Topical and Oral Medications
Antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, and hormonal therapies are commonly prescribed to reduce infection, control inflammation, and prevent flare-ups. These treatments are customized to target the underlying causes of HS and provide long-term relief.
Biologic Therapies
Biologic medications such as adalimumab (Humira) are designed to target specific immune pathways involved in HS. These injectables are highly effective for moderate to severe cases and work to reduce inflammation and prevent new lesions.
Laser and Light-Based Therapies
Advanced laser treatments like Aerolase Neo and Vbeam are used to reduce inflammation, destroy bacteria, and improve scarring. These non-invasive options offer significant relief with minimal downtime and are ideal for patients seeking an alternative to medication.
Incision and Drainage
For acute flare-ups or abscesses, incision and drainage provide immediate relief. This procedure is performed in-office to alleviate pain and reduce the risk of further infection.
Surgical Excision
In severe cases where tunnels or extensive scarring develop, surgical removal of affected tissue may be necessary. This procedure helps prevent recurrence and promotes healing, improving both function and appearance.
Lifestyle and Skincare Guidance
Maintaining proper hygiene, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and using gentle, dermatologist-recommended products can help manage HS symptoms and prevent irritation. Our experts will provide tailored advice to support your skin health.
