Top 10 Dermatologists in Dubai for 2019

The biggest and most important organ against the natural elements is the human skin.

It protects us from harmful radiation and germs, abrasive chemicals and any unexpected impact with harsh materials. Our skin will constantly regenerate and work as needed depending on how we protect and manage it. As we age, our skin undergoes various changes such as acne during our prepubescent years, then blemishes and wrinkles as we age further. Seeing a good dermatologist is important if you’re looking to manage such minor issues but also to proactively screen for more serious issues such as skin disorders and skin-cancer. Dermatologists also help with improving skin aesthetics to help patients maintain a fresh and young and look while continuously screening for the root causes of skin issues.

Closing out 2019, we have compiled a short list of top dermatologists in Dubai according to patient reviews. Six new dermatologists have surged into the list thanks to more patient reviews with the previous top five specialists moving down the list according to our previous ranking. All in all, the list reflects how people in Dubai have experienced and resolved their skin issues with different dermatologists this year.
