Dermatological care has already been deeply impacted by the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) epidemic. The consequences may continue long after the epidemic resolves. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the change of dermatological practice since the COVID-19 outbreak is almost controlled in mainland China. Patients requesting a dermatology outpatient visit from January to May in 2019 and 2020 were retrospectively investigated. The number of patients decreased significantly shortly after the COVID-19 outbreak, and it started to increase after the spread of coronavirus was gradually controlled at the end of February in China. The three most common diseases were atopic dermatitis (11.0%), acne (10.2%), and warts (7.2%) in 2019, while acne (8.9%), warts (5.8%), and acute urticaria (5.6%) in 2020. The most statistically significant increased reasons for requesting an outpatient visit from March to May in 2020 was pet-related dermatophytoses, followed by cosmetic consultation and irritated contact dermatitis, an increase of 88.2%, 84.7%, and 58.8%, respectively, over the same period of 2019. Understanding the trends and impacts of dermatologic diseases on patients and health systems during this epidemic will allow for better preparation of dermatologists in the future.
