Understanding acne

Acne is a common skin condition in which hair follicles clog and form pimples, most often on the face, neck, back, chest, and shoulders. It's most prevalent in teens and young adults, but it isn't limited to them, and hormonal changes are a common contributor.

Treatment is tiered: nonprescription topical products handle much mild acne, prescription medicines and creams treat the stubborn and more severe end, and dermatologists bring options like laser treatment for specific situations. Persistent or scarring acne deserves treatment, not just time.

Finding the right provider

A primary-care provider can treat much acne and refer onward; dermatologists handle severe, persistent, or scarring cases with the fullest toolbox. If acne is affecting your confidence or leaving marks, that's reason enough to book. ProviderQuoHealth shows credentials, accepted insurance, and accepting-new-patients status on every profile.

Acne is not an emergency; for any sudden severe symptoms of other kinds, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. Don't search a directory.

FAQ

Frequently asked

When should I see a provider about acne?

When nonprescription products haven't worked after a fair trial, when acne is severe or painful, or when it's leaving scars or dark marks. A clinician can step up treatment considerably beyond what's on the shelf.

Do I need a dermatologist, or can my regular provider treat acne?

Primary-care providers treat much acne; dermatologists take the severe, persistent, and scarring end. Either is a reasonable start, and both appear in this directory.

Does acne only affect teenagers?

No; while it's most common in teens and young adults, adults get acne too, and hormonal changes are a frequent contributor at any age. Treatment options exist across the board.
