Persistent skin issues like hives, fungal infections, or recurring growths often need more than over-the-counter remedies. I focus on accurate clinical diagnosis to build effective, long-term management plans for your specific needs.

Keratosis Pilaris, or KP, presents as small, rough bumps on the skin. Management involves a consistent routine of gentle chemical exfoliation with ingredients like lactic or glycolic acid, followed by a rich moisturizer containing urea or glycerin to soften the keratin plugs.

Urticaria, or hives, can be acute or chronic and is caused by histamine release in the skin. While often triggered by allergens, chronic cases can be complex. It is important to get a proper diagnosis, as in rare cases it can signal a more serious condition.

This infographic provides practical advice for managing Urticaria. Simple lifestyle adjustments like avoiding tight clothing, known triggers, and alcohol can help reduce flare-ups, alongside a medically supervised treatment plan with antihistamines.

Molluscum contagiosum is a common viral skin infection that causes small, painless bumps and is often mistaken for acne. It is contagious through direct contact, and I offer in-clinic treatments like cryotherapy or curettage to prevent its spread and resolve the lesions.

Fungal infections are a frequent concern I address in my clinic. This post announces a live session where I discuss the diagnosis and management of common infections like ringworm and athlete's foot, emphasizing the need for proper treatment to prevent recurrence.

As a speaker on the topic of Urticaria, I focus on educating both patients and peers about its causes and management. Understanding this condition is the first step toward controlling its symptoms and improving quality of life.

Xanthelasma are distinct yellow cholesterol deposits that appear on the eyelids, often linked to high cholesterol levels. I provide several methods for their removal, including precise laser ablation, to restore a smooth appearance to the skin.

About Managing Chronic & Specific Conditions

When dealing with persistent issues like Urticaria or stubborn viral bumps like Molluscum, guesswork is your biggest enemy. I start by ruling out underlying causes, checking everything from lifestyle triggers to immunity markers, before we discuss any procedural treatment. My goal is to get you comfortable in your skin again, not just mask the symptoms.
