Pediatric Dermatology

It is a disease that affects the skin, hair, or nails. Dermatologist specializes in diagnosing and treating children, including newborns and infants. Some more study and training are needed to become a pediatric dermatologist. Most diseases that affect the skin, hair, or nails are more common in kids. Some of these diseases only occur in children. We need to understand that kids are not “little adults”. some dermatologic conditions are unique to children, and diseases sometimes present differently in children than in adult.
