There are several ways to treat AK, and your dermatologist will determine which is best for you based on several factors. Your dermatologist will review your skin health, how widespread the AKs are, their location, previous skin cancer history, and any other medical conditions you may have. Common actinic keratosis treatments include:
Topical Creams
Cryosurgery (Freezing the Area)
Photodynamic Therapy
Scraping
The best treatment will ultimately be decided between the patient and board-certified dermatologist.
