Cosmetic Dermatology
“I am thrilled to be joining Benson Dermatology in Covington as a general dermatologist. My areas of interest include melanoma, high risk skin cancer, cosmetic dermatology, and surgical dermatology.”
Skin Cancer
It is hard to believe that a dark growth as small as a pencil eraser can be fatal, but the reality is that melanoma is one of the most lethal forms of cancer, especially among young adults.
Dermatology
Benson Dermatology's physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants treat patients of all ages with a full range of treatments for common to rare skin ailments. The mission of each provider with our dedicated support staff of Benson Dermatology is to provide an optimal patient experience with effective treatments in a comfortable office environment.
Acne Treatment
These technological and advanced treatments do not substitute for topical vitamin A creams, topical and systemic antibiotics, and internal vitamin A derivatives, which have the ability to clear and control a great majority of cases. But for those patients who suffer side effects, have very sensitive skin, or whose lifestyles or preferences favor non-medical solutions, there are now sensible alternatives which can help. To schedule your appointment for acne treatment, contact us.
Cyst
Lesions
Early detection is the key to the cure, and a trained board certified dermatologist is the recognized expert for this vital detection. Through a quick and simple spot check, we can quickly pick out any suspicious moles and spots. Our board certified dermatologists and highly-qualified board certified nurse practitioners and physician assistants make every effort to not only inspect the skin for suspicious lesions but also quickly test any "off-colored" growths with the simple removal of the spot.
Rashes
Skin Care
For those seeking skin care in Hammond, LA, a local dermatologist can be a literal and metaphorical lifesaver. A dermatologist is a type of doctor who specializes in issues relating to the skin, nails, and hair of their patients.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion and dermalinfusion such as Diamond Glow abrade the outer layers of skin to unroof clogged pores and stimulate the removal of whiteheads and blackheads. Additionally, Diamond Glow infuses acne-specific serum into the skin. Laser Genesis treatments target the redness and pigmentation which often persist after flares of acne. And of late, dietary phytochemicals derived from certain vegetables have shown promise and efficacy by tweaking estrogen metabolism.
Psoriasis
We treat it all—from the distressing alopecia areata to ringworm of the scalp, from bothersome dandruff to severe psoriasis, from hereditary male baldness to thinning hair of middle-aged women.

Ingrown Toenails
Common fungal diseases are treatable with topical or oral medications, whereas painful ingrown toenails are immediately and permanently treated in our office.
