DermSurgery Associates

What DermSurgery Associates does

DermSurgery Associates, PA is a physician-owned dermatology group practice founded in 1997 and headquartered in Houston, Texas. The firm operates a multi-modality model that combines medical dermatology (eczema, psoriasis, acne, rosacea, actinic keratosis, skin cancer screening), Mohs micrographic surgery and other surgical procedures (blepharoplasty, biopsies), pediatric dermatology, and a broad cosmetic offering spanning injectables (BOTOX, DAXXIFY, JUVÉDERM, KYBELLA), lasers and light-based devices (Fraxel, PicoSure, Clear + Brilliant, AviClear, Thermage, VBeam Perfecta, Excel V, Cutera LimeLight, IPL), body contouring (CoolSculpting), and facial treatments (chemical peels, HydraFacial, microdermabrasion, SkinPen microneedling), plus hair restoration.

The practice is delivered through 12+ physical clinic locations across the Greater Houston metropolitan area, including a dedicated Mohs Surgical Unit, a Methodist Hospital Surgery Center presence in the Texas Medical Center, and offices in Sugar Land, Katy, Pearland, The Woodlands, Kingwood, Brenham, El Campo, and Willowbrook. A virtual consultation channel is offered to established patients. Clinical staff comprises 15+ board-certified and fellowship-trained dermatologists, Mohs surgeons, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and aestheticians, supported by an in-house Modernizing Medicine EMR/practice-management platform and a third-party payment processor (ValorPayTech).

Revenue is generated entirely through fee-for-service professional services across four patient segments: medical dermatology, skin cancer surgery, cosmetic enhancement, and pediatric dermatology. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; financing is available through third-party providers. The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer with supplemental physician referrals, supported by an organic digital presence (200+ blog posts, before-and-after gallery, online scheduling) rather than paid acquisition or institutional partnerships.
