic for children six months or older), and lifestyle adjustments.

Rosacea Treatment

This chronic condition affects the face, causing redness, visible blood vessels, and acne-like bumps. Triggers include sun exposure, spicy foods, pollution, alcohol, and stress, with a genetic predisposition also playing a role. We offer various treatments, including topical medications, oral treatments, and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) therapy, to reduce redness and inflammation.

Warts Removal

Caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV), warts can appear anywhere on the body. We treat various types, including common warts, plantar warts, flat warts, and genital warts. Treatments range from over-the-counter solutions to cryotherapy, electrocautery, and prescription medications.
