About Dr. Cynthia Bailey, Sebastopol, CA dermatologist and skin care expert
Imagine if you had a close sister who was a dermatologist and skin care geek.
You could ask her the most embarrassing question like, "Why is my skin scaly"
"How can I fix my zits" or "What can I do about my rosacea?" And she would tell
you what to do in a way that didn't make you feel embarrassed. Or weird.
That's how my patients describe me - like a trusted sister. My name is Dr.
Cynthia Bailey, I'm glad you've found me - and I'm ready to help you find your
best and most healthy skin.

I've practiced dermatology in California for over 24 years and currently
practice in my Sebastopol, CA dermatology office. I had acne as a teen, and
as a fair-skinned, previously tanning-addicted native Californian, I started
noticing wrinkles and sun damage in my mid 20s (like so many of us).
Back then, I was in my dermatology residency at the University of California, San
Diego - it was the time when Retin A, gycolic acid and broad spectrum sunscreen
were just beginning to get attention as the first effective products for
meaningful skin rejuvenation.
I paid attention.
Soon after, I was on the full-time clinical teaching faculty at University of
California San Diego Medical School. I also conducted laboratory research on
the effect of sunlight on skin disease. Deciding to raise my young family in
the 'country' I moved to the Northern California wine country and opened my
Sebastopol, CA general and surgical dermatology practice in 1991 with an
emphasis on skin cancer and healthy skin care.
Every skin care product
I offer
has been carefully tested on myself, my family and my patients over the years.
I offer a very small line of affordable "must-have" products that solve problems
like rosacea or acne, or that help rejuvenate the skin, and they get real
results. If it doesn't work, I don't offer it. It's as simple as that.
For me, being a dermatologist is just plain fun - and I feel blessed that
I get to do what I love. I have patients of all ages and both genders who
bring me a wide range of skin problems that I can fix. My patients share
inner frailties regarding their body image and consider me a 'safe place'
to ask for help. I get to neaten up the part of them everyone sees, improving
their appearance in our appearance-driven world. Plus, I get to write about
my passion on my skin care blog and
talk about it in magazines, newspapers and other media.
I learn a lot about life from being included in a small part of my patients'
lives - and yours, too. Thank you for the opportunity.

What My Patients Say
"People from everywhere know Dr. Bailey and many would like to get into her practice but her practice has been full for years. She's known as the dermatologist you can't get into unless you have friends or family already in the practice who can ask her for you.
RG 2010
"We like Dr. Bailey! We live over 2000 miles away but there just isn't a dermatologist like her there so we keep coming back to Sebastopol and that's the bottom line. She's so real."
SG & DG 8/09
"Dr. Bailey found a melanoma on my leg and I still don't know how she figured out it was bad when my legs are covered with freckles. I didn't even come in for something on my legs, she just found it. I feel like she saved my life."
CM 2011
Every time I tell someone about the surgery on my face they look and they can't find the scar. I say, hey man, I have a specialist, and she knows what she is doing!"
FW 9/09
"My friend who used to come here and moved out of state said, 'I just can't find a dermatologist here like Dr. Bailey.'"
