Lina Naga, MD, FAAD, of SkinDC just outside of Washington DC, is a Board Certified dermatologist who specializes in cosmetic dermatology, general dermatology, and surgical dermatology. Dr. Naga has been named a Top Doctor in the DC area by Washingtonian magazine.
Dr. Naga believes strongly in preventative dermatology. Whether she is targeting skin aging, skin cancer prevention, or the early treatment of the first signs of acne or rosacea, her approach emphasizes staying ahead of unwanted skin conditions whenever possible. This involves both early detection that is aided by the variety of technologies available at SkinDC, and early interventions in the form of topical treatments and/or in-office treatments to address each individual’s unique skin concerns.
Treating skin conditions early in their development will often require less aggressive treatments to achieve the desired results. In regards to skin aging, she strongly prioritizes natural-looking results and believes that small subtle treatments started early in life and maintained over time achieve a better and more natural-looking outcome.
Dr. Naga’s unique background in art and painting inspires her practice of dermatology. A series of her abstract acrylic paintings adorn the walls of the SkinDC office. Her artistic approach, eye for symmetry, and sharp visual perception set her apart from others in her field. By combining art and the science of medical dermatology, her treatment approach provides her patients with a unique and elegant care experience."
