"Staff was polite. I had my appointment time written down incorrectly and Dr. still saw me. I’m a new patient and was very impressed with the time and care that was given. She’s answered all of my questions and gave me options as well. I go back in a month for a follow up. Check out was easy and they even have a candy bowl when you leave." says Tanya on Google

Have you noticed a mole with a white ring around it? This could be a halo nevus 🌿
A halo nevus is a benign mole surrounded by a lighter-colored “halo” of skin. This happens because your immune system is naturally reacting to the pigment in the mole.
✨ What you should know:
Halo nevi are usually harmless.
They can appear anywhere on the body and are most common in children and young adults.
Over time, the mole may fade on its own, and the white halo may remain.
🔹 When to check with a dermatologist:
If the mole changes in shape, color, or size
If there are multiple new moles appearing suddenly
Anytime you’re unsure—peace of mind is always worth it
Halo nevi are a fascinating example of your body’s natural immune response at work! 💙

Noticing small bumps on your child’s skin? One classic culprit is molluscum contagiosum 🌿
Molluscum often shows up as flesh-colored bumps with a tiny central dimple or indentation—sometimes called a “central dell.” They’re usually painless, small, and can appear in clusters on the arms, torso, or face.
✨ Why it matters:
Molluscum is common in children and usually harmless.
It’s caused by a viral infection of the skin.
The bumps can last several months but often resolve on their own.
🔹 Treatment options exist if needed, including gentle removal or topical therapy, especially if the bumps are spreading, itchy, or causing concern.
If your child develops bumps like these, a dermatologist can confirm the diagnosis and guide care. Healthy skin starts with the right evaluation 💙

Birthmarks are common and usually harmless, but it’s important to know what’s normal. ✨

Steps to improve:

Monitor your birthmark for changes in color, size, or texture.
Use gentle skincare if the area is sensitive.

What to watch for:

Rapid growth, irregular borders, color changes, or bleeding.

Ask your dermatologist:

Does my child’s birthmark require treatment?
Are there any risks of skin problems later in life?
Dr. Likhari can evaluate and guide you with expert care.

"Wonderful experience from the first phone call to leaving at the end of my appointment.
She addressed an issue most doctors will not address on appointment days. Most will make you come back in order to get that second office visit fee. She did not.
I appreciated her and her staff was amazing!
If you want an individual dermatologist go to Sweetwater Dermatology! I highly recommend over the dermatology groups!" says Monica on Google

Nail Disease

Your nails can reveal more than just your manicure—they can indicate underlying health issues. 💅

Steps to improve:

Keep nails clean and dry.
Avoid harsh chemicals or trauma.
Follow treatment for fungal infections or psoriasis-related nail changes.

What to watch for:

Discoloration, thickening, or separation from the nail bed.
Pain, bleeding, or sudden changes in multiple nails.
Ask your dermatologist:
What type of nail condition is this?
Are systemic treatments needed?
Could this indicate another health issue?
Dr. Likhari provides comprehensive nail care and guidance.

Hives that come and go for weeks or months?
This may be chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) 🌿
CSU is a condition where itchy, red, raised welts appear without a clear trigger and last for 6 weeks or longer. The hives can move around the body, flare suddenly, and fade within hours only to return again.
✨ The good news: CSU is very treatable.
🔹 Antihistamines are the first-line treatment. Many patients need higher or daily dosing to control symptoms safely under medical guidance.
🔹 If antihistamines aren’t enough, biologic therapy (such as injectable medications that target the immune pathway causing hives) can dramatically reduce or even eliminate symptoms for many patients.
🔹 Identifying and managing triggers like stress, infections, or heat can also help, even when hives seem “random.”
If chronic hives are disrupting your sleep, comfort, or quality of life, you don’t have to just live with it. A personalized treatment plan can make a real difference.
Healthy skin is possible—even with chronic hives 💙
