Dr. Vishakha V. Gigler, MD in Encinitas is double board certified in Dermatology and Micrographic Dermatologic Surgery, co-founding Comprehensive Dermatology Group on Garden View Court. Her Mohs micrographic surgery program treats basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas alongside a full medical and cosmetic scope that parallels the clinical aesthetics work at Coastal Pacific Dermatology in the broader Encinitas corridor. A 2000 UCSD School of Medicine graduate who completed residency at the University of California, Irvine in 2004, she served as president of the San Diego Society for Dermatologic Surgery and founded the San Diego Esthetician Society. Her fellowship credentials span the American Academy of Dermatology and the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery. Complex Mohs cases requiring post-excision tissue reconstruction on the nose, ears, and periorbital region draw on the same New Encinitas surgical corridor that includes Dermacare Encinitas at Schoemann Plastic Surgery for multilayer flap procedures. Highest-tier services include staged Mohs excisions with frozen-section histopathology and same-day margin verification for tissue-sparing closure on cosmetically sensitive facial sites.
