Dermatoloogilised

Dermatoloogilised is the Estonian adjective meaning related to dermatology, the medical specialty that studies and treats the skin, hair, nails, and mucous membranes. The term appears in medical texts to describe conditions, procedures, and research connected with this field, and is used to classify anything pertaining to skin health and its disorders.

The scope of dermatoloogilised topics includes a wide range of conditions such as inflammatory skin diseases (eczema, psoriasis), acne, rosacea, fungal and viral infections, benign and malignant skin tumors (including melanoma, basal and squamous cell carcinomas), pigmentary disorders, and genetic skin diseases. It also covers cosmetic and aesthetic concerns, wound healing, and preventive skin care, as well as systemic diseases with skin manifestations.

Diagnostic and therapeutic approaches encompass clinical examination, dermoscopy, skin biopsy, patch testing for allergies, and laboratory or imaging studies when needed. Treatments range from topical therapies (steroids, retinoids, calcineurin inhibitors) to systemic medications (antibiotics, antifungals, retinoids, immunomodulators, biologics). Procedures may include cryotherapy, surgical excisions, Mohs surgery, laser and light-based therapies, and phototherapy. Cosmetic dermatology involves procedures such as chemical peels, fillers, and neuromodulators.

Education and research in dermatoloogilised topics are carried out within medical curricula and specialist training programs. Dermatologists undergo residency training and certification in many countries, contributing to advances in understanding disease mechanisms, personalized treatment approaches, and innovative therapies.
