Patients often ask, “When is the best time to get a skin exam?” This depends on each individual person’s skin needs, skin type, and medical history. At PFRANKMD, we recommend visiting your dermatologist once a year to get a good baseline read on spots that may require monitoring or further treatment. Patients with personal and family history of skin cancer or history of atypical moles may require closer monitoring. It is NOT recommended to schedule a skin exam if your skin is tan, as everything may appear darker. Wait until you are a bit closer to your baseline color to schedule your visit. A full body skin exam is one of the simplest and most effective tools in the early detection of skin cancer or other skin diseases. In cases of benign and cosmetic spots on the skin, PFRANKMD offers cutting edge laser technology that may eliminate these spots and improve the overall health of the skin. Call (212) 327-2919 to schedule a consultation for a thorough examination of your skin – from the top of your scalp to the bottoms of your feet. • PFRANKMD The Most Cutting-Edge Technologies Customized Signature Treatments Only Licensed Healthcare Professionals • #skincheck #skinexam #skin #skincare #skincaretips #skinhealth #skintips #skintreatment #pfrankmd
