Abstrakt: The US population is becoming increasingly diverse, yet patients of color remain underrepresented in dermatology. The lack of diverse images in dermatologic learning materials can lead to discomfort in treating patients of color, delayed, and missed diagnoses. In this review, we compare and contrast the clinical presentation, management, and special considerations of common skin conditions between patients of color and white patients as well as provide a visual representation of these differences.
