Most of us know the basics—wash your face, use a moisturizer, and wear sunscreen every day. If you’re more advanced, you may have dove into the different skin types and what routines work best for them.
However, it’s not as simple as fitting your concerns neatly into a box. Your diet, genetics, and so many other factors determine your skin’s unique anatomy. So, how do you find products that work for your exact situation?
Not all skincare products are equal. Nobody likes wasting time and money on products that don’t work—or worsen—your concerns. That’s why the experts at Galt Dermatology & Concierge Medicine are here to help you find the right skincare products in Fort Lauderdale.

Why Skin Care Is Important
Your skin is your body’s first defense, protecting you from all kinds of threats. However, those constant battles can damage your skin over time, leaving you with wrinkles, dullness, acne, and other confidence-knocking conditions.
You deserve to feel confident—not just comfortable—in your skin, and sadly, more than half of Americans admit to feeling uncomfortable. Wanting to be confident isn’t selfish or vain. Studies show that when you feel your best, you live your best, as your self-esteem influences your work performance, personal relationships, and, most importantly, your relationship with yourself.
Beyond affecting your mental health, your skin also affects your physical health. After all, it’s the largest organ in the human body. Don’t overlook the importance of taking care of it, just like how you take care of your brain by reading, and how you keep your body healthy by exercising. Taking good care of your skin now can help you avoid premature wrinkles, skin infections, and even skin cancers.
Looking Your Best
Investing in yourself is one of the best things you can do to maximize your every day—which enables you to be your best for those around you, too. Our selection of professional skincare products in Fort Lauderdale revives your complexion’s glow by rebuilding your skin from the inside out.
From smoothing wrinkles to targeting breakouts, we have a science-backed solution to improve all kinds of conditions and your confidence (and therefore your quality of life).
In-Office vs At-Home Treatments
Neither at-home nor in-office treatments are universally better than the other, but rather they should work together. Think of in-office treatments as the “reset” button and at-home care as maintenance.
We’ve even created treatment-specific pre- and post-care regimens with these products to enhance your results from aesthetic treatments, including:
- Injectables
- Skin rejuvenation
- Lasers and light
Feeling Your Best
Skin conditions don’t just affect your self-image, they can affect your physical health and comfort, too. That’s why working with a board-certified skin doctor in Fort Lauderdale is so important—yes, even if you’re just looking for help finding the right skincare products in Fort Lauderdale.
We understand the science behind skin conditions, which is crucial to overcoming them, including:
- Acne
- Actinic keratosis
- Atypical moles
- Basal cell carcinoma
- Dermatitis and rashes
- Eczema
- Genital warts
- Melanoma
- Melasma
- Psoriasis
- Seborrheic dermatitis
- Squamous cell carcinoma
- Sun-damaged skin
Taking Preventative Measures
Skin cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in the United States, but it’s also the most preventable. We’re always advocating for preventative skincare because it’s more effective—and typically less expensive and stressful—than reactive treatments. Our collection of medical-grade products not only reduces your chances of developing skin cancer, but also prevents premature aging.

How to Build Your Routine
Sadly, there is no one-size-fits-all skincare routine—your skin is just as unique as you are. We recognize that it’s easy to get lost with how many skincare products in Fort Lauderdale are at your fingertips, so let’s start with the basics.
As a general rule of thumb, everyone needs to cleanse and moisturize their skin twice daily, apply sunscreen every morning, and apply retinol at night. Remember that when you add a new product into your routine, it will take a few weeks to see any changes because your skin’s cellular turnover rate—how quickly it sheds and replaces cells—is about 40 days.
During your consultation, we’ll help you determine which products are right for you, as well as when and how much of them to use. It’s easy to use too much or too little product—such as overusing retinol, which leads to dryness and redness—or layer them incorrectly, taking away from their results.
Why You Need to Work With a Doctor
Only a licensed dermatologist can treat medical skin conditions and skin cancers. At any given time, 1 in every 3 Americans is battling some kind of skin condition, so it’s more common than you may think.
Even if you’re purely looking to improve the appearance of your skin, working with a professional who can do so safely is still important. A doctor understands how your lifestyle, genetics, and current skincare routine play into your skin’s health, allowing them to create a more effective, customized treatment plan for you.
Skincare is just as scientific as it is artistic.

Plus, only physicians can fill your prescriptions and dispense them from our in-house pharmacy—taking the hassle out of medication management. At Galt Dermatology & Concierge Medicine, we offer direct care dermatology; no insurance hassles, long wait times, or rushed visits.
Why You Should Invest in Medical-Grade Skin Care
Just because a product claims to work doesn’t mean it does. Drugstore skincare products don’t have to undergo clinical trials, so in reality, there’s no saying if, how, or why they’re effective.
Our medical-grade skincare products in Fort Lauderdale, on the other hand, are backed by science. Whether you simply upgrade your routine with a few product switches or work with our doctors to pair products with in-office treatments, professional products are key to maximizing your skin’s look and health—and your investment.
Here’s a closer look at the benefits of these intentionally designed formulas.

Pure, Potent Ingredients
If you take a closer look at the labels on over-the-counter formulas, you’ll notice that the active ingredients are buried underneath “fillers” like fragrances, dyes, and alcohols. These additives have no purpose; in fact, they only worsen skin problems by knocking your skin’s delicate ecosystem off balance.
No single skincare product can work for everyone, but to appeal to the most people—and get more people to purchase their products—drugstore products often claim to treat umbrella concerns like “acne” and “aging” for all skin types. Medical-grade products, designed by skincare professionals, contain higher levels of more potent, targeted active ingredients that can actually address specific concerns. That’s why working with your dermatologist to find the right routine is so important—we’ve spent decades learning how to locate the root of your skin conditions.
Clinically Proven
Medical-grade skincare is held to higher standards than over-the-counter products, as they must be backed by clinical research. At Galt Dermatology, we’re proud to offer ALASTIN Skincare and ISDIN skincare products in Fort Lauderdale, both of which continue to revolutionize dermatology through incredible advancements.
Powered by TriHex Technology®, ALASTIN’s products boost collagen and elastin production to expedite healing from aesthetic procedures, combat aging, and beyond. Studies show how this technology clears your skin’s extracellular matrix to take your procedure’s results further—minimizing scarring and speeding up cellular regeneration.
Only Sold by Licensed Professionals
Because medical-grade products contain more potent active ingredients, you can only get them from a licensed professional. Remember, these formulas target more specific concerns than drugstore products, which means you have to truly understand your skin to make the right choices.
Don’t worry—that’s where we come in. During your first visit with our dermatologists, we’ll openly talk through your skin concerns and goals, lifestyle, and medical history. After inspecting your skin, we’ll work with you to create a custom plan, which may include a new routine and a combination of in-office treatments like intense pulsed light in Fort Lauderdale.
