At what age should I start going to see a dermatologist? There is no set age that anyone should start seeing a dermatologist and the answer can vary depending on your skin concerns, family history and skin type/color. A good rule of thumb is to establish care with a dermatologist in your 20s-30s. This allows your dermatologist to have a baseline examination of your skin and can make recommendations based on your examination. A dermatologist can also help prevent and reverse sun damage, so starting earlier can be beneficial and decrease your risk of skin cancer in the future.
