Medical Skin Care / Dermatology

At Park City Dermatology we offer comprehensive medical dermatology care.  Some of our most commonly requested medical services are explained below.

SKIN CANCER SCREENINGS

At Park City Dermatology we offer skin cancer screenings for early detection and proper treatment of pre-cancers and skin cancers.  It is recommended by the American Academy of Dermatology and the Skin Cancer Foundation that most adults have at least an annual skin cancer screening exam with a dermatologist. Some people may benefit from more frequent screening if they have a history of pre-cancer or skin cancer or are immunocompromised. 

A skin cancer screening performed by a dermatologist is covered by most health plans.  When you call Park City Dermatology to schedule your screening, please verify that your insurance plan is taken.

Studies have shown that dermatologists have the highest rate of early melanoma detection compared to other healthcare providers.

Skin cancer screenings are important for several reasons:

Early Detection: Regular screenings can help detect skin cancer at an early stage when it's most treatable. Early detection often leads to better outcomes and a higher chance of cure.

Prevention: Screenings can identify precancerous lesions or abnormal moles that may develop into skin cancer if left untreated. Taking preventive treatment measures based on these findings can reduce the risk of skin cancer development.

Identify Risk: Individuals with a history of sun exposure, family history of skin cancer, or other risk factors may benefit from regular screenings. Identifying those at a higher risk allows for more proactive monitoring and management.

Education: Skin cancer screenings provide an opportunity for healthcare professionals to educate individuals about the importance of sun protection, skin self-examinations, and other preventive measures such as safe and proper sun block use.
