ELYRA D. FIGUEROA, MD

Physician

Dr. Figueroa is a board-certified allergist dedicated to providing excellent, innovative and compassionate care.  She specializes in aesthetic and cosmetic dermatology.  Her dynamic vision is to provide the highest quality of comprehensive dermatologic care to each of her patients in a warm and interactive environment.  She is dedicated to anti-aging and skin care education.  She is a member of the International Association for Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine and the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine.  As an allergist, Dr. Figueroa treats hives and various rashes.  She has a passion for treating atopic dermatitis which is better known as  "eczema" because with diligence in the treatment plan the symptoms go away.  Many times over her patients have mistaken her for their dermatologist so the transition seemed inevitable.  Dr. Figueroa considered pursuing dermatology residency after completing her Pediatric Residency at St. Louis University and Allergy & Immunology fellowship at Washington University but she was blissfully distracted by the birth of her eldest daughter.  When she is not working as an allergist or aesthetic physician, she enjoys volunteering in the St. Louis community, spending time with family, entertaining friends, cooking and traveling.  Her pride and joy are her two daughters, Isabella and Madeline.  She is forever grateful to her husband, Chris, for his unconditional love and support in all her endeavors.
