Our expert care and innovative general dermatology treatments keep your skin healthy, resilient, and vibrant.

What Is General Dermatology?

General Dermatology is a medical specialty that covers the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of a wide array of skin conditions. It involves treating skin disorders that impact not just your face but your entire body. Some common skin conditions that can affect health and appearance are moles, acne, and skin cancers.

Do I Need to See a Dermatologist?

The skin is your largest organ and it acts as your first line of defense against environmental threats. Regular skin examinations done by a professional are crucial for maintaining skin health.

You may need to see a dermatologist if you notice changes in your skin. This could include new or changing moles, persistent acne, skin discoloration, rashes, or unexplained itching. Early detection of skin conditions, including skin cancers, increases the chances of successful treatment.

What Treatments Do We Offer?

At SCCSNJ, we provide a range of treatment options that can be customized to treat a wide variety of skin conditions.

Acne Treatment

Persistent acne can be more than a cosmetic concern. Treatment is guided by the type of acne, such as comedonal acne, hormonal acne, inflammatory acne, and severe cystic acne. We offer tailored acne treatments to reduce the severity of your acne, prevent scarring, and improve your skin’s overall health.

Actinic Keratosis

Actinic Keratosis is a precursor to skin cancer, and it’s incredibly important to take care of it as soon as you notice it. We offer expert treatments that help stop the condition from progressing. This greatly reduces the risk of developing skin cancers.

Alopecia

If you’re experiencing hair loss, we provide compassionate, expert care. Our advanced treatments for alopecia help you to manage this often distressing condition. Dr Lombardi is an alopecia specialist with years of experience treating hair loss in men and women. At SCCSNJ, we can design a personalized treatment plan to help manage your alopecia.

Rosacea

Our dermatologists provide effective treatments to manage rosacea, a common skin condition that causes redness and visible blood vessels in the face. Treatment aims to control and reduce flare-ups,  helping you feel confident and comfortable in your skin. This may include a tailored skin regimen, prescription topical therapy, and IPL treatment to help you achieve the clear skin you’ve always wanted.

Warts

Warts are a common benign (non-cancerous) growth of the skin, caused by a human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. They can be incredibly frustrating to treat at home. We offer safe and effective wart removal treatments, easing discomfort and reducing the risk of spreading the infection.

Benefits of Treatments

Our general dermatology treatments offer numerous benefits. They improve skin health, enhance appearance, and contribute to your overall well-being. Regular treatments and check-ups also allow for early detection and treatment of skin cancers, offering the best chances for successful outcomes.

What Are the Risks Involved?

Although dermatological treatments are generally safe, some procedures may carry risks. This can include potential side effects from medications, or minor discomfort following certain procedures. Our dermatologists will discuss these with you in detail, ensuring that you understand and are comfortable with your treatment plan before proceeding.

How Much Do the Treatments Cost?

The cost of treatments can vary depending on the skin condition, the type of procedure, and the individual treatment plan. Our team will provide you with an in-depth cost estimate and assist you in navigating your insurance benefits.
