Dermatologists are doctors who specialize in keeping skin, hair and nails healthy. They can spot potential problems and diagnose skin conditions that range from minor to life-threatening. Their skills and knowledge improve the lives of patients of all ages, from infants with birthmarks and children with eczema, to adults with sun damage and seniors with shingles. Skin care experts at Ohio State can effectively treat any skin concerns you have and help you look and feel your best.

Our dermatologists are part of a multidisciplinary skin care team. Whether you need general medical care for the skin or specialized medical, surgical or cosmetic dermatology, our experts are your trusted partners in maintaining skin, hair and nail health.

Ohio State also offers specialized expertise in complex medical dermatology, psoriasis, phototherapy, pediatric dermatology, contact and occupation dermatitis and lasers.

Whether we’re treating acne, aging skin, burns or skin infections and diseases, our team delivers personalized skin care with an unmatched level of experience and compassion.

Skin Health and Skin Conditions

Your skin is your body’s largest organ. It covers and protects your body. Skin serves many important functions, including:

Holding body fluids in
Preventing dehydration
Keeping harmful microbes out
Preventing infections
Helping you feel things like heat, cold and pain
Keeping your body temperature even
Making vitamin D when the sun shines on it

Anything that irritates, clogs or inflames your skin can cause symptoms such as redness, swelling, burning and itching. Allergies, irritants, your genetic makeup, and certain diseases and immune system problems can cause rashes, hives and other skin conditions. Many skin problems, such as acne, also affect your appearance.

Acne Acne is a common, treatable skin condition also known as pimples.

Birthmarks Learn about various forms, potential skin cancer risks and treatment of birthmarks.

Burns Burns can result from chemical, heat or fire-related injuries.

Cellulitis Cellulitis is an often painful, potentially severe skin infection.

Cold Sores A contagious virus causes cold sores.

Corns and Calluses Pressure or friction can cause rough or thickened skin called corns and calluses.

Fungal Infections Fungal infections may start in the lungs or on the skin.
