Mohs Surgeons are dermatologists who have gained additional training in Mohs Surgery. Mohs Surgery focuses on the excision of skin cancers using a tissue-sparing technique that allows assessment of the tumor and its removal during the procedure.
Acne and Rosacea Experts are dermatologists who specialize in treating the outbreaks of acne and flare-ups of rosacea.
