About

At Dermy Doc Institute in Southfield, MI, Dr. Fatima Fahs MD, FAAD delivers direct care dermatology with transparent, upfront pricing and no insurance involvement. She treats both pediatric and adult patients across medical, cosmetic, surgical, and pediatric dermatology. Appointments run longer and unhurried, giving patients real time with their doctor. The practice fills prescriptions in-house and stocks a curated skincare boutique on-site.

Dr. Fahs takes a holistic approach to skin health, addressing underlying causes alongside surface symptoms. The practice holds two notable distinctions: it was the first in Michigan to offer the UltraClear® fractional laser and the first in Metro Detroit to bring XERF technology to patients. The laser suite also includes DermaV, PicoSure Pro, and XERF. Telehealth visits serve Michigan-based patients. Pricing starts at $95 for monthly follow-ups and $125 for established single-problem visits.
