SkinCare Physicians, Inc.

What SkinCare Physicians, Inc. does

SkinCare Physicians, Inc. is a physician-owned dermatology and cosmetic surgery practice founded in 2000 and headquartered at 1244 Boylston Street (Route 9) in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts. The practice is led by eight founding board-certified dermatologists — Kenneth A. Arndt, Jeffrey S. Dover, Michael S. Kaminer, Kay Shou-Mei Kane, Tania J. Phillips, Thomas E. Rohrer, Jeffrey M. Sobell, and Robin L. Travers — supported by six additional board-certified dermatologists, four advanced practice providers (NPs/PAs), aestheticians, and administrative staff, with Christine E. Foley serving as COO. Collectively the physician group has authored or co-authored more than 700 scientific articles, edited or authored more than 50 books, and held editorships across 18 medical journals plus editorial board positions on 14 additional periodicals, which is the foundation of its regional reputation and 2026 Boston magazine Top Doctors recognition (11 dermatologists, second consecutive year).

The practice operates a comprehensive dermatology platform under one roof, spanning medical dermatology (general, pediatric, psoriasis, skin cancer), surgical dermatology (Mohs Micrographic Surgery), cosmetic dermatology (a broad laser and light suite including Fraxel, Lumenis Encore, Palomar, Pearl, DEKA Dot, UltraClear, Clear + Brilliant, Vbeam, GentleLASE, Excel V, Pulsed-Dye, and Long pulsed Nd:YAG; injectables such as Botox, Dysport, Daxxify, and fillers from BELOTERO, JUVÉDERM, RADIESSE, Restylane, and Sculptra; body contouring via CoolSculpting and truSculpt flex; skin tightening with Sofwave, Thermage, Pellevé, and Tixel; and adjunct services like miraDry, microneedling, PRP for hair loss, and sclerotherapy), cosmetic surgery (liposuction), and aesthetician services (chemical peels, dermaplaning, HydraFacial). The group runs a Clinical Studies Center, a cosmeceutical testing service, and fellowship programs in Mohs surgery and cosmetic surgery laser plus a pre-doctoral program (Kenneth Arndt Pre-Doctoral Program), making it both a clinical and academic training site.

Revenue is generated from three streams: professional fee-for-service medical dermatology, out-of-pocket cosmetic dermatology and surgery, and an e-commerce skincare retail business (store.skincarephysicians.net) selling physician-recommended brands such as SkinCeuticals, SkinMedica, Skinbetter Science, Alastin, EltaMD, Dermalogica, ISDIN, and Nutrafol alongside the proprietary SkinCare Prescription label. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer: patients schedule in-person visits or online consultations and self-elect cosmetic procedures through interest forms; cosmetic pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The practice is independent, with no identified private equity or parent-company ownership, and remains geographically anchored to a single Chestnut Hill location serving the Boston–Brookline–Cambridge–Newton–Wellesley corridor.

Broad incumbents

Emerging players
