Sergio Gaitan MD FAAD | Cosmetic Dermatologist

Now we know not everyone responds as expected to all treatments. The key is knowing how to adjust to make sure they get the result they are after. The skin is complex, but we can all agree the result of clear skin that makes you feel good is what we are going to achieve. Read more>>
