Abstract
Cosmetic consultations are routinely part of a dermatologist’s day. Often, patients present after consultation from another dermatologist or other physician with an established diagnosis and would like a particular treatment to resolve their condition. However, it is imperative to take a full history and physical exam prior to rendering treatment in the event of a missed or new diagnosis.
