This is the transitional stage of physical and physiological human development generally occurring between puberty and adulthood. Hormonal changes occurring during puberty result in various physical and psychological changes, affecting their social relationship. At this stage, external appearance is of immense concern to them. As such, any dermatological condition can extremely affect their psychological status. This study was conducted to give an insight on the various dermatological conditions of the adolescent age groups and their incidence.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Study design: Descriptive study \u2013 Cross\u2010sectional study. Three hundred patients between the ages of 10 and 19\u2009years, attending the tertiary care center in South India, were included in the study.

Infections\/infestations (39%) were the most predominant dermatoses followed by acne (17.67%), eczema (9.67%), insect bite reactions (IBRs) (7%), keratinization disorders (6.67%), polymorphic light eruptions (PLEs) (4.33%), urticaria (4.33%), and pigmentary disorders (4.33%).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study gives an insight of various dermatological conditions among the adolescent age groups. Females more commonly presented with dermatoses. The most common dermatoses were infections.
