Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld isn’t your average dermatologist. He’s the rare breed of physician who, for over four decades, has defied the mundane bureaucratic confines of the healthcare system to provide something far more precious: access. Access to skin care. Access to expertise. Access to a doctor who doesn’t punch a clock, but who answers the call of those in need, wherever they may be. This isn’t your typical house call; it’s not a man in a white coat rolling up with a stethoscope, preparing to press you for 30 seconds before leaving. No, this is a 24/7 operation, and Dr. Rothfeld has been at it in Manhattan like a true professional, ready at a moment’s notice to treat whatever condition you walk through his door with—whether it’s 3 PM or 3 AM.

From the polished towers of the Upper East Side to the ever-bustling streets of the Lower West, his patients trust him with the most intimate concerns of their skin. Acne? He’s there. Eczema flaring up like it’s got a vendetta against your peaceful night’s sleep? He’ll be there. Psoriasis making an unwelcome appearance like that one ex who refuses to stay gone? You bet he’ll show up, armed with solutions that work. And don’t get him started on rosacea—it’s the kind of condition that keeps him up at night just thinking about it, but somehow, with his experienced hands, it’s treated like an old friend he’s known too long.

And the aging process—well, it doesn't stop for anyone, not even for Dr. Rothfeld. He knows that the face we put out to the world often feels like the face we can’t control. Wrinkles, sun spots, crow’s feet—they don’t get to define us, even if society tries to put us in a box. That’s why he's dedicated himself to giving his patients an opportunity to turn back the hands of time, using non-invasive treatments and his surgical expertise to restore what age might try to steal.

But here’s the rub. Dr. Rothfeld doesn’t accept insurance. And before you turn around in shock, know that this isn’t some ploy to fill his pockets or make a quick buck. Oh no, he’s too smart for that. Instead, it’s a conscious decision to sidestep the quagmire of red tape, waiting rooms, and the kind of treatment that leaves you wondering if you’ve just been a patient in a mill. No, you get to skip the nonsense. You get the real deal. A doctor who shows up on his own time because you’re worth it. Because your skin is worth it.

You’ve got a condition that needs attention and you need it now? Pick up the phone. Whether it's the dreaded acne that has turned into an uninvited guest, or the stubborn, lifelong battle with eczema, Dr. Rothfeld will come to you. He knows the game well enough to understand that sometimes you can’t wait until Tuesday at 2 PM to feel better. This isn’t a transactional experience; this is a doctor who’s built a career based on treating the whole person—because your skin isn’t just skin; it’s a reflection of you.

Now, let’s not pretend Dr. Rothfeld is some saint, sitting on a pedestal offering his services like a martyr. No, he’s a man who knows how to laugh at the absurdity of it all, whether it’s at the way insurance companies make the simple act of getting care feel like a circus, or the way people act as though a little Botox is the answer to their existential crises. He might have a serious side when it comes to treating skin conditions, but don’t be surprised if you catch him dropping a well-timed joke about the latest cosmetic trends, or explaining why aging gracefully is a lot more about attitude than about squeezing yourself into a pill-popping frenzy.

For 40 years, Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld has been one of Manhattan’s best-kept secrets—and it’s time that secret is out. When you need the best, the most personalized, and the most reliable dermatologist around, Dr. Rothfeld is your man. No insurance, no waiting rooms, just a doctor who’s there when you need him most.

Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld – Where Acne Meets Its Match

Acne isn’t just a skin condition—it’s a confidence thief. It hijacks first impressions, sabotages self-esteem, and overstays its welcome like an uninvited guest. Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld doesn’t just treat acne; he erases its legacy, giving patients clear, radiant skin and a renewed sense of confidence.

For over four decades, Dr. Rothfeld has been personally treating every patient at his Park Avenue clinic—open 24/7, seven days a week. No assistants. No rushed appointments. Just world-class dermatology, tailored to your skin.


Real Patients. Real Results. Real Confidence.

“I went from looking like a ‘before’ photo to never needing an ‘after’ one.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Melissa T.

I used to wear makeup the way a medieval knight wore armor—because my skin was at war with itself. I had deep cystic acne, scars like battle wounds, and every morning felt like a fight with the mirror. I tried everything—antibiotics, Accutane, lasers, voodoo spells—nothing worked.

Then I met Dr. Rothfeld. Within three months, my skin wasn’t just “better”—it was completely clear. No more heavy foundation. No more hiding. Just me, unfiltered.


“I’d been battling acne for 18 years. Dr. Rothfeld won the war in 3 months.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Jason B.

I have tried it all—pills, creams, lasers, even those late-night infomercial “miracle” products that cost more than my rent. Every time, acne came back like a bad ex—unwanted, persistent, and ruining my confidence.

Dr. Rothfeld diagnosed my skin within minutes, customized a treatment plan, and within weeks, my face looked like it had been Photoshopped—except this was real life. No more cystic breakouts. No more scars. No more hiding. Just clear, healthy skin that actually stays that way.


“I was 34, still breaking out like a teenager. Then I found the Acne Whisperer.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Sophia L.

There’s something uniquely soul-crushing about being in your 30s with the skin of a hormonal high school sophomore. I spent years piling on concealer, dodging mirrors, and avoiding dates because I didn’t want someone seeing my face up close.

Then came Dr. Rothfeld—and the real magic began. No fluff, no false promises. Just results. Within two months, my skin transformed. Now, I get compliments instead of unsolicited “skincare advice.” I walk out the door makeup-free. I live my life without thinking about my skin. That’s the kind of freedom you don’t know you’re missing until you have it.

Acne Skin Care FAQs
By Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld, Board-Certified Dermatologist, 40 Years of Experience
629 Park Avenue, NYC


Let’s cut through the nonsense, shall we? Acne isn’t just about greasy pizza or skipping your nightly face wash—though if you’re doing both, we need to talk. It’s a complex skin condition influenced by hormones, genetics, and yes, sometimes, your questionable life choices. And since I’ve spent four decades at the epicenter of skin salvation, let’s tackle the most common acne questions with a little truth, a little science, and just enough humor to make this painless—unlike that cystic nightmare on your jawline.

1. What actually causes acne?

If you think it’s because you touched your face once last Tuesday, think again. Acne is a perfect storm of excess oil production, clogged pores, bacteria, and inflammation. Throw in some hormonal chaos and a diet full of processed garbage, and voilà!—a breakout worthy of its own horror movie franchise.

2. Will chocolate and fried foods ruin my skin?

Look, I’m not saying a double cheeseburger with fries is a straight shot to Zitville, but some studies suggest that high glycemic index foods and dairy can exacerbate acne. So if you’re mainlining milkshakes and wondering why your T-zone looks like an active volcano, we may have our culprit.

3. Do I need a 10-step skincare routine to cure my acne?

No. Unless you have a sponsorship deal with a K-beauty brand, you don’t need to clutter your bathroom sink with 37 different serums. A solid routine should include a gentle cleanser, a medical-grade acne treatment (hello, retinoids!), and a lightweight moisturizer. Anything more is performance art.

4. Should I pop my pimples?

Only if you want to audition for the role of "Person With Permanent Scars." Seriously, leave it alone. Popping a zit might feel like an Olympic-level achievement in the moment, but it pushes bacteria deeper into the skin, causes inflammation, and can leave behind marks that last longer than your last relationship.

5. What’s the best treatment for stubborn acne?

It depends. If your acne is mild, over-the-counter retinoids and benzoyl peroxide can help. Moderate to severe cases might need prescription-strength topicals, oral antibiotics, or even Accutane (a miracle drug with a PR problem). Either way, don’t just throw darts at the skincare aisle—see a professional who actually knows what they’re doing.

6. Is Accutane dangerous?

About as dangerous as not reading the fine print. It’s not for everyone, and it comes with a laundry list of potential side effects, but for those suffering from severe, treatment-resistant acne, it can be life-changing. Think of it as the nuclear option—highly effective but requiring careful handling.

7. Can stress cause breakouts?

If stress could manifest physically, every New Yorker would be walking around with a face full of cystic acne. While stress doesn’t directly cause breakouts, it does trigger hormonal responses that can lead to increased oil production. So yes, your boss, your rent, and your existential dread might just be wrecking your skin.

8. What about "natural" acne remedies?

Ah, the great coconut oil conspiracy. Natural isn’t always better—arsenic is natural, too. Some remedies, like tea tree oil, can be mildly effective, but others (looking at you, toothpaste and lemon juice) are more likely to burn your face off than clear your skin. Stick with science; your epidermis will thank you.

9. When should I see a dermatologist?

If you’re breaking out despite trying every legitimate acne treatment, if you have deep, painful cysts, or if your acne is affecting your confidence, come see me. Acne is a medical condition, not a rite of passage, and I have 40 years of experience proving that no one has to suffer through it.


Listen, skin is complicated, and acne doesn’t discriminate. Whether you’re a teenager navigating puberty or an adult wondering why your forehead looks like it’s reliving high school, there’s always a solution. So before you dive into another Reddit skincare thread or let an influencer with a filter tell you what to do, make an appointment. Your skin deserves better.

Aging Skin in NYC: The Battle Between Time and Radiance

Time, that impassive sculptor, etches its handiwork upon our skin with the precision of an artist who never took a day off. The first fine lines emerge not as trespassers but as mere whispers of our laughter, furrows of our contemplation. Then, as the years roll on, those whispers turn into full-blown TED Talks—deep-set wrinkles, sagging skin, age spots—all loudly announcing that gravity is undefeated and sun damage never forgets.

Yet let us not bow before the tyranny of time. For while nature may deal the first hand, science, discipline, and the ministrations of an astute dermatologist allow us to reshuffle the deck.

The Anatomy of Aging: A Tale of Collagen Lost and Battles Fought

Aging skin is a tragic story of betrayal. Collagen—the protein that kept your skin bouncy and smugly resilient—starts packing its bags by your mid-20s, declining by 1% per year. Elastin, the great architect of tight, firm skin, waves the white flag soon after. Hyaluronic acid, once a bottomless fountain of hydration, turns into a dried-up well.

And in New York City, where stress levels rival stock market fluctuations and pollution attacks your face like an overzealous street performer, this whole process happens at double speed. The result? Fine lines become crevices, glow turns to gloom, and you start wondering if that Instagram filter should just be your new face.

But where nature falters, medicine prevails. And where science meets artistry, there stands Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld.

The Master’s Touch: Dr. Gary Rothfeld at 629 Park Ave

Board-certified and battle-tested in the unforgiving arena of aging skin, Dr. Rothfeld has spent four decades perfecting the craft of rejuvenation. Dr Gary restores, replenishes, and redefines what it means to age gracefully—or not at all.

With cutting-edge lasers, state-of-the-art fillers, and proprietary anti-aging protocols, Dr. Rothfeld creates customized solutions for every skin type and concern. His philosophy? Aging should be optional. The only thing worse than wrinkles is pretending they’re some kind of “badge of wisdom.” (Nice try, but nobody’s buying it.)

And for those who prefer to fight the battle from home, fear not—there are weapons for that too.

At-Home Anti-Aging: The Rituals of Rejuvenation

1. The Cleanse: Washing Away the Sins of the Day

A proper cleanser isn’t just soap and water—it’s your first line of defense. Use a hydrating cleanser with ceramides and peptides, gently exfoliating without stripping your skin’s dignity.

2. The Elixirs of Youth: Serums & Retinoids

  • Vitamin C Serum: A morning shot of brightness and an iron-clad defense against pollution. Think of it as your skin’s morning espresso.

  • Retinoids: The gold standard of anti-aging. Increases collagen, smooths wrinkles, and tells your lazy skin cells to get back to work.

3. The Moisturizer: Sealing the Deal

Choose one rich in hyaluronic acid, peptides, and niacinamide. Hydration is key unless you’re actively auditioning for a role as a leather handbag.

4. Sunscreen: The MVP of Skincare

If you do nothing else, do this. SPF 50, broad-spectrum, every single day. The sun is an unforgiving tyrant that never takes a day off. Think of sunscreen as witness protection for your face.

5. Nutrition: The Inside-Out Strategy

Collagen peptides, omega-3s, green tea, and hydration—because no serum on Earth can fix a diet of processed junk and bottomless martinis.

6. Lifestyle: Sleep, Stress, and the Company You Keep

Stress will age you faster than time itself. Quality sleep, mindfulness, and avoiding toxic people (both emotionally and chemically) will shave years off your face.

Final Thoughts: The Poetry of Aging, Rewritten

Aging is inevitable; looking older than your years is a choice. Whether through the expert hands of Dr. Gary Rothfeld at 629 Park Avenue or through a dedicated at-home regimen, the power is in your hands. Shall we surrender to time, or shall we—with science as our sword and expertise as our shield—rewrite the narrative of our skin?

Choose wisely. And if you need reinforcements, you know where to find the maestro.

How to Treat Seborrheic Dermatitis at Home: A Comprehensive Guide for Flake-Free Skin | Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld


Seborrheic dermatitis, a condition that feels like a personal affront to your skin’s integrity, is more than just an irritation—it’s a battle. Flakes on your scalp, a rash creeping across your face, chest, back, or even the groin, the condition can make you feel like your skin is turning against you. But you can fight back—without needing to rush straight to a dermatologist’s office. Follow these steps to manage and even beat seborrheic dermatitis from the comfort of your home. If, however, you’re beyond DIY remedies, give me a call. I’m Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld, and I’ve been treating this for decades. Here’s what you need to know.

Step 1: Wash Your Scalp Every Day

Yes, you heard me right—every single day. It might sound like a surefire way to ruin your hair, but hear me out. The trick is washing your scalp to remove the buildup of oils, dead skin cells, and yeast that create the environment for seborrheic dermatitis to thrive. When you don’t wash regularly, you’re essentially setting up camp for more flakes to emerge, more hair to fall out, and more irritation to creep across your skin.

But here’s the twist: washing your scalp every day might make you lose some hair. I know it sounds counterintuitive, but stick with me. The hair that’s falling out? It was never going to survive the onslaught of flakes. By keeping your scalp clean, you’re opening the door for healthier hair to grow back in its place. Think of it as a "fresh start" for your follicles.

In fact, the most severe cases of seborrheic dermatitis can become nearly unrecognizable when you wash your scalp daily. The buildup dissolves, the flakes vanish, and you’re left with the healthy scalp you’ve always wanted. But neglect it for just a couple of days, and the flakes come back with a vengeance. So, wash away—your scalp (and hair) will thank you for it.

Step 2: Choose Your Shampoo Wisely

Don’t just grab any shampoo off the shelf. If you want to fight seborrheic dermatitis, you need active ingredients like ketoconazole, selenium sulfide, or zinc pyrithione. These compounds are proven to target the yeast responsible for your condition and reduce the inflammation that keeps your skin irritated. Keep it simple: wash your hair with these ingredients consistently, and soon your scalp will start showing signs of relief.

Step 3: Moisturize—But Not Too Much

Now, I get it—you don’t want your scalp to turn into a greasy mess. But here’s the reality: you do need some moisture. It’s all about balance. When your scalp is too dry, it can become cracked and inflamed, setting the stage for even worse flare-ups. When it’s too oily, you risk trapping yeast, which is exactly what you’re trying to avoid. A light, soothing moisturizer—one with aloe vera or oatmeal—is your best bet to help reduce irritation and keep the scalp hydrated.

Step 4: Stop Scratching—Seriously

This might be the hardest step of all, but it’s the most important: stop scratching. I know, I know. That itch? It feels like it’s crawling under your skin, but scratching only makes things worse. Each time you scratch, you’re damaging the skin, making it more prone to infection. You’re also pulling at hair follicles, which leads to more hair loss. So, take a deep breath, grab a cold compress, and resist the urge.

Your scalp is like the soil in your garden: if you disturb it too much, nothing will grow. So, keep the scratching to a minimum and let your scalp heal.

Step 5: Adjust Your Diet

Your skin is a reflection of what you put inside your body. If you’re feeding it a diet high in sugars, processed foods, or alcohol, you’re only feeding the yeast that causes seborrheic dermatitis. Instead, opt for a diet rich in healthy fats, like avocado, olive oil, and fatty fish such as salmon. These fats reduce inflammation and keep your skin and scalp healthier. A healthy body equals a healthy scalp—it’s that simple.

Step 6: When It’s Time to See a Professional

Now, let’s face facts: while these home remedies can go a long way, there comes a point when professional intervention is necessary. If you’ve followed these steps and you’re still stuck in the cycle of flakes, hair loss, and irritation, then I’m here to help. I’m Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld, and I’ve been practicing dermatology and cosmetic surgery for over four decades. I’ve worked with thousands of patients, and I’ve seen it all. My office is located at 629 Park Avenue in New York City, and I specialize in advanced treatments for skin conditions, including seborrheic dermatitis. I can work with you to create a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. Whether it’s topical treatments, laser therapy, or other options, we can tackle your seborrheic dermatitis head-on.

Remember, you don’t have to live with the flakes or the irritation. Take control of your scalp, your skin, and your confidence. And if you need me, I’m just a phone call away. Call 212-644-4484 to schedule a consultation, or stop by my office at 629 Park Ave.


With over four decades of experience as a board-certified dermatologist, cosmetic dermatologist, and cosmetic surgeon, I, Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld, have seen the effects of seborrheic dermatitis on my patients—and I’ve helped them recover their healthy, flake-free skin. I’m also an Olympian swimmer, currently competing in the Senior Olympics for the metric mile, so I understand the importance of both skin and health. Let me guide you through the process to make sure you’re getting the results you deserve.

Take control of your scalp today—before the flakes take control of you.
