Ans. A dermatologist studies skin and related issues, prescribes skin medicine, and, if necessary, performs dermatosurgery. In other words, a dermatologist is a qualified doctor who can offer services to the general public who are facing skin and hair problems. On the other hand, cosmetology is the study of various procedures used to enhance one’s physical characteristics such as hair, nails, skin etc. Chemical peels, laser treatment, wrinkle removal, and medical facial treatments are among the services provided by cosmetologists. Dermatology and cosmetology are entirely two distinct fields.
