- Persistent rashes, itching, or skin irritation
- Acne that does not improve with over-the-counter treatments
- Chronic conditions such as eczema or psoriasis
- Hair loss, scalp issues, or nail abnormalities
- Suspicious growths, sores that won’t heal, or changes in skin color or texture
Early evaluation is especially important for skin cancer detection and long-term disease management.
FAQs About Pain Medicine
Q1: Do I need a referral to see a dermatologist?
A1: Referral requirements depend on your insurance plan. PPO plans often allow direct access, while HMO plans may require a referral from your primary care provider.
Q2: How often should I have a skin cancer screening?
A2: Most adults benefit from an annual full-body skin exam, especially those with a history of sun exposure, fair skin, or a family history of skin cancer. Your dermatologist may recommend more frequent visits based on risk factors.
Q3: Can dermatologists treat both medical and cosmetic concerns?
A3: Yes. Dermatologists manage medical skin conditions and may also address cosmetic concerns that impact skin health and confidence, depending on services offered at your location.
