Dermatology is an area of medicine that focuses on the health and appearance of the skin, hair, and nails. Dr. Roger Koreen is recognized for his standard of excellence in the diagnosis and treatment of various dermatologic conditions ranging from skin cancer to the signs of aging. In addition to treatments in our Huntington, NY office, you can benefit from affordable face and skin care products tailored to your needs. We are pleased to offer some of the best lines available today.
Because we are largely driven by stimuli, consumer marketing of skin care products targets the eye. When you realize that attractive packaging or a celebrity endorsement does not make a product right for your goals, you begin to make wiser investments into your skin.
You may assume that professional-grade products found at your dermatologist’s office are too expensive. However, when your goal is results, the advantages of high-quality ingredients become evident.
Some of the ingredients that provide the greatest benefits to the skin include:
- Green tea. The polyphenol compounds provide powerful antioxidant effects that improve tone and texture.
- Alpha-hydroxy acids. Mild acidity from natural chemicals gently exfoliate dead cells from the skin’s surface. This can improve pigmentation while smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.
- Plant-based extracts. They are gentle to the skin as they provide nutrients and antioxidant power to fight the signs of aging.
- Benzoyl peroxide. This is a recognized ingredient in the treatment of acne. Products with this ingredient can help clear existing acne and also help prevent future breakouts.
Whether you have acne-prone skin, sun damage, a chronic condition, or just want to slow the signs of aging, your daily skin care routine is important. The best way to identify which products are right for you is to consult with your dermatologist.
With an evaluation of your skin and discussion of your goals and concerns, Dr. Koreen can formulate the plan best suited to your needs. Schedule your visit at the Dermatology and Cosmetic Laser Center today.
