Healthy Skin Starts With Gentle Care

Your daily cleansing routine plays an important role in maintaining healthy, balanced skin. Wash your face gently when you wake up, before bedtime, and after sweating to help remove dirt, oil, and buildup.

Choose a mild cleanser that works with your skin type, and avoid harsh scrubbing that can irritate your skin or damage its natural barrier. After cleansing, rinse thoroughly and gently pat your face dry with a clean towel.

At Buckhead Dermatology, Dr. Straughn can help guide you toward skincare choices that support your skin’s unique needs.

Acne is more than just a breakout — it can affect confidence, comfort, and the way you feel in your skin. From hormonal changes and stress to genetics and irritation, many factors can contribute to acne at any age and on every skin tone.

At Buckhead Dermatology, Dr. Sherrie-Ann Straughn provides personalized acne treatments designed to address active breakouts and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, with special expertise in skin of color.

It’s hard to believe sunscreen is still relatively new—only developed in the 1930s, with SPF ratings introduced in 1962. For most of U.S. history, protection meant hats and shade alone.

With the sun strong in July, long hours outdoors can quickly turn into sunburn risk. A broad-spectrum SPF 30+ applied and reapplied throughout the day remains one of the simplest ways to protect your skin and prevent long-term damage.
