Advances in Vitiligo Treatment
Vitiligo, a condition that causes the skin to lose pigment, leaving white patches, has historically been difficult to treat. Until recently, there were no FDA-approved treatments. Today, there are topical creams and injectable treatments that are showing real promise.
Biologics: A Game Changer for Psoriasis and Eczema
For years, conditions like psoriasis were treated with immunosuppressants like Methotrexate and Cyclosporine, which required regular monitoring for potential side effects. Now, biologic drugs offer a more targeted approach, with fewer side effects and greater effectiveness. Eczema patients also benefit from newer treatments like Dupixent, which offers relief for severe cases without the need for ancient, cumbersome therapies like tar treatments.
Accutane: Still a Miracle for Acne
One of the oldest and most reliable treatments in dermatology is Accutane for severe acne. Accutane remains one of the most effective treatments for those who don’t respond to other options. It’s highly regulated, but for the right patient, it’s life-changing.
With new treatments emerging regularly, dermatology continues to evolve. If you’ve been struggling with a chronic skin condition, it’s worth revisiting your options with a dermatologist to see if new treatments could help. If you live in or near Hollywood, Florida, contact Minars Dermatology to book at appointment by calling 954-284-0127.
