What happens at a dermatology appointment?
The dermatologist looks closely at the affected skin, and often a careful look is enough to make a diagnosis. You’ll be asked how long the problem has lasted, which creams or products you’ve tried, and whether anyone in your family has something similar, since some skin conditions run in families.
If your concern is on your face or nails, come without make-up or nail polish, and bring the products you’ve been using. For some conditions, hair loss in particular, the doctor may request blood tests from the on-site laboratory to look for a cause.
Medical dermatology or the cosmetics and laser centre?
The dermatology clinic focuses on diagnosing and treating skin disease. If your goal is cosmetic, such as laser sessions or improving the look of your skin, the cosmetics and laser centre page explains what is offered there. If you’re not sure which you need, the doctor can assess your skin first and suggest the best route.
Common questions
When is a skin problem an emergency?
Call 997 or go straight to the nearest hospital emergency department if you develop a widespread rash with fever, blistering or peeling skin, sores in the mouth or eyes, or swelling of the face and lips with difficulty breathing. These signs need urgent medical care.
Should I worry about a mole?
Most moles are harmless. See a dermatologist if a mole changes in size, shape or colour, bleeds or itches for no reason, or looks different from your other moles. An early check either reassures you or picks up something that needs follow-up.
Is hair loss worth seeing a doctor about?
Losing some hair every day is normal. Book a visit if you notice more shedding than usual for several weeks, clear thinning or bald patches. Hair loss can be linked to stress, low iron or thyroid problems, among other causes, and an assessment helps find the reason.
