  • Diagnosis

    A diagnosis is made by examining the affected areas and considering any potential exposure to the bacteria that cause impetigo.

  • Treatment Plan

    Impetigo is typically treated with topical or oral antibiotics, depending on the severity of the infection. Your doctor will provide a personalized treatment plan based on the extent of the infection.

  • Down time

    Treatment usually takes about 7-10 days for the infection to clear. During this time, it is important to keep the affected area clean and follow the prescribed medication schedule.

  • Results

    Most patients notice significant improvement within 2-3 days of starting treatment. The sores begin to heal, and the crusting disappears. Full healing typically occurs within a week to 10 days.
