Ana Cepeda

Acne is one of the most frequent skin diseases, which mainly affects teenagers.

Acne is the result of the sum of several factors which include an increase in the oiliness of the skin, the obstruction of pores of the sebaceous glands, the presence of bacteria on the skin and frequent hormonal alterations in adolescence and in women of child-bearing age.

Acne is considered a multifactorial condition and its treatment should be oriented toward treating the different causes of this.

WARTS

Warts are considered benign lesions of the skin. They can occur on virtually any region of the body.

Warts appear as verrucous surface lesions located mainly on fingers, in the region near the nails, and on the soles of the feet.

Warts are caused by the human papilloma virus and are quite frequent in childhood and adolescence.

It is important to know that most warts will disappear spontaneously without leaving a scar. However, they can take years to disappear and cause great discomfort and complexes in people suffering from this condition.

Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease related to imbalances in the immune system that result in the production of plaques and scales on the skin. The treatment of psoriasis depends on the severity of the clinical condition. Treatment includes creams, ultraviolet light exposure, oral medication and even injectable medication.

Always be attentive to changes in moles- these can indicate an important message. Although moles are in most cases benign and harmless, it is important that they are always evaluated by a dermatologist, as they can indicate the onset of skin cancer.

Surgical treatment of benign non-cancerous tumors, such as actinic keratosis, seborrheic keratosis, cysts, lipoma, warts and nevi can be removed with excellent cosmetic results. This should always be done by a dermatologist.

SKIN CANCER

Ana Cepeda

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer worldwide. Each year, more than 2 million new cases are diagnosed in the United States, equivalent to more new cases of skin cancer than those combined of prostate, breast, lung and colon cancers.

Skin cancer is one of the malignant tumors with the highest rates of successful treatment when diagnosed and treated early. However, when ignored, its evolution can result in a high mortality rate.

The majority of malignant skin tumors originate in areas exposed to the sun such as the face, arms and legs. Other influential factors in the development of skin cancer include sun exposure and genetic predisposition.
