In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with DRMTLGY co-founders Scott Futterman and Samuel Raoof for a conversation that cuts through one of the beauty industry’s biggest misconceptions: that great skincare is defined by ingredient lists alone. In a market flooded with trending actives, viral products, and marketing claims, they offer a rare look at what actually determines whether a product performs.  The story begins long before DRMTLGY entered the consumer market. Raised around dermatology, Samuel developed a deep appreciation for skin science and eventually recognized a gap in physician-dispensed skincare. Rather than relying on existing manufacturers, he built his own facility to create formulations that met the standards dermatologists were seeking. Years later, Scott saw an opportunity to make those same products more accessible, helping transform DRMTLGY into one of the most recognized science-driven skincare brands today.
