Why You Don’t Need a NYC Clinic for Expert, Fast, and Compassionate Acne Treatment

A recent New York Times feature on Dr. Amy Wechsler’s acne-focused clinic, Spotless, drew a lot of attention—and for good reason. It highlighted a model of acne care that is expert-driven, personalized, and quickly accessible.

The good news?

You don’t need a Manhattan ZIP code to receive this level of care. Many of the same services and treatment philosophies are already available at Dermatology Physicians of Connecticut.

While we can’t always guarantee same-day visits, our team does everything possible to offer prompt scheduling—especially for urgent acne flares.
