Professional-grade skin care products are a world apart from what you can buy in a department store or pharmacy. Why is that? Let’s take a deeper look.Reason #1: Clinical Research
The skin care products sold exclusively by dermatologists are backed by extensive research and are clinically-tested to deliver superior results. The professional lines of skin care products available at Clarkston Dermatology use high-quality, prescription-strength ingredients, and have more potent combinations of active ingredients than what you can get over-the-counter.
Reason #2: Stronger Active Ingredients
Most over-the-counter (OTC) products only actually contain small amounts of active ingredients and they typically only work on the top layer of the skin. Medical-grade products have a higher concentration of active ingredients (think: hyaluronic acid, growth factors, peptides, acids, retinols, antioxidants) and are developed to penetrate deeper levels of the skin as well as help with cell turnover.
Reason #3: Exclusive & Hand-picked by Experts
When you purchase clinical skin care products from a physician’s office, you are bringing home a product that is backed by extensive research and exclusive to medical offices only. Furthermore, when you purchase skin care online, or over-the-counter, you are relying on your own research to determine what regimen or product(s) would work best for your skin - - often finding the skin care products aren’t right for your skin, or even worse, do not work! At Clarkston Dermatology, we offer free product consultations where you will receive a custom regimen recommendation that is appropriate and curated for your individual skin.
What Skin Care Products Do We Offer?
Clarkston Dermatology is proud to offer several lines of award- winning and trusted skin care brands for our patients.
