Bell Ira MD

• Overview

• Dermatologists specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of problems related to skin, hair and nails. At Saddleback Dermatology & Laser Center, we have special interest and expertise in the treatment of skin cancer and are one of the few centers in Orange County offering Mohs micrographic surgery. This is the most advanced method of skin cancer removal resulting in higher cure rates with the least amount of tissue removal. Our office is certified by the Federal Health Care Administration as a high complexity laboratory which is required to perform the surgery and interpret the pathological material related to the procedure. You may not be aware, however, of the many cosmetic and ancillary services available here which are best suited to dermatologists and professionals working under the skin peels, glycolic and fruit acid application, wrinkle removal with collagen and Botox (Botox and Botox Cosmetic are trademarks owned by Allergan, Inc.) and sclerotherapy (removal of spider veins on the leg) are available here. We also offer permanent laser hair reduction and other laser therapies including removal of age spots, blood vessels, birthmarks, tattoos and laser resurfacing procedures which have revolutionized the treatment of aging and sun damaged skin. Tracy, our licensed medical aesthetician, offers services including microdermabrasion, glycolic acid skin rejuvenation, custom blended foundation and a wide range of alpha hydroxy containing products only available through physician offices. Alpha hydroxy acids have been shown to repair skin damage which results in the blotchiness, lines and wrinkles we associate with aging. These home products are often less costly and offer benefits not found in over the counter cosmetics purchased in department stores. Please accept our invitation to schedule a complimentary consultation with Tracy to learn more about how to care fo If you would like further information concerning medical or cosmetic procedures performed by our physicians or esthetic services performed by our skin care professionals, please ask. Educational material, brochures and personal consultations are available to help you.
