We are pleased to announce that Exactly Dermatology, Aesthetics, and Health has been designated as an official STS-approved medical provider. In our unwavering commitment to transcend conventional practices and embrace personalized care, we have established a strategic partnership with Skin Type Solutions—the pioneering, scientifically validated system meticulously developed by esteemed dermatologist Dr. Leslie Baumann.
We firmly believe that effective skincare is not a one-size-fits-all approach; it is a medical discipline. By integrating the Baumann Skin Type® classification system into our Madison practice, we are providing you with the same technology utilized in clinical research and by hundreds of dermatologists worldwide to treat over 200,000 patients.
Our Approach: Diagnosing Your Skin’s “Personality”
At Exactly Dermatology, we prioritize skin health by conducting a comprehensive diagnosis, akin to the approach we take for the rest of your body. Utilizing our proprietary STS software, we transcend basic descriptors such as “dry” or “oily.” Instead, we identify your specific Baumann Skin Type®—one of 16 distinct “skin personalities” determined by four fundamental biological factors:
From 40,000 Combinations to Your Ideal Protocol:
Upon determining your specific skin type, we do not merely recommend a brand; we prescribe a medical-grade regimen. Our software generates a customized plan from over 40,000 potential combinations, selecting products from over 40 cosmeceutical brands based on stringent scientific guidelines.
Ingredient Precision: We identify the precise ingredients you must utilize and those you must avoid based on your phenotype.
Lifestyle Integration: Your regimen adapts to pregnancy, breastfeeding, allergies, and seasonal variations.
Procedure Optimization: We modify your skincare regimen before and after in-office aesthetic treatments to optimize results and minimize downtime.
Dynamic Adjustments: Your skin undergoes changes; so does your plan. We adjust your regimen monthly based on your skin’s response.
Unlike retail stores or spas that promote a single brand, Exactly Dermatology operates on a brand agnostic principle. We adhere to the stringent ethical guidelines of the Society of Cosmetic Dermatology (STS), which emphasize honesty, integrity, and transparency. We do not endorse products solely because we stock them; instead, we recommend them based on their adherence to rigorous, patented formulation standards and their proven efficacy in improving skin health.
Our objective is to mitigate the confusion prevalent in the beauty industry and minimize the consumption of ineffective or potentially harmful products. We strive to serve as the discerning source of skincare in Madison.
Transforming Your Skin Type is Achievable:
Contrary to popular belief, many individuals assume they are destined to live with their inherent skin type. However, scientific research challenges this notion. The patented methodology employed by Skin Type Solutions is specifically designed to alter your skin to a healthier state.
Whether you are grappling with persistent adult acne, noticeable redness or rosacea, unwanted pigmentation, or premature aging, our system provides a comprehensive roadmap. We empower you with clear, written instructions and a systematic approach to ultimately attain the skin health you have diligently pursued.
We’ve partnered with Skin Type Solutions to provide personalized skincare routines based on scientifically researched products. Their patented system, developed by dermatologist Leslie Baumann, MD, identifies your skin as one of 16 types through a quick online quiz, allowing us to better target your specific needs. You’ll receive tailored product recommendations that have undergone rigorous testing and approval, along with access to vetted brands and perks like discounts, rewards, and free shipping on qualifying orders.
