Dr. Daniel Scott Karempelis

Meet Dr. K

There are dermatologists — and then there is Dr. K.

For nearly 30 years, Dr. D. Scott Karempelis has been a founding partner of Dermatology Associates of Atlanta, one of Georgia's most respected and innovative dermatology practices. Known throughout Atlanta for his friendly demeanor, sharp wit, and exceptional clinical expertise, Dr. K has built a reputation that is as warm as it is impressive. To his patients, he is not just their dermatologist — he is the physician they trust with some of the most personal and life-changing decisions they will ever make about their health and appearance.

That trust is earned every single day.

A Passion for Changing Lives Through Skin Care What drives Dr. Karempelis after nearly four decades in dermatology is the same thing that drew him to the field in the first place — the life-changing possibility of solving a patient's skin problem, whether it is a cancer that needs to be caught and treated or a cosmetic concern that has quietly chipped away at someone's confidence for years.

To Dr. K, both matter deeply. Both deserve the best possible care. And at Dermatology Associates of Atlanta, that is exactly what patients receive. As Medical Director of DAA's Laser Institute of Georgia — home to 18 medical lasers — Dr. K is widely recognized as one of Atlanta's foremost experts in laser dermatology. The Institute treats everything from skin cancers and pre-cancers to acne, rosacea, unwanted hair, brown spots, tattoo removal, scarring, and wrinkles. Dr. K stays actively involved in learning and implementing the latest laser technologies, ensuring his patients always have access to the most advanced treatments available anywhere in the Southeast.

The Full Picture of Skin Health Beyond his laser expertise, Dr. Karempelis is also highly regarded for his skill in facial injectables and SlimLipo™. Combined with DAA's seven specialty centers — covering hair transplants, facial rejuvenation, skin cancer and MOHS surgery, psoriasis treatment, liposuction, and esthetician services — Dr. K has the resources, the team, and the technology to treat virtually every skin concern under one roof. His goal from the very beginning of his medical career has been to identify and effectively treat the extraordinary range of conditions that come with every unique skin type. After nearly 30 years and thousands of patients at DAA, that goal is one he fulfills every single day.

Beyond the Office When he is not perfecting laser protocols or caring for patients across Atlanta, Dr. K can be found waterskiing, hitting the slopes snowskiing, or passionately cheering on the Georgia Bulldogs. His energy and enthusiasm for life outside medicine are every bit as evident as his dedication inside the clinic.
