Posted on: August 12th, 2025 by Our Team

We’re excited to share an important update with you! Apex Skin Center will become Peak Skin Center on September 15, 2025.

While our name has changed, our mission and values remain the same. This evolution better reflects our commitment to helping every patient reach their peak skin health, no matter where their journey begins – in Fuquay Varina, Holly Springs, Apex, Cary or beyond. At Peak Skin Center, we are here for you and here for your skin.

What’s Staying the Same

You can expect the same trusted care you’ve always received from us:

  • The same trusted providers and staff who know you, your history, and your goals.
  • The same comprehensive dermatologic services, from medical and surgical dermatology to cosmetic treatments.
  • The same dedication to personalized, expert care that puts your needs first. 

What’s New

Our new name symbolizes our promise to partner with you in achieving your highest level of skin health, no matter where in Central North Carolina you are located. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition, seeking preventive care, or enhancing your skin’s appearance, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Our name may be different, but our foundation is as strong as ever with enduring Core Values:

  • Professionalism – Integrity, transparency, and accountability in everyday practice.
  • Clinical Excellence – Quality rooted in science and years of experience.
  • Hospitality – Kindness that goes the extra mile for every patient.
