Skin texture isn’t random, it usually forms because of things happening beneath the surface:

✔️ Clogged pores can create bumps and roughness
✔️ Past acne may leave shallow scars or uneven patches
✔️ Sun damage thickens the skin and disrupts tone
✔️ Collagen loss makes the skin less smooth over time

The good news? Texture can be dramatically improved with the right treatments.

At Houston Dermatology Specialists, our board-certified dermatologists use:
✨ SkinPen® Microneedling: boosts collagen, refines uneven texture
✨ CO2RE® Laser Resurfacing: smooths scars, lines, and deeper irregularities
✨ LUCENT IPL: improves tone and clarity for a more even finish

If your skin is feeling rough, bumpy, or uneven, we can help you restore a smoother, more confident complexion with a personalized plan.

Mohs Micrographic Surgery is one of the most precise and effective treatments for certain types of skin cancer.

This specialized technique removes cancerous skin layer by layer, examining each layer under a microscope in real time. By doing so, Mohs surgery:
✔️ Preserves as much healthy skin as possible
✔️ Offers the highest cure rates for many skin cancers
✔️ Is especially effective for cancers on the face, ears, nose, and hands
✔️ Allows for immediate confirmation that cancer has been fully removed

At Houston Dermatology Specialists, Mohs surgery is performed by fellowship-trained, double board-certified dermatologist Christopher Downing, M.D., FAAD, ensuring both medical precision and thoughtful cosmetic outcomes.

When it comes to skin cancer treatment, experience and expertise matter.

Winter weather doesn’t just feel harsh, it actively strips your skin of moisture and weakens the skin barrier.

Cold temperatures, low humidity, and indoor heating can lead to:
✔️ Dryness and flaking
✔️ Tight, uncomfortable skin
✔️ Increased sensitivity
✔️ Worsening of eczema or irritation

One of the most important winter habits? Barrier protection.
Using the right cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen daily helps lock in hydration and defend your skin against seasonal stress.

At Houston Dermatology Specialists, our board-certified dermatologists help patients adjust their routines for colder months, recommending medical-grade products and treatments that keep skin healthy, calm, and resilient all winter long.

Exfoliating your skin is essential for a radiant complexion, but it’s important to know the right frequency. For most skin types, 2-3 times a week is ideal. Over-exfoliating can irritate and damage your skin, leading to dryness and sensitivity. 🌿

Exfoliation helps to remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and boost circulation, but remember, your skin needs time to regenerate! If you have sensitive skin, you might want to exfoliate once a week, while oilier skin types can typically handle more frequent exfoliation.

At Houston Dermatology Specialists, we can recommend the best exfoliation treatments suited to your skin needs and help you create a balanced skincare routine.
