Actinic keratosis
Actinic keratoses (AK) are pink, relatively poorly demarcated, scaly patches and plaques on the sun-exposed skin.
When markedly hyperkeratotic, they can be tender when palpated.
Actinic keratoses can spontaneously regress and can, without treatment, occasionally evolve into invasive squamous carcinoma.
Treatment:
- Liquid nitrogen cryotherapy is the treatment of choice for the isolated actinic keratosis.
- Multiple AK's respond to topical 5% 5-fluorouracil cream bid for three weeks, followed by a resolution of the inflammatory reaction and retreatment. Retreatment is important, if recurrences are to be reduced.
- 10% Masoprocol cream bid for four weeks is an alternative to 5% 5-fluorouracil.
- Imiquimod cream is shown to be effective
- Photodynamic therapy is another possible treatment
- As actinic keratoses are secondary to ultraviolet light damage, the use of broad spectrum sunscreens is recommended.

Dear Friends
Our goal at NYC Dermatology is to be the Tiffanys of Skin
Care. I personally see every new patient who visits our office. I am not just a physician, I am a Board Certified Dermatologist. My goal is, quite simply, to provide the type of dermatologic care which I would seek for my own family. This is a very important point, since physicans often use the phrase "Doctor's Doctor" to refer to those individuals who typically are selected by physicians themselves for personal care. I am confident that my practice fully meets that definition. This is the type of 5-star care and service that our patients expect, deserve and receive. I treat every patient the way I would want to be treated: with courtesy, dignity and respect. I carefully listen to their skin-care concerns and offer a variety of options including a treatment plan that I believe will give them the best results. We also support our patients with a very fine medical staff . Please take a moment to explore our top of the line winning website. My philosophy is simple…Experience Counts and Quality Matters. Please allow me to solve your skin problems. After all, at NYC Dermatology , our philosophy is if you look great you will feel great with gorgeous skin.”
Best Regards,
Dr. Rothfeld
