Acne, Anti-Aging & Dark Spots
Overview
Virtual care for common skin concerns, including acne breakouts, early signs of skin aging, and uneven tone or dark spots. Your provider reviews your skin history and discusses a personalized plan.
Common symptoms or concerns
- Acne breakouts, blackheads, or inflamed blemishes
- Fine lines, dullness, or early signs of skin aging
- Dark spots or uneven tone after healing blemishes or sun exposure
- Oiliness, dryness, or sensitivity affecting your routine
When virtual care may be appropriate
- Your skin concern is stable without rapidly spreading redness or severe pain
- You are not experiencing a spreading rash, fever, or painful infection
- You can describe your history and concerns clearly during a video visit

- Join a secure video visit with a licensed healthcare provider at your appointment time.
- Your provider reviews your health history and discusses your concerns.

What your provider may evaluate
- Your symptoms, how long you have had them, and what you have tried
- Your personal and family medical history
- Current medications, supplements, and allergies

Possible treatment options
Treatment options may include prescription or nonprescription therapies when clinically appropriate. Your provider will determine whether a treatment is safe and appropriate after reviewing your health history and completing a clinical evaluation. Prescriptions are never guaranteed.
Options may include topical or other skincare therapies depending on what is appropriate for your skin. Improvement often takes time, consistent use, and follow-up.
When laboratory testing or in-person care may be needed
Some concerns may require laboratory testing, imaging, an in-person examination, or referral to a specialist. Your provider will advise you if your situation is not appropriate for virtual care.
Severe nodular or cystic acne, widespread involvement, or signs of infection may require in-person dermatology evaluation.
