Let’s be honest, people pop pimples. The goal is to do it as safely as possible and know when not to touch it.

Not every pimple should be popped. Whiteheads that are superficial and already at the surface are very different from deep, painful cysts. Forcing a pimple too early can push bacteria deeper into the skin, leading to inflammation, infection, and scarring.

Eczema? These 3 simple things often trigger flare-ups more than you realize. Small daily habits can make a big difference in keeping skin calm, hydrated, and protected.

Skin cancer doesn’t just “happen overnight.” It’s the result of years—often decades—of sun exposure, and that’s exactly why age plays such a big role.

As we get older, our skin has had more time to accumulate damage from UV rays. That damage can show up later in life as skin cancer, even if you were careful in recent years. Thinner skin, a weaker immune response, and slower cell repair all increase risk as we age.

That’s why regular skin checks matter. Changes in spots, moles that look different, sores that don’t heal, or areas that bleed or itch shouldn’t be ignored. Early detection makes treatment simpler and outcomes better.

Dr. Heaton’s favorite part about being a dermatologist?

The art behind making the face look as close to scar-free as possible. Every stitch matters. Every angle matters. And every face is uniquely shaped which makes each procedure a new challenge.

Melanoma is sneaky — and that’s what makes it deadly.

It doesn’t just show up on spots that get a lot of sun. It can hide in places you’d never think to look:
• Between your toes
• Under your nails
• On your scalp
• Behind your ears
• Even in areas that rarely see sunlight at all

That’s why early detection saves lives. Regular skin checks, knowing what’s normal for you, and catching changes early is the key to beating melanoma before it becomes serious.

If something looks new, weird, or different… don’t ignore it.
Your skin is talking—pay attention.

Melanoma is the most dangerous form of skin cancer — but when caught early, it’s also one of the most treatable.

If you’ve noticed any new, changing, or unusual spots, always trust your instincts and schedule a professional skin exam.

Do you think that a dermatologist should tell people in public if he/she thinks they have skin cancer?🤔

Modern laser technology allows dermatologists to dramatically reduce the appearance of scars by targeting damaged tissue and stimulating new collagen production.

This video explains how laser treatments work to smooth, even out, and soften scar texture—whether from acne, surgery, or injury. You’ll learn how different wavelengths are used to resurface the skin, minimize redness, and promote healthy regeneration over time.

After a Mohs procedure, repairing the damaged area takes careful thought and planning. Every case is unique — especially in areas like the nose where both function and appearance matter. A surgeon must decide how to best close the wound, considering skin tension, natural contours, and how the area will heal over time.

In this video, we take a closer look at how surgical technique and follow-up treatments, like laser therapy, can help the skin recover with minimal scarring and natural-looking results.
