Acne is the term for the blocked pores (blackheads and whiteheads), pimples, and deeper cysts and nodules that can appear typically on the face, neck, chest, back, shoulders and upper arms. Seventeen million Americans currently have acne, making it the most common skin disease in the country. While it affects mostly teenagers, and almost all teenagers have some form of acne, adults of any age can have it.
Various rashes can occur and are exclusive to pregnant woman. Although these rashes can be quite uncomfortable, most often they are harmless and cause no harm to the unborn baby. It is important to be seen promptly and treated appropriately. There are treatments that can be administered that are safe during pregnancy.
Skin Cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States, with more than one million new skin cancer cases reported each year. There are 3 types of skin cancer: Basal Cell Carcinoma, Squamous Cell Carcinoma, and Melanoma. Repeated sun exposure and genetic factors play a role in each type.
Repeated exposure to sunlight, or artificial ultraviolet light (as with tanning beds), can cause a variety of skin problems. Over exposure to the sun contributes to premature aging and increases the risk of developing skin cancer. Some signs of sun damaged skin include telangectasia (red or purple "spider veins"), uneven pigmentation, lines and wrinkles, thinning of the skin, loss of skin elasticity, and sores that do not heal.

Had a horrible breakout and after multiple scammed experiences with other dermatologist who did nothing but steal my money, I finally found Dr Bakshandeh through a friend and she not just made my breakout disappear but made my skin even better than it was before!

My family loves us some Dr. B. She first treated me for hormonal acne. Within two weeks of doing a regiment prescribed by her my skin cleared up. It's been a year and my skin is still thriving.

My 11 year old daughter had a tear in her earlobe due to an earring snag. I took her to Dr. B for repair. Of course my daughter was nervous and had anxiety about going to her appointment. Once she was there Dr. B put her anxiety at ease by making conservation with her by the time she she finished the procedure my daughter was telling her stories about school and her friends. And that my friends is

Dr B was very kind enough to give me a consultation over the phone right before the end of the day. She didn't charge me anything becuase my condition looked serious and she wanted me to make an appointment with her colleague as she wasn't available the next day. She's humble, selfless and puts patients need first. Very respectful and first time experiencing this much empathy from a doctor

I had a short-lived relationship with Dr. B; I've only had two visits. I waited 5-10 min for the first appt. and 20-30 min for the second. The office modern and chic. One of the employees, I'm not sure if she's a nurse or MA, leads you to the examination room and takes your intake, specifically all of your skin concerns. She is quite patient! Then, the ever so stunning Dr. B comes in and briefly discusses your history and options. She's sweet and extremely professional. Her initial treatment regimen for me was futile, but I kept it going because she said I needed to give the

Amazing! Went in as a new, self-pay patient with 3 concerns. Eve (I believe that was her name) took me into the exam room and asked me a few questions and took some photos. Less than 2 minutes later a super cheerful and kind Dr. Bakshandeh came in and had a look for herself. She said none of them needed biopsies/were concerning to her (thank god!) and she could remove them if I would like. There was no pressure and I was given the option of thinking on it or doing 1, 2, or all 3. She went over pricing, the procedure she would be doing, heal time, and if I would have scaring. I opted to just go

From the first time I met Dr.B 4 years ago, she has always been so authentic and honest. It's difficult finding a dermatologist in this area who doesn't push their services or products on you, which is one of the reasons why Dr. B is so great. She will give her honest professional opinion of what services (I.e. fillers Botox etc.) you need and don't need. I always feel comfortable in her hands, so I started bringing my mom, aunt and friends here and they too have had exceptional experiences. To top it off, she has an awesome personality!

This review is not about the actual Doctor's work, rather about the mannerism of her office staff answering her phone. Unfortunately, after attempting to schedule an appointment, I decided this is not a business I would feel comfortable paying or putting up with. The woman who answered the phone was so rude. Obviously questions are important & she was not friendly or inviting and even seemed bothered with basic questions I had. I don't understand why they would have someone's behavior like that greeting potential new patients/customers and in turn cause a loss of business/revenue

Dr Bakshandeh is amazing. I love her. I went to another Dr and they were not able to get rid of this persistent wart on my elbow after 8 treatments. Dr Bakshandeh got rid of it in one. And her price for my visit was half what the other Dr was charging. Then I had some sunspots and vessels on my face. Another Dr told me I had to do laser and it was thousands of dollars. Dr Bakshandeh had alternatives that were far less expensive and accomplished my goals. I could not be happier with the service and prices at her office. She is a fantastic. Best dermatologist I have ever come across.

I originally went here based on excellent reviews and I hope I can save even one person from going through what I went through.
Short version- I was told the procedure I elected would not cause scarring I'm left with a giant scar, larger than the original mole.

Full story:

I had concerns about my skin and decided to have a skin tag on my eye and mole removed. The skin tag on my eye came off without incident but the mole on leg is another issue.

I emailed the office with an image of the mole. ( Below) just over a month after the first nitrogen removal.

I was scheduled for an appointment

A MESSAGE TO ALL MY DIVAS IN LA: if you're looking for THE BEST DERM you've landed it.
Not only is Dr Bakshandeh a complete sweet heart but she truly loves what she does.
A lot of people can say that but I MEAN IT!
I turned 28 and all of the sudden I noticed I wasn't happy with my skin!
I've done a series of microneedling sessions because I had textured skin from past break outs and I've seen significant results with her.
I've even brought my mom to get the radio frequency microneedling. (Her neck and face look amazing !)
Dr Bakshandeh Me & Mom are so happy

Dr. Bakshandeh is the best. She is super responsive and extremely accommodating. I've been to many dermatologists before her and she has by far shown the best attitude and attentiveness towards her clients. I was super scared to go on accutane but she made the experience so easy! Would highly recommend :)

I HIGHLY recommend coming here. Everything about this place is great. I’m 15 and just finished my accutane treatment. During my treatment Dr. Bakshandeh did a great job in every way possible. During the pandemic she still did a great job with communicating with me and making sure I was doing well. The staff was very kind and I have no complaints. Along with everything else and most importantly, my acne was cleared! 10/10

Dr. Bakshandeh is a skin savior! My 15 year old son was suffering from an extremely stubborn case of acne. After having exhausted a number of topical and oral treatments, ranging from mild to heavy duty, Dr. Bakshandeh discussed starting J on Accutane. My older son was on it two years ago and the results were (are) incredible. It's considered to be an extremely effective drug, but one that must be monitored very closely, as it has the potential to be dangerous if the doctor is negligent. Dr. Bakshandeh administered his progress and physical health with monthly appointments and blood tests

Wow. I'm so impressed. I went in today for some Botox. I've never had Botox with a derm, so I assumed it was all done the same way in terms of pricing. I told Dr B where I usually get Botox and it was the best(least painful) injection I've ever had. I'm a wimp. She has a lovely disposition and injected so easily.

I went to the front desk to pay and was shocked to find out the pricing, which is not done by units, but by area. I've never heard of that, so I was really upset about the bill and it didn't seem like the front desk was willing to talk about the price so

Dr. Bakshandeh is an amazing dermatologist. I suffered from severe acne for years and she helped me achieve clear skin. I 100% recommend and trust her work. She made me feel like I was in good hands the moment I met her, she explained the process and allowed me to reach her every time I had any concerns/questions. I did try getting help from other dermatologist in the past but was not successful. Dr. Bakshandeh gave me great results. The receptionist there is super sweet as well as the aesthetician!

She’s amazing! FINALLY A DERM THAT CARES!! Ive been through multiple doctors for my severe acne and all of them looked at me for 3 minutes, didn’t ask me anything, and just wrote a prescription and sent me on my way. Dr. Haleh Bakshandeh is a great person and she wouldn’t quit until my acne was gone. I can’t thank her enough. If you want a dermatologist who actually is going to help you, stop looking...you’ve found her.

Both my daughter and I see Dr. B. and she is fantastic. She is very solution oriented, and willing to try multiple options to solve an issue. She is particularly good with teenagers and always offers my daughter reassurance.

Also, Dr. B.'s office staff is delightful and so flexible and accommodating. It's always a pleasure to deal with them.

My experience with Dr. B was so simple yet life changing! For years I’ve struggled with acne on my face and it seemed like there was no solution. I had gone through my fair share of dermatologists, but none of them seemed to care or fight for a change in my skin like Dr. B.
For one, she listens. We first attempted to clear up my face using topical treatments, but I didn’t feel like that was aggressive enough. She agreed and I began a 7 month treatment on Acutane. At first I was a little hesitant, but through Dr. B’s reassurance and confidence I knew it would be the most effective way to

Dr Bakshandeh is really nice and caring! She was very understanding of my situation and worked hard to resolve my acne problem. I had very stubborn ache and after my course it got a lot better. She takes the blood work in her offices which is very convenient if you have to take one every month. The office is nice and relatively schedule ( not a terribly long wait for her visits). Her assistants and the whole staff are very nice as well.

Dr.Bakshandeh was a blessing and changed my life for the better. I have never met a dermatologist like her, she planned my treatment specifically for me and treated me with such care. Every single time I went for a consultation Dr.B made me feel welcomed, important, and that I was able to have the skin I deserved. Suffering from severe acne and now post treatment without a blemish I couldn't be more happier. Dr.B is the nicest and kindest dermatologist you will ever meet and I will always be grateful for her work and changing my life. P.S. Shout out to Jackie for always giving support too !

I highly recommend Dr. Bakshandeh as she is an extraordinary dermatologist!!
To begin, she is very gentle when doing cosmetic treatments which in turn leaves you with AMAZING results. She has done Microneedling on me as well as countless other chemical peels and procedures (both medical and cosmetic) and the pain is always minimal if not completely absent. And my skin is always being complimented, thanks to her! She takes her time and is a perfectionist- especially with cosmetic treatments. She is extremely fair and if you need to communicate with her she will literally take the time out of her

I genuinely cannot recommend Dr. Bakshandeh highly enough. I had tried out another nearby dermatologist and was so disappointed by how I was treated. I didn't feel like the other doctor listened to my frustrations with previous acne treatments, and the cancer biopsies she performed left ugly scars. I switched to Dr. Bakshandeh after reading the Yelp reviews, and I can honestly say it was the best health decision I've ever made. Her office (and demeanor) is warm and inviting, and she made me feel less embarrassed by the acne coating my cheeks. She immediately suggested going on accutane to treat
