My Skin Dermatology

Just finished up my last month on Accutane with Dr. K. I don’t think folks can imagine how blessed I am to of been able to go through this treatment without a single problem. I am not 100% satisfied with my skin as I have a lot of hyper pigmentation and large pores from the acne (nothing Accutane can really fix) but I am thrilled with the results! I will definitely be back to tackle that issue! Never thought I’d get here. Thank you Dr. K and your staff for always being so accommodating and friendly.

I’m a «frequent flier» at Dr. K’s office for the last couple of years. As a pale skinned SoCal native, I come often for check ups and pre-​cancer treatments.
Dr.K impresses me with the way he is aggressive with treatment when he needs to be, but he also takes conservative routes if he can to spare me unnecessary pain.
I love how proud he is of his profession and new technology. He cares very much about high level work and results.
His staff are extremely friendly and kind, and genuine.

VERY FRIENDLY STAFF. In an age of sterile, overbearing healthcare staff, this place stands out. Derms are a little interesting in the med circles. Most fields you want knowledge and expertise but don’t really care too much about precision. As long as the issue is fixed, what else matters, right? But derms need to be artists if the issue is on your face or other exposed area. So it is very nice to see a healthy amount of concern for the resulting appearance even if the issue is solved.
And you won’t find a bunch of upselling in this office. So it is easy to talk options and not feel pressured.
Great staff, great doc, and fair prices. (I do watch the bills even with insurance as all consumers should)

I have never looked for a physician through Unilocal,but was so fed up with the dermatologist I had been going to for years that I needed a change and didn’t know where else to look. I am so very thankful that I did, because this office and the Doctor are both completely amazing! Not only is he nice with a fabulous bed side manner, but he knows his stuff! The Doctor helped me navigate the pharmacy and explained how to get discounted prescriptions. Amazing! He wants you to actually save money and doesn’t require useless follow-​up appointments. Just wish he could be my primary care doc! Good luck!

I recommend this dermatologist to anyone who wants beautiful skin. Dr. Kechichian is amazing! I have had bad skin all of my life and I have been to several doctors, tried several at home treatments and nothing worked. I tried changing my diet and everything and that did not work either. I went to Dr. Kechichian’s office and my skin has been clearer and more beautiful than ever, its hard to remember how bad it was until I see pictures. I highly recommend him he is a life saver I feel so much more confident in myself. He also has an amazing staff, they are very warm and helpful.

Very friendly staff. Dr K is very professional and knowledgeable. Had a skin tag removed from my hip. His assistant did the lidocaine shot which I didn’t even feel. Dr K and I had a short conversation and he was done in seconds. I’ll go back for all my skin needs.

I’m one of those light skinned guys that worked outside under the sun daily. I worked on the flight line at George AFB, in Victorville CA, Nellis AFB in Las Vegas NV, and Edwards AFB in the Mojave Desert. The sun took a toll on my skin, because I neglected the use of sun screen or sun protection. I had several areas of concern on my arms and face. The medical staff at Edwards AFB could not treat me. The medical staff at Edwards AFB eventually referred me to a skin care clinic in Palmdale, CA. And directed me to see Dr. Aram H. Kechichian (Dr. K). I won’t mention that clinics name, because in my opinion if wasn’t for Dr. K I wouldn’t have continued to go to that clinic. I wasn’t happy with that clinics staff or billing practices.
I can’t begin to recall all of the treatments that I’ve been through with Dr. K, but I can tell you that in every single case I’m 100% satisfied! About 7 years ago I had a cancerous spot on my face that was the size of a 25 cent coin that was located under my right eye and nose. Dr. K carefully removed the spot, and all surrounding tissue that was cancerous. The next step in the treatment was to have a plastic surgeon in Valencia cosmetically stitch me up, and treat the wound. The plastic surgeon wasn’t interested in helping since I wasn’t there for his «cosmetic» opportunities.
I went back to Dr. K that afternoon, and Dr. K stitched me up. WOW! What an awesome job! Dr. K’s work was perfect! I have no visible scaring. I’m telling you I had a huge cancerous spot removed. Dr. K sewed me back up, and if you look at my face you can’t see any scaring. Now I’m no beauty to begin with, but you have to get up super close to see any visible remnants of a scar. When I share this story with people and they see the pictures of the surgery, and then the spot that has healed they’re amazed.
To this day I still see Dr. K whenever I have a concern with my skin. When I walk into his office I’m greeted by the friendliest staff. Dr. K doesn’t hesitate to greet me or his other patients with a smile and verbal greeting. Once you get into the exam room Dr. K will thoroughly exam your concerns. He’ll also engage you in conversation while he’s taking a good look at your skin. He always reminds me that I need to wear sun screen – even at night when I’m sleeping! I love his jokes. He’s very thorough and doesn’t perform anything that isn’t necessary.
I can’t stress enough how satisfied I am with Dr. K and his staff. Whether you’re in Palmdale, Santa Clarita, or the San Fernando Valley you need to see Dr. K. You will be happy that you did!

Dr K is great. Energetic, engaged, listens, concise, truthful; all the things you want in a great Dermatologist. I am a hotbed for pre-​cancer, and he is dedicated to making sure I stay /​keep healthy.
I have had a MoHS surgery with him and my other Dr’s were so impressed with his suture technique that even though a large section of skin had to be removed the scarring was negligible considering what had to be excised.
I would recommend him to ALL of my family or friends for their dermatology needs.

Dr was nice and knowledgable but the front office staff completely messed up my insurance payment.
They told me it was $ 100 for the visit since I hadn’t met my deductible yet. It says right on my insurance card that I have a $ 45 office copay (this was just a first office visit, no procedures of any kind). I paid the $ 100 then a week later got a letter from my insurance company that the visit indeed should have been $ 45 office copay, not subject to my deductible.
I called but they refused to refund me until they received confirmation from insurance. They told me that since they have had trouble getting insurance to pay in the past they routinely collect $ 100 and then reimburse as necessary. I don’t believe this to be an ethical business practice and have told them so in several phone conversations.
They did end up refunding my entire $ 100 because of the frustration this caused, to which I am very thankful.

I have been looking for an honest and a decent dermatologist who I can trust for years, however unfortunately I had bad experiences with the majority of them, and felt like I was just a sells opportunity for their unending and unnecessary products which cost me a lot of money.
It was not until I was desperately looking for another dermatologist online for a skin condition I had developed, that I came across Dr K’s office. As soon as I read the reviews I felt like that I could give it a try. I went into the office, very calm and welcoming atmosphere, along with energetic and compassionate staff who helped me feel comfortable and at home.
The most important part for me was that each and every staff member took their time to clearly listen to my concern without offering any products, and Dr K also sat with me, listened and in order to help me out financially (since I don’t have insurance) he gave me samples to use and explained that if doesn’t help he will go forward with other options.
My face got better within two days and I didn’t need to spend crazy amount of money on unnecessary products, the staff gave me samples to take home, and I found the dermatologist I have been looking all over for years.
I’m truly grateful that there are still honest people who care for the well-​being of their patients, and they prioritize their needs first.

Dr. Kechichian was very thorough and personable. His staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The office is very nicely decorated and comfortable. I was seen very close to my appointment time. If your tired of long wait times, try My Skin Dermatology. You won’t be disappointed!

I went here recently for an infection on my hand and Dr. Kecheckian was amazing. Very friendly atmosphere and Dr. K was very knowledgeable. Price was great and service was amazing, was in & out. Thanks guys !!!

very nice friendly staff and doctor! my son and I both had biopsies done! we have insurance which is how I found this particular office! have to have a couple more biopsies but because I am on Plavix he didn’t want too many open wounds! great place, highly recommend!

I was referred to Dr. Kechichian by a family member. At first I was hesitant to do the 40 something mile trek from Arcadia to Santa Clarita, because I said I’m sure I can find someone closer to home that’s just as good. Turns out, there’s just nobody as good as Dr. Kechichian. He truly cares for each and everyone of his patients. I’m always very hesitant when it comes doing anything for the first time — Dr. Kechichian makes you feel at ease and right from the start you feel that you can trust him. I was never rushed and I didn’t feel like I was just another customer (like so many places nowadays where you’re just a number). I will gladly refer my friends and family to him. Well worth the drive, regardless of wherever you are coming from!

My mom made an appt for me about my acne scars. I went in today, and the receptionist and other employees were so kind to me. They have plenty of samples that they encourage you to take home, and they aren’t those tiny samples, they are like travel size bottles.
Anyways– it was 100 for a consult, very good price. I spoke with Dr. K about treatment for my acne scars and he was completely honest with me. He said I needed a fractal laser (which they don’t have, yet) and referred me to a guy in Newhall.
He could have sold me on peels or dermabrasion but he has integrity. Instead he refunded my consult fee and gave me a name of a practice with a laser.
I HIGHLY RECCOMEND HIM! If you have current ongoing acne, he’s your man.
Thanks Dr. K and staff!

I highly recommend My Skin Dermatology! Dr K and everyone in his staff are extremely kind and friendly. In my first visit, he was able to identify what my condition was within minutes of just meeting me. I had gone to 3 other dermatologist in the past and never took the time to really explain anything to me. They were just quick to prescribe a medication. Dr K went into full detail of what I have and explained to me all my options. I have had this condition for the past 10 years and for the first time I am getting the correct treatment all thanks to Dr K and team!

I highly recommend Dr K and his staff. He is thorough and is willing to listen, answer questions and give you the time you need.
Your phone call gets answered by a live person who tries to help.
They are very considerate of their patients and are appreciative.

The office was beautiful, the staff was incredibly friendly, and they gave me so many free samples of face wash, creams, etc. the doctor was very knowledgable and I was very happy I went in. Plus, it was the cheapest first consultation I could find ($ 100, whereas everyone else was $ 140+). I already rescheduled.

I went to Dr. K and would definitely recommend him. He’s funny and very knowledgable, I had a body exam and he noticed a spot that needed attention and had it biopsied right then and there. His staff is also very nice and professional. Im going to be making my husband an appointment soon!

Dr. Kechichian is the most thorough doctor in any specialty I’ve ever dealt with. My Skin Dermatology is extremely well kept and cleanliness is very important to this office. Pay no mind to the exterior of the building. I always recommend him to everyone I meet.
