In Carrollton,TX, our board-certified medical physicians offer quality dermatology care at our general practice, Family Medicine Associates of Texas.
One of the most common conditions we treat is adolescent and adult acne. There are many different types of skin conditions and diseases that can cause blemishes, discoloration, or bumps on the skin. These conditions can cause symptoms like itching, redness, dryness, rough skin texture, or oily skin. Visible imperfections can cause embarrassment and prevent individuals from feeling confident.
Minor Skin Surgery & Biopsies
Minor skin surgery is a procedure that surgically removes moles, suspicious skin marks, warts, skin tags, and cysts from the skin. The reasons for this surgery can be aesthetic or medical.
Skin biopsies can be performed to test a mole or piece of skin for potentially harmful diseases such as skin cancer. During a skin biopsy, a piece of skin is surgically removed with a scalpel or sharp medical instrument. The sample is then sent to our lab for testing. Once the biopsy results are back, our clinical team follows up with results and to discuss next steps in treatment when necessary.
Skin Cancer Screenings
Skin cancer screening are physical inspections of the skin by a medical professional. A private full body exam is performed, but the exam can also focus solely on a specific area of concern. After the examination, your provider may have recommendations or order further diagnostic testing such as a skin biopsy or bloodwork.

Rash and Skin Problems
Various rashes and skin issues cause inflammation, which may result in redness, discoloration, or scaly blemishes on the surface of the skin. These symptoms can cause rough skin texture, itchiness, or dryness. If not treated, rashes can potentially lead to infection.
Common rashes include, eczema, poison ivy, granuloma annulare, lichen planus, and pityriasis rosea. Typically, these conditions are treated with a topical ointment or antibiotic.

Acne and Rosacea
Rosacea is a common type of acne-like skin condition that causes pink or red hyperpigmentation to the skin. Typically, rosacea occurs in adults after age 30 and is usually isolated to the face.
Acne is an infection of the skin and causes pimples, blackheads, red bumps, and oily skin. Both acne and rosacea can come and go, or flare up during a specific season or stressful time.
Our providers will help you identify the right treatment protocol to address your specific skin condition.
