Designed to make aesthetic care more accessible and convenient for Reno residents, the new space allows The Skin Institute to further enhance patient experience and appointment availability, while clinicians at the Warren Way location will continue to offer medical dermatology and skin cancer treatments.

“Opening The Skin Institute – Lakeside Crossing allows us to focus exclusively on cosmetic dermatology in a spacious, state-of-the-art environment,” said Dr. Whitney Hovenic, board-certified dermatologist and fellowship-trained Mohs Micrographic Surgeon. “Our thoughtfully designed exam rooms and spacious, comfort-focused environment allows us to better serve Reno residents seeking high-quality aesthetic care.
