Dr. Walter Joseph III
Board-certified plastic surgeon. Behavioral neuroscientist by training. The dual credential that lets BONJIL operate in a category no other skincare brand can.
“Most skincare treats what you can see. We treat what you cannot. Chronic stress quietly breaks down collagen and weakens the barrier long before it shows. The Ritual is the intervention.”
BONJIL Chief Medical Advisor Plastic Surgeon & Behavioral Neuroscientist
The combination that makes BONJIL possible. Behavioral neuroscience trained him to understand the cortisol pathway. Plastic surgery trained him to understand the skin. Almost no other practicing physician is credentialed in both.
Behavioral Neuroscience
The discipline that studies how the nervous system produces behavior, and how behavior modulates the nervous system. The foundation for everything BONJIL claims about the cortisol-skin axis.
Plastic Surgery
Residency at the #1-ranked U.S. program; research fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering. The discipline that has spent the most time studying the skin as a clinical organ.
