DFP, Inc. is a corporation formed to serve her dermatology patients. While a resident in Dermatology at Temple University, Dr. Forte-Pathroff witnessed the development of Alpha Hydroxy Acids for topical use.  She was able to use and test these Alpha Hydroxy Acids on various skin conditions and was very impressed with the results. This began her interest in topical therapy for skin health. Today, Dr. Forte-Pathroff evaluates new ingredients as soon as they are available and directs the formulation of new products using these ingredients. In addition to her complete therapeutic line, there is a great line of color cosmetic available.

 

After many years of use, Dr. Forte-Pathroff has found these products to be extremely well tolerated. With proper use, irritation rarely occurs.  As with any skin product, patients are asked to begin slowly, first applying the products to the inner arm to make sure there are no irritations or allergies. The products should then be applied every other day, working up to daily use according to the directions for your skin type. Remember your daily sunscreen, avoid peak sun time, cover up, don’t burn, and never use tanning booths.  Please enjoy our wide selection of therapeutic products and color cosmetics and watch for our patent pending “sun and moon” directions. Use products marked with a sun in the A.M., and products marked with a moon in the P.M., and follow the number order.
