What is medical dermatology and when do you need it?

Medical dermatology addresses disease and dysfunction of the skin, hair, nails, and mucous membranes. Unlike cosmetic dermatology (which addresses appearance), medical dermatology treats conditions that impact health, function, and quality of life.

Common conditions treated by medical dermatology include:

If you have a skin condition causing itching, pain, visible symptoms, or health concerns, medical dermatology evaluation is essential. Board-certified dermatologists like Dr. Snyder have specialized training to diagnose and treat these conditions effectively.

What is cosmetic dermatology and aesthetic medicine?

Cosmetic dermatology focuses on improving the appearance of skin, addressing signs of aging, and enhancing natural beauty through non-surgical and minimally-invasive treatments. Unlike medical dermatology, cosmetic treatments are elective and designed to help you look your best.

Cosmetic dermatology addresses:

Cosmetic treatments range from simple (skincare and facials) to advanced (laser resurfacing, injectables, body contouring). Dr. Snyder customizes your aesthetic plan based on your goals, aging pattern, and desired results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Medical dermatology treats disease and dysfunction of the skin (acne, eczema, psoriasis, skin cancer, infections, etc.). These conditions impact health, function, and quality of life. Cosmetic dermatology addresses appearance and signs of aging through elective treatments (Botox, fillers, laser resurfacing, etc.). Both are important. Many patients need both medical and cosmetic care.

Board-certified dermatologists have 3+ years of specialized training in diagnosing and treating skin conditions beyond what general practitioners receive. This specialized training allows us to recognize subtle presentations of serious conditions, manage complex cases, and deliver both medical and cosmetic procedures safely. For skin cancer diagnosis and treatment, melanoma surveillance, and complex conditions, board-certified dermatology expertise is essential.

Different treatments address different aging mechanisms. During your consultation, Dr. Snyder assesses your specific aging pattern—wrinkles, volume loss, skin laxity, texture issues, etc.—and recommends treatments most likely to achieve your goals. Sometimes a single treatment is ideal; often a combination approach yields the best results. We discuss options, pros/cons, cost, and realistic outcomes so you can make an informed decision.

Medical dermatology for diagnosed skin conditions is often covered by insurance. Cosmetic treatments are elective and typically not covered. We’ll review your insurance coverage and discuss payment options during your consultation. Many patients choose to combine insurance-covered medical treatments with out-of-pocket cosmetic treatments for comprehensive skin care.

Tell Dr. Snyder about your skin sensitivity and previous reactions. He’ll examine your skin carefully, recommend a treatment plan appropriate for sensitive skin, and potentially do patch testing before full treatment. Many aesthetic treatments have multiple options—if one isn’t suitable, we can discuss alternatives. Your safety and satisfaction are priorities.

Absolutely. In fact, many patients benefit from combining medical treatment (for a skin condition like acne or rosacea) with cosmetic treatment (for scarring or other cosmetic concerns). Dr. Snyder will coordinate these carefully to ensure they work together safely and effectively.

Results depend on the treatment. Botox and fillers require maintenance treatments every 3-6 months. Laser treatments may require yearly or occasional maintenance. Surgical treatments like CoolSculpting or EMSculpt NEO produce long-lasting results if you maintain weight and fitness. Skincare, sun protection, and healthy lifestyle support all aesthetic results. Dr. Snyder will discuss a personalized maintenance plan during your consultation.
