Acne

The most common skin disorder in the United States, acne is a chronic inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceous follicles. This condition occurs when dead skin cells in the follicle fail to shed normally, blocking the secretion of naturally-occurring oils.

Eczema

Also known as atopic dermatitis, the first signs of eczema typically begin with redness and scaling of the cheeks. This itchy condition can be treated with prescription topical medications, skin care, and lifestyle changes to prevent future flare-ups.

Excessive Sweating

Sweating is essential for keeping your body from overheating, but those with hyperhidrosis will sweat even when they aren’t exerting themselves. Excessive sweating often occurs on the palms, feet, underarms, and head, but is treatable.

Moles, Benign Lumps and Bumps

These common skin conditions appear on nearly every adult and can vary in size, shape and color. While there’s no need to be overly concerned about moles, monitoring for changes is important as this may indicate growth of a melanoma.

Psoriasis

This chronic disease occurs when a person’s immune system causes skin cells to grow too rapidly. If the body is unable to shed the excess skin cells, this can lead to patches on areas of the body like the scalp, fingernails and knees.

Skin Tags

These benign lesions are not harmful and typically do not cause pain. This small flap of tissue hang off the skin by a stalk.

Skin Cancers

Melanoma is the most serious and deadly type of skin cancer, developing in the cells that produce the pigment that gives your skin its color. However, melanoma and other skin cancers like basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma can be curable with proper detection and treatment.

Warts

These benign, non-cancerous growths, are caused by a virus that has infected the top layer of skin. While anyone can get warts, some people may be more prone to developing them. Warts can go away on their own, but treatment is available to remove painful or quickly multiplying warts.

Seborrheic Dermatitis

Associated with scaly, flaky patches that can be red or yellow in color, this very common condition typically occurs on the scalp, ears, eyebrows, and around the nose and eyelids. Treatment can help control the flares and bring relief from symptoms.

Tinea Versicolor

This standard skin condition is caused by the overgrowth of yeast on the skin. This non-contagious condition, which results in skin spots, can be caused by hot, humid weather, sweating, oily skin or a weakened immune system.
