The most important step in dermatology is often the diagnosis—and at the clinic, Raisa Acosta builds it around dermatoscopy and, when needed, skin biopsy. Her practice combines careful history-taking with non-invasive examination of moles, pigmented lesions, and other skin findings using a high-resolution dermatoscope. When a definitive answer is required, biopsy and complementary studies are used to guide treatment. From there, she designs individualized plans that respect both skin health and aesthetic goals. As a specialist at the clinic, Dr. Acosta covers clinical dermatology, dermatopathology, and dermatologic surgery, while also bringing training in family therapy into the consultation. She emphasizes that skin often reflects emotional stress, with examples such as flares during stressful periods, itching before important events, and adult acne that returns when patients feel overloaded. Each session is applied personally, with decisions made case by case rather than through automatic protocols.

Work experience

1987–present — Clinical practice focused on skin care, with an office in La Esperilla, Santo Domingo.

Clinical focus and techniques

Consultations are structured around medical dermatology diagnostics first, then aesthetic procedures when appropriate—always with the same goal: to treat what is actually happening in the skin.

Dermatoscopy — non-invasive examination of moles, spots, and pigmented lesions with a high-resolution dermatoscope for early detection of suspicious changes.
Skin biopsy — taking a sample of skin tissue for histopathological study when a lesion needs a definitive diagnosis.
Cryotherapy — treatment with liquid nitrogen for warts, seborrheic keratoses, actinic keratoses, and other benign lesions.
Deep facial cleansing — professional extraction of comedones, exfoliation, and a mask as a foundation routine.
Chemical peeling — controlled chemical exfoliation aimed at more uniform texture and reduced appearance of spots.
Oxygen therapy — application of medicinal oxygen and cosmeticeutical actives for tired, dull, or stressed skin.
Collagen veil — a procedure using pure collagen to provide deep hydration and improve skin elasticity.
