Midtown Acne Treatment

Are you living an acne nightmare you can’t seem to shake and need rapid response treatment, NSS Dermatology PLLC can help. Our dermatologists prescribe the best personalized Midtown acne treatment in New York. Let us ease your emotional distress and help you control your breakouts.

Understanding acne

If you have acne, your problem stems from either of two scenarios: dead skin cells blocking your pores or an overactive sebaceous gland producing too much sebum (natural oil). Both events encourage acne flare-up because it creates a conducive environment for bacteria to thrive and ultimately clog your pores.

Acne triggered by oily skin may have several underlying factors such as hormonal imbalance, inherited genes, and bacteria playing a role. For us to understand the dynamics of your acne, we start with some background probing questions. We do this to understand your struggle with the condition and identify possible triggers. Do you have any of these symptoms?

  • Swelling
  • Pustules
  • Blackheads
  • Nodules
  • Redness
  • Whiteheads
  • Cysts

Types of treatment for acne

Our dermatologists use a variety of treatment modalities to accelerate skin-cell turnover and curb oil production. With this, we can reduce inflammation and eliminate blemishes to prevent the resurgence of acne. For this we use:

  • Scar treatment therapy - We use laser treatment and dermabrasion techniques to improve your acne scars.
  • Oral medications - We prescribe Accutane capsules for stubborn acne, especially nodules.
  • Topical treatments - Our recommended topical creams and ointments will help dissolve layers of dead skin and improve your scars and dark spots.

Acne extraction process

Our dermatologists also perform procedural extraction as a form of Midtown acne treatment. For this, we utilize a specialized medical instrument to unclog acne soft plug and extract any bacteria, dead skin cells, or oil buildup. Sometimes we use a sterilized syringe needle to do the extraction.

Depending on the condition of your lesions and blemishes, we will use the wet method, which involves facial steam treatment. The procedure helps to open your pores and loosen up debris for convenient extraction, which reduces trauma to your skin. If swelling and redness occur, we usually recommend cold compression treatment to alleviate these symptoms.
