Acne

Acne results when tiny glands become clogged which in turn cause swelling and pimples on the skin's surface. This can occur anywhere on the skin where there are hair follicles below the surface, including the face, back, and neck. Acne affects both adults and teenagers.

Eczema

This is a collective term for a condition that causes the skin to become red, itchy, and inflamed. It can be treated by a variety of medical conditions that result in the skin being irritated or inflamed. The most common type of eczema is known as atopic eczema which usually develops in early childhood and is more common in people who have a family history of the condition.

Skin Cancer

Skin cancer refers to the abnormal, uncontrolled growth of skin cells and is almost always curable if detected and treated early.

All skin cancers appear to be related to sun exposure. The most common skin cancers are:
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): Tends to be slowly growing and frequently appears as a pinkish, translucent, pearly 'pimple' that does not go away on sun damaged skin. It can also look like a scaly patch or resemble a scar.

Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): Tends to be slowly growing and frequently appears as a pinkish, translucent, pearly 'pimple' that does not go away on sun damaged skin. It can also look like a scaly patch or resemble a scar.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Grows more rapidly than BCC. It presents as an enlarging scaly nodule with poorly defined borders that may ulcerate.

Malignant Melanoma: It may spread to the lymph nodes, lung, liver, brain and other skin areas if not discovered and removed surgically in time. Often, the patient will present a change in an existing mole or recognize a new pigmented lesion, which often shows irregular borders, varied colors and recent enlargement.

Abnormal Moles

An abnormal or atypical mole is also known as dysplastic nevus. They are larger than common moles, irregular, and have unclear borders.
