Acne Treatment

Acne can be a frustrating issue to deal with. You can feel embarrassed by acne and equally embarrassed by some of the scars that acne can leave. When it comes to treating your skin and getting the clear skin you’ve always wanted, you have options. You don’t have to deal with acne on your own and there are many ways that your dermatologist can help you achieve clear skin that you can be excited to show off.

Treating Acne and Acne Scars

Acne treatment isn’t one size fits all and the process can be different for everyone. It can be difficult when over-the-counter products just aren’t cutting it and you may not be sure how you can get rid of acne. There are many different methods that your dermatologist might recommend, and they may even suggest trying more than one method at a time.

The treatment plan that your dermatologist may suggest could depend on your age, the type of acne you deal with, and the severity of your issue. There are topical medications your dermatologist might suggest, including:

  • Retinoids
  • Antibiotics
  • Azelaic acid
  • Salicylic acid
  • Dapsone

You may also need to take antibiotics orally to treat infection and reduce bacteria. Your dermatologist can also recommend certain therapies that not only treat acne but help get rid of acne scars. This could be light therapy, chemical peels, drainage and extraction, or steroid injection. Your doctor might recommend you try more than one method until you get the results that you’re looking for.
