Dr. Rebecca Small, MD

Dr. Rebecca Small brings an Ivy League medical background to her Capitola practice, RSMD Medical Aesthetics, where she serves Santa Cruz County patients seeking scientifically grounded, natural-looking cosmetic results. A Harvard-educated physician and UCSF Clinical Professor who has authored professional materials on botulinum toxin procedures, Dr. Small built her practice around three core principles: proprietary safety protocols, genuine patient education and transparency, and a focus on long-term aesthetic outcomes rather than quick fixes. Her philosophy of pairing scientific precision with artistic vision is reflected in her signature RSMD Liquid Lift, a customized combination of injectables designed to restore volume and contour without surgery. Beyond her injectable and filler work, the practice offers a comprehensive menu of skin treatments, including IPL photofacials, RF microneedling, MicroLaser facials, and chemical peels, along with regenerative options like PRP facial rejuvenation and red light therapy. Hair-focused patients can access laser hair removal, PRP hair restoration, and HydraFacial Keravive scalp treatments. For added convenience, RSMD also offers mobile aesthetic services, bringing physician-level care directly to patients throughout the Capitola and greater Santa Cruz area.
