Barton Sterling, MD

Dr. Sterling is truly in a league of his own. His reputation for advanced cosmetic work is absolutely well-deserved—especially when it comes to his expertise in phenol-croton oil chemical peels. I had been struggling with deep wrinkles and aging skin, and after extensive research, I decided to trust Dr. Sterling with a phenol croton oil chemical peel. To say the results are beyond amazing would be an understatement. My skin has been completely transformed—smooth, tight, no wrinkles - dramatically more youthful. I genuinely feel like I’ve turned the clock back 10+ years, and knowing these results will last for a decade or more makes it even more incredible. What impressed me just as much as the results was the experience itself. Dr. Sterling took exceptional care to ensure I felt no pain during the procedure, which was something I had been nervous about going in. His precision, confidence, and calm demeanor immediately put me at ease. It’s clear he has mastered his craft at the highest level. His staff deserves equal praise—professional, kind, and incredibly responsive. Every question I had throughout the process was answered thoroughly and promptly, and I always felt supported during recovery. That level of attentiveness made a huge difference. Dr. Sterling’s talent is nothing short of extraordinary. He combines artistry with medical expertise in a way that very few practitioners can. If you are considering any form of cosmetic dermatology—especially a deep chemical peel—you simply won’t find better. I couldn’t be happier with my results and would recommend him without hesitation.

Dr.Sterling and staff were wonderful!! Very knowledgeable and compassionate! They were very clear on explaining the chemical peel process and recovery. My skin looks phenomenal! I'm 53, but feel and definitely look at least a decade younger!! Highly recommend Dr.Sterling!!!!

I recently had a chemical peel done by Dr. Sterling. I’m still in the healing stage but am so pleased with the results. Dr. Sterling is very thorough, caring, low-key and professional. He genuinely takes pride in what he does and the outcome of his patients’ results. He has an amazing office staff who are very friendly and knowledgeable. They were extremely helpful with any questions or concerns I had. Thank you Dr. Sterling for turning back time and bringing back my youthful glow!

I am so happy I had this procedure with Doctor Sterling. First I will say the procedure itself is intense but Doctor Sterling and everyone there are the best. I honestly can't say enough about them all. Everything was explained to me so I knew what to expect and I was made comfortable throughout the whole procedure. I was most concerned with my under eye wrinkles and around the mouth lines and I am amazed at the results. I have done two laser treatments with other doctors with no results in the past..I did a lot of research on the peel and Doctor Sterling and it paid off because I couldn't be happier.

I can give Dr Sterling 5 stars with confidence. From my first visit to my last, he and his staff were personable & knowledgeable, and readily available to answer questions in the days post procedure. I had many questions & some anxiety about a chemical peek as I had never had a facial procedure, but the professionalism, knowledge, & concern for my comfort soon put me at ease. I was thrilled with the results. I have already recommended him.

I am so happy with my experience and results with every visit . Excellent professional with a human and pleasant touch , accessible and responsive.Happier than ever with Dr. Sterling , highly recommended !!!!!!

I searched dermatologist in my area, and come upon one 15 mins from me. He just happened to be the best at this procedure. His website stated “Dr. Sterling was selected to lecture on his expertise on Chemical Peels and Skin Rejuvenation to other dermatologists at the American Academy of Dermatology 2019, 2018 and 2016 meetings in San Diego and Washington D.C. and the International Peel Society 2019 and 2017 meetings”.Along with Before & after photos. Those were AMAZING! I made an appt ASAP and had my consult. My skin was very damaged from years of sun bathing and smoking (I’ve quit!) On a scale of (wrinkles, brown spots and a bit crepeing) 1-10 I was a 7. I woke up every morning disliking my skin for years so I was excited to do this for me! I will post weekly photos. My procedure was about 90+ minutes. It was tough to say the least! I had no clue how tough it would be. You have to mentally prepare yourself for sure. But I knew the outcome would be SO worth the pain! The recovery the first 48 hours wasn’t easy either. Especially when you have to wash (shower) your face 3X a day.

I went to Dr Sterling for an unpleasant skin condition - incorrectly diagnosed by my prior derm of 30+ years. His diagnosis and treatment set me on the right path immediately!! While in the office I saw photos and inquired on a chemical peel and potential results for my sun damaged Irish skin. I am extremely pleased with the results and the fact the the office is extremely accommodating and friendly!!

I had a chemical peel done by Dr. Sterling. I'm so glad I picked him for this procedure. He answered all my questions and the end results are amazing. It did take a bit longer to heal than I expected, but now that its done I'm so glad I did it. It took years off my appearance. Strangers now comment on my skin. Dr Sterling was accurate with his timeframe for healing and the girls in his office are lovely. I highly recommend him.

My husband had gone to see Dr. Sterling for a growth on his ear lobe & when he came home he told me what a beautiful complexion his nurse had & told me to go with him the next time he had an appointment, .I was always looking at these dark spots on my face & my skin was becoming more & more wrinkled. I did go with my husband & spoke to Dr. Sterling about my problem & he suggested a chemical peel. I spoke to Dr. Sterling nurse & she said Dr.Sterling had done a peel on her a few years ago & her skin was beautiful ( This was the best thing I have ever done for myself) the treatment was not bad at all, Dr Sterling has made such a difference in the way I look & feel. Dr.Sterling has such a warm & caring way, & he has a wonderful staff that are the same way.I would suggest anyone who is thinking about having any work done by a dermatologist to go & see Dr.Sterling. He would be the only Dr. I would go to.
