About Dr. M. Elena Kendall Dr. Kendall offers patients both surgical and nonsurgical alternatives. “We like to think of ourselves as one-stop shopping. When talking with patients, we go through the whole spectrum of alternatives but always recommend what we think will give them the best results,” she says. Commitment to quality and staying current with new technologies are principles that guide the 26-year cosmetic dermatologist in helping patients identify ways to reverse the aging process. She is also dedicated to concentrating on treatments that are proven to work. Facial rejuvenation is the most common procedure done at her practice, and she believes in tailoring her approach to each patient. By utilizing a combination of laser treatments, injectables like Botox® or soft tissue fillers such as Restylane®, photodynamic therapy, and topical treatments, Dr. Kendall is able to design customized treatment plans that leave her patients’ skin looking luminous and healthy. “I am very up-front with my patients, telling them what I can and cannot do. I’m always looking for what is going to yield the most-effective results in that particular patient,” she says.
		Dr. Kendall is a Mohs surgery specialist and is constantly educating her patients and members of the community. Her practice has worked with Univision, the Hispanic television network, to produce educational programs on skin cancer and psoriasis, and offers free consultations to patients to help them learn more about their condition and the available therapies.
