Improving Access to Dermatological Care in Under-Privileged Malaysian Communities

The Malaysian Skin Foundation received RM100,000 raised through the Dermakan Derma Care campaign by La Roche-Posay.

Many Malaysians, especially those in rural and lower-income areas, continue to face limited access to essential dermatological care.
To help address this gap, Malaysian Skin Foundation, La Roche-Posay and Watsons Malaysia, collaborated in a nationwide initiative aimed at making skin health support more accessible to communities in need.

The program offers:
– Free on-site skin consultations with our dermatologists.
– Personalized care plans and educational support for managing common skin conditions.
– Distribution of essential skincare products such as soaps and sunscreens to provide better care for the skin.

Outreach activities were held in Setapak, Sungai Buloh, and Gombak, led by consultant dermatologists Dato’ Dr Noor Zalmy Azizan and Dr Nur Syazwin Sies.
Actress and skincare advocate Hannah Delisha has lent her voice to the initiative, helping to raise awareness and encourage Malaysians to prioritize skin health.
RM2 from each eligible skincare product sold at Watsons Malaysia from 1st March to 30th April 2025 was donated to the Malaysian Skin Foundation (MSF). These funds will support the MSF Patient Assistance Programme (PAP) and help expand training opportunities for our dermatologists.

This collaboration brings together clinical expertise, outreach, and community engagement to ensure more Malaysians have the knowledge and resources to care for their skin.
