What Makes Musely Different from Over the Counter Skincare?

Instead of guessing which random serum might work, Musely uses an online medical intake that’s reviewed by a Board-Certified dermatologist who evaluates your skin concerns and determines an appropriate prescription formula to prescribe.  So rather than wasting money on products that promise everything but deliver nothing, Musely gives you something tailored to your skin.

How the Musely Prescription Process Works (And Why It’s Actually Easy)

If you’ve never tried a prescription skincare brand before, it might sound intimidating but Musely makes it incredibly simple.

Here’s how it works:

1. You answer a few quick questions about your skin concerns

2. Upload photos of your skin

3. A dermatologist reviews your information

4. You receive a prescription

5. Your formula is freshly compounded at the pharmacy

6. Your treatment ships directly to your door

That’s it.

No in-person appointment. No scheduling hassles. No waiting months to get in.

Musely has a variety of treatments, including options for hormonal skin changes, perimenopause/menopause concerns, and more. Shop all their amazing treatments here.
