Most people hear the word dermatologist and think they only treat skin conditions or diseases.  Today, we realize that is not the case.  Dermatologists have the education, expertise and experience to safely and effectively reduce the signs of aging. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends that consumers ask the following questions before undergoing any cosmetic procedure

[checklist icon=”fa-times-circle” iconcolor=”” circle=”” circlecolor=”#65c2f0″ size=”small” class=”” id=””][li_item icon=”fa-times-circle-o”]What are the doctor’s credentials and is he or she board-certified?   Make sure you seek a dermatologist that is board-certified with extensive education, training and experience in keeping the skin healthy.[/li_item][li_item icon=”fa-times-circle-o”]>How many of these particular cosmetic dermatology procedures has the physician performed?  No matter what type of procedure you are having done, you want a doctor that performs the procedure regularly.  Ask for references to see before and after photos.
[/li_item][li_item icon=”fa-times-circle-o”]What result can I expect and are there any risks?   Results depend largely on the skill and experience of the physician performing the procedure.  A dermatologist can tell you if the procedure will deliver the desired results, based on the condition of your skin as well as your age and health.[/li_item][/checklist]

Remember, undergoing a cosmetic procedure is about your health and safety,  not just about your appearance.  A dermatologist has the medical training and experience required to keep skin healthy and youthful-looking.
