What is the difference between a dermatologist and a skin specialist?

A dermatologist is a medical doctor specializing in diagnosing and treating conditions related to the skin, hair, and nails. With years of medical training, dermatologists can address complex issues like eczema, psoriasis, skin cancer, and acne. They also perform advanced procedures, such as skin biopsies, laser treatments, and surgeries, offering both medical and cosmetic solutions.

On the other hand, a skin specialist is a broader term that can include dermatologists and professionals offering skincare advice or cosmetic treatments. Skin specialists may focus on enhancing skin health and appearance through treatments like facials, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion but may lack the medical training of a certified dermatologist.
