Trust Your Skin Care Health to Our Chesapeake Dermatology Team

Our board-certified dermatologist in Chesapeake – Stephan Duran, MD, MS, FAAD – has years of training, education, and experience.

Our specialties include skin cancer, acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and more, in addition to injectable cosmetic services.

When was your last annual skin check? According to the American Academy of Dermatology, everyone should have a full-body skin cancer exam once a year. Have you noticed any changes in your skin’s appearance, such as redness, itching, dry patches, or pigment changes? These all call for a visit to your Chesapeake dermatologist, especially if over-the-counter creams, lotions, or ointments aren’t working. Your skin health is a vital part of your overall health.

A Skin Cancer Screening Is Your First Line of Defense

Our experienced Chesapeake dermatologist will thoroughly examine your skin, including any cancerous or pre-cancerous skin patches, to detect melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer. If you receive a skin cancer diagnosis, our immediate next step is developing a custom treatment plan just for you.

While no one ever wants to hear the words, “You have cancer,” you are in excellent hands with Forefront Dermatology. We perform many in-office skin cancer treatments, including standard excision, cryotherapy, scraping and burning, and photodynamic therapy (PDT). We also provide Mohs surgery at our neighboring Virginia Beach office, a treatment known for both its precision and incredibly high success rate (up to 99%).
