Fast and Effective Treatment for Impetigo at Seojeong Dermatology

Dealing with red sores or crusty blisters on the skin? At Seojeong Dermatology in Gangnam, Seoul, we offer safe and prompt treatment for impetigo, a common bacterial skin infection. Our dermatologists provide personalized care to reduce discomfort, prevent spreading, and help the skin heal quickly — especially for children and adults prone to skin sensitivity.

What is Impetigo?

Impetigo is a highly contagious bacterial skin infection caused by Staphylococcus or Streptococcus bacteria. It often starts as red spots or blisters that break open and form a honey-colored crust, typically around the mouth, nose, hands, or legs. While most common in children, impetigo can affect anyone through skin contact, minor cuts, or existing conditions like eczema. Early treatment prevents complications and stops it from spreading to others.

• Quick diagnosis and relief from discomfort
• Topical or oral antibiotic treatments based on severity

Who Should Seek Treatment for Impetigo?

You may need medical treatment if you or your child has:
• Red sores or blisters that ooze and crust over
• Skin lesions that are spreading or painful
