What Is Acne?

Acne affects tens of millions of people in the United States each year, making it one of the most common skin conditions in the country. While many cases are mild and may be controlled with an over-the-counter regimen, some patients require prescription treatment due to the risk of scarring. Acne commonly presents with a combination of inflamed pimples, whiteheads, blackheads, and cysts. Caused by a combination of bacteria, excess oil production, hormonal changes, and clogged pores, it commonly affects teens but can happen at any age. Acne can appear anywhere but most frequently occurs on the face, chest, and back. To help return your skin to its naturally luminous appearance, Dr. Payne is excited to offer numerous therapy options, ranging from personalized at-home skincare systems to prescription medications, chemical peels, and laser treatments. Schedule your dermatology appointment at Flourish Dermatology and Aesthetics to get started.

What Treatments for Acne are Available? The Flourish Approach

You may have already tried countless over-the-counter acne treatments, only to be disappointed with their results. Flourish Dermatology And Aesthetics offers many treatment solutions to control and maintain acne and clear up its symptoms. For milder cases of acne, prescription drugs such as topical creams, lotions, and solutions that contain salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, sulfur, and retinoids can be helpful. There are also oral medications that can be effective for moderate acne, as well as isotretinoin (Accutane) for severe cases of scarring acne. In addition to topical and oral prescriptions, chemical peels and laser therapies have also proven effective for the treatment of acne. Not only can laser therapy help deep clean and kill dead skin cells beneath the dermal layer, but it can also decrease redness and other pigmentation issues connected with acne and scarring. Extractions and chemical peels can also be a helpful addition to your acne treatment regimen. For cosmetic acne treatments including chemicals and lasers, note that multiple treatments are often recommended for maximal results.

My first visit went really well. The receptionist was really sweet and Dr. Payne was very thorough in diagnosing my symptoms and creating a treatment plan. I look forward to seeing the results of the treatment plan provided.

Dr. Payne was amazing! She was very knowledgeable, informative, personable, and welcoming. I’m very much looking forward to my next visit to have my moles removed. She was more well versed in some of my skincare issues that other dermatologists had previously dismissed. I highly recommend her, and plan on referring all of my friends to her practice.
