Biologics are highly-targeted medicines that contain molecules from living organisms. Topicals include creams, ointments, or gels applied to the skin.
What is it?
Most of us are well acquainted with the use of topical medicines. They are frequently our primary strategy for dealing with various skin issues such as acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and eczema. Topical drugs are directly applied to the skin where symptoms are present. Some of the more recent topical drugs, like JAK inhibitors, have shown a quick improvement in conditions like alopecia, vitiligo, and eczema.
Biologics are revolutionizing the way we treat diseases that trigger the immune system to abnormally attack parts. Biologics are composed of molecules from living organisms and can minimize or completely remove symptoms of conditions like psoriasis and eczema. Unlike synthetic drugs that can impact your entire immune system, biologics are highly targeted at the specific part of your immune system causing symptoms. For some patients at our dermatology clinic, thes treatements could mean transformative outcomes, even if past treatment options have beenineffective.
Consult with one of our board-certified dermatologists in Springfield, Grove City, and Dublin, Ohio to determine if biologics or topicals are the right treatment for you.
