Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Dermatological care with Dr. Cyrus PA:

What is a Dermatologist?

A dermatologist is a medical doctor specializing in diagnosing and treating conditions of the skin, hair, and nails. They play a vital role in preventing and detecting skin cancer, and managing a wide range of skin diseases.

How often should I get a full-body skin exam?

For average-risk individuals, an annual skin exam is recommended as a vital preventive measure. However, for patients with a personal or family history of skin cancer, or with many moles, Dr. Cyrus PA may recommend more frequent screenings for early detection.

What is the best way to prevent skin cancer?

Protecting your skin from sun damage is key to preventing skin cancer. Simple habits like daily broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30+, seeking shade during peak sun hours, and wearing protective clothing can significantly reduce your risk. Avoiding tanning beds is also crucial for long-term skin health.

How can I prevent my eczema from flaring up?

Managing eczema proactively is key. Daily moisturizing with a thick, fragrance-free cream, avoiding triggers like harsh soaps or allergens, and promptly using prescribed medications from Dr. Cyrus PA at the first sign of a flare can prevent worsening.

What is Mohs surgery, and why is it used?

Mohs surgery is a highly precise surgical technique used to remove certain types of skin cancer, primarily on the face and neck. It's key advantage is that it precisely removes all cancerous cells while minimizing the removal of healthy tissue, resulting in the highest cure rate and smallest possible scar.

What is the difference between psoriasis and eczema?

Psoriasis, an autoimmune condition, typically presents as thick, red, scaly plaques. Eczema, often linked to allergies, typically manifests as dry, intensely itchy, red patches. A dermatologist's accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate treatment.

What is an actinic keratosis (AK)?

Actinic keratosis (AK) is a pre-cancerous skin growth often caused by sun exposure, appearing as rough, sandpaper-like patches. Treating AKs is important, as a small percentage can develop into squamous cell carcinoma if left untreated.

My child has a rash. When should we see a dermatologist?

While many childhood rashes are minor, it's important to see a dermatologist if the rash is persistent, spreading, painful, itchy, or accompanied by a fever. Conditions like eczema, molluscum, and warts are common pediatric concerns that a dermatologist can effectively diagnose and treat.
