For many of the diseases we treat, there are different treatment options or surgical services that we can provide.
While other practices focus on cosmetics, Dermatology Associates of Virginia takes pride in concentrating on straightforward, cost-effective treatment of medical skin diseases and exemplary surgical removal of skin cancers and other skin growths that require treatment. Our practice focuses on the management of skin diseases from the commonplace to the complex.

A commonly used procedure to treat warts, precancerous lesions, and some types of skin cancers. The freezing temperature results in the destruction of the affected tissue.
A frequently used form of surgery for the removal of benign and invasive skin lesions. Heat generated by the heated electrosurgical system destroys the affected tissue.
This procedure results in the complete removal of benign and malignant lesions when indicated. This also allows for microscopic analysis of the affected tissue. A certified dermatopathologist is on staff to provide expert pathologic diagnoses.

Mohs Micrographic Surgery is a highly effective technique used to treat skin cancer. It was developed by Frederic Mohs, MD in the 1930s at the University of Wisconsin. This treatment allows Mohs surgeons to remove cancerous areas while preserving the maximum amount of healthy tissue as possible. Only certain types of skin cancers and locations on the body are eligible for Mohs. Your dermatologist will work with you to determine if your skin cancer qualifies.

We are pleased to offer our patients specialized laser services provided under the direct care of Dr. Carol Byrd at our Reynolds Crossing office. Dr. Byrd treats patients with a variety of skin care concerns.
Over a series of treatments, dramatic, permanent hair reduction can be achieved. We offer three different lasers to remove unwanted hair. The Alexandrite and IPL systems are best for lighter skin and darker hair, and the Nd:Yag is safe for all skin tones.
Photo-rejuvenation uses IPL or Intense Pulsed Light to treat the entire face, chest, hands and other areas of the body leaving skin looking younger and feeling smooth. Using different wavelengths of light to target areas beneath the skin, IPL photo-rejuvenation leaves the outer layer of skin virtually untouched.
The Nd:Yag and KTP lasers are used to treat small blood vessels, angiomas, and telangeictasias on the face as well as spider veins on the body.
