Acne
Acne is a prevalent inflammatory skin condition that develops when pores become blocked by oil, dead skin cells, or bacteria, leading to the formation of blackheads, whiteheads, cysts, or painful red bumps.
At Precision Dermatology, we frequently treat patients struggling with acne, a condition that can affect people of all ages. Hormonal changes, stress, genetics, and certain medications are common contributors. Acne often appears on the face, chest, back, and shoulders and can range from mild breakouts to severe, cystic forms. Left untreated, it can lead to scarring or dark spots, but with proper care, healthy, clear skin is achievable.
If you’re experiencing symptoms of skin disease or have concerns about your skin, our team is here for you. Start your journey to healthy skin today at Precision Dermatology!
What causes acne?
Acne develops when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. Factors like hormonal changes, stress, genetics, diet, and certain medications can exacerbate acne.
What treatment options are available for acne?
Treatment options vary depending on the severity of acne and may include topical creams (like retinoids or benzoyl peroxide), oral antibiotics, hormonal therapies, or isotretinoin for severe cases. Professional treatments like chemical peels, laser therapy, or extractions can also help manage acne.
How long does it take to see results from acne treatment?
It depends on the treatment and the individual, but most acne treatments take 4–12 weeks to show noticeable improvement. Consistency and patience are key to achieving clear skin.
Can acne scars be treated?
Yes, acne scars can be treated using advanced dermatological techniques such as microneedling, chemical peels, laser therapy, and fillers. Your dermatologist can recommend the most effective option based on your skin type and scar severity.
At Precision Dermatology we offer exceptional care for common and complex skin problems and provide a broad range of medical and surgical dermatology.
