Acne

A common inflammatory skin condition that occurs when pores become clogged, resulting in whiteheads, blackheads, cysts or red bumps.

What is it?

At Dermatologists of Greater Columbus, acne is among the most frequently treated conditions. Acne develops when the skin gets blocked with oil, dead skin cells, or bacteria, leading to inflamed, red or pus-filled bumps on the skin's surface. Factors like hormonal fluctuations, genetics, and certain drugs can also trigger acne. These bumps generally appear on the face, neck, chest, and back, varying from mild to severe.


Our dermatologists, serving areas including Dublin, Columbus, Canal Winchester, Urbana, Circleville, Washington Courthouse, Grove City and Marysville, Ohio, are experienced in developing comprehensive and personalized treatment plans for acne. 


How is it treated?

Acne may not be a life-threatening condition, but it can greatly affect your self-confidence. But don't worry - we're here to assist! From prescribed creams and oral medication, to microdermabrasion and laser procedures - our medical and cosmetic treatment options can help you achieve clearer skin. Regardless of the approach, we can aid in clearing your acne and preventing further flare-ups.


Our board-certified, physician-led teams at Dermatologists of Greater Columbus will identify your specific type of acne and recommend a treatment plan customized to your specific skin concerns. Schedule an appointment now to fast-track your path to clear skin.
