Boosting Patient Engagement for Practicing Dermatologists



Healthy skin is always in.


Consciousness around skin and its care keeps growing with time. Social media platforms are witnessing a flood of content around ‘skin care routines’ and ‘tips for healthy skin at home’.

But the real concern is about its authenticity as, not all of them are from the professionals. It is either via influencer or experienced individual, but not the experts!

Today, they are more on the finding side and believe in researching on the subject of their concern by all means possible. They endeavor to become partners in their own care.

To add to this, COVID-19 pandemic with its lockdown period has given people plenty of time to know their skin better. This has resulted in a great demand for resources that help them to take charge of their health.
