Medical Dermatology

Medical dermatology is a branch of medicine focused on diagnosing, treating, and managing conditions affecting the skin, hair, and nails. It covers a wide range of disorders, including acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, skin infections, and autoimmune skin diseases. Dermatologists use various treatments such as topical and oral medications, and biologics to manage these conditions. Additionally, they play a crucial role in skin cancer detection and prevention, conducting screenings and biopsies to identify malignant growths. Medical dermatology aims to improve skin health, alleviate symptoms, and enhance patients' quality of life.
