Topical & Oral Medications

Effective dermatology treatments often begin with the right prescription medications — tailored to your skin, hair, or nail condition. Our clinic offers expert guidance on both topical (applied to the skin) and oral (taken by mouth) medicines to help you achieve the healthiest results possible.

Topical Medications

These are creams, gels, ointments, lotions, or serums applied directly to the affected area. They deliver active ingredients right where they’re needed, with minimal systemic side effects.
Common uses:

  • Acne, pimples & blackheads

  • Eczema, psoriasis & dermatitis

  • Pigmentation & melasma

  • Fungal & bacterial skin infections

  • Scalp conditions like dandruff

Examples: Retinoids, corticosteroids, antibiotics, antifungals, skin-lightening agents, moisturizers with active ingredients.


Oral Medications

These work from the inside out, targeting the root cause of skin, hair, or nail concerns. They are prescribed when topical treatment alone is not enough or when the condition is more widespread.
Common uses:

  • Severe acne & cystic acne

  • Widespread infections

  • Allergic skin reactions

  • Autoimmune skin disorders

  • Hair loss & nail disorders

Examples: Antibiotics, antifungals, antihistamines, isotretinoin, hormonal therapy, vitamin & mineral supplements.
