Pediatric Dermatology
What is Pediatric Dermatology?
At HM Hospitales, we have a Pediatric Dermatology department which focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of skin, hair, and nail conditions in children and adolescents. Children’s skin is different from that of adults, being thinner and more delicate, and therefore more susceptible to certain conditions. Our pediatric dermatology team has specialized training in the skin conditions most commonly seen in childhood, as well as in managing the unique characteristics of children’s skin.
This specialty covers a wide range of pathologies, from atopic and diaper dermatitis to skin infections caused by bacteria, fungi or viruses, as well as vascular malformations, skin tumors and genetic disorders affecting the skin. Our pediatric dermatologists work closely with other specialists, such as pediatricians, allergists, and immunologists, to provide a comprehensive approach to each case. If you notice any problems with your children’s skin, hair, or nails, don’t hesitate to make an appointment with our specialists.
