A Formulation Made For Your Skin, Not The Average Patient
Your skin is unlike anyone else's. Your treatment should be, too. Off-the-shelf medications are made for most people. Your skin may not cooperate with most.
At Voshell's, we prepare compounded formulations that can be tailored specifically for you —
- adjusting the strength
- combining compatible ingredients
- removing additives your skin doesn't tolerate
- changing the form entirely so it's easier to use.
All prepared based on a prescription from your provider.
Personalized Solutions for Complex Skin Needs
Skin conditions are often influenced by multiple factors including:
- Hormonal changes
- Inflammation
- Sensitivity and barrier function
- Environmental exposure
- Aging and collagen changes
- Individual skin chemistry
Compounding gives providers additional flexibility to develop more personalized therapeutic approaches.
Areas
Areas Where Compounded Dermatology Solutions May Be Used
Your healthcare providers may prescribe a compounded formulation for a range of skin conditions, including:
Acne and Hormonal Breakouts
Patients with acne-prone or hormonally influenced skin often need more than a standard formula. A compounded formulation can be adjusted around:
- Hormonal acne management
- Adult acne concerns
- Sensitive or reactive skin
- Combination treatment approaches
Compounded options may allow adjustments in strength or ingredient combinations based on patient tolerance and provider preference.
Anti-Aging and Skin Rejuvenation Support
For patients focused on the visible signs of aging, a compounded formulation can be built around your specific skin concerns:
- Fine lines and texture concerns
- Collagen support strategies
- Skin tone and pigmentation concerns
- Preventive skin wellness
Some providers may incorporate compounded ingredients into broader skin health and longevity-focused routines.
Hyperpigmentation and Skin Tone Support
Patients with pigmentation concerns often need formulations built around their specific pattern and skin sensitivity:
- Uneven skin tone
- Melasma-related concerns
- Post-inflammatory pigmentation
- Customized brightening protocols

Rosacea and Sensitive Skin Support
Patients with rosacea or highly reactive skin often can't tolerate standard formulations. A compounded preparation can be adjusted to:
- Remove irritants or preservatives that trigger flares
- Simplify the ingredient list
- Adjust concentrations for your sensitivity level
- Change the delivery form to something your skin tolerates

Scar and Texture Support
For patients recovering from surgery, injury, or a skin procedure, your provider may incorporate a compounded formulation into your care plan, tailored around:
- Scar care
- Skin texture concerns
- Post-procedure skin sensitivities
- Recovery-phase skin barrier needs

Oncology Skin Care Support
Patients undergoing cancer treatment often experience significant dermatological changes. Compounded formulations can be prepared around the specific skin concerns that accompany oncology care:
- Radiation dermatitis and skin reactions from radiation therapy
- Skin dryness, sensitivity, and changes associated with chemotherapy
- EGFR inhibitor-related rashes and skin inflammation
- Skin sensitivity associated with peripheral neuropathy
- Wound and skin barrier care
- Preservative-free options for hypersensitive or immunocompromised skin
Preparations can be tailored to avoid ingredients that may interact with active treatments and adjusted to the form that best fits each patient's needs.
Voshell's has served patients in this community for nearly 100 years. Supporting oncology patients is one of the things we feel most privileged to do.
Why Personalized Compounding Matters in Dermatology
Standard skin medications are formulated for broad populations — not for your specific skin biology, sensitivities, or history.
A compounded formulation is prepared around you. Your provider can prescribe:
- A concentration adjusted for your skin — not a fixed commercial strength
- A combination of compatible ingredients in a single preparation
- A formulation free of additives or preservatives you don't tolerate
- A simpler regimen with fewer products and fewer variables
- Adjustments as your skin's needs change over time
Customized Dosage Forms and Delivery Options
The form of a medication matters as much as what's in it. Depending on your skin type, the area of concern, and your preferences, your provider may prescribe a compounded formulation in:
- Cream
- Gel
- Lotion
- Foam
- Serum
- Ointment
- A customized topical combination
Each formulation is prepared based on your provider's prescription — in the form that fits your skin and your routine.
