Dermatology in Connecticut.

Company statements checked between September 13, 2026 and September 15, 2026: 2 covered companies — MDLIVE and Ro — advertise online dermatology services to patients in Connecticut. Confirm eligibility and total charges with the provider.

Selected online dermatology access advertised for Connecticut: a photo-based case review offered anywhere in the United States, and one prescription and compounded skin and hair plan read from a published state exception list.

For patients in Connecticut. These are advertised online services, not verified local offices, appointment slots or prescription guarantees.

One of Connecticut’s two dermatology rows is Ro’s prescription and compounded hair and skin plan, and the first thing to know about it is that no price is attached. Ro’s dermatology page advertises a $20 discount on a first order of a specific size, but establishes no service price; the company’s body membership is a distinct product with its own charge. Compare that with the other shapes of online dermatology in the national guide, where a photo review or a live appointment is billed as a visit rather than as a recurring product plan.

Connecticut appears here because of what Ro’s help-center article Where is Ro Available? leaves out. The article says the company is licensed to serve members in all 50 states and Washington D.C., then lists the states where particular treatments are unavailable because telemedicine laws limit the selection. Connecticut is not listed for Skin Care, Women’s Hair Loss or the Ro 3-in-1 Topical Spray. This page reads the state as covered from the complement of that list, not from any dermatology-specific statement, and the article’s own timestamp says it was last revised on August 20, 2025, so confirm the current list before relying on it. Ro also states that its named hair solution is a compounded drug that is not FDA-approved, alongside the prescription and over-the-counter items in the same catalogue.

The other row is billed as a case

MDLIVE’s dermatology row is the counterpart to the point above about price. It is not a recurring product plan: one case is opened at a time, covering one skin, hair or nail concern, with a history and photographs submitted instead of a live appointment being booked. Separate concerns are separate cases, and the figures in the row are per case.

Connecticut is covered by a general statement, not a local one. The company’s frequently asked questions answer “Where is MDLIVE available?” with “MDLIVE is available anywhere in the United States* and Puerto Rico”, tag that answer to the dermatology service among others, and footnote the asterisk with the qualification that availability of phone visits varies in accordance with state regulations. It does not establish which clinicians are available in Connecticut, what a given reader would pay, or that any treatment or prescription will be provided.

The national guide carries more companies than this page does. Whether a company appears here depends on what its maintained evidence does or does not say about Connecticut for this service, a test of the evidence rather than of availability. Absence from this page is not a finding that a company is unavailable in Connecticut.

This page does not identify a Ro office in Connecticut, does not confirm that any particular product can be prescribed or shipped there, and does not say a treatment suits any condition.

Selected providers

Which providers serve Connecticut?

2 companies with published profiles and service-specific source records. Listed alphabetically, not ranked. This is selected coverage—not every provider in the market.

Formats describe the program, not a guaranteed first-visit option in every state. A messaging or questionnaire option does not promise an initial evaluation without a live appointment. Read each provider’s service and state access notes.

MDLIVE

Asynchronous photo-based review of one skin, hair or nail concern at a time, with a history and photographs submitted instead of a live appointment

Official website ↗
  • Messaging or questionnaire

A dermatologist reviews the submitted case. MDLIVE says a response arrives within 72 hours and usually within 24, which is a company-reported turnaround rather than a guarantee.

Access channel: Direct to consumer, Employer, Health plan

Cash pay · Insurance · Employer or plan benefit

Dermatology is advertised at $0 to $95 per case. The $0 end depends on insurance or benefit eligibility rather than applying to every patient, and people with employer or health-plan access see their applicable charge before booking. The published price table does not quote medication prices.

Connecticut is inside MDLIVE's national answer rather than named by it: the FAQ replies to "Where is MDLIVE available?" with "MDLIVE is available anywhere in the United States* and Puerto Rico" and tags that to dermatology among the company's other services, the asterisk marking a footnote that availability of phone visits varies in accordance with state regulations. Unlike the plan on the other row, this is priced as a case rather than as a subscription, and it is asynchronous, one skin, hair or nail concern at a time. It establishes no clinician, no price for a reader and no prescription.

MDLIVE's FAQ answers "Where is MDLIVE available?" with "MDLIVE is available anywhere in the United States* and Puerto Rico", adding that with its national network of board-certified doctors you can ensure that each doctor available to you is fully licensed to practice medicine in your state. The asterisk marks a footnote saying availability of phone visits varies in accordance with state regulations. That answer is tagged to MDLIVE's dermatology service among others, and a separate FAQ answer says MDLIVE has a vast, nationwide network of board-certified, licensed doctors in all 50 states and Puerto Rico. This records where the dermatology service is offered. It does not establish which clinicians are available where you are, how a given skin concern is reviewed, how soon you receive a response, what you would pay, or that any particular treatment or prescription will be provided.

State evidence checked · State availability source

One concern is reviewed per case, so separate concerns mean separate cases. A prescription is not guaranteed and the service does not prescribe controlled substances. The platform is reported as available throughout the United States and Puerto Rico, but an account does not mean every plan covers this service. Company-reported.

Ro

Prescription and compounded hair and skin treatments delivered on an ongoing plan

Official website ↗
  • Messaging or questionnaire

An online visit precedes treatment, with the company describing dermatologist-backed offerings rather than a booked appointment with a named dermatologist.

Access channel: Direct to consumer

Cash pay

No service price is established on the page. It advertises a $20 discount on a first order of a specific size, and the company's separate body membership is a distinct product with its own charge.

Connecticut is not on Ro's published exception list for its Skin Care, Women's Hair Loss and 3-in-1 Topical Spray offerings, so the state is read as covered from the complement of that list rather than from a dermatology-specific statement. The list carries the company's own August 20, 2025 revision date and says nothing about any particular treatment, clinician, eligibility or approval, so confirm the current list before relying on it.

Ro's help-center article "Where is Ro Available?" states that "Ro is licensed to provide service to members in all 50 states and Washington D.C." and then lists, by state, "the states and treatments that are unavailable in those states" because "the selection of our offerings is limited due to telemedicine laws". Skin Care is listed as unavailable in Alabama, Arkansas, the District of Columbia, Mississippi and Nebraska; Women's Hair Loss is additionally listed as unavailable in Hawaii, Louisiana and South Dakota; and the Ro 3-in-1 Topical Spray is listed as unavailable in the same five jurisdictions as Skin Care. The states enumerated here are those where none of those hair or skin entries is listed as unavailable, read as the complement of the company's own exception list rather than from a dermatology-specific statement. The article's own timestamp says it was last revised on August 20, 2025 and it still lists Ro Body compounded semaglutide entries, so confirm the current list before relying on it. It does not establish that any particular product, compounded or otherwise, is offered in a given state, that a patient is eligible, or that an online visit will result in a prescription.

The company states that its named hair solution is a compounded drug that is not FDA-approved, and labels compounded products as such alongside prescription and over-the-counter items in the same catalogue. Company-reported.

How companies enter this list

Each selected company has a published profile, a maintained service row and a separately reviewed match to current evidence for this state. A general national footprint is insufficient. The list is selective; an omitted provider is not necessarily unavailable. Inclusion does not establish clinical suitability, state licensure or a currently available appointment.

Smaller and larger providers use the same source requirements and alphabetical ordering. Visit each profile for company history and wider context, or suggest another provider.
