Acne Treatment at Biltmore Dermatology

Personalized Solutions for Clear, Healthy Skin

Acne can be a persistent concern for individuals of all ages. At Biltmore Dermatology, we understand the impact it can have on your confidence and overall well-being. Our team is dedicated to providing customized acne treatment plans tailored to your unique skin needs.

Understanding Acne

Acne arises when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to various types of blemishes:

  • Whiteheads & Blackheads: Non-inflammatory clogged pores.
  • Papules & Pustules: Inflamed lesions that may be tender.
  • Nodules & Cysts: Deep-seated, painful lesions that can lead to scarring.

Common areas affected include the face, chest, back, shoulders, and neck.

Common Causes of Acne

Several factors can contribute to the development of acne:

  • Hormonal Fluctuations: Changes during puberty, menstruation, or stress.
  • Excess Oil Production: Overactive sebaceous glands.
  • Diet & Lifestyle: High intake of sugary or processed foods.
  • Genetics: Family history can play a role.

Customized Treatment Options

At Biltmore Dermatology, we offer a range of treatments to address acne effectively:

Topical Treatments

  • Retinoids: Promote cell turnover to prevent clogged pores.
  • Benzoyl Peroxide: Targets acne-causing bacteria.
  • Salicylic Acid: Helps exfoliate and clear pores.

Oral Medications

  • Antibiotics: Reduce bacteria and inflammation.
  • Hormonal Therapies: Address hormone-related acne in females.
