What it is
Acne — in adolescence and adulthood; rosacea and facial redness; atopic and contact eczema; psoriasis; and other inflammatory or infectious skin conditions.
Treatment can include topical therapies, systemic medication, light-based procedures and an adapted skincare routine.
How it works
A thorough history and examination form the basis; where needed, additional tests such as swabs, patch tests or blood tests are arranged.
Together, we agree on a treatment plan that fits your everyday life, with regular follow-ups to assess progress and tolerability.
What to expect
- Many therapies need several weeks before changes can be assessed.
- You receive a clear written plan for your treatment and skincare.
- Side effects of medication are discussed and monitored.
Aftercare
- Use therapies consistently as prescribed, even when the skin improves.
- Note possible triggers and bring the notes to your follow-up.
- Contact the practice if symptoms worsen or side effects occur.
