Who is a dermatologist?

Your skin is your body's largest organ, and keeping it healthy is crucial. Dermatologists are medical experts dedicated to improving the health of your skin, hair, and nails. They undergo years of rigorous training, encompassing medical school, residency, and potentially a fellowship, to become diagnosticians and treatment providers for various conditions. These conditions can be anything from acne and eczema to severe issues like skin cancer and hair loss.


Dermatologists don't just rely on consultations; they may perform specialized procedures like biopsies, mole removal, and even laser surgery. Additionally, some dermatologists focus on specific areas within the field, like pediatric dermatology for children's skin concerns or cosmetic dermatology for those seeking treatments for scars or signs of aging.


If you notice changes in a mole's size, color, or shape, have a persistent rash, or experience hair loss, it's a good idea to schedule an appointment with a dermatologist. To prepare for your first visit, note your concerns, any recent health changes, family medical history, and a record of symptoms. Wearing loose clothing is helpful for an easy examination. By being prepared and working together with your dermatologist, you can ensure the health and beauty of your skin, hair, and nails.


Dermatology procedures can be very complex and require significant time and effort. They can also be very costly. That's why checking if your dermatologist accepts your insurance plan is essential, as it can help save you a lot. If you don't have insurance or want to change plans, consider looking for a Cigna dermatologist near you.


Cosmetic dermatology procedures

Cosmetic dermatology refers to a subspecialty of dermatology. It includes services such as:


  • Botox injections: Injecting the botulinum toxin into the skin eliminates the appearance of wrinkles. It releases acetylcholine, a chemical responsible for the contraction of facial muscles, into the skin.
  • Dermal fillers aim to boost the skin's youthful appearance. They are injected into lines, hollows, or wrinkles in the face and have an almost immediate volumizing effect. Multiple types of dermal fillers are available, including collagen wrinkle fillers, hyaluronic acid fillers, synthetic wrinkle fillers, and autologous wrinkle fillers (fillers made from a patient's own fat or blood). 
  • Exfoliating treatments work by removing dead skin cells, which can otherwise build up on the skin's surface and lead to certain problems. Some types of exfoliating treatments are physical exfoliation, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and laser skin treatment.
  • Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy: Light beams of different and filtered wavelengths can stimulate collagen production when applied to the skin. Experts advise IPL to manage small moles, sunspots, tiny vascular spiders, wrinkles, and expression lines.
  • Laser hair removal: This procedure employs a concentrated laser to damage hair follicles. This delays future hair growth for an extended period but does not guarantee permanent hair removal.
  • Tattoo removal: Many dermatologists use lasers to remove tattoos. This procedure is more efficient and safe.
  • Non-invasive fat removal: Sometimes, diet and exercise cannot remove some pockets of fat in the body. This procedure aims to eliminate that stubborn fat. The dermatologist uses heat, cold, ultrasound waves, or injections to kill targeted fat cells, resulting in permanent reduction.
