Plastic Surgery and Dermatology Associates Chevy Chase

The practice is a plastic surgery and dermatology medical practice with its main office at 8501 Arlington Boulevard in Fairfax and a second office at 5550 Friendship Blvd. in Chevy Chase, Maryland. It welcomes patients from Fairfax, Arlington, Annandale, Washington DC and the wider DMV area. The practice describes itself as a full-service medical center and as the leading practice for plastic surgery and dermatology in Fairfax; those are its own claims.

Two physicians work here and combine plastic surgery with dermatology, using what the practice describes as state-of-the-art technology. The practice says it aims to give each patient personal attention and enough time with physicians and staff for comfortable conversation and patient education. Services span plastic surgery of the breast, body and face, cosmetic dermatology, medical dermatology for skin conditions across all ages, a medical spa menu, injectables and several laser treatments. Full body skin exams, a head-to-toe visual check for signs of skin cancer, are also offered; they typically take less than 30 minutes, and a biopsy is performed if a suspicious spot is found. Skin cancer excision is also offered.

The Fairfax office is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, with Thursdays open until 5:30 pm, and is closed on weekends. The Chevy Chase office is open only on Mondays from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm and on Wednesdays from 9:00 am to 2:30 pm.

Most major insurance plans are accepted, including Anthem, CareFirst, Cigna, Medicare and UnitedHealthcare; patients with other plans can call to check. CareCredit financing is accepted alongside traditional payment, and the practice notes CareCredit offers interest-free promotional financing. Treatment costs are set after an initial consultation, once a treatment plan is developed. Online appointment scheduling and online payment are available. The practice asks patients to phone the office at 703-645-0077 rather than use the website contact form, which should not be used for medical questions.

The practice combines plastic surgery and dermatology under one roof, with an emphasis on personal attention and enough time for patients to ask questions and learn about their treatment.
