About William Kwan, MD

Dr. Kwan received a B.S. in biology from UCLA, magna cum laude, and completed his medical training at USC. He executed an internship at the University of Rochester Medical Center and returned to Los Angeles for a residency at UCLA. He became the Chief Resident of dermatology at King/Drew Medical Center in Los Angeles and then opened his current practice in San Francisco, California. Dr. Kwan is a prominent board-certified dermatologist, practicing both medical and cosmetic dermatology in San Francisco, CA. Dr. Kwan combines sophisticated technology with a commitment to the highest standards of patient care. He is among the nation’s leading practitioners of laser skin procedures and offers a full range of services to help each patient achieve healthy, beautiful skin. I grew up as a minority in a neighborhood and a time when what was portrayed as aesthetically desirable was not possible for me to achieve. When I became a dermatologist, I made it my mission to help people of all skin types feel confident about their reflection in the mirror and help highlight the things that make them uniquely beautiful. I’m proud to advocate for a society which encourage everyone to “Be Your Own Beautiful.
