As a young woman, Dr. Kikam experienced firsthand the frustrations of finding a dermatologist competent in caring for the unique needs of skin of color. A firm believer that skin health forms a huge part of our identity and formation of self-worth, Dr. Kikam has created solutions like Brown Skin Derm™ and Skinclusive Dermatology™ for those like her who feel unseen, unheard and left out of the skincare world.
At the beginning of her residency, she launched Brown Skin Derm via social media to create more access to evidence-based dermatology insights and provide a platform that welcomes
candid, informative conversations. Over the years, she’s amassed an extensive and diverse following and has become a highly sought-out expert and trusted voice on melanin-rich skincare, conditions, and therapies.
