Skin of Color Clinic

The University of Michigan Health Dermatology Skin of Color Clinic at the Ypsilanti Health Center provides expert care for skin, hair, and nail conditions affecting people with melanated or pigmented skin, such as people of African/African American, Asian/Pacific Islander, Hispanic, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Native American, and mixed background.

We treat a wide range of conditions, such as:

  • Acne
  • Alopecia (Hair loss)
  • Chronic Itch
  • Dark Spots
  • Eczema
  • Keloids
  • Razor bumps
  • Vitiligo

Although many dermatologic disorders are common to all skin types, there are specific considerations for treatments and outcomes that may vary based on the skin’s pigmentation. Our board-certified dermatologists understand the needs of diverse skin types and complexions, as well as cultural routines that can affect skin and hair health for individuals of different racial and ethnic backgrounds.
