About

Dr. Beckman

James S. Beckman, M.D. is a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon, a life member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, a biomedical/biochemical researcher and the founder and CEO of Therapon Skin Health®. He obtained his medical degree from the University of Arkansas Medical School in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1970, followed by a general surgery residency at the University of Arkansas Medical Center (1971-1975) and a plastic surgery residency at the University of Tennessee (1975-1977). Dr. Beckman set up his private practice, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, in 1977 and practiced there for 24 years.

While treating severely burned patients, Dr. Beckman looked to improve the quality of life for his patients by finding solutions for restoring full function and mobility. Finding nothing on the market that would provide true medical improvement for his patients, Dr. Beckman developed a unique systematic method for improving skin health. This development led to Theraderm Clinical Skin Care products and ultimately a cutting edge and innovative company, Therapon Skin Health.
