What are the most prevalent skin conditions in California that can be addressed through telehealth?

In California, typical skin conditions treatable through telehealth encompass acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and signs of aging. These issues are frequently affected by sun exposure and environmental elements, making them suitable for diagnosis and management during virtual consultations.
