Project Overview
Advanced Dermatology is one of the largest dermatology networks in the United States, offering medical, cosmetic, pediatric, and surgical skin care services across 150+ locations. For this project, we redesigned and optimized the website to create a unified, patient-centered digital platform that improves access to care and strengthens trust across its nationwide network.
The objective was to simplify how patients discover dermatology services, find nearby providers, and book appointments—while clearly communicating the brand’s “relationship-based care” philosophy. The platform needed to support both medical and cosmetic journeys, from routine skin conditions to advanced treatments and skin cancer care.
The Concept
We redesigned and optimized the Advanced Dermatology website to position it as a leading national provider of expert medical and cosmetic dermatology services. The core idea was to create a patient-friendly digital platform that highlights “relationship-based care,” emphasizes quick access to treatment, and clearly communicates comprehensive solutions for skin, hair, and nail conditions.
The site focuses on building trust through clinical expertise, advanced technology, and real patient outcomes while making it simple for visitors to find nearby locations, book same-day or next-day appointments, and explore both medical and cosmetic treatments.
Project Goals
- Educate patients on a wide range of dermatology services (medical, cosmetic, pediatric, and skin cancer care)
- Showcase the benefits of relationship-based, personalized care and leading-edge technology
- Simplify appointment booking and location discovery across the national network
- Build credibility with patient ratings, expert profiles, and trust signals
- Improve user experience with fast, mobile-friendly navigation and strong calls-to-action
Design Approach
A clean, professional, and reassuring design with high-quality medical imagery, scannable service sections, calming visuals, and intuitive navigation. The layout uses clear benefit-focused content, provider spotlights, and prominent “Book Online” or “Find an Office Near You” buttons to reduce friction and encourage immediate action.
