Eczema, Psoriasis, Acne, and Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Eczema, psoriasis, acne, and hidradenitis suppurativa are four common skin conditions that can cause discomfort and affect the appearance of the skin. At our clinic, we offer a range of treatments to help manage these conditions and improve the appearance and health of your skin.


Eczema is a type of inflammatory skin condition that causes dry, itchy, and red skin. It is often accompanied by a rash and can occur on any part of the body, but is most commonly found on the face, hands, and feet. Eczema can be triggered by a variety of factors, including allergies, stress, and changes in temperature or humidity.


Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that causes cells to build up rapidly on the surface of the skin, leading to thick, red patches covered with silvery scales. It can occur anywhere on the body, but is most commonly found on the scalp, elbows, and knees. Psoriasis is often triggered by stress, infections, and certain medications.


Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages. It is caused by overactive oil glands in the skin, which can lead to clogged pores and the development of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. Acne is most commonly found on the face, neck, chest, and back.


Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic skin condition that causes painful, inflamed lumps to form under the skin. It is most commonly found in the armpits, groin, and buttocks and is thought to be caused by the blockage of sweat glands.


If you are experiencing any of these skin conditions, our dermatologist can help. We offer a range of treatments, including topical medications, light therapy, and injectables, to help manage these conditions and improve the appearance and health of your skin. Contact us today for an appointment.
