Acne Care: Clinical Support for Clearer, Healthier Skin

Treating Acne with Medical Expertise and Compassion

Acne is one of the most common concerns among adolescents and can impact self-confidence, mood, and daily life. At Pediatric Associates Medical Group, we offer evidence-based, physician-led acne care designed to meet the needs of growing teens.

WHAT CAUSES ACNE?

Acne develops when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Hormonal changes during adolescence, stress, genetics, and diet can all contribute to breakouts. Acne can range from mild blackheads and whiteheads to more severe inflammatory pimples and cysts.

Our goal is to treat acne early and effectively—minimizing long-term scarring and promoting healthy skin.

WHAT TREATMENT OPTIONS DO YOU OFFER?

Our acne treatment program includes:

• Skin evaluation by a pediatric medical provider
• Topical or oral medication management (e.g., retinoids, antibiotics, hormonal support)
• Lifestyle and diet counseling to identify potential acne triggers
• Referral for therapeutic facials or LED therapy, when appropriate
• Ongoing follow-up to monitor progress and adjust the plan

All care is customized based on your child’s skin type, severity of symptoms, and response to previous treatments.

INTEGRATED, SUPPORTIVE CARE

We understand that acne is not just a skin issue—it can affect self-esteem and quality of life. Our team provides compassionate, judgment-free care, helping your teen gain control of their skin and feel more confident in their own body.
