Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Dermatological care with Dr. Anuj Kunadia:

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 critical role in preventing, detecting, and treating skin cancer, as well as 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. For patients with a personal or family history of skin cancer, or with many moles, Dr. Kunadia may recommend more frequent screenings for early detection.

What is the best way to prevent skin cancer?

Protecting your skin from the sun is key. 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 of skin cancer. Avoiding tanning beds is also important for lifelong skin health.

What is the difference between psoriasis and eczema?

Psoriasis, an autoimmune condition, typically presents as thick, red, scaly plaques. Eczema, often linked to allergies, appears as dry, intensely itchy, red patches. A dermatologist can accurately diagnose and recommend the best treatment.

What are the ABCDEs of melanoma?

The ABCDEs of melanoma—Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Color variation, Diameter larger than a pencil eraser, and Evolving or changing—are important tools for self-monitoring moles. By recognizing these characteristics, you can be an active participant in early detection of skin cancer. Promptly bring any suspicious changes to the attention of your dermatologist for evaluation.

What is Mohs surgery, and why is it used?

Mohs surgery is a highly precise surgical technique used to remove certain skin cancers, most commonly on the face and neck. Its key advantage is that it removes all cancerous cells while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible, leading to a high cure rate and a smaller scar.

Can you treat warts?

Yes, warts are common skin infections caused by a virus. While some resolve on their own, Dr. Kunadia can treat persistent warts with effective in-office procedures like cryotherapy to prevent spreading or pain.

What is a skin biopsy?

A skin biopsy is a simple, quick in-office procedure. Dr. Kunadia will numb the area and remove a small skin sample, which is then sent to a lab for microscopic examination to provide a definitive diagnosis.
