All About Acne

All About Acne

For many teenagers, acne is always top of mind. At the doctor's office, it's not uncommon for teens to ask about their skin during a visit. With teenage patients, we're not just treating acne. We're also treating their self-esteem. In the wild world of acne, clogged pores meet hormonal havoc. Patients often want magic, and providers need a plan. In this episode, we extract the evidence and apply the right topical clinical wisdom to help manage acne in the office.

Joining us for this episode is the host of our sister podcast, fully in Spanish, Pediatrias en Linea, Carla Torres-Zegarra, MD. Dr. Torres-Zegarra specializes in dermatology at Children's Hospital Colorado and is the Director of the Pediatric Dermatology Fellowship at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.

Some highlights from this episode include:

  • The severity of acne in teenagers
  • Options for management and treatment in the primary care setting
  • The importance of diagnosis from the beginning
  • How to identify when acne is abnormal

Find the latest guidelines for acne management from the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology here. For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.
