A Louisiana-based dermatologist is expanding her practice with a new Southlake office opening next month.
For more than 25 years, Dr. Janine Hopkins has been practicing cosmetic and medical dermatology in Monroe, Louisiana. Offering a variety of laser treatments as well as full-skin cancer detection and prevention methods, Dr. Hopkins’ practice has grown over the years from two to 20 employees.
“I’ve spent a lot of time studying and perfecting my craft,” Dr. Hopkins says. “My motto is ‘Be healthy, be beautiful.’ Healthy skin is always going to look better. You can’t have one without the other.”
Now after more than two decades of improving patients’ lives, Dr. Hopkins is opening her second location right on Southlake Boulevard. Dr. Hopkins says Southlake appealed to her for a second office not just because of its proximity to Louisiana but also because of its location in the middle of the DFW Metroplex.
“I think we have a lot to offer around this area,” Dr. Hopkins says. “It’s a vibrant community. There’s so much growth here and the population is expanding, which means there’s a greater need for dermatologists.”
With a nonsurgical approach to many of her services, Dr. Hopkins says she specializes in anti-aging and skin cancer treatments that are as effective as they are non-invasive. Dr. Hopkins says she loves dermatology because it focuses on the whole body, not just parts of it.
"What’s very gratifying about being a dermatologist is that we can treat across the whole spectrum,” she says. "It isn’t strictly a cosmetic specialty. We’re also able to detect cancer that can otherwise be fatal if not caught early. It’s all under the same umbrella, and that’s what I love about it.”
Dr. Hopkins is opening her second office next month at 321 W. Southlake Blvd., Suite 180. To learn more about her practice, call 318.317.4855 or visit HopkinsDermatology.com.
