Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Dermatological care with Dr. Lindsay 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. For patients with a personal or family history of skin cancer, or with many moles, Dr. Lindsay PA 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, wearing protective clothing, and avoiding tanning beds can significantly reduce your risk of skin cancer. These are simple steps for lifelong skin health.

What are the ABCDEs of melanoma?

Knowing the ABCDEs—Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Color variation, Diameter greater than a pencil eraser, and Evolving or changing—can empower you to be a partner in early skin cancer detection. By regularly checking your moles for these features, you can help identify potential problems early. Early detection is key to successful treatment. We encourage you to schedule a skin exam with Dr. Lindsay PA if you have any concerns.

What is Mohs surgery, and why is it used?

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

How do you treat chronic conditions like psoriasis or eczema?

We tailor treatment plans for chronic conditions like psoriasis and eczema to each patient's needs. This may involve topical therapies like steroids and moisturizers, phototherapy, and oral medications. In some cases, advanced biologic medications that target the underlying inflammation may be necessary. Our goal is to find the most effective approach to manage your condition and improve your quality of life.

What is an actinic keratosis (AK)?

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

What is rosacea and how is it managed?

Rosacea is a common chronic skin condition causing facial redness, flushing, and sometimes bumps or pimples. Management focuses on preventing flare-ups by identifying and avoiding personal triggers and using a combination of gentle skincare and prescription medications, if needed.
