When should I see a dermatologist?
Seek out a dermatologist any time you notice an alteration in the health or appearance of your skin. That could mean the development of a new mole, rash, or bouts of itchiness. In general, see a dermatologist when:
- A new mole forms or an existing mole changes in appearance
- Hair is lost at an increased rate
- Skin chronically itches
- Scars do not fade
- Hives or rashes won't heal
- Ingrown nails and warts grown
- Skin irritation doesn't subside
Skin is the human body’s largest organ, yet it doesn’t receive the same attention as others like the heart or lungs. Skin issues may even be warning signs for other medical complications, so it’s important to keep an eye on any changes to your body. If something seems off, immediately contact a doctor.

Common skin questions
Many people have questions when it comes to their skincare. The experts at Skiin are here to answer them. Here are a few inquiries we often hear:
- How does age affect the skin?
- As you age, your skin loses fat content. The skin becomes thinner, making its appearance less supple than during younger years. Veins become more pronounced and wrinkles develop. Exposure to sunlight increases the aging process – sunscreen and protective clothing are the best defenses.
- How can I protect my skin against the natural aging process?
- A healthy diet and lifestyle are paramount in protecting your skin. Eat well-rounded meals, and if you smoke or drink alcohol on a regular basis, cut down or eliminate them altogether. Regular exercise keeps your entire body healthy, including your skin. Use sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and keep to the shade whenever possible. Drink plenty of water and make sure to thoroughly wash every day.
- Can makeup damage skin?
- Yes, the excessive use of makeup can have negative consequences when it comes to your skin’s vitality. If you use makeup, make sure to wash your face every night with gentle soap and apply moisturizer before bed.
- What are common signs of skin cancer?
- Skin cancer presents itself in many different ways. It all depends on the person. However, there are several common signs to keep an eye out for.
- Newly formed spots or moles
- Changes in size, shape, or color of existing spots or moles
- Itchy or painful patches of skin
- Sores or rashes that do not heal
- Rough, scaly areas
- Warts or wart-like growths

- What causes hair loss?
- Hair loss is often a hereditary trait, but it can also be caused by underlying medical conditions. Hair loss is most common among men and is often a normal part of getting older. Excessive shampooing and hair treatments like perms, coloring, and bleaching also contribute to thinning hair.
