Services
Mohs Surgery
Mohs surgery is a precise treatment for skin cancer that removes cancerous tissue layer by layer while preserving healthy skin. Our fellowship-trained surgeons use this technique to achieve high cure rates for basal cell, squamous cell carcinomas, and melanoma. Patients benefit from same-day procedures under local anesthesia and immediate histopathologic analysis for accurate results.
Skin Cancer Screenings
We offer comprehensive skin cancer screenings to detect early signs of melanoma and other skin cancers. Our exams include full-body mole mapping and education on self-monitoring. Early detection is emphasized, with biopsies performed immediately for suspicious lesions to ensure timely treatment and improved outcomes.
Laser Treatments
Our laser treatments address wrinkles, brown spots, and uneven skin texture using technologies like Excel V and Fraxel Restore. These non-invasive procedures stimulate collagen production and improve skin tone. Patients achieve smoother, younger-looking skin with minimal downtime and visible results after a few sessions.
Injectables
We provide FDA-approved injectables like Botox, Dysport, and dermal fillers to reduce wrinkles and enhance facial contours. Treatments target dynamic lines, volume loss, and lip enhancement. Results are natural-looking, with effects lasting several months and tailored to each patient's aesthetic goals.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels improve skin texture by removing dead cells and stimulating new growth. We offer glycolic and salicylic acid peels to treat acne, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines. Regular sessions reveal brighter, more even-toned skin with minimal irritation and quick recovery.

I only trust Dr Binstock with my face and ears. He seems to have a magic touch. No scar on my nose from I grew up in the Tropics so have to constantly deal with Basil cell and once even a melanoma. So I know a good dermatology practice when I see one. I also used a lot of others over the ears in SF. This is my choice. All the support staff from the fr de to the nurses are also very nice and helpful. Which is another requirement of mine.

Professional and friendly staff. I felt welcome from day one. They accept insurance. Dr. Layton is a lovely person and she provided excellent care. I enjoyed that she took the time to explain the procedure of having to remove one of my moles which she did with an expert hand while keeping me comfortable with a pleasant conversation. Her nurse was also lovely and caring. My former dermatologist retired so I am grateful that I found such a nice new place for my dermatology needs. They also do cosmetic procedures, something I'm tempted to explore that in the near future. I definitely recommend this dermatology office.
