Negative keywords for dermatologists
Dermatology search is crowded with skincare shoppers comparing serums, esthetician students, pimple-popping video fans and people diagnosing a rash from photos. This list blocks the product and self-diagnosis traffic and keeps the patient booking a skin check.
Updated
Before you paste: what NOT to block
Appointment, cost and coverage queries convert - keep these out of the list:
- dermatologist near me accepting new patients
- mole removal cost
- skin cancer screening near me
- acne scar treatment price
- same day dermatologist appointment
- dermatologist that takes medicaid
Every list on this page is a starting point, not a decree. Scan it against your own offer before applying — one business's junk click is another's best lead.

View listFrequently asked questions
Should dermatologists block skincare brand names?
Block the retail brands and routine queries - a CeraVe or The Ordinary searcher is buying a bottle, not booking a visit. But never block prescription-only names like tretinoin, isotretinoin or Accutane: that searcher needs a prescriber, and a dermatologist is exactly who they have to see to get it.
Do medical and cosmetic dermatology need different negatives?
Yes. A medical-only practice that does not inject can safely block "botox", "filler" and "lip injections". A cosmetic practice must not - and it should go further than this list on product terms, because its patients search in retail language. Add those service words only after confirming which side of the practice the campaign actually sells.
These are generic industry negatives - safe in most accounts of this kind, but not tuned to yours. Inside Keyword Ninja, the Smart Blocklist cross-checks this exact catalog against your real search terms and shows the wasted spend before you block a single word.
