Should I peel my sunburn?
No. Do not peel your sunburn; it will slough off naturally. If you do, you may increase the risk of infection. To decrease the peeling skin, consider using Aloe Vera or a nice moisturizing cream on the affected areas. Kaminska Dermatology Care Team READ MORE

Is it bad to squeeze out sebum?
Sebum is a natural oily substance produced by our sebaceous or oil glands. Squeezing sebum out can make our pores wider. I recommend against doing this. There are ways to decrease sebum production including certain medications, topical creams or washes, and chemical peels. Consult with a board certified dermatologist to go over a customized treatment plan for you. Kaminska Dermatology Care Team READ MORE
How do dermatologists remove blackheads?
Blackheads can be treated with a topical acne cream such as benzoyl peroxide or retinoids. They can also be extracted with a tool called a comedo extractor. Certain chemical peels can also help remove blackheads. The best way to treat blackheads depends on the severity of the condition. Please consult with a board certified dermatologist for the best way to treat your condition. Kaminska Dermatology Care Team READ MORE
What causes an itchy rash on hands?
Itchy hands can have many causes. The most common cause of itchy hands in my clinic is eczema. Eczema is a rash that the body produces that can be itchy and scaly, or bumpy and scaly. It causes a lot of discomfort. I recommend gentle skin care, like using warm water and unscented, hypoallergenic bar soap to wash the hands. Also, hypoallergenic, scent-free hand creams. If this does not help, It is best to be evaluated by a board certified dermatologist for a diagnosis. Kaminska Dermatology Care Team READ MORE

How do you treat hyperpigmentation from acne?
Hyperpigmentation is very frustrating! One of the most effective treatments starts with wearing sunscreen.

I often recommend a professional series facial routine for my patients that helps hyperpigmentation and skin rejuvenation. READ MORE
