- Skin cancer
- Anyone, regardless of skin color or ethnicity, can develop skin cancer, so it is important to practice sun safety.
- Until recently, laser hair removal was not an option for people with darker skin because the lasers caused side effects like blistering, changes in skin pigment and scarring.
- If skin disorders are not diagnosed and treated properly, the initial lesions can become darker as they heal and the darker spots can last for years in some cases.
- Scarring Keloid and hypertrophic scars are common in people with skin of color because the skin often does not heal properly after trauma (e.g., cuts, surgical incisions or burns).
- Pseudofolliculitis barbae A common condition of the cheeks, chin and necks of men and women of color, especially African-Americans and Hispanics.
