Effective Acne Treatments in Yakima, WA
Do you have persistent acne breakouts that often leave scarring? Integrative Dermatology can help you wave this stubborn skin condition goodbye and welcome clear, impeccable skin.
Address the Underlying Cause of Acne
The first step to fighting acne includes pinpointing the underlying cause. The primary culprits include:
- Excess sebum production – Stress, inadequate skin care products, or a diet with too much sugar, salt, dairy, saturated fats, and high-GI (Glycemic Index) foods can make your skin produce more oil, clogging your pores and causing acne.
- Hormonal imbalance – Specific medications (including birth control pills) and hormonal changes due to a menstrual cycle, pregnancy, puberty, or menopause can increase sebum production and cause acne.
- Bacteria – Bacterial organisms live on your skin, but their excessive buildup in your pores can cause inflammation and acne.
- Genetics – A family history of acne might mean your genes are to blame for your acne breakouts. For instance, your cell turnover rate may be high, but your dead skin cells may not follow the same pace when shedding, clogging your pores.
Whether you experience frequent acne flare-ups due to excess oil in your skin or have hormonal, bacterial, or genetic acne, Integrative Dermatology can identify and address the underlying cause, helping you get clear, smooth skin. Contact us to schedule a consultation at our clinic in central Washington to see what’s happening beneath the surface.

Custom treatment
We work with specialty compounding pharmacies to create customized medication. We’ll tailor yours to your needs to address your acne-causing issue.
Skincare regimen
We’ll develop a personalized skincare routine to help you manage acne triggers and eliminate flare-ups
Regular monitoring and optimization
We’ll schedule a follow-up 2–3 months after your initial visit to see how your skin responds and adjust the treatment (if necessary). If you receive Accutane treatment, we’ll meet with you monthly for six months to check the progress.
