Warts
Arthritis
Psoriatic Arthritis: In addition to inflamed, scaly skin, psoriatic arthritis causes pitted, discolored nails and swollen, painful joints that are typical of arthritis. It can also lead to inflammatory eye conditions such as conjunctivitis. Symptoms range from mild to severe. Although the disease usually isn’t as crippling as other forms of arthritis, it can cause stiffness and progressive joint damage that in the most serious cases may lead to permanent deformity.
Cryotherapy
An SK lesion is generally harmless, but if it becomes unsightly, itchy, or irritated from rubbing against clothing, you may choose to have it removed.Removal methods include cryotherapy, shave biopsy, laser surgery, curettage, and cautery. Regardless of the technique used, however, the results are permanent — after removal, new growth will not reform in its place. The skin may appear a bit lighter temporarily, but should gradually return to its natural tone.
Medical Weight Loss
Pustular Psoriasis: This rare form of psoriasis can occur in widespread patches (generalized pustular psoriasis) or in smaller areas on your hands, feet, or fingertips. It generally develops quickly, with pus-filled blisters appearing just hours after your skin becomes red and tender. The blisters dry within a day or two but may reappear every few days or weeks. Generalized pustular psoriasis can also cause fever, chills, severe itching, weight loss, and fatigue.
Rheumatology
Scleroderma is a rare autoimmune disorder that causes abnormal growth of skin and other connective tissue. The term, derived from Greek, means “hard skin” and refers to the thickening and tightening of the skin and inflammation and scarring of other organs, including the heart, liver, and kidneys.Scleroderma is relatively rare. According to the American College of Rheumatology, there are about 75,000 to 100,000 people in the U.S. who have this disease, mostly women between the ages of 30 and 50.
Primary Care
We provide courtesy billing to your primary and secondary insurance carriers. Insurance coverage for dermatology services varies depending on your insurance. Please check with your individual insurance carrier for coverage information. Additionally, some plans require a referral from your primary care physician, so it is always a good idea to contact your insurance company for their specific requirements before your visit.

Ophthalmologists

Glaucoma
Sturge-Weber Foundation: This foundation seeks to improve the quality of life for those with Port Wine Stains, Sturge-Weber Syndrome, and Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome. These conditions are commonly characterized by facial birthmarks, seizures, and glaucoma.

Pregnancy

Chemotherapy
Anagen effluvium is when you lose hair during the anagen or growth stage of the hair cycle. Some of the main causes are infection, toxins, or chemotherapy.
Radiation Therapy
Skin cancer treatment options may include procedures such as excision, curettage, and electrodessication, Mohs Surgery, surgical excision, laser surgery, cryosurgery, radiation therapy, and topical chemotherapy. The more likely a skin cancer is to spread or recur, the more aggressive the treatment will be.

Mohs Surgery
Mohs Micrographic Surgery is a specialized procedure that removes skin cancers at the microscopic level. Mohs Surgery allows surgeons to examine and remove skin tissue using an intricate level of precision and control. During Mohs Surgery, cancerous tissue is removed and microscopically examined to be sure all the “roots” and extensions are eliminated while keeping as much healthy tissue intact as possible.Working at the microscopic level also results in minimal scarring, so Mohs Micrographic Surgery is also ideal for skin cancers on highly visible areas, such as the head and neck.

Plastic Surgeons

Botox
Lines and deep wrinkles in the face are caused by contractions of the delicate underlying facial muscles that happen when you smile, laugh, or frown. BOTOX Cosmetic, a purified protein derivative, can effectively minimize, prevent, and reverse many of the lines between your eyebrows, across your forehead, and around your eyes.
Plastic Surgery
The process continues until there is no longer any evidence of skin cancer remaining. At this point, the surgeon will reconstruct the area using plastic surgery techniques such as complex closures, flaps, and/or grafts.
Moles
“Very welcoming staff with appropriate precautions in place. I didn’t know what to expect but the mole removal was quick and painless.” -Actual Patient

Cosmetic Dermatology

Skin Cancer

Dermatology
The terms, conditions, policies and notices contained in this document (these “Terms”) apply to the website operated by United Derm Partners (“UDP”) [on behalf of Alaska Center for Dermatology], including without limitation all services, content, features and functionality available through it (the “Site”). Any reference to “we”, “us”, or “our” in these Terms shall refer to UDP. Please read these Terms carefully before using the Site.
Acne Treatment
There are various factors that influence the type of acne treatment that is suitable for each individual, including the type of acne and the severity of your particular case. The right acne treatment can heal existing lesions, stop new lesions from forming, and prevent scarring. Treatments include a wide range of solutions like over-the-counter prescription topical agents, antibiotics, Accutane, or hormonal agents such as birth control. Lasers and cosmetic procedures can also be used in the treatment of acne, or in conjunction with traditional treatments.
Cyst
Eczema
Eczema and dermatitis are used interchangeably to describe several varieties of inflamed, irritated skin. Acute dermatitis usually appears as a red rash that may be blistered or swollen. When dermatitis becomes chronic, the skin may become thickened, rough, and darker than the surrounding skin due to prolonged scratching.
Fungus
Tinea pedis, is a contagious fungus that thrives in warm and moist areas such as locker room floors, showers, or swimming pools. It gets its informal name because it occurs frequently when feet are sweaty feet in tight-fitting shoes, such as athletes’ feet. Once infected, the fungus typically begins spreading from between the toes.
Lesions
Seborrheic keratoses are skin growths that appear in adulthood, and although they may be large and grow quickly, they are benign. SKs initially appear as slightly raised, light brown spots and evolve into darker, thicker lesions with rough, warty surfaces.These types of growths are distinct, and doctors can often diagnose them by visual examination alone. Although there may be a link between levels of sun exposure and SK lesions, they’re most commonly tied to aging and genetics. Which is why you can find them anywhere on the body — even areas usually covered by clothing.
Chemical Peels
Because AKs are precancerous lesions and can progress to squamous cell carcinoma they should be treated by a Medical Provider. Treatment options include cryosurgery (freezing of the lesions), shave removal, scraping, laser surgery, chemical peels, BLU-U® Blue Light treatment, and photodynamic therapy (PDT). There are also several medications available for the treatment of AKs, and regimens may vary depending on the kind of medication prescribed.Your plan of care will be tailored to your unique situation, including age, the number and size of lesions, the success of any previous treatments, and personal preference. You can receive treatment for AKs at our Alaska Center for Dermatology location in Anchorage. Book an appointment to discuss treating your AK with an Alaska Center for Dermatology Board-Certified Dermatologist or Physician Assistant today.
Skin Care
We all know the importance of having a skin care routine, and taking good care of our hair and nails. Most of us have a daily routine that we have created over the years. We do our own research as we grow older to ensure our bodies are getting the nutrients needed to stay healthy. Everything from making sure that we protect our skin from the harmful UV rays of the sun, to keeping our skin moisturized and our hair nourished.
Microdermabrasion
Psoriasis
Psoriasis patches can range from a few spots of dandruff-like scaling to major eruptions that cover large areas. Mild cases of psoriasis may be a nuisance, but more severe cases can be painful, disfiguring, and disabling. Most types of psoriasis go through cycles, flaring for a few weeks or months, then subsiding for a time or even going into complete remission. In most cases, however, the disease eventually returns.
