Thinking ahead to your 2026 glow? Now is the perfect time to start building a personalized Cosmetic Dermatology plan tailored to your goals, your budget, and your lifestyle. Patients across the Reno-Tahoe area are already mapping out their next steps for brighter, smoother, and more rejuvenated skin in the year ahead.

Start by identifying what you want to focus on – whether it’s softening fine lines, restoring lost volume, improving skin texture, or simply refreshing your overall appearance. A solid plan helps you stay consistent and see long-term results.

Many treatments work best when scheduled strategically throughout the year. Add reminders to your calendar for seasonal touch-ups:
• Spring: Pre-summer refresh, including skin resurfacing or injectables
• Summer: Lighter treatments and skin maintenance
• Fall: Correction season for sun damage, pigmentation, or texture
• Winter: Ideal for lasers, peels, and deeper rejuvenation

A well-rounded routine combines at-home skin care with professional treatments. From anti-aging injectables and collagen-stimulating procedures to hydrating facials, chemical peels, and advanced laser options, our comprehensive Cosmetic Dermatology services make it easy to maintain glowing skin all year long.

Visit SkinCancerDerm.com to schedule your appointments and start your customized 2026 Cosmetic Dermatology plan today. Your year of glow begins here.

We’re excited to share that Dr. Whitney Hovenic from Skin Cancer & Dermatology Institute was recently featured in CNN, where she explained why urea is such an effective ingredient for combating dryness, especially in Reno’s high-desert climate.

In the article, Dr. Hovenic highlights how urea supports hydration and barrier repair, noting, “Urea is a naturally occurring component in the skin that plays an important role in maintaining hydration and skin barrier function.”

With benefits ranging from deep moisture to gentle exfoliation, urea-based products can be especially helpful for those with sensitive, mature, or very dry skin.

💧 In the Spotlight: Dr. Whitney Hovenic in Allure! 💧

When it comes to achieving a hydrated, radiant glow, face oils are a game-changer – and Allure recently featured Dr. Whitney Hovenic, Double Board-Certified Dermatologist & Mohs Surgeon, at Skin Cancer & Dermatology Institute – Reno Lakeside Crossing, in “8 Best Face Oils for Lasting Hydration.”

Dr. Hovenic shares:
“A face oil primarily helps seal in hydration and reinforce your skin’s natural moisture barrier.”

She also highlights her personal favorite from the feature:
“I love this oil because it’s lightweight yet incredibly nourishing. It strengthens and hydrates the skin while giving that dewy, healthy look.”

Face oils are more than just a beauty trend – they help lock in moisture, support the skin barrier, and protect against dryness, flakiness, and environmental stressors. Dr. Hovenic explains that ingredients like jojoba, squalane, and rosehip oil mimic the skin’s natural oils, making them ideal for all skin types and helping maintain balance without clogging pores.
