Acne can be an embarrassing condition for anyone, regardless of their age. Although most often associated with adolescents and teenagers, acne can affect people of all ages.

We can help you treat and eliminate your acne.

Acne Treatment Options

There are a number of ways to treat acne. Numerous over the counter options exist and some work more effectively than others. However, dermatologist recommended treatments have proven to be much more consistently effective. Physicians can diagnose the grade of your acne based on its symptoms. Then they can prescribe powerful medications -- either topical or oral -- that can limit the factors that cause acne like excessive oil production, hormones, and bacteria. There are also other options like medical peels, light therapy, and laser treatments. 

After consulting with the dermatologists at Chattanooga Skin and Cancer Clinic and receiving your diagnosis, the correct treatment options for you or your loved one will be discussed and determined.
