When it comes to skincare that truly delivers results, where you purchase it is just as important as what’s inside the bottle. At R+H Aesthetic Medicine, we see it every day—patients who come to us frustrated, confused, and disappointed after months (or years) of using products they thought would work… but didn’t.
Here’s the truth that most people aren’t told: buying skincare from drugstores, grocery stores, unauthorized websites, or even discounted online retailers like Amazon can do more harm than good—both for your skin and your wallet.
The Hidden Cost of Cheap Skincare
It’s easy to be lured by the price tag. A drugstore “brightening serum” for $29.99 seems like a steal compared to a $120 professional-grade antioxidant serum. But what’s hiding behind that lower price?
Over-the-counter products are legally limited in potency. They may contain the same ingredient names—like retinol or vitamin C—but in diluted, less stable, or less absorbable forms that never penetrate deeply enough to create real change.
Poor storage conditions (think hot warehouses, exposure to light or oxygen, and months on the shelf) degrade the active ingredients before you ever open the bottle.
Many of these products are packed with fillers, artificial fragrances, and unstable preservatives, which can lead to irritation, clogged pores, and inflammation—setting you back even further on your skin journey.
So what seems “cheaper” up front actually becomes more expensive in the long run:
You use more product, see fewer results, waste months of your time, and eventually end up needing professional correction.
Medical-Grade Skincare: More Potent, More Predictable, and More Cost-Efficient
Medical-grade skincare—like the lines we carry at R+H Aesthetic Medicine—is clinically formulated to go beyond the surface. These products:
Use bioavailable ingredients at proven therapeutic concentrations
Penetrate deep into the dermis where real repair happens
Are backed by rigorous clinical studies, physician oversight, and evidence-based protocols
Are manufactured and shipped with strict quality control, preserving the stability and integrity of every product
When used correctly, medical-grade products don’t just moisturize or exfoliate—they retrain your skin to function like younger, healthier skin. And because they’re more potent, you need far less product and achieve faster, longer-lasting results—making them a smarter investment in every way.
