[Misc.] Skincare addicts of Chicago! Just moved here and desperately need a dermatologist recommendation. HALP! Hey, all! Like I mentioned, I'm here in the city and am frantically looking for a dermatologist. I've been breaking out like crazy lately and have developed some kind of weird bumpy/rash type situation on my forehead around my hairline. No one I know sees a dermatologist regularly and my past one didn't have any connections in Chicago. The interwebs has unfortunately been super unreliable and unhelpful so far, so I naturally have come here for guidance. I will go ANYWHERE in the city and probably even the suburbs if need be!
PLEASE and THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

Check out Northwestern’s dermatologists—they have a variety of specialists and locations. I’ve also heard really good things about this place but I’ve not been so I can’t speak to it: https://www.chicagoderm1765.com/
Best Dermatologists in Chicago? Can anyone recommend a good dermatologist in Chicago? One that actually examines your skin and looks at the big picture instead of just prescribing antibiotics and topicals for acne? I would really love to find someone with a more holistic/homeopathic approach.
Any recommendations are appreciated!

[Wicker Park Dermatology](http://www.wickerparkderm.com/). My physician recommend that I get "mole mapping" done every 18 months, since I'm pretty high risk for skin cancer. It's actually phenomenal - they can track changes over time and determine if something needs to be addressed or not. I have insurance, so it's pretty cheap, but my fiancé didn't when he went in for skin issues. The Dr helped him out with a lot of samples and coupons for expensive meds that would've been several $k. They can be somewhat difficult to get into at the last minute, but if you're flexible you can probably snag a cancellation.
Does anyone have a good dermatologist that they could recommend in the Chicagoland area? I have been wanting to get mapped for awhile. Need to take care of my skin!
