Warts are skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), which is spread through skin-to-skin contact. There are over 100 types of HPV causing warts on different body parts. Despite no cure for HPV, treatments such as over-the-counter medicines, cryotherapy, and laser treatment are available. Our medical providers and nurse practitioners can provide the right treatment for you after examining your warts. They can also suggest the necessary preventative measures.
Acne is a prevalent skin condition that can impact anyone regardless of their age. It has various underlying causes such as hormonal changes, a buildup of dead skin cells, excess oil production, bacterial infection and inflammation. Although there are plenty of over-the-counter treatments available, persistent acne should be handled using medical-grade skincare products or RF microneedling. These can effectively address the root causes of your acne.
Eczema, or dermatitis, irritates and inflames the skin. Atopic dermatitis is the most common type and typically results in dry, itchy, and inflamed skin. Unfortunately, eczema cannot be cured, but it can be controlled and managed through various treatment options. These treatment options can include anti-inflammatory drugs, moisturizers, and topical medications. Finding the right treatment for eczema is not a one-size-fits-all approach and may require some trial and error, but it’s worth it to manage the symptoms.
Hives, also known as urticaria, are itchy welts on the skin caused by various factors such as allergies, stress, medications, heat, and infections. They can occur on any part of the body, and they can be very uncomfortable. Dermatologists can diagnose the cause of hives and provide treatments, including topical antihistamines, corticosteroid injections, oral corticosteroids, or other treatments.
Fungal infections vary in type and can affect different parts of the body. These types of infections are caused by dermatophytes, a type of fungi. Although they are generally harmless, they can sometimes overgrow and result in an infection. Symptoms can include itchiness, redness, scaling, and cracking. Treatment involves antifungal creams or oral antifungal medication. Common fungal infections can include athlete’s foot or ringworm.
Rosacea affects the face and is a chronic condition that gets worse over time. The common symptoms include redness on the forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. It also results in skin dryness, thickening, and scaling, causing burning and stinging sensations. Although it can’t be cured, many treatments can manage its symptoms, ranging from topical medications to oral antibiotics and IPL therapy. Therefore, it is essential to consult with a medical professional to recommend the most suitable method to control your symptoms based on its severity.
A rash is a skin condition that causes changes in color, texture, or appearance. It may affect a specific area of the body or spread throughout the skin. Rashes are commonly caused by skin infections, irritants, or allergies. Visit a dermatologist or healthcare professional to identify the underlying cause and obtain effective treatment. Depending on the cause and severity of the rash, you may need antibiotics, antihistamines, creams, or ointments.
Skin tags and moles are common and benign growths on the skin that can often cause unwanted embarrassment and discomfort. Skin tags appear as small flesh-colored growths, usually in areas where the skin rubs together, such as the neck, armpits, and groin. Moles, on the other hand, present themselves as dark brown or black, flat or raised growths commonly found on the face, neck, chest, and back.
While these growths may not pose any immediate danger, some individuals may want them removed for aesthetic purposes. We provide various treatments for skin tags and moles including laser surgery, freezing, and burning. Additionally, we can provide helpful tips on how to prevent skin tags, including avoiding wearing loose clothing and minimizing skin friction.
