It is an area of medicine that also deals with a variety of systemic illnesses that may manifest as skin conditions. This field of medicine helps patients achieve optimal skin health and addresses systemic diseases which may be related to skin health. As a result, dermatology has a broad range of therapies, methods, and services that can improve overall health and wellness. Through careful attention to the patient’s history and physical examination, dermatologists can diagnose and manage many conditions. Examples of treatments include topical and systemic medications, laser surgery, and Mohs Surgery.
