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.

We’ll review your medical history, discuss your concerns, and examine the areas that are bothering you. If a plan is needed, we’ll walk through options and help you choose what fits best.

We work with many insurance plans. Call our office, and we’ll help confirm details and what you should bring.

Often, no. Some insurance plans may require one—our team can help you navigate that when you call.

Our office is in Troy, MO, which is typically a manageable drive from Wentzville, depending on where you’re coming from.

This was my first visit and Kayleigh NP was my provider. She was absolutely amazing. She knew what the issue was right away and even realized I also had another issue going on and also addressed that. I appreciate her patience, knowledge , and kindness.
