What it involves
A skin consultation is an appointment with a doctor, often a dermatologist, to assess a skin, hair or nail problem. The doctor asks about your symptoms and history, examines the skin, sometimes with a magnifying instrument, and discusses what may be causing it and what treatment or tests might help.
Who it is for
It is for people with conditions such as acne, eczema, rashes, itching, moles, or changes in the skin or nails. A general doctor can assess many skin problems, and a dermatologist is a doctor who has specialised in skin conditions.
How long it usually takes
Consultations vary in length, often from fifteen minutes to half an hour. If a sample is taken, results may take longer.
What to expect
You may be asked to undress the area to be seen. The doctor may photograph the skin, take a small sample for the laboratory or suggest a treatment plan. You can ask about how long treatment might take and what to watch for.
Aftercare
Follow the plan you are given and ask if anything is unclear. Report side effects. Book a review if advised, as skin conditions often need adjustment over time.
When to seek it
See a doctor for a rash that does not settle, a skin problem that affects daily life, a mole that is changing in size, shape or colour, or a sore that does not heal.
What affects the cost
Cost depends on the doctor's specialism, the length of the consultation, any laboratory tests or procedures and follow-up visits. HealthNaro shows a price only where a clinic has supplied a figure with a source and date.
