Types of Dermatology Acne Treatments
Dermatologists offer a range of acne treatments, each designed to tackle different aspects of the condition:
- Topical Treatments: These include prescription-strength creams and gels that contain active ingredients like retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, and antibiotics to reduce bacteria and inflammation.
- Oral Medications: For more severe cases, oral antibiotics or isotretinoin may be prescribed to control acne from within the body.
- Laser and Light Therapy: These treatments reduce acne-causing bacteria and inflammation, often with minimal downtime.
- Chemical Peels: These involve applying a chemical solution to exfoliate the skin and unclog pores, improving skin texture and appearance.
- Extraction Procedures: Professional extraction of blackheads and whiteheads can help clear clogged pores and reduce breakouts.
