Acne at Seriously Skin, Chagrin Falls

Although acne is typically associated with teenagers, this skin condition is no stranger to adult patients. In fact, adult acne is becoming more common, and patients are turning to dermatologists for assistance in controlling and eradicating the condition. The team at Seriously Skin in Cleveland, Ohio is happy to help patients of all ages with acne, and offer a solution when over-the-counter topicals, creams, and medications aren’t handling the problem.

Acne is an extremely common skin condition that is due to an excess of oil on the skin. It can also be triggered or aggravated by unclean skin and clogged pores. Patients who are dealing with acne can work with a dermatologist to develop a daily skincare routine that works for them. This typically involves several steps, including cleansing, clarifying, and moisturizing. There is a variety of products available through our practice that can help patients in setting up a regimen that works best with their lifestyle and their skin’s overall condition.

Patients may also speak with a dermatologist about regular treatments to aid in the cleansing and rejuvenation of the skin, which can assist in reducing acne blemishes. Microdermabrasion, chemical peels, and laser therapies may be considered for patients with severe acne, and they can be used in conjunction with a daily skincare regimen.

  • Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds.
  • Shampoo hair daily for oily hair.
  • Be gentle with the skin as aggressive scrubbing can irritate the skin.
  • Use non-abrasive cleansers.
  • Shower and wash the face after sweating to avoid blocked pores caused by perspiration.

If you are embarrassed or are experiencing anxiety or depression due to your acne, it may be time to seek the assistance of a qualified cosmetic dermatologist to successfully treat the condition and restore self-confidence. The team at Seriously Skin is proud to help new and existing patients by treating their acne and finding a solution to prevent further breakouts, as well as addressing acne scarring.
