Cosmetic Dermatology vs Medical Dermatology
A dermatologist is a skin care professional who focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of skin conditions. When comparing medical dermatology and cosmetic dermatology, both types provide patients with treatments to improve the skin’s overall health and appearance. A medical dermatologist focuses on treating medical conditions that effect the skin’s health and appearance such as acne, moles, skin cancer, etc. While a cosmetic dermatologist focuses on addressing the patient’s desire to improve their skin’s appearance. This can include treating signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin pigmentation, and enhancing facial features.

MICRONEEDLING
Microneedling is based on the use of tiny needles to create micro-channels through the epidermis and into the dermis (deep skin layers). The process stimulates your skin’s natural ability to heal itself and in the process produces collagen and elastin. This repair process begins almost immediately and results in a thicker dermis and softened wrinkles and scars. Microneedling is used to treat and improve conditions like acne scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, loose skin, skin texture, pore size, brown spots, stretch marks and pigment issues. Microneedling can be safely repeated every four to six weeks.
