Dermatology

Dermatologists treat skin conditions.

As people age, they are at risk of getting skin cancer. This is especially true if they have spent many days playing in the sun without applying sunscreen.

I’ve started a new habit of seeing a dermatologist once a year.

At my most recent visit, my dermatologist identified a couple of “pre-cancerous” spots. Not wanting to develop skin cancer, I asked him to remove the spots by freezing them. While a 2-week skin cream could be applied instead, I opted for the quick removal approach.

I’m happy to say that I’ve recovered completely!

Be proactive. Visit dermatologists!
