DISCOVER BASED ON COMPLAINTS

What is the most common complaint?

Itching

Itching that persists, worsens at night, or is accompanied by a rash may require evaluation.

Redness

Recurrent redness on the face or body can be associated with various dermatological causes.

Spots & Pigmentation

Newly developing or changing spots may be related to melasma, sun damage, or other causes.

Changes in Moles

Changes such as asymmetry, color changes, rapid growth, or bleeding are significant.

Hair Loss

The type and duration of hair loss, along with any accompanying scalp findings, are evaluated together.

Nail Problems

Changes in color, shape, thickness, and surface can occur for various reasons.

DERMATOLOGICAL EVALUATION

In dermatology, the correct approach is to evaluate not only the visible lesion but also the duration, extent, accompanying findings, and skin type of the condition.

DERMATOLOGICAL EVALUATION

When should you consult a dermatologist?

Dermatological evaluation may be necessary for newly occurring, rapidly changing, recurrent, or long-standing skin, hair, and nail complaints. Evaluation is particularly important if there are signs such as changes in the appearance of the lesion, bleeding, rapid growth, significant pain, or itching.
