OptiSkin Medical opened in 2021, founded by Dr. Orit Markowitz to make her skin cancer approach more widely available. The practice works as a treatment, training and research center: physicians come to learn its noninvasive skin cancer protocols, and the practice also conducts clinical research, including noninvasive therapies for psoriasis and eczema.
Services fall into cosmetic work, skin cancer care, hair treatments, medical dermatology and men's services. Cosmetic options include lasers, neuromodulators and hyaluronic acid fillers, biostimulation, threads and resurfacing, along with treatments for pigment, scars, stretch marks and preventive care aimed at delaying visible aging. Skin cancer care centers on noninvasive diagnosis and treatment, with Mohs surgery and reconstruction also offered, and imaging tools such as dermoscopy, reflectance confocal microscopy and low-coherence optical coherence tomography used for early detection.
Laser hair removal consultations are scheduled in advance. Before treatment, clients are asked to avoid sun and tanning for two weeks, shave 24 hours prior, and avoid waxing or plucking for four weeks. Afterward, the practice advises avoiding heat for 24 to 48 hours, using SPF 30 or higher, and skipping exfoliants and retinol for one week. Laser hair removal typically takes six to eight sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, with maintenance sessions sometimes needed.
The practice accepts Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Empire BCBS, Aetna, Oxford Health, Medicare and UnitedHealthcare. Appointments can be booked through Zocdoc or directly through the practice website, and online payment is available.
The practice favors noninvasive diagnosis and treatment, with its Markowitz Method for skin cancer aiming at minimal cutting. It describes its care as cutting-edge and noninvasive.
The practice describes its setting as spa-like within a treatment, training and research center, and the office uses IQAir HyperHEPA air filtration.
