Beyond the Shelf
The Power of Compounding for Dermatology
Unlike traditional pharmacies that dispense commercially available medications, we offer a unique advantage – the ability to create personalized “compounds” tailored to your specific needs. These customized solutions can address several limitations that often come with commercially produced medications
01
Dosage Challenges
Do you have difficulty using commercially available creams or ointments? We can create compounds in a variety of formulations, including lotions, gels, or even sprays, depending on your preference and the targeted area of treatment.
02
Strength Variations
Does your skin require a higher or lower concentration of a specific medication than what’s commercially available? We can customize the strength of the active ingredient in your compounded medication to ensure optimal efficacy.
03
Combination Therapy
Sometimes, a combination of different medications is necessary for effective treatment. We can combine multiple medications into a single, convenient compound formulation, reducing the need for multiple applications.
04
Discontinued Medications
Has your dermatologist prescribed a medication that is no longer commercially available? We can explore the possibility of creating a compounded alternative based on the original formula.
05
Allergy Concerns
Do you have an allergy to a specific inactive ingredient in a commercially available medication? We can create a hypoallergenic compound formulation that eliminates the problematic ingredient while maintaining the therapeutic effect.
Addressing Common Skin Conditions
Our compounding expertise extends to a variety of common skin conditions, allowing us to work alongside your dermatologist to develop a personalized treatment plan. Here are some examples
Melasma: This condition causes patches of darkened skin on the face, often triggered by sun exposure or hormonal changes. We can create compounded creams containing ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, and tretinoin to lighten hyperpigmentation and even out skin tone.
Actinic Keratoses (AKs): These precancerous skin lesions often appear on sun-exposed areas. We can formulate topical medications like fluorouracil or imiquimod to effectively treat AKs and prevent their progression.
Warts: These benign skin growths can be unsightly and bothersome. We offer compounded topical medications like salicylic acid or podophyllin to remove warts safely and effectively.
Rosacea: This chronic inflammatory skin condition can cause redness, bumps, and visible blood vessels on the face. Compounded creams containing metronidazole, azelaic acid, or ivermectin can be customized to manage rosacea symptoms and promote calmer skin.
Psoriasis: This autoimmune condition can cause itchy, red, scaly patches on the skin. Compounded topical medications containing corticosteroids, coal tar, or calcipotriol can offer relief from psoriasis symptoms.
Eczema: This dry, itchy skin condition is particularly common in children but can affect people of all ages. We offer compounded ointments and creams containing ingredients like hydrocortisone, emollients, and oatmeal to soothe irritation and restore a healthy skin barrier.

Powerful Topical Anesthetics for Minimally Invasive Procedures
Many dermatological procedures require minimal anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. We offer a range of compounded topical anesthetics in various formulations, such as lidocaine and prilocaine, to numb the treatment area effectively. This allows your dermatologist to perform procedures like biopsies, wart removal, and chemical peels with minimal discomfort.
