Dr. David Amato is a man on a mission: To change the way people think about dermatologists. According to the Harrisburg dermatologic surgeon, most people readily seek out a specialist like himself when they're worried about a wart or something more serious, such as skin cancer. But some seem to think seeing a dermatologist for wrinkles is, well, …unheard-of. People might think that sounds more like plastic surgery. Dr. Amato is out to change that perception.

'The dermatologist’s primary focus is nail, hair and skin. That is the core of our specialty. We understand that signs of aging or skin disfigurement can be psychologically damaging for some people.' Dr. Amato notes, 'If you don’t feel you look good, it can effect the way you live your life. When we feel we are looking our best, we are more self-confident, giving others a sense that we are happy and optimistic about ourselves and our lives.'

Which is why Dr. Amato established ‘All About Faces’ at Community Dermatology, a facility dedicated not only to treating skin disorders, but also to help patients feel and look good.

When asked about Dr. Amato, patients often use the term ‘cutting-edge’ to describe him.

“We pride ourselves on being ahead of the curve by offering the latest advances in technology. Our practice was one of the first 50 across the country to use the long pulse Alexandrite laser for hair removal. I've been using botox since 1994, and all the fillers for as long as they've been available. With cutting-edge surgical and non-surgical technologies available, there is no reason to live with features that make you feel unattractive,” notes Dr. Amato.

For example, Community Dermatology uses the latest technologies for skin rejuvenation. "We're very excited about the breakthroughs in radiosurgery allowing us to focus on the entire body, contouring and toning the skin. With technlogies like Thermage and Accent, we definitely have firming techniques that can battle cellulite and fatty deposits anywhere on the body." The non- ablative and fractional lasers bring a new level of non-invasive treatments of wrinkles and scars. Plus, Dr. Amato uses the latest advances in home care, including the most powerful antioxidants as well as naturally occurring compounds which actually give the skin a lift, tightening the whole face within hours of application.
