Acne
Acne is a very common skin condition that manifests as pimples on the face, forehead, chest, shoulders and upper back. Acne can occur at any age. There are a variety of causes including genetics, fluctuating hormone levels, stress, high humidity and using oily or greasy personal care products.
Treatment:
If acne is not treated properly, it often leads to permanent scarring, which can sometimes be disfiguring and require cosmetic surgery in the future. Fortunately, there are many effective acne treatments our team can provide to control or cure your acne. Treatments may include topical therapies or oral medications.
Rosacea
Rosacea is a common skin condition that causes redness/blushing, flushing, visible blood vessels, and pimple- like lesions on your face. Symptoms may flare up for a few weeks or even months and then go away for a while.
Treatment:
Our team will develop an individualized treatment regimen for you that targets your unique symptoms of rosacea. Treatments include lifestyle modifications, over-the-counter medication, and prescription medications (both topical and oral).
Eczema/ Dermatitis & Psoriasis
Eczema/Dermatitis
Eczema/Dermatitis is a common inflammatory skin condition that causes itchiness, dry skin, scaly patches, rashes, blisters and possibly skin infections. This condition can occur at any age and may range from mild to severe. It is often triggered by various environmental and lifestyle factors. In some cases, patients may experience itching, inability to sleep, bacterial or viral skin infections, and interference with normal daily activities.
Treatment: Treatment for eczema/dermatitis must be catered specifically to each patient's level of severity, age, environmental factors, and other considerations. The most effective treatment regimens must be carefully designed by your Dermatologist. Our team will develop a highly tailored treatment program that is specific to you. Treatment options may include non-fragranced moisturizing creams, prescription topical medications, and, in severe cases, oral medications or injections.
Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a common, chronic (long-term) disease that may interfere with daily life, including sleep. Psoriasis most commonly causes areas of scaly red skin that may have associated itching or burning. Symptoms may flare up for weeks to month, become progressive and spread, and then go away temporarily.
Treatment: There are several treatment options for psoriasis. Our Dermatology team will work with you to develop your personalized treatment plan. This may include topical medications, light therapy, oral medications or injections.
Warts, Skin Growths, & Moles
Skin Growths: Warts, Skin Tags, and Others
There are many types of benign skin growths that occur on the skin. Most of these skin growths are harmless but they may cause irritation from being scratched or rubbed on clothing.
Treatment: Our team can treat your skin growths with various techniques, including cryotherapy, excision, shave removal, and other methods.
Moles
Moles (also called nevi) are very common and benign (harmless). There are many different types of moles that may appear anywhere on the body. A normal mole tends to be small (less than 6 mm in diameter), may be flat or raised, is brown or pink in color, has smooth borders, and does not change from month to month.
Moles that change should be evaluated by our team of Dermatology experts to ensure that it is just a mole, rather than melanoma, which is one of the most deadly forms of skin cancer. Our team has received specialized training in skin cancer diagnosis and management, and is able to identify the earliest signs of melanoma and other skin cancers.
Other Conditions
Our board-certified dermatology physician is an expert in the diagnosis and treatment of varying diseases of the skin, hair, and nails.
