Clear the Canvas: Your Personalized Derm Clean Up at Smart Skin Dermatology
At Smart Skin Dermatology, we understand the desire to have clear, flawless skin. That's why we offer the "Derm Clean Up," a special treatment designed to address the most common skin lesions that insurance often doesn't cover.
What is a Derm Clean Up?
Our signature Derm Clean Up is a comprehensive appointment designed to banish unwanted skin lesions, leaving you with a clearer, smoother complexion. During this targeted session, our expert removes common benign growths like seborrheic keratoses, milia, sebaceous hyperplasia, dermatosis papulosa nigra, and skin tags. Say goodbye to bumps, imperfections, and uneven texture for a refreshed, rejuvenated look.
The Smart Skin Difference
At Smart Skin Dermatology, we believe in treating the whole you, not just your skin. Our Derm Clean Up offers a unique blend of expertise and convenience:
Mohs Surgery is Hard, Skin Tags Stand No Chance
Our Moh’s surgeon and fellowship trained cosmetic dermatologist meticulously trains our cosmetic providers over thousands of hours. We feel comfortable with saying you are in good hands for your clean up.
Medical Diagnosis Required
Our clean up visit requires a referral from a dermatologist. This way you can have peace of mind knowing we are only removing benign lesions. We value the power of regular skin exams.
Comprehensive Technologies
We have access to a full range of treatment options. We have solutions to all needs and won’t be subject to recommending something just because that’s what we have like most practices.
Dermatologists are Skin Specialists
We know everything there is to know about skin. This allows us to go beyond what can be achieved at a spa or plastic surgeon’s office to give you the best recommendations for your goals.
Patients for Life Transparency
We want patients for life, not for one round of treatment. This means we won’t sell you on hopes and dreams. Seeking out cosmetic intervention is hard enough without the car salesman approach. We promise to provide options to meet you where you are at and retain you for life.

Cut through the marketing noise:
- Does medical insurance stink? We think so, and that's why we created this flat cost treatment to help address your concerns. Will these spots kill you? No, but that doesn’t mean removal isn’t an option or isn’t important.
- Is a Derm Clean Up right for me? Yes, if you have bothersome benign skin lesions like seborrheic keratoses or skin tags, that insurance won't cover.
- Does it hurt? We minimize discomfort with topical numbing, and the procedure is generally well-tolerated.
- How long does it take? The appointment itself typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the number of lesions.
- Will the lesions come back? While recurrence is possible, most lesions are gone for good. However, this appointment addresses the “barnacles of life”, so you will most likely “grow” different new barnacles with time.
Treatment Areas
Face
Eliminate bumps, uneven texture, and imperfections for a polished complexion.
Neck & Décolletage
Refine crepey texture and remove bothersome lesions for a smoother neckline.
Body
Address bumps and growths on areas like the back, arms, and legs for a confident, clear appearance.
Common Treatment Targets
Seborrheic Keratoses
Remove rough, wart-like bumps that commonly appear with age. We use electrocautery and occasionally curettage for this.
Milia
Eliminate tiny white bumps caused by trapped keratin. We use extractions for this.
Sebaceous Hyperplasia
Address enlarged oil glands that appear as small, waxy bumps. We use a special type of electrocautery for this.
Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra
Reduce raised, dark bumps on the face, typically around the eyes and cheeks. We use electrocautery and occasionally curettage for this.
Acrochordons “skin tags”
Eradicate tiny, skin-colored stalks or "skin tags" that often appear on the neck and eyelids. We use sterile removal techniques for this.
Post-Treatment Care
Sun protection
SPF 30+ sunscreen is essential after your treatment to protect your skin.
Gentle cleansing & moisturizing
Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer suitable for your skin type.
Avoid picking
Resist the urge to pick at treated areas, as this can lead to scarring.
Follow-up appointments
Schedule regular Derm Clean Ups to maintain smooth, clear skin.

None to mention. Like we said, this is one of our signature treatments out there. It's nothing special. All dermatologists have these tools and treatment techniques, but no one else addresses the need for this type of service. All patients have spots they want removed but insurance won't cover. We can help.
Possible Side Effects:
- Redness
- Mild discomfort
- Temporary scabbing (rare)
