When to consult
A timely specialist visit can clarify the next step.
Common reasons include a changing or new mole that needs evaluation, persistent acne or rosacea, sudden rashes after travel, skin infections, allergic reactions, sun damage assessment, or aesthetic concerns you want to evaluate with a licensed dermatologist before deciding on a procedure.
How First Care coordinates
We organize the pathway around the appointment.
- A reviewed dermatologist consult matched to your skin concern.
- Dermoscopy and biopsy coordination for lesions or suspicious moles.
- Photography of lesions for documentation and follow-up.
- Treatment plan in English or Spanish with realistic timelines.
- Aesthetic procedure planning with conservative expectations.
Patient preparation
What to prepare before your appointment
- Photos of the skin issue from different angles and dates if possible.
- A timeline: when it appeared, what triggered changes, what helped.
- List of skincare products, supplements, and medications currently used.
- Sun exposure habits and recent travel context (altitude, climate).
FAQ
Can a mole be biopsied during the same visit?
When clinically appropriate and the dermatologist agrees, a small lesion can sometimes be biopsied the same day. More complex cases are scheduled for a follow-up procedure visit.
Can you coordinate aesthetic procedures?
Yes — botulinum toxin, fillers, peels, laser, and similar procedures are coordinated only with licensed dermatologists and plastic surgeons. We focus on consultation and realistic planning rather than promotion.
Are skin biopsies sent to a lab? When are results available?
Yes. Biopsy results are processed by accredited pathology labs in Ecuador. Turnaround varies by case, usually one to two weeks. We can coordinate the result review with the treating dermatologist.
