Acne

Description

• Acne can appear as clogged pores, whiteheads, blackheads, or painful inflamed bumps. At INTEGRITY Skin & DermCare, we offer personalized acne treatment plans to calm inflammation, prevent new breakouts, and improve overall skin clarity.
  For deep, painful, or stubborn cystic acne lesions, a small Kenalog (steroid) injection can be used to rapidly reduce swelling and tenderness—often improving the spot within 24–48 hours.

When should I come in? 

Consider scheduling an appointment if you have:

• Persistent breakouts or clogged pores

• A painful, inflamed cyst or “underground” pimple

• Acne that is not improving with over-the-counter products

• Scarring or dark spots from acne

• A single stubborn bump before an event (Kenalog injection can help flatten it quickly)

Come in sooner if you notice:

• Severe tenderness

• Rapid swelling

• Signs of infection

• Acne impacting confidence or daily comfort
