    GlossarySkin Changes

    alterations in skin's appearance, texture, or condition

    Skin changes refer to any alterations in the appearance, texture, or condition of the skin. These can include variations in color (such as redness or dark spots), texture (like roughness or smoothness), and the presence of lesions or growths (such as moles or warts). Skin changes can be caused by a variety of factors, including aging, sun exposure, medical conditions like eczema or psoriasis, and systemic diseases such as diabetes or lupus. For professionals, monitoring skin changes is crucial for diagnosing underlying health issues and determining appropriate treatments.
