Question 1

i had a skin mark checked by a dermathologist a couple of years ago: ok, nothing to worry. but since it has grow bigger, should i check it again?

Accepted Answer

Yes: No physician's opinion is 100% and a melanoma may arise de novo in a benign lesion. Perhaps you were told to come back if the lesion changes in any case.

Question 2

does a dermotologist attends ganital parts of the body?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Most dermatologists will treat any part of the body, and the genitals are a common area for skin conditions that are treated by dermatologists.

Question 3

may my dermatoligist perscribe me microdermabrasion so i can use it at home? i have insurance.

Accepted Answer

You don't need it: Microdermabrasion is a process by which layers of skin are removed. It may reveal the fresher, younger, newer skin, but this skin requires much more protection now than ever before.
I don't think that someone your age would benefit for microdermabrasion,  quite the contrary.
Good luck from nyc.

Question 4

i wanna see a dermatologist ?

Accepted Answer

They're out there: One can go to see a dermatologist without a referral unless one has a restrictive insurance plan such as an HMO or a POS plan that requires a referral. If one has a PPO plan, a referral is almost never needed unless one has a rare, restrictive PPO plan that requires a referral. For better insurance coverage, one should see a dermatologist inside her insurance plan network.

Question 5

how do dermatoligists treat warts?

Accepted Answer

Lots of ways: Get it treated!  you can use the liquid nitrogen, liquid nitrous oxide (this is what i like to use), topical acids, dermal scraping. You can also try oral Cimetidine (400 mg three times a day for 12-16 weeks). This is very safe and had the side effect of getting rid of warts for many people of adult size and weight (japma november 1, 1995 vol. 85 no. 11 717-718 ).

Question 6

consult dermatologist online free?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: If you have a skin problem it is helpful to see your doctor and allow the physical exam with the history make a proper diagnosis.  At that point you will also receive treatment and that is far better than using online help.  Often in those situations they are trying to sell you something.

Question 7

what to expect at the dermatologist?

Accepted Answer

Full body exam: Ideally, if you do not have any particular problem, your dermatologist should examine your entire body to see if anything is abnormal.

Question 8

what exactly does a dermatologist do?

Accepted Answer

Dermatologists: diagnose and treat conditions involving the skin/nails.

Question 9

when should you go to a dermatologist?

Accepted Answer

For skin problems: Dermatologists specialize in skin diseases. Often, your primary care doctor can make the diagnosis and you won't have to wait 3 months for an appointment. If you have a new skin issue, one that isn't getting better, one that's getting worse, or you see a change in a mole, then consider calling your primary doctor or dermatologist.
