Normally, the color of hair and skin is determined by melanin. Vitiligo occurs when the cells that produce melanin die or stop functioning. Vitiligo affects people of all skin types, but it may be more noticeable in people with darker skin. The condition is not life-threatening or contagious. It can be stressful or make you feel bad about yourself. Treatment for vitiligo may restore color to the affected skin. But it does not prevent continued loss of skin color or a recurrence.

Urticaria is a transient erythematous swelling of the skin, associated with itching, which usually resolves within 24 hours while Angioedema is characterized by swellings caused by edema in the deeper dermal, cutaneous and sub-mucosal tissue. The overlying skin may appear normal.

Chronic urticaria can be associated with rheumatologic disorders, chronic infections including Hepatitis B and C, sinus infections and Helicobacter pylori, as well as parasitic infections (more common in developing countries)

Dermatopathology is a subspecialty that deals with the study of dermatology and pathology and targets on the analysis of cutaneous illness at a minuscule and atomic level. It additionally includes observations of the probable reasons for skin illnesses at a significant level. Dermatopathologists and clinical dermatologists work in cooperation with each other, which brings the causative element of the disease to the knowledge of the dermatopathologist and results in a specific interpretation of treatment process.

The Laser Center sees an ever-increasing number of patients who seek treatment of their port-wine stains, angiomas, superficial hemangiomas, hypertrophic scars, and warts with the vascular dye laser. Using the ultra-pulsed CO2 laser for the treatment of epidermal nevi, angiofibromas, nevus sebacei which are extensive can be accomplished with minimal scars. Patients with Nevus of Ito and Ota, as well as tattoo patients are treated with the Q-switched yag laser with the expected excellent results.

Cryosurgery is a very effective treatment for a broad range of benign skin problems. With proper instruction and supervised understanding, physicians can gain expertise over the technique quickly. Cryosurgery is suitable for use in patients with light skin and for treatment of lesions in most non–hair-bearing areas of the body.

Cryotherapy provides a noninvasive, pain free and quick treatment to soothe itchy, sore, dry and reddened skin to help manage the symptoms of skin conditions including eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis. The 3 minute treatment comprises standing in a sauna while the skin in exposed to temperatures below zero using liquid nitrogen.

Skin cancers are the type of cancers which arise from the skin. These cancers appear due to the development of abnormal cells that have the ability to invade or spread to other parts of the body. There are three main types of skin cancers: Basal-cell skin cancer (BCC), Squamous-cell skin cancer (SCC) and Melanoma, among them Melanomas are the most aggressive. Symbols include a mole that has changed in size, shape, color which has irregular edges, more than one color, is itchy or bleeds. Skin cancer becomes the most common form of cancer, globally accounting for at least 40% of cases

Cosmetic dermatology is the comprehensive term that deals with the specialties of improving and treating the appearance and condition of the skin cosmetically.  The treating conditions include scars, skin laxity, wrinkles, moles, excess fat, cellulite, unwanted hair, skin discoloration, and spider veins. These techniques include both surgical and non-surgical procedures. 

Papulosquamous syndromes are a group of isolated dermatologic conditions in which patients present with red, raised lesions with scale while psoriasis is the prototypical papulosquamous disorder, similar skin lesions may be seen in infections, lymphomas, and allergic conditions.

Pediatric dermatology deals with the study of neonatal skin. Pediatric dermatologists deal with the diagnosis and treatment of the various skin disorders in infants and children. The skin of infants is thinner than adult skin and more susceptible to microbe infection due to less developed immune system than the adults.

Autoimmune diseases present with diverse and broad-ranging cutaneous indications. Skin-specific autoimmune disorders for instance autoimmune blistering dermatoses can sometimes symbolize the cutaneous symptom of a multiorgan disease due to potential common pathogenic mechanisms.

Atopic dermatitis or eczema is a condition that makes the skin red and itchy. It's common in children but can eventuate at any age. Atopic dermatitis is chronic and tends to explode periodically. It may be associated with asthma or hay fever. Healthy skin helps reserve moisture and defends us from bacteria, irritants and allergens. Eczema is associated to a gene variation that affects the skin's ability to provide this protection. This allows your skin to be influenced by environmental factors, irritants and allergens.

Redness and breakouts on our face could mean that we have acne, but not always. Rosacea, an acne-like skin condition can cause breakouts and redness too. It is a skin condition that is chronic and inflammatory in nature and most often affects the face. If left untreated it worsens with time. It is often mistaken for acne, eczema, or a skin allergy. Fair skin people and who tend to blush easily might be at a higher risk for the disorder. Rosacea seems more often among women than men but men tend to have the more severe symptoms. A possible reason for this could be the delay in medical treatment until the symptoms of the disease becomes advanced. Although the causes are not fully understood and there is no cure, there are a number of ways to relieve symptoms.

Restoring the normal appearance, function and deformities of the parts of the body created by some medical conditions, birth defects or trauma is considers as Reconstructive Surgery.
