Acne and Wart Treatments in Kahului, HI

At Frank R. Baum, MD, Inc. Pediatrics in Kahului, HI, our team understands that skin concerns can affect both comfort and confidence. Acne and warts are two of the most common dermatologic conditions seen in children and teens, and both can cause irritation, discomfort, and self-consciousness if left untreated. With gentle, effective pediatric care, Dr. Frank R. Baum provides treatments that help restore healthy, clear skin.

Acne Treatments

Acne often begins during puberty, though younger children can experience it as well. Pores become filled with excess oil, bacteria, or dead skin cells, leading to whiteheads, blackheads, or inflamed blemishes. Hormonal fluctuations, stress, or even certain skincare products can worsen breakouts.

At Frank R. Baum, MD, Inc., treatment starts by identifying what type of acne your child has and what’s causing it. Instead of relying on trial and error, Dr. Baum may recommend topical creams, gentle cleansers, or oral medication to reduce redness and control oil production. For persistent acne, stronger prescriptions can help prevent scarring and restore clearer skin. He also guides parents through daily routines, emphasizing mild skincare and balanced habits that support healthy improvement over time.

Wart Treatments

Warts appear as small raised bumps caused by skin viruses (like the HPV virus), most common in school-aged children. They can form on the fingers, toes, feet, or other skin areas, and contact with contaminated surfaces can spread them easily. While warts are generally harmless, they may become tender or bothersome when clustered or positioned in sensitive areas.

Our team offers gentle, kid-friendly wart treatments aimed at removing them effectively while preventing recurrence. Depending on their size and type, treatment options may include topical solutions or simple in-office procedures that cause minimal discomfort. Each plan is designed to keep your child comfortable and ensure fast healing with lasting results.
