Treatment of Common Skin Conditions Found in Children and Teens
What is it?
Our team warmly welcomes younger patients, including infants, small children, adolescents and teenagers, to our dermatology clinics. We specialize in managing common skin issues for these age groups, such as acne, atopic dermatitis, diaper rashes, birthmarks, warts, molluscum contagiosum, impetigo, contact dermatitis, hemangiomas and hair or nail problems.
We also diagnose and treat skin infections related to allergic reactions, including those caused by poison ivy, poison oak and environmental allergies. Our treatment options range from oral or topical antihistamines and allergy testing to minor surgical procedures like mole removal, biopsies and laser treatments for specific concerns.
How is it treated?
We emphasize a patient-centered approach to help reduce anxiety for both the child and their guardian, providing age-appropriate explanations for each situation. We value your involvement in making decisions about your child's health and are always available to answer any questions you may have. Chapel Hill Dermatology Partners serves the Chapel Hill and it's surrounding communities.
