My first visit, I went in to have a few different spots looked at their removed them to test while I was the office. Made it very convenient, not to have to schedule another appointment for the biopsy. I received multiple phone calls to schedule my six week follow up, which was today. Everything was handled during biopsy. I would recommend this place to anyone.

As a farmer, I'm outside exposed to the sun. My family has a history of skin cancer. I have been seeing Jennifer for many years and extremely pleased with her knowledge and honesty.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
AMAZING! The staff was welcoming and pleasant. Since 2019, numerous doctors prescribed various treatments that never worked. Dr. Swofford not only listened, she made me feel that I was in the right place. In one day, she resolved an ailment that has plagued me since 2019. Great music selection as well (80s)!!!! 😊

What are seborrheic keratoses?

Seborrheic keratoses are common, non-cancerous skin growths that tend to occur as people age. They can be brown or black and have a warty appearance.

Seborrheic keratoses are frequently found on the chest, back, neck, and head. They can sometimes be irritated with itching or rubbing.

How is seborrheic keratosis diagnosed?

A dermatologist’s exam is frequently all that is needed. The seborrheic keratosis can be biopsied or removed if there is a concern.

What are the treatment options for seborrheic keratosis?

  • Minor surgery to remove the growth (curettement)
  • Shave biopsy
  • Chemical peel
  • Laser surgery

What can you expect?

Before any procedure, you will have a consultation with our expert cosmetic dermatologists. The physician will listen to you, perform a thorough evaluation, and provide an individualized treatment plan to address your needs and concerns.

Any seborrheic keratosis causing irritation can be removed with almost no downtime. Most patients can resume normal activities the next day. Because seborrheic keratoses are benign (non-cancerous) growths, insurance companies often will not pay for their removal. Often, there is an out-of-pocket cost that is not covered by insurance associated with the removal of seborrheic keratoses.

Is treatment of seborrheic keratosis safe?

All procedures carry some risk. However, complications from treatment procedures for seborrheic keratosis are uncommon when performed by board-certified cosmetic dermatologists.
