General dermatology covers treatments for the skin, hair, and nails. Dermatological treatments can fall under the categories of medical dermatology and aesthetic dermatology. Treatments for acne and skin conditions, such as psoriasis and eczema, fall under the classification of medical dermatology.
Aesthetics dermatology covers a vast array of treatment options, many of which take advantage of advanced technologies. One of the most well-known treatments includes the use of BOTOX for facial rejuvenation and smoothing or CoolSculpting for getting rid of excess fat. Other therapies include dermal fillers, intense pulsed light (IPL) photofacials, and vein treatments, such as sclerotherapy.
Today, dermatologists treat a number of skin and hair conditions using lasers. Lasers are used for laser hair removal, laser skin resurfacing, and laser sunspot or tattoo removal. In addition, you can call a dermatologist to schedule procedures, such as clinical facials, micro-blading, microdermabrasion, and chemical peels.
Dermatologists often treat patients who have eczema or acne. These are the most common medical complaints. Eczema is a skin condition that results in rough patches of skin. The patches may cause the skin to bleed, peel, blister, or itch. A combination of environmental and genetic factors may cause blemishes.
Another skincare complaint, acne which develops when the oil glands in the skin become inflamed or infected. Acne can result from irritation or by using the wrong skincare products. The sebaceous glands under the follicles in the skin can cause whiteheads, blackheads, or cysts to form. While acne can develop just about anywhere on the body, it most often occurs on the face.
Both acne and eczema can be treated with facials. In addition, lasers may also be used to eliminate acne. Whether your condition is medical or you wish to smooth your skin of wrinkles, the services of a dermatologist can provide you with the solutions you need.
You can also receive medical-grade skincare products from a general dermatology practice. Using these products can help you realize smoother skin and, ultimately, a flawless complexion.
