Comment Icon "I recently had a Fraxel treatment on my face and chest at Dr. Adam Nabatian's office, and I am beyond thrilled with the results. My skin hasn't looked this good in years! Following the treatment, I experienced a few days of downtime, with my skin being very red and puffy for the first two days. However, it quickly subsided by the third day, leaving me with only minor redness for a week. Impressively, the treatment greatly reduced some scarring I had from injection sites from previous procedures done elsewhere. Dr. Nabatian, along with his medical assistant and office management team, were exceptionally warm and professional throughout the entire process. I tend to get very anxious before undergoing laser procedures, but their wonderful attention and bedside manner eased my anxiety greatly. They made sure I felt comfortable and well-informed at every step. I highly recommend Dr. Nabatian for anyone considering dermatological treatments. The quality of care, combined with the visible results of the treatment, makes this experience truly five-star. Thank you, Dr. Nabatian and team, for such a positive and transformative experience! "

Comment Icon "Dr. Marchbein has been my dermatologist for 12 years. Over a decade ago, during an appointment made for an unrelated reason, Dr Marchbein spotted and skillfully removed an in situ melanoma that I didn't even know I had. It saved my life. Since then, she has provided the most amazing care in managing both my skin cancer history and other skin conditions that have arisen. She is so warm, so knowledgable, and goes the extra mile for her patients. Her office is beautiful and so well-run, appointments are never delayed, and she always spends as much time as I need answering any and all questions that I have. In a medical world where you often have to be your own advocate, Dr Marchbein stands apart in caring so much about her patients. There is no doctor that I value more in my life, and no dermatologist I could more highly recommend. She is THE BEST!!!!! "

Comment Icon "Dr Nazarian was phenomenal. I have visited multiple dermatologists in the city and she was by far the best. I have to question anyone that gives her anything other than 5 stars (I would have given her 6). I never felt rushed, she explained all the options for treatment, and then helped me find the best fit for me. I was offered a product that was sold in the office, but was told only to buy it if the copay for my prescription medications was too high... !! Amazing and thoughtful. I would absolutely return (I have a followup appointment in 1 month) and I'm recommending her to everyone.. which might be tough since it took me 4 weeks to even get an appointment with her (only downside!). Great overall experience. "

Acne is a common skin condition that is caused by oil and dead skin cells blocking the hair follicles. This blockage can lead to blackheads, whiteheads and pimples. Acne primarily appears on the face, but it can also appear on the back, shoulders and chest. Although acne is more common in teenagers, you can get acne at any age.

The main causes of acne are excess production of sebum (a type of oil produced by the skin), bacteria, inflammation and clogged hair follicles. Our face, back, chest and shoulders have the most oil glands, which is why acne occurs in these areas.

Acne can be worsened by factors like stress, certain medications, dietary choices and hormonal changes. The significant hormonal changes that happen during puberty are why teenagers are often afflicted with acne.

Acne appears in a few different forms. The common types of acne include:

  • Whiteheads - These are pores that are plugged and closed
  • Blackheads - These are pores that are plugged and open
  • Papules - These are small, inflamed bumps. Typically red in appearance and tender to the touch.
  • Pimples or pustules - These are papules filled with pus at the tip
  • Nodules - Solid and painful lumps under the surface of the skin
  • Cysts - Painful, pus-filled lumps under the surface of the skin

Acne can also sometimes have complications like scarring after healing.

If over-the-counter acne treatment options aren't working, the best provider to see for acne treatment is a dermatologist. Dermatologists specialize in the health and treatment of skin conditions, and acne is one of the most common conditions they treat. They can help control your acne and create a personalized treatment plan that works for your skin type and needs. Seeking professional help from a dermatologist cannot only help manage your acne but also help mitigate potential scarring. Dermatologist intervention is especially essential for persistent, severe or cystic acne.

A dermatologist can provide a level of care and expertise that you can't get from over-the-counter acne treatment. Some of the key benefits of seeing a dermatologist for acne include:

  • Personalized treatment - A dermatologist can look at your skin type and develop a personalized treatment plan for you. This treatment may include skin care routines, prescription medications and acne therapies. In short, a dermatologist can create the most comprehensive treatment plan possible to address your skin concerns.
  • Prescription options - Over-the-counter acne options may not be enough for some acne cases. Dermatologists can prescribe topical or oral acne medications if necessary.
  • Avoid scarring - A dermatologist has an in-depth understanding of the skin and treating skin conditions. By creating a targeted skin care plan for your acne, you can minimize scarring that occurs from long-term or severe acne that goes untreated.
  • Acne therapy options - If necessary, dermatologists can offer therapeutic acne interventions like light therapy, chemical peels, extraction and steroid injections for nodules and cysts.

Your dermatologist appointment will likely begin with a discussion about your health history and skin concerns. They may ask about your lifestyle, diet and skin care products you're currently using. Your dermatologist can then conduct a thorough assessment of your skin to determine what is needed for treatment. You and your dermatologist can then discuss potential treatment options to determine what is best for you.

Acne treatment is not typically a one-size-fits-all solution. A personalized and multifaceted approach is needed. Treatment options may include a combination of one or more of the following:

  • A skin care routine - Your dermatologist may recommend a multistep skin care routine that is tailored to your skin type and addresses the root cause of your acne.
  • Medication - They may also recommend prescription medication. Acne medication may be topical or oral.
  • Procedures - Your dermatologist may recommend certain procedures like light therapy or chemical peels for more severe cases.
  • Lifestyle changes - Your dermatologist may also recommend certain lifestyle changes like showering right after exercising, avoiding picking or touching your face, washing your pillowcase regularly, drinking enough water and more to help your skin clear up.
