Dermatology Department

Dermatology is the branch of medicine that focuses on diagnosing, treating, and managing conditions related to the skin, hair, and nails. As the largest organ of the body, the skin plays a crucial role in protecting against environmental factors, regulating temperature, and preventing infections.

In addition to medical treatments, dermatologists often provide cosmetic procedures, including anti-aging treatments, laser therapy, and solutions for aesthetic skin concerns like scars, wrinkles, and pigmentation disorders. The field of dermatology blends both medical and cosmetic expertise to help patients maintain healthy skin and address various dermatologic concerns.

• Acne – Common in both teens and adults, acne involves clogged pores, pimples, and can sometimes result in scarring.

• Eczema and Dermatitis – These are inflammatory skin conditions that cause itching, redness, and irritation. Eczema can be chronic and may flare up periodically.
• Psoriasis – A chronic autoimmune condition that leads to the rapid buildup of skin cells, resulting in scaling and red patches.
• Skin Cancer – Dermatologists play a key role in detecting skin cancers like melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma, through regular skin exams and biopsies.
• Rosacea – A condition characterized by facial redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes small red bumps
• Hair Disorders – Dermatology also includes the treatment of hair loss (alopecia), dandruff, and other scalp conditions.
