description Atopic dermatitis (AD) is one of the most common skin conditions encountered by dermatologists. Skin of color (SOC) patients, in particular, are 50% more likely to visit a dermatologist for AD than non-SOC patients.

Herein, we present this Art of Prevention piece focused on the epidemiology, presentation, treatment, and management of AD in skin of color patients.
