Moles may be present at or may develop during childhood or young adulthood. Moles tend to increase in number during the first two decades of life, and sun exposure can stimulate the body to make more moles. Melanoma is more common in adults but occasionally develops in teenagers.
Children’s Dermatology is led by Board-Certified Dermatologist Dr. Heidi Goodarzi serving patients throughout Orange County, CA.
Make an appointment with Dr. Heidi today to discuss your wart removal in Orange County, CA, and restore your skin.
Cryotherapy is cold spray (liquid nitrogen) used to freeze the wart. It may cause a blister. Multiple treatments are needed about one month apart.
Extract of the common yeast (Candida) that cannot cause an infection but will stimulate the immune system to recognize the wart virus and attack it. Multiple injections may be needed.
Compounded wart formulations containing blistering agents to treat warts. These products can be irritating and may cause a blister. Multiple treatments are needed about one month apart.
After numbing the area the wart will be surgically removed.
Dr. Heidi will also recommend at-home treatments that you can do in between office visits to help treatments be more effective.
Happy Global Hand Washing Day 🧼 Oct 15th
But wash too many times and you get Irritant Contact Dermatitis.
⠀
The balance of good hand washing habits versus becoming over-zealous and causing harm is a subject worth discussing.
Washing hands too many times or using harsh soaps or hot water can cause cracks in the skin, which can be entry point of bacteria and viruses. It can also lead to nail damage or nail disease.
Irritant Contact Dermatitis is a kind of rash that anyone exposed to harsh conditions can get ( it is different than Allergic Contact Dermatitis that only people with allergies get).
Teach kids good hand washing habits but also keep a watchful eye on their little hands. Always, use 𝗹𝘂𝗸𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗺 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 and 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝗮𝗽. Get in habit of 𝗺𝗼𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 with a light moisturizer after washing hands.
Favorite brands are @officialvanicream @cetaphil @cerave and @dove (Dove bar soap not the liquid one).
Have you ever experienced hand irritation from too much washing ?

Dry skin Care.
✅ Use lukewarm water. Avoid hot showers.
✅ Use a gentle soap such as dove.us @officialvanicream @cetaphilus or @cerave
✅ Damp dry and moisturize immediately.
✅ Use moisturizers such as @cerave @larocheposayusa @cetaphilus or @vanicreamskincare .
✅ For extremely dry patches use ointment @vaselinebrand @vanicreamskincare or @aquaphorus
✅ See a dermatologist if you can’t manage dry skin on your own or if you have red, flaky, itchy skin. In that case you don’t just have dry skin, you have a skin disease.

“Birthmark” doesn’t mean much… there are hundreds of different lesions that you can be born with and they can range from
1- completely benign and harmless to
2- somewhat concerning and needing monitoring, to
3- necessitating removal, to
4- having potential to be associated with syndromes and neurological problems and needing genetic testing.
Proper diagnosis is key 🔑
