Acne in adolescence primarily flares up due to several overlapping factors…

In teenagers, acne is usually caused by:

🔹Increased sebum production during puberty 🔹Inflammation and bacteria
🔹Plugging of the follicles

While acne vulgaris is the most common form of acne (affecting up to 85% of tweens & teens), it’s key to identify and target the specific pathway your child is dealing with!

Things your tween or teen can do to help manage breakouts are washing their face twice daily with a gentle cleanser, using a non-comedogenic moisturizer and resisting the urge the pop.

BUT, it often takes stronger, prescription-strength treatments to clear acne. Determining the right treatment for your adolescent is the first step to boosting their self-esteem as well as avoiding long-term scarring.

💫 Schedule an appointment so we can evaluate your teen’s skin and come up with a custom plan to have them feeling their best!

It takes 2!

Everyone always asks “how long is recovery?” Full healing takes several months, but I always say that you will look like you are healing — visible bruising and swelling — for TWO weeks. Some mild swelling often persists beyond this, but typically not that you are having explain away.

Aside from the home run result shown in these photos 🔥 they also show about what you can expect 2 weeks following lower eyelid transconjunctival blepharoplasty. Already looks fabulous, but will get even better as the hint of bruising and swelling resolve more completely. Call ☎️ 781-591-4234 to schedule a consult

Curious what getting Dysport actually looks like👀?

Two of the most common questions we get is:
1) What’s the difference between Botox & Dysport?
2) What happens at an injection appointment?

The answer to number one is “the difference is they’re the same” 😉 and to answer number two, we’re giving you a peek behind the scenes of Dr. Wise’s recent appointment…

Neuromodulators, like Dysport, work beneath the surface to minimize, or even completely erase, years of developing wrinkles and fine lines.

While neuromodulators do paralyze the muscle, they don’t eliminate your ability to show emotion.

New to injectables? 👉 Not to worry!

At DermWellesley, we customize your Dysport or Botox treatment to your exact preferences, and help you achieve a natural, refreshed look.

How Fungal vs Bacterial Acne Differ ⤵️

Understanding the difference in these forms of acne is key to choosing the right treatment!

One of the easiest ways to spot Pityrosporum acne, aka fungal acne, is visually: it appears as small, uniform-sized bumps.

Bacterial acne shows up in varied sizes as whiteheads, blackheads, and deeper angry cysts.

Sweat and humidity can aggravate fungal acne so we tend to see it more in the summer.

Since the root cause is different, traditional acne treatments don’t work here. This needs to be treated with anti antifungal creams (like clotrimazole) or dandruff shampoos containing ketoconazole. If those products don’t work, then oral medications may be necessary.

☎️ If you’re struggling with acne, schedule an appointment by calling our office at 781.591.4234 or head to the link in bio!

Warmer weather is finally here and so are skin issues that thrive in summertime…

Impetigo is a highly contagious, superficial bacterial skin infection common in younger kids.

It usually happens through minor cuts, insect bites, scrapes, or rashes, and typically appears on the face.

If you suspect the infection with one of your little ones, make sure not share towels, washcloths, utensils, etc as it can easily pass to family members.

Mild cases are typically treated with topical ointments, and more severe or widespread cases may require oral antibiotics.

✨Remember, we are here for you and your kids when it comes to any skin concerns in the warmer weather!!
