Looking Onward
Thankfully , due to the Fitzpatrick system of skin phototyping , understanding patient skin type can be a catalyst to initiating proper treatment options by the provider while also avoiding issues like sun damage and pigmentation within patients . Everyone , regardless of skin type , should practice sun protection strategies routinely and have regular skin exams with a Dermatologist . Advanced treatments like lasering , or chemical peels can be of better service to some Fitzpatrick types more than others , but having additional up to date information on all treatment options collectively , can contribute to the ever-growing medical practices of this generation .
Your health care provider is the best source of information for questions and concerns related to your medical problem .
