About the Berman Skin Institute

The Berman Skin Institute is one of world's largest skin and aesthetic laser centers, headquartered in Palo Alto, California, adjacent to the Stanford University Medical Center, with satellite centers in San Francisco and Walnut Creek (directly across from the Bart Station). Our mission is to blend state-of-the-art medical technology with a dedication to patient welfare and healing to provide you with the best possible dermatologic care. Rightfully, our patients expect the best from us, and we strive to meet and exceed these expectations.

The Berman Skin Institute Staff

Headed by David Berman, M.D., a pioneer in the development of dermatological laser therapies and tumescent liposuction, the latest, most effective procedures are available to you at the Berman Skin Institute. With 35 different lasers on site and a professional staff of 35, including three board-certified dermatologists, physician assistants, registered nurses and support staff, we are able to address an enormous range of skin and aesthetic concerns.

Advanced technologies available at the Institute include Mohs Micrographic surgery, offering the highest cure rate for skin cancer surgery, revolutionary treatments for acne, our innovative color ultrasound scanning technology to help guide our lasers for removal of deep varicose leg veins, and other ultrasonic medical devices to facilitate the removal of fat during liposuction procedures. The Institute also offers other supportive services such as on-site treatments by licensed aestheticians and therapeutic massage.

In fact, the Berman Skin Institute offers a full complement of services and a caring, well-trained staff - all of whom put patient care first - to make your experience at the Institute as "patient-friendly" as possible. Because we understand the personal and professional demands on your time, we offer consultation appointments during the evening and on Saturdays and Sundays. Please call us at the location most convenient for you.
