About dermatology telehealth
What is dermatology telehealth?
Telehealth in dermatology, also known as teledermatology, allows patients to connect with dermatologists remotely using technology, typically a HIPAA-compliant platform for the diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases. This approach saves patients time and money as these services are usually more affordable than in-person dermatology consultations. Besides, in some states the waiting time to see a dermatologist in person can take up to 30 days, while with asynchronous telehealth consultations, patients only need to wait 1-2 days to get a response from the dermatologist.
How do dermatology telehealth consultations work?
Dermatology telehealth consultations allow you to get expert skin care without visiting a clinic. You start by submitting clear photos of your skin concern along with a short medical questionnaire through a secure platform or app. A dermatologist reviews your case, provides a diagnosis, and recommends a personalized treatment plan. Most consultations are completed within 1–2 business days, making it a fast, convenient, and effective way to manage skin issues from home.
What are the benefits of dermatology telehealth?
Dermatology telehealth makes it easier than ever to get expert skin care without leaving home. Whether you’re dealing with acne, rashes, or other skin concerns, telehealth connects you with dermatology providers quickly and conveniently—no clinic visit required.
Key benefits of dermatology telehealth
- Fast access to dermatologists—usually within 1–2 business days
- No need to travel or wait in a clinic
- Ideal for common skin issues
- Personalized treatment plans and prescriptions (if needed)
- More affordable than in-person appointments
- Great for follow-ups, prescription renewals, and ongoing care
- Accessible from anywhere, including rural or underserved areas
Are dermatology telehealth consultations cheaper than in-person visits?
Yes, dermatology telehealth consultations are typically cheaper than in-person visits. Telehealth eliminates costs related to clinic overhead, travel, and time off work—making it a more affordable and convenient option for many patients. While in-person dermatology visits can range from $100 to $250 or more (especially without insurance), telehealth consultations often cost significantly less.
For example, with services like Miiskin, a consultation with a dermatologist is around $59, much lower than traditional in-office pricing.
Are all telehealth visits conducted by dermatologists?
No, this depends on the service you use. Many telehealth services use a mix of providers, including nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), or general practitioners with dermatology experience.
Via Miiskin, all consultations are handled by independent, board-certified dermatologists, who offer care via their own private practices.
If seeing a board-certified dermatologist is important to you, it’s a good idea to check the provider’s qualifications on the platform before booking.
