Sun Damaged Skin

When you spend time in the sun, it takes a toll on your skin. In fact, sun exposure is the main cause of dark spots, wrinkles and other signs of aging. It also reduces collagen in the skin, leading to sagging and thinning. Worst of all, sun damage puts you at a much higher risk for skin cancer.

When your skin is damaged by the sun, it will become darker than normal. In addition, you may develop actinic keratoses, or precancerous growths. Your skin may bruise more easily and take longer to heal due to collagen reduction.

If your skin is showing signs of sun damage, it is time to make an appointment with Kessel Dermatology.

First time using Kessel Dermatology the other day, and I can not say enough good things about the practice. From the ease of getting an appointment, to the polite and professional office staff and the very gentle and professional Dr. Freedman...I would use them again in a heartbeat!

I saw both Jennifer and Savy. They were very professional but warm, made me feel very comfortable. I knew I was in good hands!

Savy is the best, she is treating both of us when needed for the last five years. Very Very Friendly and Very Very Caring. On top of that my wife feels at home when we visit because she can speak with Savy in Greek. Best wishes, George and Vassiliki.

"My wife and I have been seeing Elena Applebaum here for a few years. She is always very thorough, listens well, and seems to genuinely care about her patients. One of my friends sees Jennifer and adores her as well. Highly recommended!"

"Doctor is extremely knowledgeable and thoroughly familiar with your file. Treatment is appropriate and conservative - takes lots of time to explain treatment options. Staff is friendly and professional. Facility is well appointed and clean. I have been going to Dr. Kessel since the 1970's - he's the best!"

"This is a wonderful practice. They don't keep you waiting for long periods like some other practices in the area. Friendly staff and very knowledgeable practitioners are supported by helpful people in the back office. So happy that we made the switch a few years ago to Kessel. I have recommended this office to friends and family and will continue to do so."
