Seborrheic Keratosis

Seborrheic Keratosis

Seborrheic Keratoses are harmless, common skin growths that first appear during adult life. As time goes by, more growths appear. Some people have a very large number of them. Seborrheic Keratoses appear on both covered and uncovered parts of the body; they are not caused by sunlight. The tendency to develop Seborrheic Keratoses is inherited.

Seborrheic Keratoses are treated by Dr. Green for patients in the DC, Virginia, and Maryland regions. They are harmless and never become malignant. They begin as slightly raised, light brown spots. Gradually they thicken and take on a rough, warty surface. They slowly darken and may turn black. These color changes are harmless. Seborrheic Keratoses are superficial and look as if they were stuck on the skin. People who have had several Seborrheic Keratoses can usually recognize this type of benign growth. However, if you are concerned or unsure about any growth, please consult Dr. Green.

How are Seborrheic Keratoses treated?

Seborrheic Keratoses can be removed utilizing various methods. Many patients wish to remove Seborrheic Keratoses if they are unsightly, itches, or annoys you by rubbing against your clothes. The best treatment for you will be determined based upon examination.

What Our Patients Say

“Went to Dr. Green today for a rash. He was amazing. He thoroughly examined me, knew exactly what the problem was, and then initiated treatment while I was still in the office. Rarely do you find such a compassionate doctor as Dr. Green. I was better before I even left the office! I will recommend him to all of my friends!”

“I have been a long time patient of Dr. Green. It is refreshing to see Dr. Green as he is always willing, unlike most doctors, to spend the time that I admittedly require to understand what needs to be done for me. Dr. Green is patient, caring, and brilliant! He has helped me through various skin issues that no other doctor could fix. In addition, now that I am older, I have requested his assistance with Botox. He makes it comfortable, quick and the results are great! Next I may consider filler. He has done it for others and his work is impeccable. I recommend Dr. Green – he is the best!”
