How Zest works

1. Establish care for unlimited access

Your experience begins with a comprehensive 30-minute virtual visit. During this appointment, your clinician reviews your medical history, understands your goals, and assesses how well your condition is controlled.

2. A Care Plan That Evolves with you

Next, your clinician walks you through what your skin needs right now and what to expect moving forward. If you’re in remission, we’ll talk about how Zest has helped members safely reduce their medication dose by more than 60% over a year while staying controlled—and what a right-sized plan could look like for you. If your condition isn’t well controlled, we’ll outline the steps to get you there; most Zest members report meaningful improvements in their quality of life within just 30 days.

3. Continuous Support Between Visits

You’re never on your own with Zest. Whether you need help adjusting your medication, managing symptoms, or understanding what’s normal, we’re here. Message your care team anytime and upload photos during flares for quick, personalized guidance. Zest stays connected with you throughout your journey—not just at scheduled visits—so you always have expert support at your fingertips.

Through Zest, I learned that I don’t have to be on a biologic. I’m able to get just as great results without it.

What skin conditions does Zest treat?

Zest Health focuses exclusively on psoriasis and eczema — two of the most common and complex chronic inflammatory skin conditions. We offer deep expertise and tailor treatment plans to your unique symptoms, history, and lifestyle. Treatment plans go beyond symptom relief to identify and address the underlying causes and triggers of flares.

What makes Zest Health different from a traditional dermatologist?

Zest Health is built for fast, easy, and high-touch clinical access. Your first visit is 30 minutes, so your clinician can learn about you, your skin history, and your goals. No two treatment plans look the same. There are no long waits, no waiting rooms, and no surprise bills.

Appointments & Access

How quickly can I get an appointment, and do I need a referral?

No referrals needed. Most patients get a visit within a few days, and many are seen the next day.

How are virtual visits conducted?

Zest virtual visits are conducted on the Zoom platform. Appointment links are shared with members before their appointment time. 

What technology do I need for virtual appointments?

All you need is a computer, smartphone, or tablet that can connect to the internet and a stable internet connection.

Is virtual care effective for dermatology?

Yes. Virtual care works well for psoriasis and eczema because so much of the disease shows on your skin. Clear photos and video give your care team what they need to treat you. You also get faster visits, easier follow-ups, and closer tracking of your skin over time. All visits happen over video, from wherever you have internet.

Cost & Insurance

How much does Zest Health cost?

$0. Zest Health is a no-cost benefit offered to you through your health insurance or employer plan. You may still pay a normal copay or coinsurance for prescriptions, depending on your pharmacy benefit. Your clinician works with you to keep your treatment affordable.

Treatment & Medications

What kinds of medications and treatments does Zest offer?

Zest Health can prescribe the full range of psoriasis and eczema medications like creams, moisturizers, pills, or biologic injections for more serious conditions. Your clinician builds a plan around your needs to calm irritation and reduce flares over time.

Can I get a prescription through Zest Health, and how do refills work?

Yes. Zest Health will write, refill, and manage your dermatology medications. You can request refills on the Zest portal any time. Refills are processed and sent to the pharmacy within 24–48 hours.

What should I do if I have a flare?

Tell us by messaging your care team through your Zest portal. They review your symptoms and can recommend next steps. This may include a medication change, self-care tips, or a visit that same week.

When will I see results from treatment?

This depends on how severe your condition is and your treatment plan. Many patients notice improvement after one or two visits. Your clinician tracks your progress and adjusts your plan to help your skin keep getting better.

Care Team & Support

Who is on my care team?

Your care team includes board-certified dermatologists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and care coordinators who specialize in psoriasis and eczema. Each person is trained to support patients with chronic skin conditions through personal, evidence-based care.

Can I use Zest if I already have a dermatologist?

Yes. Zest Health can be your main source for dermatology care, or it can work alongside your current dermatologist. Use Zest for second opinions, treatment reviews, or support between your in-person visits.
