Medical dermatology is the evaluation and diagnosis of diseases of the skin, hair, and nails. When it comes to medical dermatology, Cleveland patients rely on The Parker Skin and Aesthetic Clinic for safe and effective treatments.

What Are Medical Dermatology Treatments?

Medical dermatology treatments are an array of services that treat various skin conditions and rejuvenate the skin. There are specific treatments for each type of skin condition.

We offer four major medical dermatology services for our clients depending on the skin condition being addressed:

Photodynamic Therapy – Photodynamic therapy (PDT) can treat mild to serious skin conditions. It uses a photosensitizing drug activated by a light source. This treatment can destroy abnormal cells, minimize oversized pores, and address overactive oil glands.

Skin Cancer Treatment – Skin cancer treatment focuses on treating abnormal growths on the skin. It treats various kinds of skin cancer, including squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, and melanoma. The cancer cells can be treated through methods such as freezing, excision, laser therapy, Mohs surgery, or chemotherapy.

Skin Checks – Skin cancer is easier to treat at an early stage. Therefore, it is important to detect skin cancer as soon as possible. We offer skin cancer screening services and perform a full-body exam to ensure that all potential cancer cells are detected and treated right away.

Varicose Vein Treatment – Varicose veins and spider veins are caused by the blood flowing in the wrong direction. This happens when the vein valves are damaged. We provide treatments for spider veins and varicose veins such as visual and ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy, RF ablation, and VenaSeal.

Conditions Treated by Medical Dermatology

There are numerous skin conditions that we can treated with medical dermatology. Common conditions include Acne, Eczema, Psoriasis, rosacea, and a href=”/medical-dermatology-procedures-cleveland/warts/”>Warts.

Acne forms when the pores are clogged with dead skin cells and oil, creating an environment for bacteria. Another skin condition, eczema, appears as dry brown or red patches on the skin and is caused by the immune system or allergic reactions. The most common eczema is atopic dermatitis.

Psoriasis is a skin condition characterized by rapid production of cells on the skin’s surface. These lesions appear in the form of scales or patches. Another condition, rosacea, appears as pink patches on the skin. Finally, warts are small skin growths caused by an infection of the human papillomavirus (HPV).

Am I a Good Candidate for Medical Dermatology Services?

All people are ideal candidates for medical dermatology services. If you’ve noticed a skin issue, it’s important to have it diagnosed by an expert sooner rather than later. The sooner a condition is diagnosed and treated, the better the chances of effective treatment. This is particularly vital for potentially cancerous skin lesions.
