What Does a Dermatologist Treat?
Dermatologists are medical doctors with specialized training in conditions of the skin, hair, and nails. They complete a four-year dermatology residency after medical school and are trained in both medical and surgical treatments. Dermatologists treat both medical conditions and cosmetic concerns.
How to Save on Dermatology Care
Teledermatology visits cost $75-$150 and can handle acne, rashes, eczema flare-ups, and follow-up care.
Ask for the cash-pay rate -- dermatology self-pay prices are often 40-60% below insurance-billed rates.
Request generic prescriptions. Most dermatology medications have affordable generic versions ($10-$50/month).
Cosmetic treatments (Botox, fillers) are never covered by insurance regardless, so always compare prices.
University dermatology clinics and teaching hospitals often offer reduced rates for routine care.
Start with OTC treatments for mild acne or eczema before scheduling a dermatologist visit.
Dermatology FAQs
How much does a dermatologist visit cost without insurance?
A cash-pay dermatologist visit costs $150-$350 for an initial consultation and $100-$250 for follow-ups. Procedures like mole removal ($150-$500), skin biopsies ($150-$500), and cryotherapy ($100-$300) are billed separately. Many dermatologists offer self-pay discounts of 30-50% off standard rates.
Can I see a dermatologist through telehealth?
Yes. Teledermatology visits cost $75-$150 and can handle many routine skin concerns including acne, rashes, eczema flare-ups, and follow-up visits. You submit photos of your skin condition and have a video consultation. For conditions requiring physical examination or procedures, an in-person visit is needed.
How often should I get a skin cancer screening?
The American Academy of Dermatology recommends annual full-body skin exams, especially if you have fair skin, history of sunburns, many moles, or family history of skin cancer. Cash-pay screenings cost $150-$300 and can detect melanoma early when it is most treatable.
What is the cheapest way to treat acne without insurance?
Start with over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid products ($5-$20). If those fail, a cash-pay dermatologist visit ($150-$350) provides access to prescription retinoids and antibiotics. Teledermatology ($75-$150) is the most affordable way to get a prescription. Generic medications cost $10-$50/month.
Do I need a referral to see a dermatologist?
Cash-pay patients can schedule directly with any dermatologist without a referral. This saves the cost and time of a primary care visit. Wait times for dermatologists can be 4-12 weeks, so book early. Self-pay patients sometimes get faster appointments.
