Services

The Pediatric Dermatology team takes a multidisciplinary approach to care. Some of the diagnoses we typically see include:

  • Acne: A common skin condition that causes pimples and blackheads, usually on the face, chest or back.
  • Alopecia: A condition where hair falls out, sometimes in patches, leading to hair loss.
  • Atopic Dermatitis: Also known as eczema, this causes dry, itchy and red skin, often in children.
  • Congenital Skin Disorders: Skin conditions that a baby is born with, like birthmarks or other skin irregularities.
  • Genetic Skin Disorders: Skin conditions passed down from parents, caused by changes in genes.
  • Hair Loss: The thinning or falling out of hair, which can happen for different reasons, including health issues.
  • Hemangiomas: Raised red birthmarks made up of blood vessels that usually appear in babies and often shrink over time.
  • Molluscum: A skin infection that causes small, painless bumps, often found on children.
  • Psoriasis: A skin condition where red, scaly patches develop, commonly on the scalp, elbows or knees.
  • Warts: Small, rough skin growths caused by a virus, often appearing on the hands or feet.
