Professional Affiliations
Pure Dermatology

Dr. Kate Zibilich Holcomb founded Pure Dermatology in 2016 based on the idea of using safe and effective treatments to help patients maintain their pure skin health and beauty. She strives to make patients continue to look like their “pure selves” and not unnatural or overdone. Her unique approach takes into account the patient’s own concerns while considering the whole face and skin and how to maintain balance and not treat the face in parts. She combines the use of injectables, lasers, medical grade skincare, and skin treatments to improve on each patient’s natural and pure beauty.
