The common symptoms of acne include:
Acne might appear on your upper back, shoulders, chest, forehead, or face. It may be mild, moderate, or severe and long-lasting when left untreated. Acne commonly causes scarring, and it could make you feel self-conscious.
Anyone can develop acne and the exact cause isn’t always clear. However, risk factors for having acne include:
Your risk of getting acne may also increase if cell phones, tight collars, helmets, or other items rub against your skin.
To diagnose acne or its scarring and develop an effective treatment, Dr. Nawab reviews your medical history and symptoms. She examines your skin in areas containing acne or acne scars and asks about your lifestyle, treatment preferences, and desired outcome. Dr. Nawab then develops a personalized acne treatment that matches your needs.
