WHAT IS FUNCTIONAL DERMATOLOGY?

We employ a functional medicine model that focuses on an individualized, client-centered, and science-driven approach. This empowers clients and practitioners to collaborate to uncover the root causes of any skin or scalp manifestation and foster optimal wellness. It involves a comprehensive understanding of each client's genetic, biochemical, and lifestyle factors, using this information to create personalized treatment plans that enhance client outcomes.

 

If you've maintained a clean diet, avoiding trigger foods, our non-toxic skincare products, and prioritized self-care, your skin is still problematic; we must delve deeper.

 

Our extensive experience with specialized testing and understanding of the interconnections between these factors allow us to identify the underlying causes of skin or scalp manifestations, including:

​

Acne
Rosacea

Eczema
Psoriasis

Melasma
Seborrheic Dermatitis
Dandruff / Hair Loss
Keratosis Pilaris
Tinea / Malassezia Versicolor

 

Our primary goal is to help each client recognize their unique skin goals and achieve optimal wellness. We achieve this through tailored education, inspiration, and empowerment, setting us apart and ensuring the best possible results our clients.
