Our board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Mary Pentel, and our entire team offer a variety of skin care services designed for children of all ages. Whether it’s skin rashes, eczema, vascular birthmarks, warts, or hemangiomas, we specialize in diagnosing and treating almost all skin issues in children.

What pediatric skin conditions do you treat?

Skin issues in children are much more common than you think. The good news is that you don’t have to face them alone. Our team diagnoses and treats skin, hair, and nail conditions in infants, children, and adolescents. We offer tailored treatment for different skin issues in children, including:

  • Birthmarks: Includes vascular birthmarks (like hemangiomas) and pigmented birthmarks.
  • Eczema (atopic dermatitis): Chronic skin inflammation causing dry, itchy, and red patches.
  • Psoriasis: An autoimmune condition that causes scaly, inflamed skin.
  • Skin infections: Bacterial (impetigo), viral (chickenpox, herpes), and fungal (ringworm).
  • Hair and scalp disorders: These include alopecia areata and cradle cap.
  • Acne: Common in teenagers but can also occur in younger children.
  • Warts: Caused by viruses and often seen in school-aged children.
  • Diaper rash: Irritation and inflammation in the diaper area.
  • Vitiligo: Loss of skin pigment in patches.

Children have unique dermatological needs because their bodies and immune systems are still developing. Their skin issues differ from adults’ in how they appear, progress, and respond to treatment. Our dermatological team is experienced in handling pediatric issues with precision and care.
