Skin of Color

Skin of Color NYC at the Skin of Color Treatment Center in Manhattan  addresses the unique needs of 
patients with pigmented skin, hair and nails. 

The  focus of Skin of color Treatment Center is to diagnose and treat skin problems of African-American, Hispanic, Indian and Asian patients.  Dr. Gary Rothfeld a board certified dermatologist at Skin of Color NYC is devoted to the  dermatology needs of patients of skin of color, which he provides unparalleled treatments, cosmetic interventions and diagnoses



Specifics of colored skin

Our  Dermatologist Dr. Rothfeld explains: 

Ethnic skin contains the same amount of melanocytes as Caucasoid skin, (melanocytes are cells located in the bottom of the skin's epidermis), but it contains different amounts of melanosomes, which produce melanin, what gives skin its color. They exist in far greater amounts in colored skin, they're bigger and they exist all over the epidermis. This is what gives ethnic skin a more intense color.

Specifics

Collagen fibres and fibroblasts are denser and more compact in the dermis, which means that aging occurs much later in colored skin. The most common skin complaint in colored women is acne, according to ethnic skin specialist Dr. Rothfeld. Acne is the most common problem, not because ethnic skin is more prone to it but because it causes more damage to colored skin than it does to Caucasoid skin. After spots, ethnic skin is prone to pigmentation and patches." 

Dos and don'ts

Ethnic skin is better adapted to the sun: it sweats and hydrates itself naturally, a bit like internal air conditioning! However, when exposed to a cold, dry climate, this mechanism becomes less effective and the skin loses its protective hydrolipidic film and its natural radiance, often becoming dull and grey-ish. 

Dr. Rothfeld a board certified dermatologist at NYC Dermatology says: There are certain products that aren't recommended for ethnic skin. I don't think regular exfoliation is ideal, though once in a while it can do your skin good as long as you use a gentle exfoliator. Peeling masks/wraps are generally okay, but you should never use just any old product on your skin. It's important to see a dermatologist to find out what's right for you. Laser treatment doesn't always work on ethnic skin and can even cause permanent depigmentation, so you need to be careful.
