Have you noticed a pink, scaly spot on your skin that never seems to go away?
If so, it’s time to visit your dermatologist, as you could be experiencing the first signs of actinic keratoses. Although it’s not dangerous on its own, it’s a warning sign of the potential for skin cancer in the future.
Actinic keratoses are one of the most common issues we see in the dermatology clinics. It’s evidence that the skin has had too much sun exposure. B... 
You’ve been covering up that flat, brown spot on your face for a while now, but will it ever go away? Is it a sunspot or is it something worse?
Many people start to notice darker spots develop on their skin as they age. While some of these spots are a natural part of aging, other spots could be precancerous. If you’ve noticed dark spots surfacing on your face, chest, and arms, you may be dealing with sunspots.
What Are Sunspots?
“Sunspot”... 
Wrinkles. Sunspots. Sun damaged skin.
If you’ve thought about these skin issues (and how to prevent them), than you’ve thought about photoaging.
Many people are concerned with photoaging skin before they even know what it means. In fact, 30-40% of our patients come in to talk to us about photoaging – they just talk about it different terms:
How should I be taking care of my skin?
How do I prevent or treat wrinkles and age spots?
How do I ma... 
We’ve all heard the term “athlete’s foot,” but do you actually know what it is?
Athlete’s foot is a fungal infection on the feet. Think of mold growing on your foot (that’s the basic concept!) and just as mold continues to spread unless you treat it correctly, athlete’s foot continues to grow on your skin.
As the fungus grows, it causes a scaly dermatitis that can itch, sting, and burn. If left untreated, this fungal skin infection can le... 
We’ve all had our share of whiteheads and blackheads.
They seem to pop up out of nowhere, leaving us struggling to make them disappear as quickly as they arrived – but it’s usually not quite that easy. No one wants them, but until you understand what causes whiteheads and blackheads, it’s hard to know how to treat them.
What are whiteheads and what makes them different than blackheads or other types of acne?
More importantly, how do we get rid ...

Do you miss your youthful look?
Sure, you’ve learned some tricks of the trade in the hair and makeup department over the past 20 years, but there’s only so much you can do at home to turn back the clock.
For a while, good concealer and over-the-counter creams did the trick. But now you find yourself wondering how to make your eyes look younger since these products no longer seem to help.
If you look in the mirror and can’t help but notice glaring... 
A non-healing wound can be devastating.
The pain is intense, and the wound is gaping, not to mention, it’s interfering with your life. You can’t work and interact like normal. The pain, appearance, and care of the ulcer is just too much.
Maybe you’ve sought treatment — but it’s just not working.
And when an ulcer isn’t responding to therapy, it may be time to explore the possibility of a less common cause of your non-healing ulceration — ... 
If you are losing your eyebrows, sideburns, or front hairline, you may be dealing with more than just an age-dependent hair loss. You could be facing a dermatological condition called frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA).
Never heard of it? Neither had dermatologists 25 years ago. Many doctors today still mistakenly assume people are facing patterned baldness when they see frontotemporal hair loss, but recent studies are granting us more insight into what ...
