Austin’s reputation as a vital, robust area can be laid in part to citizens who put their best faces forward, and say job “well done.” At Four Points Dermatology we provide the Westlake area of Austin, Texas with a quality dermatology experience. Our skilled staff, led by Dr. Roopal Bhatt, M.D., specializes in dermatological procedures that correct skin problems not easily dealt with using over-the-counter methods. We want folks living in Westlake, and the rest of Austin, to know that no matter what age or skin type, count on us to treat each individual with care and practiced precision.
One of the most common skin conditions is acne. There are numerous acne treatments to be found in any pharmacy, but we strongly recommend that consulting with a dermatologist is the best way to devise a treatment plan intent on defeating the problem. That may include sophisticated chemical peels capable of erasing the acne blight. People who have suffered the embarrassment of acne for years are delighted to engage the world with their improved self-image. At Four Points Dermatology, we are proud to make that happen for the people of Austin.
Dermatologists encounter a number of skin problems that may seem less than serious. Included in this category of supposedly routine issues are rashes, bug bites and warts. Don’t be deluded into thinking nothing can come of a blemish that suddenly appears. Most rashes can be treated with home-style remedies. But if a rash is the result of an allergic reaction to something, it can cause painful hives to develop. Let your Westlake dermatologist know what’s happening. It’s his or her job to apply the correct treatment.
Bug bites, including those caused by fleas carried by family dogs, can become very uncomfortable. Your Four Points dermatologist might use chemical drips or prescription-strength aloes to ease the itching and general discomfort that developed at the bite site. Also, let your dermatologist remove any warts that may appear anywhere on your body. Most warts are easily removed using freezing techniques. The procedure is painless and only takes about an hour.
The real danger any dermatologist might deal with is suspicious moles. A mole that changed color or shape needs careful attention. It is crucial that malignant moles be diagnosed as soon as possible. Even removing a benign mole can bring mental relief for patients.
