The Gallery of Dermatology and Advanced Aesthetics Services

Acne and Rosacia

+

Acne and Rosacea is a skin care service that helps with common facial skin conditions: acne breakouts, redness, and irritation. It offers diagnosis, personalised treatment plans, skincare routines, and guidance to reduce symptoms and improve skin appearance.

Body Contouring

+

Body Contouring refers to non-surgical or surgical procedures that reshape and sculpt areas of the body to improve contours, typically targeting fat, skin, or muscle areas through treatments like liposuction, coolSculpting, or skin-tightening methods.

Botox

+

Botox is a cosmetic treatment that injects tiny amounts of purified toxin into facial muscles to temporarily relax them, reducing wrinkles. It’s quick, usually takes a few minutes, with mild, short-lived side effects and results appearing in days to weeks.

Dermal Fillers

+

Dermal fillers are injectable gel treatments that add volume and smooth wrinkles, usually in the face. A clinician injects soft material under the skin to plump lips, cheeks, or lines, with a quick procedure and temporary results or optional longer-lasting options.

Dermaplaning

+

Dermaplaning is a gentle facial treatment that uses a sterile blade to remove dead skin cells and fine facial hairs, leaving skin smoother and brighter. It involves a quick scraping motion over clean, dry skin followed by moisturizer.

Eczema

+

Eczema is a skin condition causing red, itchy, dry patches. It involves care such as regular moisturising, avoiding irritants, gentle cleansing, and sometimes prescribed creams or medicine to reduce itching and inflammation.

Filler

+

Filler is a cosmetic treatment that adds volume to areas like lips or cheeks using safe gel injections, smoothing lines or wrinkles and enhancing facial contours. It involves a quick procedure, local anesthesia, and temporary results that typically last several months.

Hair and Nail Conditions

+

Hair and Nail Conditions is a service that assesses and treats issues affecting hair and nails, such as thinning, breakage, and infections, through exams, advice, and targeted therapies to improve strength, appearance, and health.

Hydrafacial

+

Hydrafacial is a noninvasive facial treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, extracts impurities, and hydrates the skin using a wand with serums, leaving the complexion refreshed and glowing with minimal downtime.

Laser Facial

+

Laser Facial is a skincare treatment that uses focused light to remove or reduce skin imperfections. It targets wrinkles, redness, or blemishes, stimulates collagen, and may involve cleaning, cooling, and protective sunscreen during and after the procedure.

Laser Hair Removal

+

Laser Hair Removal is a cosmetic treatment that uses focused light to target hair follicles, reducing hair growth. A technician applies a laser to the skin, sometimes with cooling, in short sessions until hair becomes finer and grows back more slowly.

Lip Filler

+

Lip Filler is a cosmetic procedure that uses injectable filler to add volume and shape to the lips. It involves numbing the area, injecting safe substances under the skin, and may require touch-ups over time to maintain the look.

Microneedling

+

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that uses tiny needles to create small skin channels, stimulating the body’s healing response. It involves numbing the area, treating the skin with a specialized device, and applying creams or serums during and after the session.

Moles

+

Moles is a service that helps detect and monitor skin spots for changes over time, using simple checks and guidance from professionals to assess normal moles and identify suspicious ones that may need a dermatologist evaluation.

Pediatric Skin Conditions

+

Pediatric Skin Conditions is a medical service that helps diagnose and treat skin issues in children, such as rashes, eczema, warts, and infections. It involves exams, age-appropriate care, treatment plans, and follow-up to keep kids healthy and comfortable.

Pre-cancers/Actinic Keratoses

+

This service covers early skin changes called actinic keratoses (rough patches from sun damage). It involves assessing the lesions, confirming they’re pre-cancerous, and treating or monitoring them to prevent progression, with options like topical meds or minor procedures.

Psoriasis

+

Psoriasis is a skin condition where red, scaly patches form due to fast skin cell growth. It can itch or feel painful and may flare up with triggers like stress, infections, or skin injuries. Treatments aim to reduce symptoms and prevent new outbreaks.

Skin Cancer

+

Skin Cancer is a health service that explains what skin cancer is, how it happens, and what to do. It covers symptoms, risk factors, prevention tips, screenings, and treatment options in simple, easy-to-understand terms.

Skin Infections, Warts, and Molluscum

+

Skin Infections, Warts, and Molluscum is a medical service that diagnoses and treats common skin infections, warts, and molluscum contagiosum, explaining causes, testing if needed, and providing treatments or remedies to improve skin health.

Skin Tags

+

Skin Tags is a simple medical service that removes small, harmless skin growths. It involves quick, in-office techniques like snipping or freezing to detach the tag, with minimal discomfort and a brief recovery.

​Skin Discoloration and Melasma

+

Skin Discoloration and Melasma refers to darker patches on the skin, usually on the face, caused by sun exposure, hormones, or certain products. The service involves assessment, skincare guidance, sun protection, and treatment options to even out tone.

I’ve been Dr Fontenot’s patient for over 3 years and have received excellent medical dermatology care. She is extremely competent , thorough, and her clinic has the best products and technology available. She is always on schedule so I never had to wait. I don’t believe there’s another professional as skilled and good as she is. My skin has improved so much thanks to their thoughtful treatment plans. Professional staff, efficient office, and great overall experience.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Kerri Davis-Fontenot for my skin condition, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very first visit, she made me feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for. She took the time to explain my condition in a way I could understand and created a treatment plan that was both effective and easy to follow. My skin has improved more than I ever expected, and I finally feel confident again. Dr. Davis-Fontenot’s professionalism, kindness, and knowledge truly set her apart. I’m beyond grateful for the care I’ve received and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dermatologist who truly goes above and beyond.

Everyone there is so sweet, and Doc. Fontenot is extremely knowledgeable and listens to your concerns thoroughly before talking about different treatment plans.
