What is a dermatoscope?

Dermatoscopes are a tool used in dermatologists everyday work life.

We use this during an exam as an aid to the visual examination we perform. Dermatoscopes are able to detect skin patterns, colors, and textures that the naked eye is unable to see. By doing so, your dermatologist is able to see if there are any concerning lesions present on your skin that they wouldn’t be able to see otherwise.

Dermatoscopes aid our dermatologists in saving lives! To receive one of these exams, schedule online now!
