If you’ve tried to book a dermatologist appointment recently, then you know the drill: months-long waits to get the care you need, sky-high bills, and an endless stream of insurance co-pays and bills that say, “This is not a bill.”
That’s why Sesame launched Skincare Rx, a monthly subscription that lets you skip the barriers associated with traditional dermatology care and get affordable, expert skin and hair care on your schedule.
Whether you're managing a chronic condition or looking to improve your skin’s overall health and appearance, Skincare Rx was created so that you don’t have to wait for great skin. Here’s everything you need to know:
What is Skincare Rx?
Skincare Rx is your direct line to expert care and prescription treatment for your skin and hair, anytime you need it. For just $59/month (plus the cost of any prescribed medications), you’ll receive ongoing care, video visits and unlimited messaging with a dedicated provider who can help you explore prescription medications and other treatments options.
How does Skincare Rx work?
We designed Skincare Rx to be as easy and flexible as possible. Simply choose a provider (you can browse real reviews to help you decide) and book a same-day video consult to talk about your goals or concerns. From there, you’ll receive a personalized care plan (which may include a prescription for medication, if appropriate), along with unlimited follow-up messaging for easy Rx refills requests, treatment adjustments & more.
Here’s how it works:
- Choose your dedicated provider
- Have a same-day video consult
- Receive a treatment plan + prescriptions if needed
- Get unlimited messaging and ongoing care, including Rx refills and treatment adjustments
- Maintain your subscription for as long as you need it — and cancel anytime.
What’s included in your Skincare Rx subscription?
With Skincare Rx, you’re not just getting a one-time visit. You’re building a relationship with a provider who’s there to support your skin’s journey, every step of the way. Your Skincare Rx subscription includes:
- Same-day virtual visits with a dedicated provider of your choice
- Unlimited messaging
- Ongoing follow-up care and treatment adjustments
- Convenient prescriptions and refills, available for same-day pickup at your local pharmacy
And since Sesame doesn’t accept insurance in order to keep prices low and transparent, you’ll always know exactly what you’re paying — no surprise bills, ever.
What can I get treatment for?
Whether you’re dealing with a chronic skin condition or want to treat an aesthetic concern like fine lines or hair loss, Skincare Rx has you covered. You’ll be able to access ongoing treatment for a range of conditions, including:
- Acne
- Anti‑aging
- Eczema
- Hair loss
- Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS)
- Eyelash growth
- Melasma
- Psoriasis
- Rosacea
And yes – you can be treated for multiple issues at the same time! Your provider will take a comprehensive look at your skin and help build you a treatment plan that’s as unique as you are.
Why we launched Skincare Rx
At Sesame, our mission is simple: make high-quality care more affordable and accessible for everyone, regardless of insurance status. But when it comes to dermatology, the system is still broken. Appointments take months to book. Prices are unpredictable. And too many people are left waiting on getting the care they need.
We built this subscription to cut through the red tape and give people direct, same-day access to expert skin and hair care, without the hassle of referrals, waitlists, or surprise bills. It’s high-quality dermatology that’s easy to start, easy to stick with, and always on your schedule.
