Skin & Vein Institute in Encinitas holds dual board certification in Dermatology and Micrographic Surgery & Dermatologic Oncology, combining Mohs procedures with venous disease treatment at a women-owned practice on North El Camino Real. An American Board of Venous & Lymphatic Medicine credential distinguishes the clinic from general dermatology practices by adding endovenous laser ablation and sclerotherapy to a cosmetic and surgical skin-care corridor that includes Coastal Pacific Dermatology. Training credentials trace from a UCLA Honors College biochemistry degree through the University of Vermont College of Medicine to a chief residency at Baylor University Medical Center and a post-residency Micrographic Dermatologic Surgery fellowship. Fellowship status in the American Society for Mohs Surgery and membership in the American Academy of Dermatology reflect ongoing subspecialty engagement in both oncologic and cosmetic dermatology. The vein-care arm uses duplex ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy and endovenous ablation to treat varicose and spider veins, an integrative vascular approach that dovetails with the complementary circulatory modalities at Chong Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine. Highest-complexity procedures include Mohs micrographic excision with same-day frozen-section tissue mapping and multilayer flap reconstruction for non-melanoma carcinomas on high-risk facial and cervical zones.
