Dermatology
Dermatology is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disorders related to the skin, hair, and nails. Dermatologists are trained to manage a wide range of conditions, including acne, eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, skin infections, and skin cancers. They also address cosmetic concerns such as wrinkles, age spots, and hair loss, employing various treatments and procedures to enhance skin appearance and health.
In addition to clinical care, dermatologists perform various procedures, including skin biopsies, excisions of suspicious moles, cryotherapy for warts, and laser treatments for pigmentation and vascular lesions. They are also skilled in administering cosmetic treatments, such as injectables (e.g., Botox and dermal fillers) and chemical peels, to improve skin texture and reduce signs of aging.
