• Skin Cancer Awareness month •

☀️Colorado - one of the sunniest states and also with the highest average elevation of any state - has the nation's highest per-capita rate of skin cancer. Melanoma, the most dangerous type of skin cancer, is the fifth-most diagnosed cancer for men in Colorado and the sixth for women.

⚠️ Skin cancer awareness is a crucial topic for us dermatologists. Skin cancer affects nearly 5 million Americans every year. It is important to us that we educate our patients and community on the importance of early detection. We go even further by training primary care providers to better detect the signs of skin cancer among their patients to ensure early diagnosis. We also consider it our role to speak in the media to inform the general public and answer the most common questions people have regarding this topic.

➡️ We’d like to highlight for their very resourceful website for patients 🙏.

Seeing a dermatologist. 👩‍⚕️

Here are 5 good reasons why you should consider visiting a dermatologist:
1️⃣ You want to optimize your skincare routine but are overwhelmed by all the options out there.

2️⃣ You have several unchecked moles and a family history of melanoma.

3️⃣ You think you may be suffering from a skin disease but have never been clearly diagnosed.

4️⃣ You're suffering from a skin disease and are unhappy with your current treatment.

5️⃣ You're considering cosmetic procedures but are unsure what actually works or is safe specifically for you.

------
• What to expect during your visit? •

Your dermatologist may ask you questions about your health and family history. 👨‍👩‍👦

Depending on your reason for visit, they may also perform a full-body skin check for any skin cancer related growths. 🔍

🗣️ You can also discuss treatment options for any skin conditions you may have.

------
➡️Did you know that board-certified dermatologists are trained to diagnose and treat over 3000 skin, hair and nail diseases!?

Good question here ❔
The short answer: At least once a year to have your moles checked, especially here in sunny Colorado ☀️.

Of course if you have a persistent skin condition that hasn't been diagnosed yet, or if you have noticed a change in any of your moles we recommend that you schedule an appointment with one of our board-certified dermatologists to evaluate your skin 🗓️.

Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea is considered the most common subtype of rosacea. The usual characteristics are flushing and persistent central facial erythema (redness) 🔴.

Patients suffering from this condition, both men and women, have something in common: they tell us it has adversely affected their life 🙇‍♀️🙇‍♂️.

👉 What they usually don't know is that we can treat these vascular abnormalities thanks to Vbeam laser.

Today we'd like to share 7 skin care tips from board-certified dermatologists!

1• Wear sunscreen (30 SPF) daily ⛱️.
Especially in sunny areas such as Colorado!

2• Stay out of tanning beds 🙅‍♀️.
They emit harmful UV radiation that causes skin cancer.

3• Simplify your skin care routine ⤵️.
Less is more when it comes to skin care.

4• Choose skin care products formulated for your skin type☝️.

5• Treat your lips 👄.
Apply hydrating lip balm everyday, preferably with SPF in it.

6• Keep your hands off your face 🙌.
Dirt, germs, and oil can transfer from your hands to your face.

7• Check your skin regularly 🔍.
If you notice any suspicious spots, make an appointment to see a board-certified dermatologist.

🌹 Rosacea Awareness month 🌹

What a poetic name for this disease, don't you think?

In fact, Rosacea can cause more than redness, from which it takes its name. There are so many signs and symptoms that rosacea has 4 subtypes:
•1 Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea
Causes redness, flushing, visible blood vessels

•2 Papulopustular rosacea
Causes redness, swelling, and acne-like breakouts

•3 Phymatous rosacea
Skin thickens and has a bumpy texture

•4 Ocular rosacea
Eyes red and irritated, eyelids can be swollen, and the person may have what looks like a sty.

💡 Rosacea is a pretty common skin disease among fair-skinned and blue-eyed people. In fact, Bill Clinton 👨‍🦳, Princess Diana 👸, Cameron Diaz 👩 have all suffered from rosacea.

If you're experiencing these symptoms, you can visit our dermatologists to help find effective treatments. Click on our website link to book online 📲, or give us a call 720-381-2600 📞.

🌹 Rosacea Awareness month 🌹

Rosacea is a pretty common, yet poorly understood, skin disease, touching 16 million Americans. A National Rosacea Society survey found that 95% of rosacea patients had known little or nothing about its signs and symptoms prior to their diagnosis.

This skin disease often begins with a tendency to blush or flush more easily than other people. The redness can slowly spread beyond the nose and cheeks to the forehead and chin. Even the ears, chest, and back can be red all the time. With time, people who have rosacea often see permanent redness in the center of their face, potentially turning into a life-disruptive disorder.

➡️ While the cause of rosacea is unknown and there is no cure, today medical help is available to control the signs and symptoms.

If you need a diagnosis, or if you are looking for a treatment, we can help! Schedule an appointment with Dr Sagehpour 👩‍⚕️ or Dr Newman 👩‍⚕️.

💡 The National Rosacea Society provides very useful ressources and support to people suffering from Rosacea.

Happy Medical Assistant Recognition Week! To celebrate, we are recognizing our star team member and medical assistant Venessa Stevens ! This week was even more especial for her and SkinMed Institute as we celebrated her one year of employment with us ! Our practice was lucky to meet Venessa soon after she moved to colorado from Massachusetts. Venessa received her Bachelor of Arts in Health Sciences from Stonehill College in Easton Massachusetts and worked in dermatology prior to moving to Colorado. She is not only smart, hardworking, and meticulous, but she is funny, amazing with our patients and an amazing baker! At SkinMed Institute you will find her working side by side with our physicians in providing excellent care to patients, or in the histotech lab helping to clear skin cancer by preparing the best pathology slides for our Mohs surgeon .f.s.lim.md!

One of the ways that SkinMed Institute sets its care for patients apart is that our doctors not only incorporate cutting edge advances in research in their tailored treatment plans for patients, but they are also at the very forefront of developing those advances in research.

This month, the research findings of our own Dr. Sabrina Newman was published in the prestigious Journal of American Academy of Dermatology . This study showed that when telehealth with a dermatologist was used in busy emergency room settings to help in diagnosis of various skin conditions patients received better care and more accurate diagnoses during those ER visits since they were able to benefit from the expertise of a dermatologist in real time. This is important as many patients go to emergency departments for skin-related conditions and can really benefit from seeing a dermatologist who has expertise in diagnosing their condition.

While the use of telehealth was new to most patients and even doctors during the pandemic, all of our physicians have been using teledermatology for many years prior to the pandemic. We believe that being able to see a dermatologist in a timely manner is very important. We have made it our practice mission to increase access to timely dermatology appointments including telehealth visits so that our patients can see a skin expert when it comes to diagnosing and treating their skin condition.
