Too often, our voices as board-certified dermatologists are crowded out on social media by non-expert physicians, non-physicians, and influencers. Today, I’m joined by Dr. Edward Prodanovic to educate you on the specific expertise that dermatologists have in the medical, surgical and cosmetic treatments of the skin. Tune in to learn more about how we approach chemical peeling, soft tissue augmentation, laser surgery, and many more medical treatments!

In this episode, we’ll cover:

Definitions of the many medical procedures that dermatologists are equipped to perform
How dermatologists have advanced the science of skincare
How the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS/A) fights back against attempts to diminish the work and expertise of dermatologists in the field
