Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a dermatologist and an esthetician?
Dermatologists are licensed physicians who diagnose and treat medical conditions of the skin, hair, and nails. Estheticians provide cosmetic skincare services. Medical conditions always require evaluation by a dermatologist.
Can acne be fully cured?
Acne can be effectively controlled with the right treatment plan, which may include topical medications, oral antibiotics, hormonal therapy, or isotretinoin for severe cases. Some patients achieve long-term remission, while others require ongoing maintenance therapy.
What should I watch for in a mole that might be concerning?
Use the ABCDE criteria: Asymmetry, Border irregularity, multiple Colors, large Diameter (greater than 6mm), and Evolution or change over time. Any mole that changes, bleeds, or looks noticeably different from others should be evaluated promptly.
