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

What services does Elite Dermatology & Plastic Surgery provide?

We offer medical dermatology, pediatric dermatology, cosmetic dermatology, skin cancer screening and treatment (including Mohs micrographic surgery as well as superficial radiation therapy), and plastic surgery for facial rejuvenation, body contouring, and reconstruction.

K
L

Do you see children and teens?

Yes. Our providers care for infants, children, and adolescents with common and complex skin conditions, so families can receive care in one practice.

K
L

What makes your skin cancer care different?

We offer the full spectrum of skin cancer services—from screening and biopsy to dermatopathology review, Mohs surgery, and reconstruction as well as SRT (superficial radiation therapy)—delivered by a coordinated team of specialists. This continuity helps support precise diagnosis, effective treatment, and the best possible functional and cosmetic outcomes.

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

Where is Elite Dermatology located?

Our board-certified dermatologists provide medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology services and plastic surgery across the Greater Houston area with office locations in Fulshear, Heights, Kingwood, Pearland, River Oaks, and Vintage Park.

I would strongly recommend Dr Diana Mannschreck and Dr Andrew Armanda and their team starting with Rachael at the back desk, Nicole (Triage nurse) Sara and Cassandra (Medical Assistants) for their excellent service at Elite Dermatology in Kingwood. Dr Mannschreck discovered few lesions that needed Moh's surgery that Dr Armanda performed successfully. They all maintain a high level of care, and well being of their patients.. They are always pleasant to talk to and they all are very efficient ready to help and answered all my questions. and made me feel at ease. Thanks to their thorough approach my 2 Moh's surgeries were successful and I recovered quickly with hardly any noticeable scars on the wounds. Thank you Elite Dermatology-Kingwood, for such a quality care that I received. George Hadjioannou -6/26/26 Update / 09/10/26 _- today was my final 20th radiation treatment. Carissa the therapist from gentle cure is a very caring individual, efficient and experienced. Radiation is a much more pleasant experience than undergoing Mohs surgery though it is expensive since Medicare do not cover the cost of ultrasound $1,050. I also wish to thank Teresa at the front desk. Very friendly and well organized with no waiting time. The new building is also very cleaning modern. Way to go elite Dermatology!
