Dermatology Tailored to Skin of Color

If you have a dark skin tone, your dermatologist should have experience and training in caring for your skin. Depending on the level of pigment in your skin, skin conditions will present differently. Where a certain condition might be obvious in the lightest skin, that same condition could be missed by a practitioner who does not understand dark skin tones.

At Hollywood Dermatology in Pembroke Pines and Hollywood, Florida, patients with brown and black skin tones can receive the utmost care from an extraordinary provider, Yasmin Mathlin, APRN, a board-certified dermatology nurse practitioner. As a Provider of Color, she is accustomed to enhancing the natural beauty of your skin and treating any conditions present.

Skin Care Services Tailored to Dark Skin Tones

What separates skin tones? Melanin. It’s as simple as that. In the human body are three different types of melanin. The most common is eumelanin, a brown-black pigment.

This type is produced by skin cells called melanocytes and is held within melanosome discs. Melanin is present in the skin to help protect DNA from UV damage. Different skin tones represent nothing more than a varying distribution of eumelanin in skin cells. Nonetheless, as a person with a darker skin tone, you may be susceptible to certain dermatologic conditions, and Yasmin Mathlin understands the unique needs of your skin.
