What Can an Online Dermatologist Actually Do for You?
Seeing a dermatologist can be a costly, time-consuming, and frustratingly drawn-out process. So it makes sense that a consultation with an online dermatologist would sound intriguing.
The idea is simple enough: You snap a couple of pics of your skin issue, answer a questionnaire, and receive a skin-clearing regimen in return. Whether that’s actually how the process plays out will depend on your skin type, specific concerns, and the service that you choose. As is so often the case, addressing a skin issue (online or IRL) is often trickier than it seems.
Here, we’ll answer some of the biggest questions you may have about the emerging (and pretty darn promising!) field…

I hired an online dermatologist. Here's what happened
Rather than dealing with the hassles of seeing a doc in person, I went the app route. The results were...surprising.
I Used A Virtual Dermatologist App—Here’s What Happened
While I was pregnant with my fourth child, I noticed a darker brown spot on my left cheek. My healthcare provider and I dismissed it as melasma, also known as “the mask of pregnancy.” It’s not uncommon for women to experience this temporary condition which often resolves after they’ve given birth.
