Medical Dermatology

What is Medical Dermatology?

At Dermatology Associates of Concord, medical dermatology is the primary focus of our practice. It includes a detailed evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment for all kinds of skin diseases, including skin cancer (melanoma).

During your appointment, a medical dermatologist will thoroughly evaluate your skin's appearance, noting what can be treated with medicine, surgery, or other specialized therapies we offer.

When to See a Medical Dermatologist

You should consult a medical dermatologist at the first sign of any type of serious skin condition. The board-certified doctors at Dermatology Associates of Concord are experts who understand and treat a wide range of skin diseases affecting people of all ages.

Consult one of our dermatologists if you notice changes in the shape, texture, size, or color of a mole or new skin growth, including areas of skin that become painful, swollen, itchy, or bleeding.

Patches of dry, itchy skin should be examined by a dermatologist, too, as these can be a sign of allergies. Severe acne can also be effectively treated with medication and medical-grade skin care products.
