Dr. Brandon T. Beal is double board-certified and fellowship-trained in Mohs surgery, facial plastic & reconstructive surgery, and dermatologic oncology. This advanced background supports careful evaluation of suspicious lesions and precise procedural care when medically indicated.

Medical Dermatology

Our office provides comprehensive medical dermatology for Missouri residents. We treat acne, perform skin cancer screenings, evaluate and remove moles, and manage chronic conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and rosacea. We also treat warts, cysts, and other benign skin growths. Every diagnosis and treatment plan is tailored to the individual, with a focus on long-term skin health and evidence-based care.

Cosmetic Dermatology

We offer cosmetic dermatology services designed to enhance natural features while maintaining balance and expression. Treatments include dermal fillers for facial restoration; acne scar treatments such as subcision, microneedling, and laser procedures; and laser treatments for pigmentation and sun damage. Each cosmetic consultation includes personalized recommendations based on your goals, skin type, and desired downtime. Results vary, and a consultation is required.

Surgical Procedures

Our practice provides advanced surgical dermatology with careful attention to both medical precision and cosmetic outcome. We perform skin cancer excisions, cyst and lipoma removal, scar revision procedures, and reconstructive repairs when needed following skin cancer removal or trauma. Dr. Beal’s fellowship training in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery allows for thoughtful repair techniques that aim to preserve both function and appearance.

Mohs Surgery

For certain types of skin cancer, Mohs Micrographic Surgery may be recommended. Dr. Beal is fellowship-trained in this specialized, tissue-sparing technique that enables precise removal of cancer while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible. During the procedure, tissue is examined under a microscope in real time to ensure clear margins before reconstruction. When appropriate, repairs are completed the same day to optimize healing and cosmetic outcomes.

If it’s changing, bleeding, painful, itchy, or not healing—or it simply looks different from your other spots—it’s reasonable to schedule an evaluation.

Yes. We treat acne across all ages and tailor plans to your acne type, skin sensitivity, and medical history.

Sometimes, depending on the exam findings and visit type. If a mole appears concerning, we’ll prioritize the safest, medically appropriate next step.

No. Many patients prefer subtle, natural-looking improvement. We can discuss conservative options based on your goals.
