I've been to 2 other doctors for skin cancer issues before seeing Mr. Woseth. I'm a repeat patient because of his professional and knowledgeable treatment. I even drive 170 miles just to go see him! I'll stick with him and I readily refer my friends and family.

When most people think of dermatology, they think only of conditions of the skin. It’s true that your dermatologist can treat skin diseases and conditions such as skin cancer, acne, warts, psoriasis, and dry skin. A dermatologist is also a trained medical doctor who treats issues with hair and nails, such as hair loss, scalp problems, and nail diseases. In order to maintain good overall health, it is important to make a dermatologist part of your medical care team. Your primary care physician may refer you to a dermatologist for a more in-depth examination of any suspicious skin conditions such as irregular moles that could be an early sign of skin cancer. A great dermatologist will not only treat your skin, hair, and nail issues, but will also educate you on how to best take care of yourself once you leave his office.

Did you know that your skin is the largest organ in your body? It is important to take steps to protect your skin by wearing sunscreen every day and visiting your dermatologist to make sure that it stays healthy. With all the various skin conditions that exist, perhaps the most common one is dry skin. Dry skin may crack, itch, and have an unsightly appearance that affects your self-confidence. Read on to learn how you can take care of your dry skin to transform it into looking healthy and beautiful.
Smart Bathing
Cleanliness is essential for healthy skin. When you are taking a shower, try using warm water instead of hot water, as hot water can actually strip your skin of its natural oils. Keep your shower to no more than 10 minutes, as the longer you spend in the water, the drier your skin may get. As you bathe, use a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser that won’t irritate your skin. You don’t need to work up a thick lather to get clean—just use enough to wash away dirt and oils. If you have particularly sensitive skin, ask your dermatologist to recommend a cleanser that will help lock in moisture.
Daily Moisturizing
It’s easy for skin to become dry, especially when it is exposed to air and sunlight. After you bathe, apply moisturizer while your skin is still damp to better trap moisture in your skin. Use a non-comedogenic moisturizer on your face, and consider switching to ointments or creams instead of lotion for the most stubborn areas of dry skin. Apply moisturizer after every time you wash your hands and face to keep them smooth and supple.
Care in Clothing
Itchy, rough clothes are more than just annoying. Rough fabrics can irritate your skin and make dry skin worse. If you are experiencing dry skin, wear cotton or silk next to your skin instead of harsher fabrics like wool. Choose hypoallergenic laundry detergents to ensure that you aren’t causing further irritation to your dry skin.
Dry skin is a common condition, and the friendly dermatologists at Swinyer-Woseth Dermatology in Salt Lake City are here to help you fight it. Call us at (801) 657-3779 to schedule your consultation, and let us help you keep your skin smooth, beautiful, and healthy.
The term eczema can be quite confusing, as it is often used by laypeople to describe a variety of different skin conditions. Watch this video to hear a dermatologist explain exactly what eczema is.
Eczema is a chronic skin condition that often starts in childhood and can affect adults later in life. The skin gets very itchy, red, cracked, dry, and sometimes covered in bumps. Oftentimes, people who are prone to allergic rhinitis (hay fever) and other allergies will experience eczema along with their other allergic symptoms. Eczema may appear on the hands, feet, ankles, neck, face, and behind the knees. Flare-ups can be quite uncomfortable and will usually require the attention of a dermatologist.
The board-certified dermatologists at Swinyer-Woseth Dermatology in Salt Lake City are well-versed in treating eczema and other skin conditions. Contact us at (801) 657-3779 or visit our website to learn more about our services and to find out how we can help you fight eczema.
