Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States, but it’s also one of the most preventable and treatable when caught early. At Peachtree City Dermatology, we make skin cancer prevention and early detection a cornerstone of our practice, serving patients from Carrollton, Newnan, and Peachtree City with comprehensive screening and treatment services.
Our approach to skin cancer care begins with education. Many patients don’t realize that skin cancer can affect people of all ages and skin types. Through community outreach and individual counseling, we teach sun-safe behaviors and the importance of regular self-exams. Simple precautions like using broad-spectrum sunscreen, seeking shade during peak hours, and wearing protective clothing can significantly reduce your risk.
For early detection, we recommend annual full-body skin exams for most adults, with more frequent screenings for those at higher risk. Our dermatologists are experts in identifying suspicious lesions, using advanced diagnostic tools like dermatoscopy to detect abnormalities that might be missed by the untrained eye. With fellowship training from prestigious institutions like Northwestern and the University of Pennsylvania, our providers have the specialized skills needed to recognize even the most subtle warning signs.
When treatment is necessary, we offer the most advanced options available. For melanoma and other skin cancers, this may include:
- Mohs micrographic surgery for precise tumor removal
- Excisional surgery with optimal cosmetic results
- Non-surgical treatments for precancerous lesions
- Personalized follow-up care plans
Our same-day appointment availability means we can evaluate concerning spots quickly, reducing patient anxiety and improving outcomes. The peace of mind that comes from prompt expert evaluation is invaluable.
Beyond medical treatment, we emphasize compassionate care throughout the skin cancer journey. A cancer diagnosis can be frightening, and we take the time to explain findings clearly, answer all questions, and involve patients in every decision. Our 1,000+ five-star reviews reflect this patient-centered approach to what can be a stressful experience.
As a 100% physician-owned practice, we’ve invested in the latest skin cancer detection and treatment technologies without corporate constraints. This independence allows us to focus solely on what’s best for each patient’s health and peace of mind.
Your skin is your body’s largest organ and first line of defense. Trust it to the experts at Peachtree City Dermatology for prevention, early detection, and expert treatment of skin cancer. Your healthy skin is our highest priority.
