Pure Skin Dermatology & Aesthetics Reviews
I started seeing Dr. Grayman in March for my hair and alopecia. In the last several months my skin has cleared and my hair is filling in. I'm very happy with the care I've received and her staff is great never once have I felt rushed. She is a direct communicator which I love. I specially sought out an African America dermatologist and she is more than worth the wait. I have had to wait in office once or twice but I wait anytime I go to the Dr. It happens. Patience and kindness goes a long way.
I saw 3 Dermatologist before Dr. Grayman. She was the only Doctor to properly diagnose my condition and resolve it. I have not had an outbreak in more than 3 years!! Very professional and informative đź‘Ź đź‘Ś
For the first time after several visits this has been the first time a dermatologist has actually touched me and looked at every area I had concerns about while others only looked and quickly came to the conclusion that I had server dry skin.
Dr Grayman was awesome and started treatment right away. I’m excited for this journey.
Posted 11/07/25I waited until my last treatment before writing this review, just to be sure the results hold up. I’d been dealing with a hyperpigmentation area for over 3 years and I tried everything—(OTC products, prescriptions) and seen a few dermatologist. Nothing worked.Frustrated - one day while searching online, I came across Dr. Grayman and PureSkin Dermatology. This time, I specifically wanted to see a dermatologist familiar with my skin type and culture because, after several failed attempts with others, I figured maybe someone who truly understands skin like mine could actually help.At first, I was hesitant (as anyone would be), but I decided to schedule a consultation. After accessing my skin issue, Dr. Grayman immediately knew what kind of treatment would work best. I even said to her “If you’re absolutely confident about this treatment, I’ll move forward with you,” and she said without hesitation, “Yes, I am confident.” At that moment, I felt optimistic that I'm in good hands.Fast forward through 4 treatments—and wow! I’m super satisfied with the results. My skin in the problem area looked so much better. Dr. Grayman and her team have been nothing but professional, kind, and attentive before, during, and after every session. The ladies at the front desk are absolute sweethearts—super warm and welcoming, but still professional. The nurse assistants are just as great—very patient, friendly, professional and detail-oriented.Honestly, I have nothing negative to say about Dr. Grayman and her team. I 100% recommend PureSkin Dermatology if you’re looking for results and a staff that's professional, attentive and friendly. Hopefully I won’t need more treatments anytime soon, but if I ever do, this will always be my go-to spot. Hands down.Thank you to everyone at PureSkin! Sorry to readers for the long post, but I assure you this isn’t an insider review—just a grateful patient.

Surgical Dermatology FAQ
What kind of anesthetic do you use for skin surgery?
We typically use local anesthesia for in-office skin surgeries. This numbs the treatment area so you stay comfortable and pain-free throughout the procedure, while still being awake and able to go home shortly afterward. For more complex cases, we'll discuss additional options to ensure your comfort and safety.
How long does a typical surgery take?
Most surgical dermatology procedures are relatively quick and can be completed in under an hour. The exact timing depends on the size, type, and location of the growth being removed. Our team will walk you through what to expect before your procedure, so there are no surprises.
Will I have any scars after surgical dermatology?
Some scarring is possible any time the skin is cut, but we use advanced techniques to keep scarring as minimal and discreet as possible. Your healing process, skin type, and how you care for the area afterward also play a role. We'll provide clear aftercare instructions to help your skin heal smoothly.
