Dermatology Institute & Skin Care Center in Santa Monica, California, specializes in cosmetic, medical, and surgical dermatology. Led by board-certified dermatologist Paul Yamauchi, MD, PhD, the practice offers state-of-the-art dermatology services to provide the highest quality skin care possible.
The practice focuses on medical dermatology, with an emphasis on diagnosing and treating skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, hair loss, and acne and rosacea. Patients can also visit the practice for regular skin checks. If a suspicious lesion or skin cancer is found, treatment like precise and effective Mohs surgery is available.

Laser skin resurfacing using cutting-edge technology erases age spots and vascular lesions while smoothing out textural irregularities like acne scars and blemishes. The practice also offers Sutani™, a high-quality skin care line curated by Dr. Yamauchi.

Psoriatic arthritis (PA) is usually a complication of the skin condition psoriasis. However, sometimes you develop PA first and only later notice skin changes. Psoriasis can be uncomfortable and embarrassing. Here’s what you can do about it.
As you’ve grown older and wiser, you’ve grown tougher, too. Little things don’t bother you the way they used to. You focus on the positive. But as you grew tougher, your skin did, too. How can you keep your wisdom but still glow with youth?
None of the creams, oils, and lotions you’ve tried have completely resolved the dry, itchy patches on your skin. While you may be frustrated, don’t give up on finding help. Your dry skin might actually be a symptom of eczema.
