About

Scott & Co. Skin is a boutique dermatology and aesthetics practice at 3840 Via De La Valle #100, Del Mar, CA 92014, founded and led by Dr. Laura Scott, a board-certified dermatologist who earned her medical degree from Harvard Medical School. Dr. Scott completed her dermatology residency at the University of Miami Department of Dermatology and Cutaneous Surgery, where she received advanced training in diagnosing and treating skin conditions across all skin tones. She previously served as Associate Director of the Skin of Color Division at the University of Miami before relocating to San Diego to open her own practice. Scott & Co. Skin operates as a direct-care clinic, meaning it does not accept insurance and instead offers transparent, upfront pricing for every service listed on its website. That model allows Dr. Scott to spend more time per patient, with appointments scheduled to avoid the rushed visits common in insurance-driven practices. Services span medical dermatology — including acne treatment, eczema management, seborrheic dermatitis care, and skin cancer screenings — alongside aesthetic treatments with specialized protocols safe for darker skin tones. Pediatric dermatology is also a core offering, treating babies, children, and teens with gentle, age-appropriate care. Dr. Scott holds FAAD designation from the American Academy of Dermatology, has authored peer-reviewed research published in journals like Cutis, and has been featured as an expert consultant for national and international skincare brands. She also co-founded Korej Skin, her own skincare line. Her clinic maintains a perfect 5.0 Google rating. Appointments are required. The office is wheelchair accessible and accepts credit cards, debit cards, and NFC mobile payments. Just two blocks east along Via De La Valle, patients recovering from procedures can continue their rehabilitation at Rancho Del Mar Physical Therapy, which offers specialized orthopedic recovery programs. Those considering complementary cosmetic procedures will find Ranch & Coast Plastic Surgery on nearby Camino Del Mar, where board-certified surgeons specialize in facial rejuvenation and body contouring.
