your skin, for life
“With all the hype, false promises and unproven claims of so many skin care products, people need an experienced dermatologist who can identify what really works and what does not,” says cosmetic dermatologist Dr. David P. Van Dam, who recently received an MBA from the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business.
The ambiance and sophistication of Van Dam Dermatology and Laser Center indicates a desire to provide a superior medical experience—efficient, compassionate and cutting-edge. “Every aspect of a patient’s experience is important from the helpfulness and congeniality of the staff to the comfort of the surroundings and the quality of the procedures performed,” says Dr. Van Dam, “Every patient deserves the best result possible whether the goal is wellness or beauty.”

In practice for more than 25 years, Dr. Van Dam recognized the health/beauty connection in dermatology early in his career and today offers his patients experience and innovation in aesthetic dermatology. In addition to diagnosing and treating skin cancer and other diseases, Dr. Van Dam’s dermatology and comprehensive laser center is also a national physician training center for Intense Pulsed Light (IPL™) facial rejuvenation therapy, offering patients specific, state-of-the-art laser and light technologies to effectively resurface, rejuvenate and restructure the skin. The adjoining Versa Medi-Spa, under Dr. Van Dam’s supervision, can sate aesthetic appetites for complementary services, offering a variety of facial treatments, hair removal, and proven physician-dispensed skin-care regimens. Deeply committed to his patients’ safety and comfort, Dr. Van Dam has achieved accreditation of his entire facility through the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care. Whether he is treating the health of skin or enhancing beauty with Botox or with fillers such as Juvéderm, Restylane, Sculptra or Radiesse, one thing is for sure: The ultimate reward for Dr. Van Dam, he says, is “experiencing and being responsible for the happiness people feel when I have helped them.”
