Diseases treated by our Experts

  • Acne: It is a common skin condition characterized by the presence of pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and sometimes deeper cysts or nodules on the skin. It primarily affects areas with a high density of oil glands, such as the face, chest, and back. While it is most prevalent during adolescence, acne can persist into adulthood and may have various causes and contributing factors.
  • Eczema and dermatitis: These are terms often used interchangeably to refer to a group of skin conditions characterized by inflammation, redness, itching, and sometimes blistering or oozing. They can be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term) and may have various triggers and underlying causes.
  • Psoriasis: It is a chronic autoimmune skin condition characterized by the rapid overproduction of skin cells. This excess cell growth leads to the formation of thick, silvery scales and red patches on the skin's surface. Psoriasis can affect any part of the body, including the scalp, nails, and joints. It is not contagious, and while it may come and go, it is a lifelong condition.
  • Hair fall: Also known as hair loss or alopecia, is a common condition characterized by the excessive shedding of hair from the scalp. It can occur for various reasons and affects individuals of all ages and genders.
  • Skin cancer: It is the abnormal growth of skin cells, typically caused by prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or tanning beds. It is the most common form of cancer, and while it can occur anywhere on the skin, it is most likely to develop in areas that are frequently exposed to the sun.

FAQ

Dermatology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of conditions related to the skin, hair, nails, and mucous membranes. Dermatologists are trained to address a wide range of dermatological disorders.

Dermatologists treat a variety of skin-related conditions, including acne, eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, skin cancer, fungal infections, hair loss, nail disorders, and cosmetic concerns like wrinkles and age spots.

You should consider seeing a dermatologist if you have persistent or severe skin issues, such as chronic rashes, suspicious moles or lesions, acne that doesn't respond to over-the-counter treatments, hair loss, or if you're concerned about the appearance of your skin.

During a dermatology appointment, the dermatologist will conduct a thorough examination of your skin, hair, and nails. They may ask about your medical history and lifestyle factors. If necessary, they may perform tests or take samples for further analysis.

To maintain skin health, it's important to protect your skin from excessive sun exposure by wearing sunscreen, practicing good hygiene, and avoiding harsh chemicals or irritants. Additionally, maintaining a balanced diet, staying hydrated, and seeking prompt medical attention for any skin concerns are essential.
