What Causes Acne?
When pores become clogged, this often results in acne. Pores typically become clogged because of too much oil on the skin due to the overproduction of oil. When pores produce too much sebum oil, the oil traps in the dead skin cells it naturally tries to remove, creating a clogged pore and ultimately a blemish.
While clogged pores are the ultimate cause of acne, this skin condition can be negatively influenced or impacted by other factors, such as:
- Age
- Diet
- Hormones or hormonal changes
- Oily or greasy substances on the skin
- Pressure or friction on the skin
- Some medications
- Stress
Understanding what could be affecting your skin is important for figuring out which acne treatments will prove to be the most effective.

He will ensure that moles or skin lesions are benign by having them checked by a biopsy, when necessary.
MORPHEUS8
As we age, we lose collagen in our skin resulting in volume loss and wrinkles. Collagen acts as a scaffold, providing strength and structure to the skin on our face and body. With age, collagen production slows and the cell structures weaken. The skin gets thinner and is easier to damage as our body produces less and lower quality collagen.
BOTOX® COSMETIC
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, non-surgical, treatment that can smooth moderate frown lines between the eyebrows, forehead lines and crows feet. Dr. Greenberg is a member of the BOTOX® Cosmetic Physicians Network and has been specially trained in administering BOTOX® Cosmetic injections (treatments).
