Meet DR. HEATHER D. ROGERS, MD

The Dermatologist Redefining Clean, Effective Skincare

As a dermatologist, I’ve treated thousands of patients and watched too many experience skin setbacks from overhyped, overcomplicated skincare. My first love has always been caring for patients - I never set out to create a skincare line.

But when I saw patients developing reactions to commonly recommended ointments, often after investing thousands of dollars in procedures, I felt compelled to create something better. Something more effective, cleaner, and safer. That commitment led to the creation of Restore Healing Balm and, ultimately, Doctor Rogers Skin Care.

While the brand has grown, the mission has remained the same: to cut through the noise by offering real solutions for better skin. As we age, our skin needs more, but tolerates less. That truth guides every formula I create. My dermatologist-developed, bioactive skincare delivers results by simplifying and elevating routines to what actually helps the skin.
