As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Abramovits offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- Ringworm: Ringworm, despite its name, isn't caused by a worm but a fungus, leading to a red, ring-shaped rash; your dermatologist can identify it and provide effective treatment.
- Angioedema: Angioedema causes noticeable swelling, typically in the face, lips, or tongue. A dermatologist can help determine the cause of your swelling and recommend the best treatment to manage it.
- Keloid Scar: Keloid scars are raised, often dark-colored, and can occur after an injury or surgery; dermatologists offer options to reduce their size and improve their look.
- Molluscum Contagiosum Infection: If you have a contagious skin rash with small, raised bumps, it could be molluscum contagiosum, which a dermatologist can diagnose and treat.
- Acanthosis Nigricans: Acanthosis nigricans is a skin condition causing dark, velvety patches, usually in skin folds, and a dermatologist can help diagnose and manage it.
- Onychomycosis: If you have a nail fungus (onychomycosis), a dermatologist can help by identifying the type of fungus and prescribing the right antifungal medicine or procedures to clear the infection.
- Age Spots: Age spots are harmless brown or black spots caused by years of sun exposure, and a dermatologist can help assess and treat them.
- Warts: Dermatologists treat warts, small bumps on the skin caused by infection, with treatments to freeze, burn, or surgically remove them.
- Skin Cancer: Skin cancer is a disease where abnormal skin cells grow uncontrollably, and dermatologists diagnose and treat it through various methods, including surgery and medication.
- Lichen Simplex Chronicus: Chronic scratching or rubbing of the skin can lead to lichen simplex chronicus, a condition characterized by thickened, leathery skin; a dermatologist provides treatments to relieve the itch and break the cycle.
- Rash: Many types of rashes exist, and a dermatologist's expertise ensures you receive accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment for your specific rash.
- Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Skin: If you have a suspicious skin growth that might be squamous cell carcinoma, a dermatologist can perform a biopsy and recommend the best course of action.
This list represents some of the common conditions treated. An accurate diagnosis and a personalized care plan can only be developed through a direct consultation with a qualified medical professional.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Dermatological care with Dr. Abramovits:
- How often should I get a full-body skin exam for skin cancer?
- Most experts recommend an annual professional skin exam. However, individuals at higher risk, such as those with a personal or family history of skin cancer, numerous moles, or significant sun exposure, may need to be seen more frequently, as advised by Dr. Abramovits.
- What is the difference between a Dermatologist and an Esthetician?
- A dermatologist is a medical doctor (MD or DO) who diagnoses and treats all skin, hair, and nail conditions, including prescribing medication. An esthetician is a licensed skincare professional who provides cosmetic treatments, but cannot diagnose medical conditions or prescribe medication.
- Can a dermatologist help with nail problems like fungus or discoloration?
- Yes, dermatologists treat conditions of the skin, hair, and nails. They can diagnose and treat common nail issues like fungal infections, ingrown nails, and psoriasis of the nails, often offering more effective treatments than over-the-counter options.
- My skin is very sensitive and often red. Could it be rosacea?
- Persistent redness, flushing, and bumps can be signs of rosacea, a common chronic skin condition. Dr. Abramovits can accurately diagnose rosacea and create a personalized management plan, which may include gentle skincare, prescription creams, and identifying personal triggers.
- What should I look for when checking my own moles at home?
- When checking moles at home, look for asymmetry, irregular borders, uneven color, a diameter larger than a pencil eraser (6mm), and any changes in size, shape, or color (evolving). If you notice any of these signs, please schedule an appointment with Dr. Abramovits.
- What is Mohs surgery, and why is it used for skin cancer?
- Mohs surgery is a highly precise surgical technique used to treat skin cancer. The surgeon removes the cancer layer by layer and examines it under a microscope during the procedure, ensuring all cancer cells are removed while sparing the maximum amount of healthy tissue. This results in a high cure rate.
- What is the difference between Botox® and dermal fillers?
- Botox® is a neuromodulator that relaxes muscles causing dynamic wrinkles. Dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm® or Restylane®, add volume to restore fullness, smooth out static wrinkles, and contour the face.
- What can be done for sun spots or uneven skin tone?
- Dr. Abramovits offers various effective options to improve sun damage and pigmentation, including prescription lightening creams (e.g., hydroquinone), chemical peels, and laser or light therapies (like IPL/photofacials) that can significantly improve skin tone and clarity.
