Meet Dr. Marisa Garshick, M.D., FAAD

Located in New York City, Dr. Garshick is a board-certified dermatologist and clinical assistant professor at Weill Cornell Medicine. She works with patients to address a wide variety of skin concerns, including acne and eczema to psoriasis, rosacea, skin cancer, signs of aging, and more.

Both in clinical practice and in the classroom, she strives to educate others about skin health and skin conditions, break down many of the common skin-care myths out there, and ultimately help people feel confident in their own skin.

One of her main messages? “That taking care of your skin does not have to be complicated,” she says. Dr. Garshick uses her platform on Instagram to share fun, easy-to-digest information about all things skin-related and answer many of the most common questions she receives in the office and as a professor. From whether sunscreen is really necessary, to the best methods for addressing acne, to top anti-aging tips for supporting a youthful glow, she answers it all—and in a way that’s both educational and entertaining. And with so many “experts” populating our newsfeeds these days, we sure are glad credentialed authorities like Dr. Garshick are using social media to share real-deal advice. 

Now, as a member of The Vitamin Shoppe Wellness Council, Dr. Garshick will answer your biggest skin health and beauty questions. In fact, she’s already gotten started! In this video on our Instagram, she highlights her biggest tips for taking care of your skin in the summertime.
