What Is Acne?

Acne is one of the most widespread skin conditions in the U.S., impacting nearly 60 million people each year. While many cases are considered mild and may be controlled with prescription drugs and a steady at-home cleansing regimen, many patients have it so badly that scarring may occur. Acne generally is a combination of whiteheads, pimples, blackheads, small cysts, and other itchy, red, and inflamed areas of the skin. Caused by a mix of clogged pores, dead skin cells, and bacteria, it is most frequently seen in teens but can affect adults as old as 40 years of age. Acne most commonly appears on the face, chest, and back. To return the skin to a healthier, glowing appearance, Dr. Austin Mitchell at Brentwood Skin Clinic can offer numerous treatment alternatives, which range from custom at-home cleaning systems to prescription drugs and laser treatments. For more information, contact our Nashville, TN office to schedule a consultation with Dr. Mitchell.

How Is Acne Treated?

Research suggests that store-bought medications do not treat acne effectively. Brentwood Skin Clinic offers numerous therapy alternatives to control and maintain acne and clear its symptoms. For milder cases of acne, prescription drugs like topical creams and at-home solutions that contain sulfur, retinoids, salicylic acid, and benzoyl peroxide may help. There are also oral antibiotics, such as doxycycline, minocycline, or tetracycline, which are effective treatment options. In addition to oral and topical prescriptions, laser therapies also have proven effective. Not only can laser treatment help deep clean and attack dead skin cells under the top skin layer, but it can also decrease redness and other pigmentation problems associated with acne. After a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Mitchell, he will develop a customized acne treatment program to help you reach your skin care goals.

Our son had pretty severe acne and all the stuff that goes along with being a teen. Dr Mitchell was awesome - took son through a sustained series of trial topicals and treatment techniques until we and he decided to go the Accutane route. Strong medicine but in 6 months he was almost completely clear and confident again. Dr Mitchell’s staff and nurses were the best - highly highly recommend him!!

Dr. Mitchell is the best/friendliest and coolest/young dermatologist that you will ever find. I personally have not seen any person like him. He is so kind, gentle, clean, intelligent and very understanding. He will do whatever he can to make you happy. Not only is he handsome :-) but he has the expertise at what he is doing and will listen to you and help you find a solution that you are searching for. He checks your skin and listens to your concerns carefully and respectfully. He has awesome bed side manners. He comes to you like a great friend instead of a doc. I can’t forget to mention his wonderful receptionist Kimberly and his great staff, they really seem to be happy there. I had some acne and moles on my face and the very first visit he prescribed meds and such, typically other dermatologists will make you wait and wait then come back several times until you get what you want. His office is like a spa honestly, it is very clean, calming, and quite! I am usually only waiting 10 minutes until I am called to the back which is a A+++. I would give him more starts and longer review if It allowed me. Highly highly highly recommend him. I will be sure to recommend him to all of my family and friends. Thank you doc Mitchell for everything you have done to my face! H.Sindy

I went to Dr. Mitchell to try to find relief for my adult acne. I had been battling with it for a while and I finally decided to try to get medical help after I had the worse break out of my life on my wedding weekend. I had gone to other dermatologists before with mixed results and I figured that with all the great reviews it was worth a shot. Not only was the whole experience so painless but it worked! I am writing this to you with a clear complexion for the first time in years. Dr. Mitchell got me on a plan that worked for me very quickly and after a month or so I really saw the results. He was so personable and also very patient. Even when I came into our first appointment, dumped a bag of face products on his table, and asked "are any of these worth using?". He walked through each one with me, told me what it was for, and showed me which ones he thought I should keep. It was so nice of him to spend the time to do that. He was also very price conscious with what he prescribed to me, unlike other dermatologists I've had in the past who would just send me off with a prescription and a shrug only for me to find out it was several hundred dollars with no way to quickly get another prescription from them with out an appointment. So yes I'd say go to Dr. Mitchell and trust in the process. I would have settled with just okay skin so I'm absolutely thrilled to be walking around with clear skin thanks to him.
