Acne

Acne is a common skin condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, leading to the formation of pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and inflamed lesions. Acne most commonly appears on the face, but it can also affect the chest, back, shoulders, and other areas of the body.

At the California Dermatology Institute, we understand the physical and emotional impact that acne can have on individuals. Our experienced acne dermatologist provides comprehensive acne treatments tailored to your specific needs, aiming to clear existing breakouts, prevent future acne flare-ups, and improve the overall health and appearance of your skin.

Treatment for acne may include topical medications, oral medications, chemical peels, and extraction of comedones. Our dermatology providers will evaluate your acne severity, identify contributing factors, such as hormonal imbalances or lifestyle triggers, and develop a personalized treatment plan for you.

It is important to note that acne treatments require consistency and patience, as results may take time to manifest. Our dermatology providers will guide you through the process, monitor your progress, and make necessary adjustments to ensure optimal outcomes. Our acne dermatologist provides guidance on proper skincare routines and lifestyle modifications that can help manage acne and promote healthier skin.
