LENTIGINES

SAY GOODBYE TO BROWN SPOTS

Lentigines are small light brown spots that occur in sun exposed areas, like the back of the hands or face, and tend to increase in number with age. They are harmless, but must be differentiated from moles and skin cancers.

Prevention of lentigines begins with photoprotection from an early age. Treatment options for cosmetic purposes include topical medications, cryosurgery (freezing), trichloroacetic acid, laser, and intense pulsed light.

To learn more about lentigines, visit the American Osteopathic College of Dermatology website.

ROSACEA

Rosacea is a common skin disease that causes redness and red pimple-like breakouts on the face. It begins with a tendency toward “flushing and blushing” and may then progress to a persistent redness of the central face.

PSORIASIS

Psoriasis is a chronic skin disorder characterized by raised lesions with silvery scale that most often occur on the scalp, elbows, knees and lower back. It can range from a very mild, hardly noticeable rash to a severe eruption that covers large areas of the body.

PATCH TESTING

Patch testing is used for patients with dermatitis to find out whether substances coming into contact with the skin are causing or aggravating their condition.
