Is your scalp dry, flaky, itchy, or constantly shedding?

Many people assume scalp concerns are a hair problem, but more often than not, they're actually a skin problem. Conditions like seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, and other skin disorders can affect the scalp and may require more than a different shampoo to resolve.

If you've been dealing with persistent flakes, irritation, redness, or itching, it may be time to see a dermatologist. A healthy scalp is the foundation of healthy hair, and identifying the underlying cause is the first step toward relief.

Don't brush it off as "just dandruff." Let Westminster Dermatology help get your scalp back to feeling comfortable and healthy.

Heading off to college should mean worrying about classes, friends, and making memories... not stressing over breakouts.

We’re excited to offer TheraClearX, an in-office treatment designed to help improve mild to moderate acne by targeting oil production, inflammation, and clogged pores at the source.

The best part? TheraClearX is covered by most major insurance plans, making professional acne treatment more accessible than ever.

Starting a new semester with confidence starts with feeling good in your own skin. If acne has been getting in the way, this may be a great option to explore.

Have you done your monthly skin check lately? 🔍

Taking a few minutes each month to look over your skin can help you notice changes early. If you have a mole or spot that looks different or has changed over time, it may be time to schedule an appointment with Westminster Dermatology.

Our providers often recommend remembering the ABCDEs of skin checks:

A – Asymmetry
One half of the spot or mole doesn't match the other.

B – Border
The edges appear uneven, irregular, or jagged.

C – Color
There are multiple colors or uneven coloring throughout the spot.

D – Diameter
The spot is growing larger in size.

E – Evolution
You notice changes over time in size, shape, color, or appearance.

Regular self-checks are important, but if something doesn't seem right, trust your instincts and get it evaluated. Your skin health matters.

Schedule your skin check with Westminster Dermatology today.

Your workout is great for your body… but don’t forget your skin.

Before you work out:
• Start with a clean face to remove makeup, oil, and dirt
• Skip heavy products that can clog pores when you sweat
• Tie hair back to keep oils and products off your skin

After you work out:
• Cleanse your skin as soon as possible to remove sweat and bacteria
• Avoid sitting in sweaty clothes for too long
• Follow with a light moisturizer to keep your skin balanced

A few simple steps can help prevent breakouts and keep your skin looking its best.
