Topicals are frequently our initial approach for various skin conditions such as acne, rosacea, psoriasis and eczema. Topical treatments are directly applied to the skin where symptoms are present. Some innovative topical treatments, like JAK inhibitors, have shown significantly positive results for conditions such as alopecia, vitiligo and eczema.
Biologics are transforming the way we handle diseases that cause the immune system to attack the body abnormally. Biologics consist of molecules derived from living organisms and can diminish or even eliminate symptoms of psoriasis and eczema. Unlike synthetic drugs that can impact your entire immune system, biologics are highly specific to the particular part of your immune system that is causing symptoms. For some patients at our dermatology clinic, this could translate into transformative results.
Working on a systemic level, biologics are typically administered via injection or infusion to fight more severe cases of chronic diseases. Visit one of our board-certified dermatologists in Wooster, Ohio to determine if biologics or topical treatments are the right choice for you.
