Top Conditions We Treat
At The Medical Group of New Jersey, our dermatology team treats a broad range of skin, hair, and nail conditions. Explore some of the most common below. Each links to a detailed Clinical Patient Journey that explains symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment.
Acne is the most common skin condition, often beginning in adolescence when oil glands and pores become clogged. It can appear as blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, or cysts, and may worsen with hormones, stress, or certain skincare products. Our dermatologists offer personalized treatment, from topical or oral medications to advanced therapies like isotretinoin, to reduce breakouts and prevent scarring.
Psoriasis is an immune-mediated skin condition that causes red, scaly plaques that may itch, crack, or bleed. It commonly affects the scalp, elbows, and knees and may also impact the nails. We provide full-spectrum care, including topical treatments, phototherapy, and biologic medications, while monitoring for related conditions such as psoriatic arthritis.
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic, itchy rash that often begins in childhood and flares with allergens, irritants, or stress. Skin may appear dry, red, or thickened from scratching. Treatment includes moisturizers, topical steroids, and, for moderate to severe cases, advanced biologic therapies that target inflammation and restore the skin barrier.
Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S. and includes basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. Our dermatologists perform skin exams, biopsies, and advanced treatments, including surgical excision and Mohs micrographic surgery. For melanoma, we coordinate systemic therapy with oncology for comprehensive care.
Rosacea causes facial flushing, redness, and acne-like bumps, often triggered by heat, alcohol, or stress. While it can’t be cured, symptoms can be managed effectively through topical or oral medications, gentle skincare, and laser or light-based therapies to reduce redness and visible blood vessels.
This common rash occurs when the skin reacts to an allergen or irritant, such as nickel, fragrances, latex, or harsh soaps. Patch testing helps identify triggers, and treatment involves avoiding irritants, soothing creams, and topical corticosteroids to calm inflammation and itching.
Urticaria causes red, itchy welts that appear suddenly and may last for hours to days. It can be triggered by allergens, stress, medications, or physical stimuli such as cold or heat. Treatment focuses on identifying triggers and controlling symptoms with antihistamines or, for chronic cases, targeted biologic therapies. Immediate treatment is available for severe allergic reactions.
Vitiligo is an autoimmune condition that causes loss of skin pigment, leading to white patches that can appear anywhere on the body. Though not harmful, it can affect self-esteem. Treatment options include topical creams, light therapy, and cosmetic camouflage, along with screening for associated autoimmune conditions such as thyroid disease.
Our dermatologists treat a wide range of scalp and nail concerns, including alopecia areata, androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium, and nail fungus (onychomycosis). Care may include topical or oral medications, corticosteroid injections, antifungals, or regenerative treatments such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for hair loss.
Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and can appear on the hands, feet, face, or genital area. Treatment options include cryotherapy (freezing), topical salicylic acid, laser removal, or immune-based therapy to eliminate the virus and prevent recurrence.
Our Multidisciplinary Approach
Because skin health often connects to underlying systemic conditions, our dermatologists collaborate closely with specialists in rheumatology (for psoriatic arthritis), oncology (for melanoma), endocrinology (for thyroid disorders linked to vitiligo), and allergy/immunology (for chronic hives or contact dermatitis). This integrated care model ensures we treat the whole patient, not just the skin.
