Why Dr. Rossi?

sensitive skin, special care

Dr. Rossi embarked on a mission to rethink skin care and create de-aging solutions appropriate for all, regardless of age, gender, or level of skin sensitivity. His goal: To combat the signs of skin aging while suppressing sensitization.

After treating both those patients battling cancer and those seeking cosmetic treatments, Dr. Rossi noticed that when his patients looked better, they felt better and healed more quickly. But his patients with sensitive skin couldn’t get the results they wanted because products in the market aggravated their sensitivity.

The Breakthrough

Dr. Rossi developed his landmark formulas with his proprietary Bio-TheriacTM complex, which helps correct the visible effects of aging and environmental aggressors while reducing sensitization. Dr. Rossi’s formulas exclude the use of ingredients that neither support skin health nor aid in its appearance, such as irritants, fillers, and fragrance.

The result is a relentlessly perfected and tested, revolutionary line of luxury treatments that will reveal your healthiest looking, most vibrant skin regardless of your gender identity, complexion, or skin condition. 

NEXT-GENERATION MEDICAL-GRADE SKIN CARE

"Skin sensitivity is not just discomfort—it can be tied to one of the root causes of premature skin aging. What we put on our skin matters, so if a product causes irritation it’s a big red flag and you’re probably doing more harm than good to your skin. I created this line of clean, high-performing products to restore skin to its youthful, healthy look while remaining non-irritating and safe to use on all skin types, including on the skin conditions of my cancer patients. This type of medical-grade skin care has never been done before."

The proof is in the pudding!

The proof is sure in the pudding! This product delivers. I have always struggled with redness and after using this product for a while, I have noticed a significant improvement with my skin. My redness has calmed down and there is even a glow to my skin. I look and feel rejuvenated and hydrated! My friends and family have also noticed a difference. I highly recommend this product to everyone.

Powerful Yet Gentle

I was gifted by De. Rossi Derm MD. This is a powerful and clinical serum that works and you can tell. My skin felt smoother, looked less red, and overall improved. It is silky smooth and absorbs well into my skin. I noticed that my skin felt more plump and youthful. It hasn’t irritated me and has been great overall.

Awesome serum

I am absolutely in love with this Dr. Rossi INTENSE RENEWING SERUM. I have been using it for two weeks and I can already see awesome results. It has a nice silky texture. It helps to even tone while delivering visibly smoother skin. This serum significantly boosts skin firmness and measurably diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

I use it twice a day AM and PM applying on my face and neck.

Lovely!

I’ve been incorporating this serum into my routine for a couple of weeks and love how it feels on my skin. It’s not sticky or heavy and applies nice and smoothly. I’ve noticed my skin having a dewy look after applying, and feel like it provides a lot of moisture. My skin has started to smoothen out a bit more as well and I think this product is to thank! I definitely recommend this if it’s in your skincare budget. I received it complimentary from Dr. Rossi Derm MD
