Looking younger shouldn’t mean you still have acne

Looking younger shouldn’t mean you still have acne

See if you relate to this description:
You’re a grown-up. You’ve been one for some time now. Yet, you’re still struggling with the same skin problems you had before you got your driver’s license. And the stress and frustration of dealing with your breakouts is, well, making you break out!

And you’re not alone. Plenty of adults, men and women, feel like we were definitely lied to when we were told we’d outgrow our zits. In truth, acne can be a lifelong condition, and in many cases, needs to be properly treated under a physician’s care.

If you’re tired of spending your skin care time fighting adult acne, the Dermatology Practice at Advanced Specialty Care wants to help. Dr. Egan takes acne seriously, whether he’s treating teenagers or adults. He understands the scaring effects – physical and psychological — that this skin condition can cause.

You can make an appointment today at any of our offices by calling 203-438-4111 or 203-790-8930. If your concerns about your skin can’t wait, we even have same-day appointments.

While it’s true that acne treatment methods have improved over the years, nothing can guarantee the end of all breakouts forever. But with the personal care approach offered at ASC, effective therapy is possible. Here are some of the options you can discuss with Dr. Egan:
 Topical — We recommend medications (creams, gels) with ingredients that can improve your skin by killing bacteria, reducing oil and increasing cell turnover.
• Oral medication — The right antibiotic can be effective in controlling bacteria.
• Chemical peels — The process can help clean pores and control bacteria.
• Laser therapy — Lasers can also help with bacteria reduction.
And here’s a basic tip that can be part of your personalized exam and treatment plan:
• Change your skin care products – When we review the products and cosmetics that you currently use, we often find ingredients that can actually cause acne. We can recommend replacements products, some medicated, that won’t contribute to your breakouts.

It’s time to tell your skin to “Grow up!” Let us help you better manage your acne. You’ll wish you’d come in years ago.
