Who we are

This website was built on behalf of Peter J. Damico, MD, PA. Our website address is https://www.skincarefortworth.com.

Dr. Damico is a Board Certified Family Practice physician in Fort Worth, Texas specializing in Medical Facial Aesthetics.

Purpose of the Site

The purpose of this website is to help new and returning patients alike to learn more about their cosmetic treatment options at Skin Care Fort Worth. All treatments discussed on this website are meant to be provided by professionals and are not meant to be attempted by anyone else. The content is meant to be entertaining and is not meant to be instructional in nature.

Notice Regarding Medical Services

IF YOU ARE AN ACTIVE MEDICAL PATIENT: Dr. Damico’s medical patients should not send medical requests through the contact form on this website. The requests made through this website are not monitored for any medical practice purposes. Dr. Damico’s medical patients must communicate with office staff by calling (817)738-9268. You are advised to call 911 in the event of an emergency. Never send an email in an emergency situation.

EXISTING AND POTENTIAL AESTHETIC PATIENTS: Dr. Damico has been practicing Medical Aesthetics since 2005, and we welcome new patients every day for aesthetic procedures such as Botox® and fillers. If you are an aesthetic patient experiencing any adverse reactions from a treatment received at our office, you are advised to call Dr. Damico’s office immediately at (817)738-9268 any day, any time. In the unlikely event the answering service is unable to reach Dr. Damico outside of business hours, we advise you to go to an emergency room or call 911 if necessary. Never send an email or text in an emergency situation.

While Dr. Damico is a currently practicing Family Practice doctor, his medical practice (separate from his growing aesthetics practice) is not accepting new patients. By continuing to use this website, and further, if any person sends a contact request for a medical issue, you agree that these actions do not place you under Dr. Damico’s medical supervision and you have not established any rights to continuance of care. You understand and agree that Peter J. Damico, MD PA will have no liability or responsibility for any personal, medical or bodily damages or harm that result from the improper use of our website, its information or its services, which includes but is not limited to making medical requests (emergency or otherwise) over email communications.

Emails from this website are directed to a member of the office staff who is not a licensed medical professional. They are not directed to or viewed personally by Peter J. Damico, MD.
