Solar Keratosis treatment in Huixquilucan

Solar keratosis, also called actinic keratosis, is a rough, scaly skin lesion that appears due to accumulated sun exposure over the years. It is considered a lesion worth monitoring.

When should it be checked? It is worth showing it to a professional if it grows, bleeds, hardens, or changes in appearance, since it requires dermatologic follow-up.

Common features:

• Rough, reddish, or skin-colored areas, often on the face, ears, scalp, or backs of the hands
• A rough sensation to the touch, sometimes more noticeable than to the eye

Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist is the right one to examine these lesions and guide their management. If you notice persistent patches in sun-exposed areas, scheduling a skin check is a wise decision.
