Dermatology

Your skin is as unique as you are—and when it comes to treating dermatological conditions, one-size-fits-all approaches may not always work. At Wingate’s Pharmacy, we offer custom-compounded dermatology treatments tailored to the individual needs of each patient. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition or responding to a temporary skin concern, our compounding pharmacists collaborate with dermatologists and healthcare providers to help create solutions that meet your specific needs.

Common Dermatologic Conditions:

We compound medications for a wide range of skin-related conditions, including:

  • Acne and rosacea
  • Psoriasis
  • Eczema and atopic dermatitis
  • Hyperpigmentation or melasma
  • Warts and molluscum
  • Scarring and keloids
  • Fungal infections (tinea, onychomycosis)
  • Hair loss or thinning
  • Pruritus (itching)
  • Sun damage or photoaging
  • Post-procedure support (chemical peels, laser treatments)

Individualized Formulations and Custom Strengths

Dermatologic conditions often respond best to personalized care. At Wingate’s Pharmacy, we can:

  • Customize active ingredient concentrations based on patient needs
  • Combine multiple agents (such as retinoids, antibiotics, antifungals, or corticosteroids) in one preparation, when prescribed
  • Omit allergens, dyes, or preservatives when sensitivities are a concern
  • Formulate therapies for targeted application areas (e.g., scalp, eyelids, nails, or mucosal areas)

Dosage Forms and Delivery Systems

We offer a wide variety of dermatology-specific dosage forms, including:

  • Topical creams, ointments, and gels
  • Transdermal or liposomal bases for enhanced skin penetration
  • Serums and lotions for cosmetic or sensitive areas
  • Medicated foams or sprays for hard-to-reach areas (e.g., scalp)
  • Scalp solutions or shampoo-based medications
  • Nail lacquers or medicated polishes
  • Medicated sticks or balms for travel and easy application
