Scars & Lesions
Our board-certified dermatologists offer personalized treatment options for scars and lesions to help your skin look and feel its best.
What Are Scars & Lesions?
Scars form when the skin repairs itself after an injury, surgery, or severe inflammation. When the deepest layer of skin (the dermis) is damaged, the body produces collagen to rebuild the area, which leaves a visible mark. Scars can range from flat and pale to raised, thickened, or discolored, depending on how the wound healed and your individual skin.
Skin lesions are any abnormal growth, mark, or change on the surface of the skin. They can include cysts, moles, warts, lipomas, and other benign formations. While most lesions are not harmful, they can be uncomfortable, cosmetically bothersome, or difficult to monitor on your own.
Both scars and lesions are highly treatable. Whether you're looking to reduce the appearance of an old scar or have a new growth evaluated, our dermatologists are here to help you understand your options and find the right path forward.

5 stars plus! The front desk person was polite, courteous and efficient. The wait to see the doctor was less than 10 minutes.

In my humble opinion, the overall experience at this clinic was superb. The whole staff had a great balance of being personal & professional throughout the appt.

Sandy W.
Excellent physician. Extremely proactive.
Sandy W.
What an outstanding experience this was. It is always alarming when you hear the word cancer. That strikes terror. This facility is just wonderful. They made me feel comfortable. listened, provided all the information regarding the procedure. My cancer is gone and now the healing begins. My suggestion is preparation is everything. Make sure you have all that you need for the first 24 to 48 hrs. Ask questions, write down your own questions. do exactly as prescribed and you will be great. Dr. Monte, his assistants, the front desk are consummate professionals. The waiting area is clean and inviting along with a coffee station. My word to everyone. WEAR YOUR SUNBLOCK. no tanning beds. and contact them if ever needed.
Sandy W.
Great first experience with Dr Lauren Szaraz. Plan on coming back for any of my dermatology needs.

Sandy W.

Sandy W.
Hi I just wanted to let you know that I have been treated very well and I will recommend
Sandy W.
I was able to get in very quickly, and the location was very close to where we are. The staff was friendly and professional. Debbie at the front desk was welcoming with a smile. The first one who called me back to the exam room(I’m sorry I didn’t catch her name) was super kind and professional with a great sense of humor. I saw Whitney and she was very knowledgeable , she offered to answer my questions and give reassurance during my visit. She had a comforting bedside manner. The visit was very quick, but it was to be expected in my particular case. I felt like she would have taken the time needed if I had more questions or concerns. Would like to be a repeat patient next time we are in the area.
Sandy W.
From making an appointment, to arriving at the medical office and meeting with the doctor, Anne Arundel Dermatology is excellent from beginning to end. Dr. Dawn is professional, and an excellent surgeon who shows great concern and care for her patients. I am so grateful to have her as my doctor.

Was scheduled to have a surgical excision of a mole today to be performed by Alison Berk. Alison was out today and my appointment was canceled. Stephanie called first thing this morning to reschedule. She then inquired if Dr Kushner could fit me in today. She spoke with Eve and they scheduled the procedure with Dr Kushner. Eve had excellent bedside manner and was very comforting. Dr Kushner was professional, pleasant, and explained everything in depth. Thank you very much for performing the procedure today!

I had such a wonderful experience with Dr. Sabini. She went out of her way to squeeze me in for an appointment, which I truly appreciated. From the moment I saw her, I felt comfortable and well cared for. She was gentle, knowledgeable, efficient, and made everything feel easy. I don’t normally see her at the Suwanee office, but after this visit I was so impressed. I also ran into a problem with a new credit card, and Sam Coad, the site manager, immediately stepped in and saved the day. Her kindness and helpfulness made an already great visit even better. Dr. Sabini and the Suwanee team made me feel genuinely cared for. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a warm, professional, and positive experience. Five stars!
Sandy W.
Hii I was the girl with the split dye pink and black hair.. My derm, Dr. Cheater is one of the best.. Unfortunately I don't go there anymore because I recently moved but I HAVE to deliver my experience for these ladies... One of the BEST doctors I personally feel like I can go to. Thoroughly explains everything I need and just a really overall great doctor. And the ladies at the front desk.. They had no issues making me feel so welcomed the first second I walked in the door. Extremely professional and super sweet I recommend and even fondly speak about this staff to my Piers and family. I just wanted to hop on here and personally thank everyone who I spoke to here because credit is definitely earned.
Sandy W.
Dr. Ismail is hands down the kindest and most compassionate doctors I’ve ever met. She was a real person and not just scribbling away and trying to get me out the door. I’m very grateful for a positive experience and hope other doctors are as kind as she is!
Sandy W.

This is a nice place to be treated. I had my second visit yesterday. This is a family setting. Derrick who is the support staff has been very helpful with making easy appts. that will fit your schedule. I was seen by Lina who took care of me .She was just great. My skin is looking good. She also know what medications are working for you. You will feel very much at home. This office is not crowded like most places. Everyone was pleasant and not cranky like some staff in doctor's offices. I would highly recommend this office. Plus the office is clean even the bathroom is clean. Plenty of parking at this location.
Sandy W.
Excellent care and friendly staff. Clean and comfortable office.
Sandy W.
great experience, staff and doctors were great. A little wait but nothing major, all good
Sandy W.
I highly recommend Dr. Ezeofor! I brought my 6 month old in for an appointment with her and overall it was a great experience. The medical assistant Paris was who I encountered first and she was extremely sweet and very attentive. She listened to all of my concerns and properly relayed the information to Dr. Ezeofor. When Dr. Ezeofor came in the room, she warmly greeted me and introduced herself. She has such a calming and welcoming presence that made me feel at ease. I've been discouraged and frustrated due to the lack of help I've previously received regarding my baby's condition and Dr. Ezeofor definitely helped to relieve some of what I was feeling. She's very knowledgeable, proactive, and is a great active listener! She thoroughly explained the answers to all of the questions I had, developed a great skin care plan, and recommended good options of all l baby safe skin care products I haven't heard of before. I left feeling more hopeful and confident that this regimen she provided will work! I only gave this location 4 stars because I do believe that the front desk staff could improve on greeting and interacting with patients upon check in. The person who checked us in just wasn't very welcoming and personable. Other than that, it was a great experience!
Sandy W.
Very professional and friendly team - exceptional experience here - very highly recommend!
Sandy W.
Dr Germanas is a very compassionate and excellent doctor. I was able to get an appointment quickly.

Sandy W.
Today’s visit was excellent. We waited less than 10 minutes in the lobby, and the front desk staff were, as always, very friendly and welcoming. Our appointment was with Dr. Matthew Zook for the scheduled removal of a cyst above our three-year-old son’s eye. Both Dr. Zook and his assistant were incredibly kind, patient, and attentive. As fairly anxious parents with a language barrier, we had many questions, and they took the time to answer every one of them without hesitation, making us feel comfortable and supported throughout the entire visit. The procedure itself was very quick. Our son only shed two tears — honestly, my husband and I were much more nervous than he was! After the procedure, we were given clear instructions for aftercare, a prescription for an ointment, and reassurance that everything had gone very well. We are now waiting for the biopsy results, which should be available in about 10 days. Thank you to Dr. Zook and his assistant for their professionalism, expertise, compassion, and excellent care. We truly appreciate the wonderful experience and highly recommend this practice. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Sandy W.
Devon is excellent with biopsies and skin surgeries. She is gentle and makes you feel comfortable. I trust her knowledge and skill completely and am so glad she is here in Southern Md. She also carries one of my favorite skincare lines, Obagi ZO which is a plus.

Had a great visit today. The ladies are wonderful here. Got my Tremfya sample in less than 24hrs because insurance is being cranky about filling it, so to hole me over I got a sample and some injections for my hair thinning. I drive over an hour to come here and would drive even more to have this as my care team!

I saw Dr Dhar today. I was pleasantly surprised. I was apprehensive about this visit, fearing they would be like the last dermatologist I went to. Dr Dhar is one of the best Dr's I've seen in awhile and I see many. Kind, awesome personality, friendly and knowledgeable. He was thorough in examining the issues I came to him for. He puts you at ease. Jackie, his assistant was awesome too. So sweet. I'm very happy to have found this practice.
Sandy W.
Lived in Florida for 40+ years, lots of sun damage, & have seen many dermatologists. This is by far the best practice I’ve found. Frank and the entire staff are professional, knowledgeable, friendly, understanding and kind. They respond quickly, explain everything, and listen to concerns. And they don’t rush you through your appointment!
Sandy W.
See Ashley Pierson! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Walking into a dermatologist’s office for a second opinion on a cancer diagnosis from another dermatologist, I was understandably nervous. From the moment I walked through the door, everyone—from the front office staff to Ashley Pierson, PA—was absolutely wonderful. Ashley was kind, compassionate, thorough, and made me feel comfortable during what was a very stressful visit. That kind of care means more than people realize. My daughter was with me for the appointment and was so impressed with Ashley that she made an appointment for herself before we left! Needless to say, you have gained two loyal patients. We will both be coming here for our dermatology care going forward. Thank you, Ashley, and the entire staff for treating us with such kindness and providing such a great experience. It was sincerely appreciated!
Sandy W.
El lugar super limpio, ordenado y ambiente agradable, el tiempo de espera es mínimo y la atención es excelente, la chica del front desk es muy amable, lo recomiendo .

This was my third visit with Dr. Ferrera. He was asking for any concerns and easily explained what seemed to be rather technical. He and his assistant were efficient and helpful. The receptionist was kind and friendly. Will be back for my yearly check if not before.
Sandy W.
Debbie McLanahan and her staff, from the receptionist to the nurses, are exceptional. My husband has Alzheimer's and everyone made him feel safe and comfortable. I will highly recommend Dermatology & Mohs Surgery Center Sellersville to my family and friends.

I've been going there for probably 10 years. I considered them the best. The wait is not long and nurses are great. Drs amazing. I see Dr Johnson and I like him. Give them a try.
Sandy W.
I can not say enough wonderful things about my experience today. It is never a comfortable feeling when you need your body checked over. From the moment I walked in I was greeted by professional staff. They made my new patient check-in effortless. Amy and her assistant could not have made me feel more comfortable. Amy was able to answer my hundred questions and gave me a thorough exam. She was able to address all my issues. And they made my procedure process pain-free. I felt at ease the whole time and that speaks volumes. I highly recommend this dermatologist office. I love also that even though cosmetic procedures could be done they did not push that on me at all. Even upon leaving the staff checking me out was professional and efficient. And the team members I saw that greeted me hello took the time to say goodbye and have a good day.
Sandy W.
Dr. Schram is the best. She is kind, understanding, and always makes me feel comfortable. All of the office staff are efficient and attentive. Easy scheduling, limited wait time, and painless prescription pickups.
Sandy W.

Sandy W.
Where to even start, Frankie PA-C saved my husbands life correctly diagnosing him with an extremely invasive and fast growing form of skin cancer after we were ignored by three other providers. The office is always friendly, clean, and punctual. Frankie is the most competent and knowledgeable dermatologist out there. I also get treated by him with Botox and chemical peels and is he is the best of the best with that as well, and I have tried at least 5 other establishments for Botox and chemical peels. When he starts offering fillers I will surely be doing mine with Frankie as well. Highly recommend Frankie!
Sandy W.

I’ve been going to this location for a few years and Dr. Beamguard is a rare find. Best dermatologist in St. Petersburg! She’s always friendly and answers all your questions. Heather, one of her assistants, is also nice and friendly. There is onsite parking and a lobby with a few chairs. The ladies at the front desk are not that friendly and can come off rude at times.

Your Scars & Lesions Questions, Answered
Some scars naturally fade over time, but most do not disappear completely without treatment. Early intervention typically leads to better outcomes, so if you're concerned about a scar, it's worth discussing your options with a dermatologist sooner rather than later.
A typical scar stays within the boundaries of the original wound and may flatten over time. A keloid extends beyond those boundaries and tends to be thick, raised, and firm. Keloids can continue to grow and are more common in people with certain skin types or genetic predispositions.
We strongly advise against it. Attempting to remove a cyst yourself can cause infection, permanent scarring, and damage to surrounding tissue. A dermatologist can evaluate the cyst and recommend the safest, most effective treatment option.
Not all lesions require removal. Your dermatologist will assess the lesion's size, appearance, growth pattern, and any associated symptoms to determine the best course of action. If there is any concern about a lesion changing in appearance, it should be evaluated promptly.
Keeping the wound clean and moist, protecting it from sun exposure, and following your provider's aftercare instructions are all important steps. If you are having a procedure with us, your dermatologist will give you specific guidance for your situation.
It depends on the type of scar and the treatment selected. Some patients see significant improvement after a single session; others benefit from a series of treatments over several months. Your dermatologist will give you a realistic timeline based on your skin and your goals.
Coverage varies depending on the procedure and whether it is considered medically necessary. Our team can help you understand your options and navigate the process.
