I’m Dr. Fatima Moosa, a specialist dermatologist and the proud founder of The Derm Factor. Dermatology is more than my profession—it’s my passion. I have a particular love for working with skin of colour, embracing its unique beauty and complexities.
My journey began with my undergraduate training at the University of the Free State, followed by specialising in Dermatology, obtaining my FCDerm and Masters in Medicine (MMed) in Dermatology in 2021.
During my training, I was honoured to receive the prestigious Strauss and Katz scholarship in 2019, which allowed me to attend the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) meeting. That same year, I presented at the annual South African Dermatology Congress (SADS) and was awarded first place for Best Registrar Presentation.
For me, dermatology is like solving a fascinating puzzle—understanding each piece and how it fits together to unlock the best outcomes for my patients. Beyond patient care, I’m passionate about educating others on skin health and empowering people with the knowledge they need to feel confident in their skin.
At The Derm Factor, my goal is to combine expertise, empathy, and innovation to provide personalised care and champion the beauty of all skin types.
