Dermatology

Marketing for Dermatologists

Eczema, acne, psoriasis, hair loss and skin checks. Medical skin patients search differently from aesthetic ones: they want a diagnosis and a doctor, not a treatment menu.

The Sector Reality

What ‘dermatology’ clinic owners actually face

01

Aesthetic clinics crowd the results

Searches like 'acne treatment singapore' are full of aesthetic clinics. A medical dermatology practice has to show clearly that it diagnoses and treats skin disease.

02

The title matters here

Patients look for a 'dermatologist', and many clinics use the word loosely. Showing registration correctly is both a legal requirement and a real advantage.

03

Chronic patients research treatment options

Eczema and psoriasis patients live with their condition for years and read about every option. Accurate condition content keeps your practice in their research.

Compliance for Dermatology

The regulatory framework

HCSA advertising rules and SMC's Ethical Code apply: no testimonials, before/after or after-only images, superlatives, outcome promises or inducements. 'Dermatologist' only for doctors on the Specialist Register in Dermatology. Prescription-only medicines can't be promoted to the public, so treatment content describes approaches, not drug brands. Any aesthetic procedures also fall under SMC's Guidelines on Aesthetic Practices.

FAQ

Common questions from dermatology clinic owners

How is this different from your aesthetic clinic work?+

Medical dermatology is condition-led: patients want a diagnosis and ongoing care. Aesthetic marketing leans on social and treatments. We keep the two clearly separate on your site and in ads.

Can we show photos of skin conditions?+

Educational images of a condition can be used carefully, sourced properly and not identifiable. Before/after or treatment result photos can't.
