Does area matter? Like I could go to beverly hills compared to my local place. What kind of experience should I look for and how many years? I'm a teen w/ acne and acne scars.. I have suffered it for 8 years now...How do you choose the best dermatologist?
Generally I would trust the opinion of my own doctor to refer me to who he/she feels is the 'best' - if you don't have a real doctor to do that - ask around -
If you go and aren't happy with the doctor don't go back.How do you choose the best dermatologist?
get on the internet and do some research.

Is it better to see a dermatologist or go to a spa for the care of my skin?
I am 27 yrs old. I work at an automotive shop and live by the water, so there is a lot of humidity. I'm a single mom of 4 kids, so I have signs of not enough rest. My pores from my face are getting huge, I get a lot of white/blk heads, my dark circles are always there. I wanted to start getting facials, but I don't know if that's just a waste of my money, or should I just see a dermatologist. I don't know which one is worth my hard earned money, and which one will work. I'm tired of these huge pores!!!! I've tried a couple of regular brands but nothing seems to work on my face....I want a smooth face again!!!! I am fair skinned and I just started tanning, and I know it's unhealthy, but that's why I don't know which one to go with. The tanning also cause my pores to get huge.Is it better to see a dermatologist or go to a spa for the care of my skin?
I'm a medical esthetician in Florida and have battled with my own skin with Derms and Spa's before being a part of the field. To be honest Derm's majority of the time want to directly head for drastic and abrasive and or medication when it comes to a skin condition. If you go to a Spa, please go to a Licensed Medical Spa that a physician runs and or owns. (Just ask them when you call to make the Appt.) There you will have more options as far as regular maintenance facials, microderm tx and or chemical peels that will significantly make differences in pore size and texture of your skin. These treatments are also more affordable and less abrasive than doing something through a derm office. Also, if they are licensed under a physician you can ask about the OBAGI system. Which is excellent for sun damaged, chemically exposed or just clogged problematic skin. This system is an all around skin type miracle worker. It is somewhat of a process to go through because it takes a full 18 wks to go through the whole system....but absolutely worth it. I have seen dramatic results in every patient whose been on the system. It has retin A and hydriquinone in the system. Let me know how you progress. Good LuckIs it better to see a dermatologist or go to a spa for the care of my skin?
i would see an esthitition, they are very knowledgable in skin care and can reccomend a daily routine. Schedule a facial somewhere, they are less expensive more pampering, and you can visit one often. It doesnt sound like you need medication like a dermatoligist can prescribe. you just need some advice and a little maintnance
well would you go to a vet to have your sex checked, go to the doc., i was there today and had a sun cancer removed from my arm, to many surfing days in the sun when i was younger
Go to the dermatologist first. She what he/she says and they may be able to give you medicine or the information to make your skin look great. Then ask the Dr. if you should go to a spa to get the extra. Dermatologist will give you the best because they are Dr's. Good luck!!!~~~~~~~~~~
Go to the dermatologist, then if you need it they can recommend a facialist.
Just invest in an amazing regime - I started to use the re9 regime last fall (It's like a mini facial twice a day) instantly my skin showed drastic results. I also suffer (I have 3 kids) dark circles due to being tired and anemia the cream in the regime helps. I'd invest in something like this instead of doing both.
A spa upkeep and a MD (unless you have acne) may just put you on creams with a lot of chemicals.
Spa's are only short lived treatments, go and see a doctor or dermatologist and drink gallons of water. Good luck
Either one will tell you to stop tanning, and to wear more sunscreen. Are there any unusual bumps or uneven freckles on your face? It sounds like you have oily skin from the pores and getting white and blackheads. First, you need to care for your skin - cleanse and moisturize your skin, and use an oily skin care product (whichever one you want). Cleanse before you go to be at night, and early in the morning when you wake up. Use a clay mask once a week to help with the oiliness. If you have any unusual skin problems, see the doctor. If you want to feel special, go to a spa and have a facial. If you have any problems with your skin, talk to them. They'll be able to guide you. Remember, no tanning!
Derematologist. A spa is pretty routine, so a dermatologist can help you better as an individual and what's right for you.

How can I remove acne/ pimple scars w/o going to the dermatologist/ facial salon? What capsules should I take?
What vitamins/medicines should I take to let the scars fade?How can I remove acne/ pimple scars w/o going to the dermatologist/ facial salon? What capsules should I take?
break open vitamin e capsules and rub that over the affected area. and buy some maderma and apply it as often as needed. don't get impatient and give up, you obviously won't see immediate results, but you WILL get results and it will definitely be worth it.How can I remove acne/ pimple scars w/o going to the dermatologist/ facial salon?

Try using Acne complex it helped my sister. She had to use it about for 2 months to see the differece. Hope it helps
An useful remedy for pimples is zinc. Which can be taken in a dose of 50 mg daily for a month and then reduce the dose. More such solutions at http://solutionsforpimples.blogspot.com/
Using a banishing cream or bleaching cream can help sometimes with the redness/brown scars that are left behind. You'd have to be careful and read the label if you have sensitive skin though.
I'm not sure if there are any drugs available for this.
Be sure to exfoliate regularly too.
Below are links to a banishing cream and excellent exfoliating system (I use them both!).
take 400 mg vitamin E capsule everyday. Rest u can take a lemon squeezed in 1 glas water. dont take any more medicins. just exercise 30 mins. u can also massage with almond oil for 15 min everyday . good luck thats what helped me after using all the costly products in market
Fade them away using papaya kojic and licorice base soap and cream which are available online. These work wonders.
Maybe it will work on you too.

What is the best route to becoming a plastic surgeon or a dermatologist?
[ i am still in highschool]
but Should I go to a community college?
or is community college a waste of 2 years of time?
also what's the benefit of going or not going to a community college [ i'm talking about becoming a dermatologist/plastic surgeon not anything else]What is the best route to becoming a plastic surgeon or a dermatologist?
The best route would be to go to a top 4-year university for your bachelor's (Ivy league, Hopkins, Stanford, and similar-tiered schools). Plastics and derm are among the most competitive specialties to get into (although they might not still be by the time you're applying to residency....8+ years down the road). To have a better chance at matching into one of those fields you need to go to a very strong med school, and to get into a very strong med school you need to go to a very good college. Yes, it's still possible to break into those fields from lower-ranked schools, but it's more difficult.
You cannot go to med school with just community college, although some people do go to a CC and transfer to a university. The main pro is that you'll save tuition money. The main drawback is that it's tough to transfer into the top colleges from a CC, and you would be missing out on 2 years of opportunities. The specialties you mentioned look for a research background, and the earlier you start in research the better....a CC is not going to give you that background, whereas a 4-year university will. Yes, you could try to get involved in research after you transfer, but that would leave you only 1 year (instead of 3) to produce something valuable before applying to med school.

Is it hard to become a dermatologist these days?
I heard that it is hard to get into a Dermatology residency program after medical school because that is the feild of medicine a lot of medical students want to go into?
Is that true?
And what do I have to do to stand out and get that Derm residency?Is it hard to become a dermatologist these days?
always hard. lots of med students do consider it, but honestly, if you can hold your own and fight like heck, then you should have no problem making it.
