About

Dr. Elizabeth K. Hale is a board-certified dermatologic surgeon practicing in New York, New York. She specializes in dermatologic surgery, cosmetic dermatology, and Mohs micrographic surgery for skin cancer treatment. Dr. Hale performs biopsies on patients daily and emphasizes that early detection is key for melanoma. She considers an annual skin check non-negotiable and advises patients to see a dermatologist promptly for any new, changing, or suspicious moles. For daily skincare, Dr. Hale highlights broad-spectrum SPF and a retinoid as the two ingredients with the strongest evidence for protecting and maintaining collagen, noting that other ingredients are optional. She believes the most effective skincare routine is the one a patient will consistently follow, recommending starting with SPF and a retinoid and building from there. Dr. Hale also addresses conditions like crepey skin, adult acne, and hair thinning, recognizing them as hormonal and addressable. She will also begin her term as alumni president for the NYU Grossman School of Medicine, a role she considers a true honor and privilege.

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Elizabeth K. Hale

Sourced directly from Dr. Elizabeth K. Hale's social posts and replies.

When does collagen loss begin and what accelerates it?
Collagen loss begins as early as your thirties and is significantly accelerated by the hormonal changes of perimenopause and menopause.

What are the most effective skincare ingredients for collagen protection?
Broad-spectrum SPF used daily and a retinoid are the two ingredients with the strongest evidence for protecting and maintaining collagen. All other skincare ingredients are optional.
Source →
Are crepey skin, adult acne, and hair thinning treatable?
Crepey skin, adult acne, and hair thinning are often hormonal, and they are addressable conditions.
Source →
How does sun exposure affect moles, and what is melanoma?
Moles can change with sun exposure, and some can even become malignant melanoma, which is the most serious form of skin cancer. Melanoma can arise 'de novo' on normal skin or in a pre-existing mole.
Source →
Is melanoma curable, and where is it commonly found?
When detected early, melanoma is almost always curable. It is very common on the thighs in women, and on the upper back and chest in men. However, melanoma can occur anywhere in both genders and in all skin types.
Source →
When should I see a dermatologist about a mole, and why are annual skin checks important?
See a dermatologist right away if you notice a mole that is new, changing, or suspicious. Early detection is key for melanoma. An annual skin check is essential, as non-melanoma skin cancers are the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the US, with more cases than breast, lung, and colon cancers combined.
Source →
Why is daily SPF important?
It is important to wear broad-spectrum SPF daily, as UVA rays penetrate clouds and windows year-round. Not wearing sunscreen every day will lead to faster skin aging.
Source →
What is the most effective skincare routine?
The most effective skincare routine is the one an individual will consistently follow. It should begin with broad-spectrum SPF and a topical retinoid, and additional steps can be built from there.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$170

Payments

1

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Elizabeth K. Hale received $170 across 1 payment in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was Galderma Laboratories, L.P..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
