Biologics mark a groundbreaking shift in treating conditions where the immune system attacks the body. Derived from living organisms, they effectively alleviate symptoms of psoriasis and eczema with targeted precision. Unlike synthetic drugs — which affect the immune system—biologics specifically target the problematic immune components. This precise approach can lead to remarkable improvements in the quality of life for patients at our dermatology clinic.
Biologics are given through injection or infusion to treat severe, long-lasting diseases.
Many of us are familiar with topical medications. They're often the first choice for treating skin conditions like acne, rosacea, psoriasis and eczema. These medications are applied directly to the affected skin area. Some newer ones, like JAK inhibitors, have shown fast results for alopecia, vitiligo and eczema.
Consult with our Skin Care Center’s board-certified dermatologists in Lake Forest, Glenview or Chicago, Illinois, to see if biologics or topicals are right for you.
