Meet Dr. Timothy Jochen
"What I enjoy most about dermatology is that you can see the results. There's an art to it and I probably enjoy the artistic element more than anything. It is rewarding to help people improve their self-esteem as well as feel better physically."
Dr. Timothy Jochen founded Contour Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery Center and the specialized Laser Center at Contour Dermatology in 2001 with the mission of helping people maintain a vibrant appearance and feel great about their skin. He is a diplomate of the American Board of Dermatology and is trained in the latest techniques in dermatology, cosmetic surgery and hair restoration/transplantation.
