Teledermatology allows patients to consult a dermatologist remotely, using clear photos and a video or phone call. It is convenient for follow-up visits, common rashes, acne reviews and medication adjustments, especially for people who find travel difficult.
The doctor reviews the photos and history, advises treatment and tells you if an in-person visit is needed. It is not suitable for every problem, such as a changing mole, a rapidly spreading rash or conditions that need touching, scraping or a biopsy. Patients can choose a dermatologist in Kandivali for an in-person check whenever required.
