Comprehensive dermatology care that blends medical expertise with genuine attention to your skin's unique story. From routine screenings to advanced cosmetic treatments, we're here for every layer of your skin health journey.
At Luminous Skin Dermatology, we believe that exceptional skin care starts with understanding — not just your skin type, but your life, your concerns, and your goals. Located in the heart of Redondo Beach, our practice brings together medical dermatology, surgical procedures, and cosmetic services under one roof.
Whether you're managing a chronic skin condition, monitoring changing moles, or exploring options to rejuvenate your complexion, our team provides clear explanations, honest recommendations, and treatment plans that respect your time and budget.
From preventive screenings to advanced treatments, we offer a full spectrum of dermatology services tailored to your needs.
Diagnosis and treatment of common skin conditions including acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and skin infections. We take the time to understand the root cause, not just the symptoms.
Thorough full-body skin examinations using dermoscopy and advanced imaging to detect early signs of skin cancer. Early detection saves lives — we make it simple and thorough.
In-office surgical procedures performed with precision and care, including mole removal, skin lesion excision, cyst treatment, and Mohs surgery coordination.
Evidence-based cosmetic treatments designed to enhance your natural appearance. We focus on results that look like you — just refreshed and rested.
Gentle, age-appropriate skin care for children and adolescents. From baby eczema to teenage acne, we create a comfortable environment for young patients and their families.
Comprehensive evaluation and treatment of nail diseases and hair loss conditions. We address the underlying causes to help restore health and confidence.
In an era of rushed appointments and impersonal care, we've built something different. Our practice is designed around the idea that dermatology works best when the doctor knows the patient — not just the prescription pad.
You'll see the same doctor every visit. No rotating residents, no handoffs — just consistent, informed care that tracks your skin over time.
Appointments are scheduled with enough time for real conversation. We listen first, examine thoroughly, and explain clearly.
No surprise bills or hidden fees. We verify insurance benefits upfront and discuss costs before any procedure so you can make informed decisions.
Easily accessible on W Torrance Blvd with ample parking. We're right in the heart of the community we serve.
Dr. Taylor is a board-certified dermatologist who brings a rare combination of clinical rigor and genuine compassion to every patient interaction. After completing her medical training and dermatology residency, she chose Redondo Beach as the place to build her practice — drawn by the community's values of health, transparency, and quality of life.
Her approach centers on education. She believes patients make better decisions when they understand their conditions, their options, and the reasoning behind each recommendation. Whether discussing a suspicious mole or a cosmetic enhancement, the conversation is always honest and direct.
Real feedback from real patients who trust us with their skin health.
"I've been to several dermatologists over the years, but Dr. Taylor is the first one who actually made me feel heard. She took the time to explain my skin cancer screening results in detail and didn't rush me through anything. That kind of attention is rare."
"My teenage daughter has struggled with severe acne for years. After trying countless over-the-counter products, we found Luminous Skin. The treatment plan they created for her has made a real difference — and she actually looks forward to her follow-up appointments now."
"I was nervous about my skin cancer screening, but the staff made me feel completely at ease. Dr. Taylor was thorough, gentle, and honest about everything. She caught something early that another doctor had missed. I can't recommend this practice enough."
Yes, we accept most major insurance plans. Our front desk team will verify your benefits before your appointment and explain any out-of-pocket costs upfront. We also offer transparent self-pay pricing for cosmetic procedures.
You can schedule by calling (310) 374-3100 during our business hours, or by filling out the contact form below. We'll confirm your appointment via phone or email and send reminders to help you prepare.
Please bring a photo insurance card, a list of current medications and supplements, and any relevant medical records if you're switching providers. For skin cancer screenings, avoid wearing heavy makeup on the area being examined.
We accommodate urgent cases when possible. Call us as soon as you notice a concerning change — a new or changing mole, a painful rash, or signs of infection. We'll prioritize your appointment and see you promptly.
Medical dermatology focuses on diagnosing and treating skin diseases and conditions that affect your health. Cosmetic dermatology focuses on improving the appearance of your skin. Many patients benefit from both — we address health concerns first, then discuss enhancement options.
Most adults should have a full-body skin exam at least once a year. If you have a personal or family history of skin cancer, fair skin, or many moles, we may recommend more frequent visits. We'll create a schedule tailored to your risk level.
Yes, there is free parking available at our location on W Torrance Blvd. We're easily accessible from I-405 and the 91 Freeway, with convenient street parking and a nearby lot.
We offer telehealth for follow-up visits and certain skin conditions where an in-person exam isn't immediately necessary. For new concerns and skin cancer screenings, we recommend an in-office visit for the most accurate assessment.
Whether you need a routine screening, treatment for a persistent condition, or a consultation about cosmetic options, we're here to help. Schedule your visit today and experience dermatology care that puts you first.
