Acne and Acne-Related Concerns

Acne is one of the most common reasons to see a dermatologist. We treat teen and adult acne, including hormonal and cystic acne, as well as acne scarring, using customized plans that may include prescription therapy, in-office treatments, microneedling, acne peels, and advanced skincare.

Eczema, Rashes, and Inflammatory Skin Conditions

We help patients manage eczema (atopic dermatitis), contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa, lichen sclerosus, and rosacea. These chronic conditions can cause itching, redness, and irritation. Our dermatologists focus on long-term relief and skin barrier repair.

Skin Infections

From common viral infections to persistent fungal or bacterial problems, we treat:

  • Warts and molluscum contagiosum
  • Fungal infections (ringworm, athlete’s foot, nail fungus)
  • Bacterial infections (impetigo, folliculitis)
  • Cold sores and shingles

Prompt diagnosis helps prevent spreading and scarring.

Pigmentation Disorders

Uneven skin tone and changes in pigmentation are common concerns. We treat melasma, sun spots, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and vitiligo using medical therapy, laser, and topical options.

Hair and Scalp Conditions

Our dermatologists evaluate and treat hair loss (alopecia), scalp psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and dandruff. We also address excess hair growth (hirsutism) and offer evidence-based treatments to restore hair health and confidence.

Nail Disorders

We diagnose and treat nail fungus, ingrown toenails, and nail psoriasis. Healthy nails can reflect your overall skin and systemic health.

Sun Damage and Skin Cancer

Utah’s high altitude means more sun exposure and a higher skin cancer risk. We offer comprehensive skin cancer screenings and treatment for:

  • Actinic keratoses (precancerous lesions)
  • Basal cell carcinoma
  • Squamous cell carcinoma
  • Melanoma

Our board-certified dermatologists and Mohs surgeon provide early detection and precise, effective care.

A personalized long-term care plan, when needed
For chronic or recurring conditions, we create a plan that supports ongoing management and prevention to keep your skin, hair, and nails healthy over time.

Our goal is to ensure you feel informed, supported, and confident in your care from the moment you arrive.

Your Questions About Skin, Hair, and Nail Health Answered

If you have thickened, discolored, or painful nails, a dermatologist can identify fungal infections, psoriasis, or other causes and guide treatment to restore nail health.

Yes. We offer medical and light-based therapies to reduce inflammation, reduce redness, and manage chronic psoriasis and rosacea symptoms for lasting skin comfort.

Eczema (atopic dermatitis) and other rashes cause itching, dryness, and inflammation. Our dermatologists create targeted treatment plans with barrier-repair routines, prescription topicals, and lifestyle guidance to reduce flares and restore healthy skin.

Acne develops when oil glands and pores become clogged with dead skin and bacteria. At Wasatch Dermatology, we treat teen and adult acne, including hormonal and cystic acne, with personalized plans that include prescription therapy, Accutane, in-office treatments, microneedling, acne peels, and medical-grade skincare to help prevent scarring.

Hair loss can result from genetics, hormones, or autoimmune conditions. Our team evaluates causes of alopecia, dandruff, and scalp psoriasis and recommends effective medical or procedural treatments to promote healthy regrowth.

Pigmentation concerns such as melasma, sun spots, and post-inflammatory discoloration respond to topical therapy, chemical peels, and laser treatments available at Wasatch Dermatology. We also treat vitiligo and other pigment disorders with precision care.

We diagnose and treat bacterial, viral, and fungal skin infections, including warts, molluscum, impetigo, folliculitis, and nail fungus. Early care helps clear the infection and prevent scarring or spread.
