About Elite Dermatology & Plastic Surgery

Board-Certified Dermatologist-Led Care in Houston
Physician-Owned. Independent. Patient-Focused.

Our Mission: Physician-Led Comprehensive Care Without Corporate Influence

At Elite Dermatology & Plastic Surgery, our mission is to provide comprehensive, evidence‑based dermatology and plastic surgery care for patients of all ages in the Greater Houston area. We combine medical, surgical, pediatric, and cosmetic dermatology with plastic surgery so every patient can access the full range of appropriate options—not just a limited set of services.

As a physician‑owned, independent practice, treatment decisions are made by board‑certified physicians who know you and your history. This allows us to prioritize accurate diagnosis, thoughtful counseling, and long‑term results over high‑volume, one‑size‑fits‑all care.

The Elite Difference

  1. Comprehensive Care Under One Roof

    We offer medical dermatology, pediatric dermatology, cosmetic dermatology, skin cancer care including Mohs surgery, and plastic surgery in a single practice. This integrated model lets us recommend the right combination of prescription therapy, in‑office procedures, and surgery for your specific needs.

    We are able to present all appropriate options—from conservative monitoring to advanced reconstruction—rather than steering you toward a narrow menu of treatments.

  2. Expert-Led, Patient-Centered Care

    Elite Dermatology & Plastic Surgery was founded by a team of board-certified dermatologists who built the practice around one core principle: delivering exceptional, compassionate, patient-first care. Every patient is treated with respect, empathy, and personalized attention. This philosophy guides every provider in the practice and sets the standard for how patients are treated, regardless of which clinician they see.

    Our team includes board-certified dermatologists, plastic surgeons, physician assistants (PA-C), and nurse practitioners who work collaboratively and are held to the same rigorous clinical standards established by our founding physicians. Every provider is highly trained and carefully selected to ensure patients receive expert-level care, personalized treatment planning, and thoughtful attention at every visit.

  3. Physician-Founded, Independent

    As a physician-owned and independent practice, our clinical decisions are guided by medical expertise—not corporate production targets or outside investors. This structure allows our team to focus on what matters most: spending meaningful time with patients, exercising sound clinical judgment, and creating treatment plans tailored to each individual.

  4. Ethical, Evidence‑Based Medicine

    Every diagnosis and recommendation is rooted in current science, specialty training, and real‑world experience. We are committed to clear communication, honest discussion of risks and benefits, and treatment plans aligned with your goals and lifestyle.

Why Board-Certification Matters

When searching for a dermatologist or plastic surgeon in Houston, it’s important to understand what that designation means.

Board certification requires:

  • Completion of accredited medical school training
  • A rigorous residency program
  • Successful passage of comprehensive examinations
  • Ongoing continuing medical education

This level of training and on-going education is especially important in dermatology and plastic surgery, where physicians must safely diagnose and treat thousands of skin, hair, and nail conditions, detect and treat skin cancer, and perform complex medical, surgical, and cosmetic procedures. Choosing a board‑certified specialist helps ensure your care meets nationally recognized standards for safety, expertise, and ethics.

At Elite Dermatology & Plastic Surgery, clinical leadership begins and ends with board-certified physicians.

Our Providers

Elite’s team of dermatologists, dermatopathologists, Mohs surgeons, and plastic surgeons serve patients across multiple Houston-area locations. Working together, they provide coordinated care for everything from pediatric skin conditions and acne to melanoma, scarring, and advanced facial and body contouring. Each provider shares the same commitment to physician-led, patient-centered care.

If you are looking for a physician-owned dermatology practice in Houston where your care is directed by experienced specialists, we invite you to meet our team.

FAQs

K
L

How do you decide which treatment is right for me?

After a thorough evaluation, we discuss all appropriate options, which may include prescription medications, in‑office procedures, laser or light treatments, Mohs surgery, plastic surgery, or careful monitoring. Together, we choose a plan based on your diagnosis, goals, and tolerance for downtime and recovery.

K
L

Are there non-physician providers in the practice?

Our team includes physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and advanced aesthetic providers, who are highly trained, licensed medical professionals that practice in close collaboration with our board-certified dermatologists and surgeons.

Because Elite Dermatology & Plastic Surgery was founded by board-certified dermatologists, every provider in the practice—whether you see a dermatologist, plastic surgeon, physician assistant, nurse, nurse practitioner, or aesthetician—follows the same physician-led standards for patient care, safety, and treatment planning. This team-based model ensures patients receive expert-level care and access to the right specialist when needed.

K
L

Why is it important that Elite Dermatology is physician-owned?

Many dermatology practices in Houston are now owned by private equity firms, which can sometimes prioritize patient volume over individualized care. Being physician-owned allows our providers to make clinical decisions based solely on what is best for the patient’s health and outcomes.

K
L

I can’t say enough good things about Katy Oral and Facial Surgery in Fulshear. I went in for an evaluation and treatment for a cyst, and the whole experience was phenomenal from start to finish. The front desk staff was very friendly and I barely waited at all for both my evaluation appointment and subsequent surgical appointment. Dr. Connie Wang did my evaluation and took the time to explain everything and go over all my options. She was also able to have their surgeon Dr. Suzanne Alkul evaluate me that same day, which I didn’t expect. Dr. Alkul went over my treatment options too, and we decided to proceed with removal under local anesthesia at a future appointment. Dr. Alkul then saw me on the day of surgery and went over the procedure one more time. She removed it quickly and painlessly. She explained the postoperative instructions in great detail and provided her contact number if I had any issues. I healed well with no soreness or complications and minimal scarring. Every single person I interacted with including front desk, physician assistants, medical assistants, and doctors was professional and made me feel like they actually cared. Highly recommend this practice and will return for any dermatologic needs in the future. Thank you Dr. Wang, Dr. Alkul, and the whole team!
