Treat your child’s skin conditions or illnesses with a pediatric dermatologist

A pediatric dermatologist isn't typically the first healthcare professional parents call when their child has a skin condition; usually they speed-dial the pediatrician. However, a pediatric dermatologist is the best physician to treat illnesses and conditions involving your child's skin. At the Calabasas Dermatology Center, we offer care specifically tailored for children and adolescents.

Our pediatric dermatologists are highly skilled in treating embarrassing skin conditions that affect your child's appearance and self-esteem. We regularly treat a number of skin conditions common in children at our dermatology clinic.
