Abstract

Purpose of review: Social media provides an accessible and increasingly popular avenue for sharing healthcare information, networking, and outreach in dermatology. We provide an overview of prominent social media platforms, also known as applications or apps, as well as a discussion of their influence and implications for the field.

Recent findings: The various collaborative features of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat, and other emerging platforms have proven appealing to organizations and users seeking dermatology-related content and medical advice. However, the potential for propagation of inaccurate or even dangerous information is high.

Summary: Despite the risks associated with social media usage, dermatology can benefit from opportunities to connect and engage with audiences through these platforms. Dermatologists should be encouraged to increase their presence on multiple social media apps to dispel and counteract misleading posts with evidence-based knowledge.

皮肤科的社交媒体和流行的社交媒体平台概述。

综述目的:社交媒体为皮肤病学提供了一个可访问且日益流行的渠道，用于共享医疗保健信息、网络和外展。我们提供了一个突出的社交媒体平台的概述，也被称为应用程序或应用程序，以及他们的影响和对该领域的影响的讨论。最近的发现:事实证明，Facebook、Twitter、Instagram、TikTok、YouTube、Snapchat和其他新兴平台的各种协作功能对寻求皮肤病学相关内容和医疗建议的组织和用户具有吸引力。然而，传播不准确甚至危险信息的可能性很高。总结:尽管使用社交媒体存在风险，但皮肤病学可以从通过这些平台与受众建立联系和互动的机会中受益。应该鼓励皮肤科医生增加他们在多个社交媒体应用程序上的存在感，以基于证据的知识消除和抵消误导性的帖子。

期刊介绍： This journal intends to review the most significant recent developments in the field of dermatology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by expert international authors, the journal aims to serve all those involved in the diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of dermatologic conditions. We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas across the field, such as epidemiology, surgery, pharmacology, clinical trial design, and pediatrics. Section Editors select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. We also provide commentaries from well-known figures in the field, and an Editorial Board of more than 20 internationally diverse members suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research.
