Lucid Dermatology (Elmhurst)

Lucid Dermatology describes itself as a dermatology practice that brings together medical, surgical, cosmetic and spa services. Its Jamaica office, at 88-08 179th Street in Queens, is the practice's flagship location, and it also has offices in Elmhurst and the Bronx. The practice says its care is high-quality and patient-focused, delivered in a clean, modern environment.

Every patient starts with a personalized consultation, where the team evaluates the skin, talks through the patient's goals and recommends a treatment plan. In most cases no referral is needed, so people can book medical, cosmetic or spa visits directly online, or by phone for a complimentary spa consultation. If an insurer requires a referral, staff can help with that step. Patients are seen regardless of background, including patients with Medicaid and Medicare, and bills can be paid online.

The practice's medical approach aims at the underlying cause of skin problems rather than only the symptoms, and it treats skin health as a foundation for long-term health and appearance, with an emphasis on prevention and non-invasive procedures. It says it has deep experience with skin concerns that are often overlooked or misdiagnosed, and specialized experience in dermatology for skin of color. It describes its treatments as evidence-based and designed for lasting results, and says board-certified dermatological oversight stands behind its spa treatments.

Treatment starts with identifying what is driving a skin problem, with an emphasis on prevention and procedures that avoid surgical incisions.

The practice describes its setting as clean and modern.
