Comprehensive Skin Care with Expertise and Compassion

The Department of Dermatology at Samsung Medical Center is dedicated to providing high-quality care for patients with a wide range of skin disorders. Our team of expert dermatologists is supported by state-of-the-art medical equipment and facilities. We are committed not only to delivering exceptional clinical care, but also to training future leaders in dermatology and advancing the field through active academic research. Our goal is to help patients achieve and maintain healthy skin with compassion, expertise, and innovation.

Skin Disease Diagnosis and Treatment You Can Trust

We diagnose and treat a broad spectrum of dermatologic conditions, including atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, vitiligo, contact dermatitis, allergic disorders, hair and scalp disorders, nail diseases, skin tumors, genetic skin diseases, pigmentary and vascular disorders, acne, and signs of skin aging. In addition, we assist in diagnosing systemic diseases that present with skin manifestations, helping to identify internal organ-related conditions through dermatological findings.

Where Technology Meets Excellence in Dermatology

We utilize advanced, non-invasive diagnostic tools such as high-resolution dermatologic ultrasound and laser Doppler flowmetry to assess skin blood flow. With a comprehensive range of medical lasers and phototherapy devices, our department is at the forefront of both diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases. To align with global standards of care, we actively participate in domestic and international clinical trials.

Beyond patient care, we are deeply committed to training the next generation of dermatologists and advancing research in dermatopathology and molecular biology. Our team conducts both basic and clinical research, including genetic studies related to skin disorders. We are particularly recognized for our research achievements in atopic dermatitis, leading innovative scientific developments in the field of dermatology.
