Functional
Dermatology
Skin health meets full-body wellness
Your skin's glow starts from within. When concerns become chronic and unresponsive to traditional treatments, functional dermatology bridges the gap between internal and external skin health.
What is functional dermatology?
Functional dermatology is an advanced approach that connects traditional dermatology with functional medicine principles. This approach looks beyond the skin to internal factors such as hormone levels, gut health, inflammation, and stress.
Functional dermatology can treat:
→ Acne and hormonal acne
→ Rosacea
→ Eczema and dermatitis
→ Psoraisis
→ Chronic inflammation and sensitivity
→ Unexplained rashes
→ Scalp conditions linked to internal imbalances
If you think you’re a candidate for functional dermatology, a comprehensive evaluation is recommended to see if internal imbalances may be the root cause.

What internally affects skin health?
Though skin health is affected by external factors like skincare routines and environmental factors, it is also impacted by many internal factors, including:
→ Hormonal balances
→ Gut health and microbiome disruption
→ Chronic inflammation
→ Nutrient deficiencies
→ Stress and cortisol levels
