Reasons to See a Dermatologist
Many people believe that everything dealing with the skin or hair is a vanity, and a visit to the dermatologist is a luxury and not a major need. Do not think that the skin is invincible either because it is not. You should visit an Atlanta Dermatology specialist when you notice any of these situations:
You have a mole that is obviously growing. Freckles, moles, it doesn’t matter. And no matter where the mole is (sometimes people do not give importance to the moles that are not easily seen, like the soles of the feet, between the toes, in the lower back, etc.). And if a patch of dry skin appears enhanced when regular body cream is applied, be sure to mention it when seeking consultation. Not all dermatologists apply an immediate treatment, but some will do so from time to time, especially if you're one day away from your wedding and such. Most will have the patient apply cortisone to reduce inflammation and redness. This is especially functional with cystic grains, which can take up to three weeks to disappear with usual treatment (and patience, of course).
Your cheeks turn red and stay that way! There are people who naturally have red cheeks, but if you notice it more so, or when you drink red wine, eat spicy foods, perform vigorous exercise or you are exposed to heat, it is possible that you have atopic dermatitis or rosacea. Both conditions have increased in recent decades and are symptomatic of delicate skin that needs special care. However, the diagnosis must be carried out by a professional at Steele Dermatology. There is no cure because it is a type of skin rash and is not a disease itself, but can be kept under control with specific treatment. The change is practically magnificent.
If your skin has changed 180 degrees in a matter of days, see a professional. This change can be from a rough dry skin to an oil-based skin (or vice versa). The most noticeable changes usually occur during a person’s twenties, but there is no age concerning acne. If you have a hormone imbalance or you’re taking a hormone supplement, do not hesitate to ask for dermatological medical advice.
