LA Dermatology

What LA Dermatology does

LA Dermatology (Louisiana Dermatology Associates) is a multi-location dermatology practice founded in 1999 and operating across the Greater Baton Rouge, Louisiana market. The practice delivers medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology services through five clinic locations staffed by four board-certified dermatologists, three physician assistants/acute care nurse practitioners, and four aestheticians/laser technicians. Service lines span general medical dermatology, Mohs and other surgical procedures, and self-pay cosmetic/aesthetic treatments supported by advanced laser and energy-based devices deployed across the network.

The business operates a diversified revenue model that combines insurance-reimbursed medical and surgical dermatology with self-pay cosmetic services. Payer-side, the practice maintains in-network status with Ochsner Health Network, and patient-side it offers third-party financing through Cherry and CareCredit to support higher-ticket cosmetic purchases. A direct-to-consumer e-commerce channel branded Shop MyDermSpot supplements in-clinic revenue with skincare product sales. Customer base is long-tail and consumer-facing, with no disclosed enterprise or payer concentration.

LA Dermatology is owned by PhyNet Dermatology LLC, a dermatology-focused management and services platform. The practice's strategic positioning rests on a distributed five-location physical footprint across the Baton Rouge metro, payer relationships, and consumer-facing retail and cosmetic revenue streams that diversify away from pure fee-for-service medical dermatology.
