Dermatologists are a wealth of knowledge. From unique skin conditions to acne, hair loss, skin cancer prevention, cosmetic procedures, and so much more — dermatologists should be your go-to for any and all skin-care related questions.
Thanks to social media, we are no longer limited to just getting professional skin-care advice within the walls of a traditional dermatology office (although you should still be visiting one regularly just the same). More and more dermatologists are taking their work to Instagram to share small pieces of information and guidance with their followers remotely.
Black dermatologists specifically are underrepresented and underutilized in the beauty industry, but we can all take steps to change that, and it starts by putting theses amazing Black dermatologists on your radar. We're sharing just a few of the top skin experts that the industry has to offer, ahead.
