What is it?

Many people are familiar with the use of topical medications. Often, they serve as our initial approach to addressing various skin conditions such as acne, rosacea, psoriasis and eczema. These medications are applied directly to the affected skin area. Some cutting-edge topical treatments, like JAK inhibitors, have demonstrated rapid improvement in managing conditions like alopecia, vitiligo and eczema.

Biologics are transforming the way diseases are treated. These include molecules derived from living organisms and can mitigate or even eliminate symptoms of psoriasis and eczema. Unlike synthetic drugs that might affect your whole immune system, biologics are highly targeted towards the specific part of your immune system causing the symptoms. For some patients at our Beavercreek Dermatology, this could mean transformative results.

Biologics operate systemically, typically administered through injection or infusion, to tackle more severe cases of chronic diseases. Consult one of our board-certified dermatologists in Beavercreek, Ohio to determine if biologics or topical treatments are the ideal option for you.
