Dermatology

A dermatologist diagnoses and treats your skin, hair, and nails. As the largest and most visible organ of your body, your skin is the barrier that protects it from outside elements.

Along with your hair and nails, your skin is exposed to many toxins and environmental attacks. As a result, this barrier is vulnerable to many possible abnormalities and disorders.

Your doctor works to protect your skin while providing cosmetic procedures to address your skin concerns—one of the key areas of dermatologists’ training in diagnosing and treating skin cancers.

While many other disorders are possible, the predominance and potential seriousness of skin cancer mean that you should rely on the best dermatology specialists for the health of your entire family.

Taking care of your insides and skin increases your chances of staying healthy, protected, and intense as you move through each stage of your life. Our dermatologists in Downtown Brooklyn work with you to keep your skin as healthy as possible.
