Skin Care

At Derma Health, we believe in a full circle approach to skin health, which includes using appropriate skin care. We recommend the SkinScript line of products, which are fruit based, natural products, created to treat, maintain and promote healthy, glowing skin. Your patient advocate, provider or aesthetican will help you determine the best products for your skin needs.

Professional skin care products penetrate and perform better than over the counter products. They are specially formulated in higher concentrations of active ingredients and composed of smaller molecules for actual penetration into skin’s layers rather than simply sitting on the top of the skin.

Skin Script products are available for purchase in our clinics and used in the the majority of all of our services. All Skin Script products are fruit based, eliminating the need for harsh chemicals that can harm the skin over time. These solutions work well with the body's natural processes for a natural and effective result.

We also recommend the full line of SkinMedica products. These products come from Allergan®, the makers of BOTOX® and Juvederm fillers. Many of these products can be purchased in our clinics or purchased below with free 2-day shipping on all orders.
