Midtown Medical Dermatology in New York City
Skin Cancer Prevention, Detection, and Treatment
- Applying sunscreen any day you are going to be outside is a simple step in prevention.
- Wear sun protective clothing and hats when possible.
- We recommend applying SPF 30 or higher sunscreen and reapplying after exposure to water and according to sunscreen instructions (at least every 2 hours). Make sure to apply sunscreen 30 minutes prior to sun exposure.
- Apply 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) of sunscreen if applying to entire body.

For some people, though, eczema becomes a chronic condition that requires medical management by a dermatologist. Our Team of Board Certified Dermatologists at The Dermatology and Laser Group is expert at finding potential causes of your eczema, and managing your symptoms with both over the counter and prescription remedies.
