You want your hair and nails to look as good as your beautiful skin. If you're struggle with hair, nail, or scalp problems, Park Avenue Skin Care has decades of experience helping patients get back to looking their best.
Hair loss is one of the most common hair problems that we see at Park Avenue Skin Care. Both men and women can start to notice thinning hair in their teens throughout adulthood. It is important to understand the cause of your hair loss in order to find an appropriate treatment.
Coming in for treatment sooner rather than later could make all the difference in combating hair loss. In fact it’s much easier to stop hair loss than to regrow lost hair so whether it’s hair loss from infections, inflammation, allergic reactions, side effects of medication or common genetics (hereditary pattern hair loss), early diagnosis and treatment is so important.
Dr. Schultz and Park Avenue Skin Care are positioned to provide our patients with the best medical and cosmetic dermatological care. We take the time to understand your concerns, examine the affected areas, and take a full-body approach to what may be causing your hair, nail or scalp issues.
Finger and toenails can be susceptible to a number of conditions including fungal nail infections, lifting, splitting, discoloration,thickening and even bacterial infections. Many people develop problems with their nails by interacting with water frequently, getting manicures and pedicures, and even ill-fitting shoes. Other conditions, like diabetes and psoriasis, can also cause nail problems.
Those who wear ill-fitting shoes may also be at risk for ingrown nails, which is a painful condition that may require surgery. Since infectious, traumatic and inflammatory conditions of the nail can be quite uncomfortable, Dr. Schultz has developed special expertise in helping patients with these issues.
Dandruff is a common scalp problem that many people experience, regardless of age or gender. These dry flakes can show through your hair as well as on your clothes, no matter how much you wash your hair or avoid touching it.
Conditions like psoriasis and hypothyroidism can also affect the scalp, causing brittle hair, hair loss, and dry patches. Problems with the scalp can cause discomfort whether it’s tormenting itching or pain, making it all the more important to see a specialist at Park Avenue Skin Care to ensure that you’re getting a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
With over 35 years of experience, Dr. Schultz has worked with thousands of patients to help them with their hair, nail, and scalp problems. From parasites to hair loss to nail infections and more, Dr. Schultz has developed special expertise in treating these conditions. Starting with a thorough physical examination, Dr. Schultz will get an understanding of what you're experiencing.
You will be able to discuss your symptoms, history, and concerns in an open discussion so that all of your questions are answered. You may need to undergo blood work or have a scalp biopsy or culture in order to definitively determine your diagnosis. Once you have a diagnosis, you can start on the path to feeling better with a comprehensive treatment plan.
