Cleansers
Our cleansers address specific skin types with targeted formulations. Sensitive Foamy Cleanser soothes redness-prone skin using Evodiox, while Daily Clarifying Cleanser combines salicylic and glycolic acids for acne-prone skin. Creamy Cleanser moisturizes dry skin with lactic acid and petrolatum, maintaining skin barrier integrity through pH-balanced formulas.
Barrier Enhancement
Advanced barrier repair products contain sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer with 50x water-binding capacity. Our ceramide-rich formulations include five natural ceramides and two pre-cursors to restore skin's protective barrier. HA Hydrating Complex and Intensive Face Cream address dry, crepey skin through multi-layered moisturization strategies that improve skin texture and resilience.
Eye Area Products
Rejuvix Eye Complex combines vitamin C with acetyl hexapeptide-8 and hydroxyacids to address fine lines and dark circles. This antioxidant-rich formula with green tea and vitamins C & E improves skin elasticity and brightness. The lightweight texture absorbs quickly, making it suitable for all skin types around the delicate eye area.
Skin Renewal
Rejuvix C-Serum and C-Cream deliver stabilized vitamin C with hydroxyacids for collagen stimulation. Retinol 20/50 formulas improve fine lines and wrinkles over 4-12 weeks. RejuviMAX exfoliating pads use glycolic acid for deep exfoliation, while Silky Renewal Serum employs hydroxypinacolone retinoate for gentler anti-aging action with reduced irritation.
Sunscreen
Tinted Daily SunShade SPF 40 combines zinc oxide and titanium dioxide for broad-spectrum protection. The melanin-infused formula provides sheer coverage under makeup while offering antioxidant benefits. This lightweight, non-comedogenic sunscreen contains hyaluronic acid for hydration and maintains a matte finish suitable for daily wear.

Dr. Cohen has treated me with Botox, fillers and lasers for the past 10 years. He is an attentive listener and attempts to achieve the outcome the patient is seeking. As a clinical researcher at the forefront of cosmetic dermatology, Dr. Cohen is familiar with the newest treatment modalities. He is an expert at achieving a natural look and I wouldn't consider using anyone else. I highly recommend him!

I have used About Skin for Mohs surgery (Dr Cohen) and all my other medical derm needs (Dr Ho). On each and every occasion I have found them to be very professional, totally competent and easy to work with. The admin staff have been great and special mention to Tammy who with her professionalism and sense of humor actually made an unpleasant PDT treatment OK. While I have never done the cosmetic end, About Skin is top notch in all other regards.

I have been a patient for 10 years and want to express my appreciation to Dr. Joel Cohen and the staff @ About Skin Dermatology. They always take time to listen to all questions and provide answers. Having a history of melanoma in my family I feel fortunate to have found an excellent and thorough doctor like Joel Cohen.

I really liked the provider (Dr. Rothstein) but could have done without the soft sell to buy their sunscreen. Really? These clinics and providers make enough money as it is without having to peddle sunscreen that one can buy only at their location. There's not much difference among different sunscreens, no matter what anyone might say. Certainly, nothing that would warrant the additional cost of an AboutSkin version.
It's demeaning, actually, that an MD would engage in this ridiculousness. Also, such a talented, well-compensated group of dermatologists should not be promoting "yearly skin checks" for all their patients. This is yet another non-evidence-based way of increasing revenue. This is purely profit-motivated and, unless based on genuine risk-stratification, has negligible clinical value. Shouldn't dermatology preserve at least a modicum of ethics in this regard?
