Nearly everyone has had some experience with acne. Most people who develop acne during their adolescent years can expect the condition to subside during their late teens or early adulthood. For many others, however, acne persists through adulthood with chronic breakouts and scarring, becoming a source of embarrassment. Dr. Nolis Arkoulakis and Dr. Lee Elber both possess years of training and experience creating effective, safe acne treatment plans for their patients. Patients from Middlesex County, New Brunswick, Edison, as well as other New Jersey areas looking for a solution to their acne problems can schedule a private consultation with our physicians by contacting Aesthetic Solutions today.
A breakout of acne occurs when sebaceous glands underneath the skin become overactive and produce excessive amounts of oil. A normal amount of sebaceous gland activity produces enough oil to keep the skin smooth and soft. But, when the glands produce too much oil, skin pores can become enlarged and clogged, contributing to the development of acne.
While typically not a threat to a person's overall health, chronic acne can be a burden for those who suffer from it. Many people become self-conscious because of their acne problem, sometimes feeling so embarrassed that they avoid going out in public. Acne outbreaks can also cause damage to the skin’s structure, resulting in poor skin texture, permanent discoloration, and scarring; acne can be especially damaging to the skin when it is squeezed, picked at, or otherwise irritated. To help patients avoid further embarrassment and skin damage, Drs. Arkoulakis and Elber can recommend safe acne treatment options when patients visit their New Brunswick and Edison, New Jersey-area practice.
Dr. Nolis Arkoulakis and Dr. Lee Elber understand that persistent, chronic acne can cause constant self-awareness and embarrassment, as well as permanent aesthetic damage. They are committed to helping these patients follow through with acne treatment plans for controlling their acne. Contact our Edison and New Brunswick, New Jersey-area practice today to schedule a consultation with our doctors.
