Acne Treatment in Covington, LA – Clearer Skin Starts at Grieshaber Dermatology
Acne is one of the most common skin conditions, affecting people of all ages—from teens to adults. While mild acne may improve with over-the-counter products, persistent or severe acne often requires professional treatment to prevent scarring and restore skin health.
At Grieshaber Dermatology in Covington, LA, Dr. Robert Grieshaber, Dr. Emily Grieshaber, Dr. Kristen Bice, and Alan Crawford, MPAS, PA-C, offer personalized acne care to help patients achieve clear, healthy, and confident skin.
What Causes Acne?
Acne occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil (sebum), dead skin cells, and bacteria. This buildup leads to various forms of breakouts, including:
- Whiteheads and blackheads
- Pustules and papules
- Cystic or nodular acne
Common contributing factors include:
- Hormonal fluctuations (e.g., puberty, menstrual cycles, pregnancy)
- Genetics and family history
- Stress and diet
- Skincare products that may clog pores (comedogenic)
Without proper treatment, acne can result in scarring and long-term skin damage, making early and consistent dermatologic care essential.
