About Us

The Hives Treatment Center is a dermatology practice founded by Dr. Tiffany Young and dedicated exclusively to diagnosing and treating hives. Our team of board-certified dermatologists specializes in every form of this condition, from acute breakouts to chronic urticaria, stress hives and facial hives, and we’ve helped tens of thousands of patients understand what causes hives, what hives look like, and how to get rid of hives for good.

Since 1990, we’ve built our practice around one focus: hives, and hives alone. That specialization means our team has seen nearly every presentation of hives rash imaginable and knows how to tell the difference between a routine breakout and something that needs closer attention. Whether you’re dealing with a single stubborn outbreak or hives symptoms that keep returning, we can help you find answers – including whether your hives are contagious and what home remedies actually work.

If you’re looking to learn more about what hives are, browse pictures of hives to compare against your own outbreak, or explore treatment options, you’re in the right place.
