Hi. Beautiful

I am Dr. Nikoleta!

A Board-Certified Dermatologist, podcast host, best-selling author, nationally recognized skin, hair, and nails expert, passionate momma in medicine, and wife to my best friend (who also happens to be a dermatologist)!

I light up helping women step into their most confident, healthy, and supported versions of themselves.

GET YOUR Glow UP!

I’M Dr. NIKOLETA BRANKOV, MD

Over the last decade, I’ve devoted my life to helping incredible women struggling with their skin remove the question marks, create a plan of action toward more radiant and healthy skin, and fall in love with the skin they’re in!

Anyone who knows me knows that I’m obsessed with all things dermatology, but for me, dermatology is so much more than science. I’m honored to support and empower so many amazing women throughout their skincare journey.

As a child of two immigrant parents from former Yugoslavia, I watched my family work hard to create opportunity through their unrelenting work ethic or as I like to call it, “The Immigrant Hustle.” I was hungry to take advantage of the opportunity they worked so hard to provide and forge my own path. I found that path when I fell in love with medicine.

I knew to be the healthy doctor I was so passionate about becoming, I had to do the internal work too.

Like most things worth doing, the journey to become a physician wasn’t always easy.

With such a grueling course load, studying, studying, and re‑studying for the MCAT, and putting everything I had into my future career on paper, it looked like I was doing all the “right things,” but internally I was losing sight of myself and why I wanted to become a doctor in the first place. I knew to be the healthy doctor I was so passionate about becoming, I had to do the internal work too.

So I jumped headfirst into personal development, health, and wellness so I could not only become a successful doctor, but also a well rounded person. The breakthrough was unbelievable! I felt like a fire was lit under me, and I was finally ready to pursue my path towards dermatology, while honoring my authentic self.

To make an impact, I knew I needed to practice what I preach and unlock my own confidence in my skin and myself.

Once I decided to take a step back and truly focus on the mind, body, and skin connection in myself, I saw all the pieces fall into place.

Within the last decade I committed myself to my dream of becoming a dermatologist. I graduated from Loma Linda University School of Medicine, completed an internal medicine internship and 3-year dermatology residency, actively engaged in dermatology research, was published in many peer-reviewed articles, started working with real patients and clients, and officially passed my American Board of Dermatology Board-Certification exam.

Today, I am the Creator and Founder of the Healthy Skin Blueprint, a Board-Certified Dermatologist, skincare thought-leader, podcast host, best-selling author, and nationally recognized skin, hair, and nails expert.

There’s nothing more purposeful than helping women integrate their inner and outer beauty to feel like the most confident, empowered, and brilliant version of themselves.

I’ve helped thousands of women break free from their past skin struggles, learn how to care for their skin with confidence, and truly start loving the skin they’re in.

I WANT THE SAME FOR YOU.
