What does a dermatologist do?

A Dermatologist is a medical specialist who treats diseases and cosmetic concerns related to the skin, hair, and nails. They manage conditions ranging from common problems like acne, eczema, and psoriasis to serious diseases like melanoma. Cosmetic Dermatologists also perform aesthetic treatments including chemical peels, laser therapy, Botox, fillers, and hair loss treatments. Dermatopathologists specialize in skin biopsies. A Dermatologist is also trained to identify systemic diseases that manifest in the skin.
