Hear from our patients

“I was initially skeptical about virtual care, but Dr. Crute changed my perspective. Her use of digital tools to assess and diagnose my skin issues was impressive. Highly recommend for anyone needing convenient, expert, comprehensive skin care.”

Shana E.

“My provider was extremely professional and listened to all my concerns. It was nice to be able to discuss all my options versus being rushed through the appointment. My rosacea has improved a ton - I recommend this practice."

Robert L.

“Quickest and simplest form of dermatology care I’ve experienced. Plus, straight-forward billing that’s affordable. I will probably always use Piction from now on."

Frequently asked questions

What conditions does Piction treat?

We treat hundreds of skin, hair and nail concerns quickly and effectively. Complete our questionnaire today and see how we can help you.

What if I need in-person care?

More than 80% of dermatology cases can be effectively treated virtually. If your dermatologist determines that your condition requires in-person care, they will refer you to a local specialist, and your wait time will be shortened relative to patients without a referral.

What treatments does Piction offer?

Like traditional in-person dermatologists, your Piction clinician will reference the full range of available medications and non-drug treatment options to recommend the right care plan for your unique condition.

Do you treat children?

Yes—Piction provides pediatric dermatology care for patients ages 2 and up.

How quickly will my care team respond to my text?

You can expect a timely response to your SMS questions within 2 business hours (M-F 8am-5pm ET).
