Medical vs. cosmetic dermatology

Dermatologists handle two kinds of visits. Medical dermatology covers skin checks, changing moles, acne, eczema, psoriasis, and rashes; cosmetic dermatology covers lasers, injectables, and skin-quality treatments. Most practices above do both, but book the right visit type, and see a dermatologist promptly for any mole that is changing in size, shape, or colour, a spot that bleeds or won't heal, or a new growth. Those are screening visits, not cosmetic consultations, and they should never wait behind one.
