Hemangioma
Cavernous hemangioma or strawberry hemangioma is an abnormal collection of blood vessels in the skin or organs.
vascular malformations
Vascular malformations make up a wide and heterogeneous spectrum of lesions, which frequently present a challenge.
They are always present from birth that never disappear and can grow throughout life.
skin infections
It encompasses all skin infections that can be caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites.
Dandruff
Dandruff is a peeling of the skin on your scalp. It is usually a symptom of seborrheic dermatitis or seborrhea.
Melanoma
Melanoma is the generic name for melanic or pigmented tumors and malignant melanoma is a serious variety of skin cancer, causing the majority of skin cancer-related deaths.
Basal cell carcinoma
The most common and low-risk type of skin cancer as long as it is treated correctly. It has no ability to spread beyond the skin unless it is allowed to evolve for years without treatment.
It usually presents as a shiny, reddish or somewhat darkly pigmented area, usually presents small erosions or superficial wounds, and does not usually cause any discomfort but does not resolve without adequate treatment.
Currently, dermatologists who are experts in the field have the ability to detect it when they are millimetric and on some occasions it can progress or invade very superficial areas, so that its treatment can be performed even with barely invasive techniques and leaving minimal scarring.
Skin cancer
Generally, it is considered any tumor or tissue that, without adequate treatment, will tend to grow uncontrolled in the skin and may invade nearby tissues.
There are certain types of skin cancer that, if not treated properly, can also acquire the ability to spread beyond the skin, as in the case of invasive melanoma. There are different families of skin cancer, the most frequent and least aggressive being carcinomas.
Melanomas are less common, however they can appear in younger patients and have a higher risk if they are not detected early. There are other much rarer types of skin cancer such as lymphomas or skin sarcomas.
Skin protection from sun exposure, as well as skin self-examination and, above all, dermatological visits for early detection are essential tools for prevention and adequate healing.
