Oak Dermatology Reviews
Dr. Fang is the best dermatologist in Joliet she explains you things well and take care of you. She's not rushed she takes her time.
Dr. Fang and is an absolutely amazing dermatologist! She’s extremely personable and is thorough in her discussions about procedures and after care. I highly recommend her.
After trying to get rid of my acne with over the counter products I decided to try going to a dermatologist. They got me on a routine and my acne is significantly better since I have stuck to it daily.
Staff is friendly and helpful. Stephanie Tracey is personable and takes her time during visits.
Had an excellent first experience with Oak Derm today. I was seen by NP Emily Schnurstein for facial flushing and hair loss. She listened carefully to all of my concerns and addressed each one of them throughly. The front desk staff was also very pleasant.

About UsCysts FAQs
Will a cyst go away on its own?
Certain kinds of cysts will not disappear alone. At Oak Dermatology, our dermatologists advise that you receive therapy for a cyst in order to assess the proper method to address the problem. If you are unsure of the type of cyst, it is recommended to seek medical attention when possible.
Can I remove my cyst myself?
It's not a recommended to attempt getting rid of a cyst on your own because this might increase the possibility of infection, including the reoccurrence of the cyst. To carefully remove most cysts, you need to receive treatment from a medical doctor.
When should I get treatment for a cyst?
It is advisable to seek medical treatment for a cyst when it starts to interfere with your daily activities or causes significant discomfort. There are several specific circumstances when the intervention of a healthcare provider becomes necessary:
- The cyst is in an area that is unbearable
- It is enlarged or hurts
- It leads to symptoms, like itching or bleeding
- The appearance of the cyst is distressing
Can a cyst come back after removal?
When a cyst is surgically removed, there is little possibility of the cyst recurring in the same spot, but it can come back nevertheless. The likelihood of a cyst reoccurring depends on several factors, including the type of cyst, the completeness of the initial removal, and individual healing responses. Follow-up care is crucial. Regular monitoring and adherence to post-treatment instructions can help minimize the risk of a cyst returning. If a cyst does reappear, additional treatments, possibly more extensive than the initial one, may be necessary.
