Q

Dr. Dennis Gross, NYC dermatologist, has devoted his life to the science of skincare. Skin, the largest organ of the body, is the first to show signs of both external and internal health. The quality and scope of his education and research inspired a passion within to fight the deadly epidemic of skin cancer. During his early years as a dermatologist in NYC, Dr. Gross would spend hours “in the field” conducting free skin cancer screenings in and around NYC, educating the public about this life-threatening disease.

Q

In addition to disease prevention, Dr. Gross also saw a need to reverse sun damage, the number one cause of aging and wrinkles. He immediately began educating his patients about the importance of sun protection – not only for melanoma prevention, but as a beauty treatment. Within a few short years, he became one of the most respected and sought-after dermatologists in the country.

Q

In his private practice, Dr. Gross witnessed his patients’ quest for beauty and their dissatisfaction with the scope of beauty treatments available to address everything from aging to acne. With chemical peels becoming increasingly popular, he observed a phenomenon he describes as “over-exfoliation.” These peels produced chronic inflammation and sabotaged the beauty and health of his patients’ skin. Determined to improve upon these harsh and ineffective treatments, he formulated the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel, a facial peel originally created as a treatment for use on his patients.

The Alpha Beta® Professional System was soon formulated for estheticians to administer in a spa setting nationwide. Simultaneously, Gross formulated the Alpha Beta® Daily Face Peel for everyday, at-home use. Now wildly popular, this non-irritating, microexfoliating™ treatment eliminates dullness, fights aging, treats breakouts, shrinks pores and calms redness (just to name a few).
