What The Dermatology Group does

The Dermatology Group is a multi-location dermatology practice headquartered in Mason, Ohio, operating eight clinic sites across the Greater Cincinnati metropolitan area in Ohio and Kentucky. Founded in 2004 and owned by PhyNet Dermatology LLC, the practice employs 102 staff and offers an integrated three-line service portfolio: medical dermatology (acne, eczema, psoriasis, skin cancer screening), surgical dermatology with fellowship-trained Mohs micrographic surgeons, and cosmetic dermatology (BOTOX, Juvéderm fillers, Kybella, HydraFacial, DiamondGlow, microneedling, chemical peels, laser treatments, and Coolsculpting). Its clinical differentiation centers on Mohs micrographic surgery, described as the gold standard for skin cancer treatment with the highest cure rate and smallest scar, combined with a full in-house service model that eliminates patient referrals to outside providers.

Revenue derives from three streams. Medical and surgical dermatology services are billed through major insurance plans on a fee-for-service basis, generating the bulk of patient encounters. Cosmetic dermatology and aesthetic treatments are predominantly paid out-of-pocket, supported by a structured promotional pricing program including 'Buy 2 areas get 1 free' offers on Botox and dermal fillers, Juvéderm Day gift card events, and 20% first-treatment discounts for new cosmetic patients. In June 2025, the practice launched MyDermSpot, a proprietary e-commerce platform selling medical-grade skincare brands including SkinCeuticals and EltaMD via online ordering with home delivery and in-office pickup. Marketing is conducted through a patient education blog, active social media profiles on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter, email newsletters, and SMS communications, with online appointment scheduling through the healow.com patient portal.
