At Prevention First, we are dedicated to helping educate patients about
their health. To further that goal, Prevention First is providing articles
written by Dr. Johnson to educate patients about important health topics.
Our emphasis will remain on prevention and how Prevention First can help
with prevention and early treatment. Finally, we will use these letters
to keep our patients informed of our increasing services.

Acne is an inflammatory disease of the skin. It is most common and severe
in the teenage years, but can continue into adulthood. Acne leads to
skin redness, pimples and blackheads. Uncontrolled, acne can eventually
lead to scarring. Click
