Common Questions

Dermatology FAQs

What is the difference between medical dermatology and cosmetic dermatology?

Medical dermatology treats skin conditions like acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and skin cancer screenings. Cosmetic dermatology focuses on aesthetic improvements like wrinkle reduction, laser treatments, and skin rejuvenation. At Allure MD, we offer both comprehensive medical and cosmetic dermatology services.

How often should I get a skin cancer screening?

Adults should have an annual skin cancer screening, especially those with fair skin, history of sunburns, or family history of skin cancer. If you have many moles or previous skin cancer, more frequent screenings may be recommended. Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes.

What treatments are available for acne scars?

We offer multiple acne scar treatments including RF microneedling, chemical peels, laser resurfacing, and dermal fillers. The best approach depends on your scar type and skin tone. Our dermatologists create personalized treatment plans to achieve optimal results.

Can eczema and psoriasis be cured?

While there's no cure for eczema or psoriasis, modern treatments effectively manage symptoms and provide long-term relief. We offer topical treatments, phototherapy, and biologics for psoriasis. Our goal is to minimize flare-ups and improve your quality of life.

What should I do to prepare for a dermatology appointment?

Remove nail polish if we're checking nails, arrive with clean skin (no makeup on problem areas), bring a list of current medications and skincare products, and note any changes in moles or new skin concerns. Photos of changing moles can also be helpful.
