My child has small bumps that won`t go away. Could it be molluscum contagiosum?

“It could be. Molluscum contagiosum is a common viral skin infection that causes small, smooth, flesh-colored or pink bumps. It`s especially common in children and can spread through close skin-to-skin contact or by sharing items like towels.”

- Dr. Nguyen

While molluscum often goes away on its own over time, new bumps can continue to appear, and some children may benefit from treatment, especially if the bumps are spreading, becoming irritated, or causing discomfort.

If you`re unsure what your child has, or the bumps aren`t improving, a dermatology provider can examine the skin, confirm the diagnosis, and discuss the most appropriate treatment options. Call our office or book online at the link in our bio to schedule an appointment.

When it comes to hair loss, there`s no shortage of misinformation.

If you`ve noticed increased shedding or thinning hair, the most important step isn`t avoiding hats. It`s finding out why the loss is happening. Because there are many different causes of hair loss, there isn`t a one-size-fits-all treatment.

A dermatologist can evaluate your symptoms, identify the underlying cause, and recommend a personalized treatment plan based on your diagnosis.

While many people use the term "brown spots" to describe any discoloration, there are several different types of pigmentation, and each has its own cause.

☀️ Sun spots develop after years of UV exposure.
🌿 Melasma is often linked to hormones and can become more noticeable with sun exposure.
🟤 Other forms of pigmentation may develop after inflammation, acne, or other skin conditions.

Because these conditions can look similar, the best treatment depends on what`s actually causing the discoloration. That`s why an accurate diagnosis is the first step toward achieving a more even complexion.

If you`re bothered by dark spots or uneven skin tone, our team can help identify the cause and recommend treatment options that are right for your skin. Call our office or visit the link in our bio to schedule an appointment.

If you`re noticing thinning hair, you`ve probably heard about PRP. But what exactly is it?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) uses a concentrated portion of your own blood, rich in growth factors, to support the body`s natural healing processes. When used as an adjunctive treatment for certain types of hair loss, PRP may help improve hair density and thickness for appropriate candidates.

The key word is adjunctive. In this case, it means PRP is designed to complement other treatments, not replace them.

PRP isn`t a one-size-fits-all solution, and it isn`t the right treatment for every type of hair loss. That`s why an evaluation with a dermatologist is so important. Identifying the underlying cause of your hair loss is the first step toward building a treatment plan that`s tailored to your needs.

If you`ve been wondering whether PRP may be right for you, we`re happy to answer your questions and discuss your options during a consultation. Call our office or visit the link in our bio to get started.

If you`re noticing changes in your hair, it may be time to schedule an evaluation with a dermatologist. Here are five signs to watch for:

• Excessive shedding that`s more than your normal routine.
• A widening part or overall decrease in hair density.
• Patchy hair loss or bald spots that appear suddenly.
• A receding hairline that`s becoming more noticeable.
• Thinning that continues instead of improving over time.

Hair loss can have many causes, including genetics, hormonal changes, stress, medical conditions, and nutritional deficiencies. The first step toward treatment is identifying what`s causing it.

If you`ve been wondering whether your hair loss is "normal," we`re here to help you find answers. Schedule a consultation with our team by calling our office or visiting the link in our bio.
