Dermatology FAQs
The most common skin conditions treated by dermatology specialists include contact dermatitis, acne, actinic keratoses, skin cysts, and benign neoplasms of the skin. However, dermatology Consultants can treat all manner of skin conditions and issues.
You may have been referred to a dermatology specialist by your GP due to a condition affecting your hair, skin, or nails that they cannot diagnose or treat. This can range from eczema and rashes to severe acne or a growing mole.
Dermatology specialists are able to provide detailed diagnoses and are experienced in managing complex skin conditions and providing specific treatment. So, if you’ve been referred to a dermatologist by your GP, you’re in good hands.
If you are suffering from persistent or chronic skin conditions (like eczema or psoriasis), irritation, or changing moles and growths, you may wish to visit a dermatology specialist.
Booking an appointment with a dermatology Consultant is helpful if you encounter unexplained hair loss, skin allergies, rashes, severe acne, or if you have concerns about skin cancer and the condition of your skin. However, you should always seek advice from your GP if you are unsure about getting treatment or a diagnosis.
The length of an appointment with a dermatology Consultant varies based on your health needs and diagnosis process. Typically, an initial consultation takes between 15 and 30 minutes.
Then, the ongoing course of treatment may take weeks or months, depending on the complexity of your condition and how you respond to the proposed treatment. As expected, more complex dermatological conditions will likely require a higher level of treatment and more frequent visits to a dermatology specialist.
When you first visit a dermatological Consultant, you will have your medical history reviewed by a friendly professional, who will ask questions about your skin, your concerns, and your current lifestyle, habits, product usage, and more. This is to build up an accurate profile to determine the diagnosis and most appropriate treatment plan.
The dermatology specialist is also likely to perform an inspection of the affected area, potentially examining moles. As the examination is taking place, you are free to ask your dermatology specialist questions about the process, which they will answer in simple terms.
