A dermatologist is a medical doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions related to the skin, hair, and nails. Dermatology is a branch of medicine that deals with a wide range of skin conditions, ranging from common issues like acne and eczema to more serious conditions such as skin cancer.
Skin Conditions: Dermatologists diagnose and treat a wide range of skin conditions, including acne, eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, and various types of skin infections.
Skin Cancer Detection: Dermatologists play a crucial role in the early detection and treatment of skin cancer. They perform skin examinations to identify suspicious moles or lesions and may perform biopsies for further evaluation.
Some dermatologists specialize in cosmetic dermatology, offering procedures such as Botox injections, dermal fillers, laser therapy, and chemical peels to enhance the appearance of the skin.
Hair and Nail Disorders: Dermatologists diagnose and treat conditions affecting the hair and nails, including alopecia (hair loss), fungal infections, and disorders causing changes in nail appearance.
Allergy Testing: Dermatologists may conduct patch testing to identify allergens causing skin reactions, helping patients manage conditions like contact dermatitis.
Chronic Skin Conditions: Management of chronic skin conditions, such as rosacea or psoriasis, involves dermatological expertise to provide long-term care and symptom control.
Pediatric Dermatology: Some dermatologists specialize in pediatric dermatology, addressing skin issues specific to infants, children, and adolescents.
