I wish someone would look at me the way Dr. Maxfield looks at Dr. Shah

I feel like no one knew about hypochlorous until Dr. Dray started talking about it a year ago! But it's so helpful!

I remember finding this channel when it was much smaller over a year ago during the Christmas break. Unimaginable growth and all deserved!

Thank you for taking the time to educate us all!! My skin looks amazing thanks to you!! ❤️

Any chance you will talk about laser hair removal? Specifically even at home IPL devices? Having a hard time finding good information and I value your insight so much. Following your page / tips has been the only thing that’s tremendously improved my skin in YEARS. Thank you so much for spending the time sharing what you do!

Hi I discovered this way back at the beginning of the pandemic. I have eczema and the alcohol gels were a nightmare for my hands - the skin was literally aflame and so painful. I researched alternatives as a hand sanitiser and this was game changing for me. I've used it consistently since. My hands are back to normal and despite washing them often aren't nearly as sore or inflamed. I was a Registered nurse for many years until disability so my hands have always been washed a lot, but not using alcohol gels has been incredibly beneficial. I still have to slather creams on them overnight and use moisturiser during the day, but they were so painful with the alcohol gels and that is no longer an issue. I think it's very under rated and was surprised it isn't used more than it is. Best wishes.

I'm an optometrist and I recommend hypochlorous acid daily to my patients with blepharitis, meibomitis, and styes. Great to know it helps with patients with eczema too, since of lot of patients get flare ups on their lids.

I've heard of this ingredient but really didn't know what it was for or how to use it. Thanks for all the info!

I'm a huge fan of hypochlorous acid, I apply it on my underarm to prevent odor when I'm going outside and as a disinfectant, to my hands, because it has ph 5.5. And it's completely safe.

Had no clue about the antioxidant part. So glad I know now!

I just wanted to share another use for hypochlorous acid from personal experience. My mother developed shingles on her eye and face last year. She was in severe pain from it. I happened to have this product on hand and I knew it was safe for the eye area, so I had her try it. It offered a decent amount of relief for her! Afterwards, I researched the product and it’s use for shingles, and sure enough, it is recommended for that! I was so glad I had some and thought to have her try it.

It’s also being used a lot for Ocular rosacea.

Hello doctors!! I would like to see you try more Korean/Japanese skincare. Although they aren't very focused on actives like retinoids, I would like to see your thoughts and recommendations in that category. 💕💕

As someone who's had multiple skin infections over the past year and ezcema I'm definitely giving this a try. Thank you for doing a video on this.

Tower 28 (a beauty/skincare brand) has a great serum version now of hypochlorous acid that has really helped my acne. Also, been using 10% azaleic acid from Paula's Choice. Been a long road w/this acne (and yes, I'm seeing a Derm), but these 2 products I found on my own. Also, love Dr Dray and her "no-nonsense" skin care advice. I have a giant tub of Cerave that I use at night that helps w/the dry skin because of Tretinoin.

I love the animated graphics!!

I love it! Does not sting even on wounds and safe to clean eyes ears ANYTHING Instead of picking try SPRAYING!

I’ve just subscribed to y’all’s channel and have binged like 10 videos. Can I just say, I’m totally in love with y’all. Like omg.

Please, please discuss lasers or in office treatments for melasma and hyperpigmentation?

Another great educational video - class is in for 2022! I feel hopeful - my daughter's adult acne is out of control. I will immediately mention this! Thank You!

Thanks for the info. I don't watch any other derms on YT so it's a new product to me. Will check it out. Also you guys look tired, don't work too hard. You guys are the most hardworking KZfaqrs out there, so if you need a break your loyal subscribers will always be here waiting! Much love and best wishes for 2022!

Holy cow, I only heard about HA after I purchased a wound rinse for my nostril piercing. I was looking for a rinse that was safe to use around the eyes, nose, and mouth. After my sea salt soak and saline rinse, I spray this on as a final defense against infection. I am so glad I came across this solution! I learned so much about the skin! How amazing!

This has already been helpful for a patch of eczema on my ear lobe. I am hoping it will be effective during allergy season when I often get a staph infection around my nostril from the constant wiping with Kleenex.

Tower 28 SOS spray is what I have been loving for my skin when wearing masks. It also contains HOCL

The “hand throw” to introduce the video topic that you both do in almost every video has me WEAK but I love it! And actually look for/wait for it😄…… Along with the awesome and very relevant content of course!😁

Adding some to checkout now!! I'm a nursing student and proud pet mom to dogs and a cat. I don't see why this isn't a bigger and more hyped product but I can see how amazing this can be!!

Had NO idea this was available OTC to anyone. Thought it was only recently being used in medical wound care. You guys rock! Thank you!

Thanks Dr Shah and Dr Maxfield, I use HOCl spray for my underarms plus Panoxyl for washing to get rid of bacteria and to deal with hyperpigmentation. I haven’t worn deodorant or antiperspirant anymore for months now. I still get a bit stinky on the pits sometimes but that’s because it’s time for me to shower haha, but for the most part I don’t have bad body odor anymore!

Doctorly always to the rescue when needed!! can we use this product with topicals faded cream?

Thank you for telling us that it doesn’t work with vitamin C, had no idea and will not mix. I use the tower 21 SOS spray and love it, but will have to try these because the price is much better.

Thank you for the informative video as always! Can you apply it throughout the day on top of sunscreen (if you’re wearing a mask at work for example)?

I love hypochlorous acid and use it in multiple ways. I use it on my husband to help him heal after having some suspicious moles removed. I also spray it directly on my *closed* eyes especially during allergy season when I tend to tear up a lot and my eyes sometimes become crusty. I also have a gallon jug of it in a higher percentage to clean my home with. I use it by first spraying down my quartz countertops and wiping them down then I spray it again and allow it to air dry. The continuous spray bottles are great for this. I no longer have to use chemicals to sanitize my home and that makes me very happy. Both products and the spray bottles are on Amazon.

Like always so appreciate your efforts in educating us.

Thank you for the product recommendations!! The products marketed for the eyes specifically are like $30 for less than an ounce 🙄

Thanks for such an informative and educational video 😀 I hadn't heard of Hypochlorous acid before and will try it for my eczema. Could you make a video on when/what age to start Profhilo and if it's good to do Profhilo while you have skin issues such as hyperpigmentation, eczema etc, or for people with acne as that seems to be common in the population. And can you mix that with injectables.

I actually started a company that patented the HOCL and it's shelf life even when opened is stable 24 months and we have an RX line. I would love to send you some samples if open to compare. I was doing research on the skincare part and ran across your video 💕 I love educating everyone on benefits of products and will be sharing with !y team.

I've been using this since June of last year and it has helped with inflammation and my acne. Thinking back, I didn't break out as much when I used it regularly. I recommend the Briotech Topical Skin Spray. They even have refills so that's convenient and it's affordable too so definitely worth a try!

I randomly bought a “skin and surface sanitizing spray” today and it turned out to be hypochlorous acid. Never heard of it before. Seems very useful!

I use Hypochlorous acid for my eyelids and eyelashes. Helps with my dry eye issues. 👍🏼 I did not know I could use it on eczema. I will be giving it a try. Thank you

omg i’ve been using this forever and definitely have noticed it helps my acne, and allll during the pandemic i sprayed this in my mask and rare got maskne … or covid! *knocks on wood* good to know my hunch was right about this stuff! my friends like it too! we all call it “the pool water” haha ~ good to know about it working against vitamin c and antioxidants! thanks for all the info!

I bought it in the UK from Superdrug in the baby care department for £1.99!!!! I sprayed it on to a new ear piercing and it's fabulous keeping it clean. I use it all the time instead of normal hand sanitizer and it feels just like water. No irritation, no smell, just fresh clean hands. I absolutely love it! Thank you Drs, for your awesome recommendation. The brand is called Vital Baby

Can you record a video specifically for young men. My son is 26 and lives in cold climate. He refuses all skin care! Tried to get him to use tretonin just to prevent genetic predisposition to skin cancer. An easy prevention routine would be great to forward to him! PS, he does go for a full body check yearly when remembers!

Always excellent info!

This was so interesting, thank you! Is this something that would be useful in the treatment of Hidradenitis suppurativa?

I was using the same one Dr. Maxfield mentioned after my second C-section. I lost a lot of weight between kids and in combination with two pregnancies and two C-sections, I have the (extremely embarrassing) belly hang. I was having issues with the skin under it, so that product really helped a lot with irritation and after a long summer day, a slight smell (though my husband thought I was being paranoid about it).

Hey guys, can you discuss hyperpigmentation products that you can recommend? Kojic Acid, Niacinamide, Azelaic, Arbutin. Thanks

But where the eye cream video at... 🤔 lol thanks for all the amazing videos! This channel is everything 👏

This Nurse gives a big thumbs up 👍 for this video!!! Very well done!! They now sell small glass size usb hypochlorous acid maker for @ $14… great for plants & gardens, cleaning tubers prior to storage, basic disinfectant. A bottle for the face and hands is a must!

Very useful and informative video! However, I was wondering if there are any studies regarding its effect on healthy microbiome. It's mentioned that it basically kills the bad bacteria, but what about the good one? And how strong the caused oxidative stress on the skin, is it less than from BP?

Can we have a Q&A on introducing acids to your skin care routine especially if you’re new at it

Really helpful video!! How many hours should I wait until I spray it after using vitamin C? Or can I spray this before applying vitamin C serum in the morning?

I've been using this for over a year & I use it after exercise & a few times during the day since i have to wear a mask all day for work.

Hypochlorous Acid is amazing but it does have a short shelf life which wasn't mentioned in the video. It also has so many other uses.

Hi, Hope you both are doing great, you doing awesome KZfaqrs guys, And really honest too..guys you both are taking care of us lot. And also I am honestly telling, we are trusting you due to you both are thinking in our end... Really superb thoughts... You doing so many hardworking.i have no words, explain about your hard working. Hard work never fails..finally I am Happy to see the best doctors...

Hypochlorous acid is used for dry eye and blepharitis treatment as well. Great video, fellas. *edit - spray onto closed eyelids, not into your eye

Should do a video on best tinted sunscreens which hides blemishes and doesn’t clog pores

You guys crack me up. Very relatable and fun.

Hello my favorite colleagues on KZfaq😊 Honestly you make me wanna change my specialty sometimes😁. Could you do a topic on safe products during pregnancy and breastfeeding . Thank you! You guys rock. Where were you in my teens?

Thank you so much for this! I couldn't remember why I had the skin active product lol 😆 Can it be used on the armpits?

Both doctors are super sweet bless.

Helping with my brown spots. Yippie!!

I've been watching you for quite a while now and love your content. Could please do a post or just tell me what you think about older products that use electric like the dermawand and handheld products that have different colored lights in them. Devices that cost cost around $200 each that a lot of us older women ended up buying a few years back.

I would LOVE to hear your opinion on my usual products - Cleans: Cetaphil gental face cleanser Treat: RoC Retinol Correxion and Protect: Sebamed Sensitive skin Moisturizing cream (this is my night routine in day no "treat" step and add a sun screen) I am 23 and had deep acne scars which are still present but better since starting retinol and hyper pigmentation which is newer. My hyper pigmentation started right around when my acne started subsiding I'm my 20s.

Can y’all please review the new elf pure skin line! Love your channel and recommendations 💙

Can you please talk about oral glutathione and tranexamic acid. I am middle eastern and I have hyperpigmentation on multiple areas of my body (PIH after mosquito bites, childhood scars...etc) and I was wondering how effective oral medications can be for treating that.

🤓. I learned so much. This information is extremely helpful for those people with acne and other skin issues. It kills COVID!?! Genius 🤓Thanks docs.

Happy to find this video...the serum i used and sold as my side income has this hypochorous acid. Tq doctors for the knowledge.

Great videos! Have you every done a video about cosmetic acupuncture? Would love to hear your thoughts.

However. Isn't just treating with an antiseptic be just as harmful as it can be useful? Our skin is a microbiome with populations of beneficial bacteria as well

THanks for this. These last a long time. What would you say the shelf life for an open bottle?

Been using this for years, the SkinSmart brand. It’s helps with acne, eczema and MGD. I also use it on new tattoos to assist with healing.

How would you incorporate this into your routine if you use vitamin c in the am and tretinoin in the pm since it can't be used at the same time as antioxidants? Thank you!

I’ve been using this stuff for a couple years now. I had some issues with my eyes and my eye doctor gave it to me and I haven’t had any problems since. Plus it’s a nice little mist that I know has all the other benefits you’ve mentioned here, so I just keep using it every day.

So I know TAO is no longer recommended due to the high rate of allergenic, so is hypochloric acid a better replacement?

For people in the UK- I recommend buying NatraSan which is the same product as in the US. I absolutely love hypochlorous acid. I started using it months ago and my face has never looked as good. It’s cleared up my acne. I’ll never be without it.

Thanks for the information!!! One question: I’ve been using it as like a toner in AM/PM, I was told it is fine to wait until the product is fully absorbed before I apply my vitamin C serum, is it still gonna impact the effectiveness of VC?

Woo!!! Let’s go!!!!

I normally recommend it for my patients for use around the eyes in the case of ocular rosacea and blepharitis but I also found a huge benefit using for maskne! Highly recommend. It’s great that it’s so easily available now!

Thanks for sharing. If we make it naturally how come it doesn’t inactivate the vitamin c serum we put in our face?

Could you looking into the brand good molecule’s and let us know if some of the items are good for your skin like their squalene oil, eye creams including the eye masks etc.!

Yay you guys are the best. Love all your tips and recommendations. Please do a video on medical grade skincare and growth factors in skincare?! Love you guys

Honestly I feel like I just stumbled on this solution, and bought it for my kids to control their maskne. But wow l, when my rosacea suddenly toned down, this was the only change I could point to. Started applying to my eyes (not contacts), and red eyes are now under control. Now I am gifting this product to everyone I know.

I have the skin smart antibacterial spray for eczema and it says it is hypochlorous acid..if I used that on my face can it also help with acne ?? It does say it is safe around the face and eyes but I'm not sure if I should by the one you showed

Thank you for the information!!

i just bought a spray of this in the first aid section at walgreens. very affordable too

Does Mederma Advance Gel work against Acne scars? Ive been using adalephene retinol every week but i have yet to see the results.

I watched almost all of your videos. Can you recommend the best sunscreen that don’t have white cast, non greasy and non comedogenic????

Can you guys start a series on skin care lines? Which ones are worth the money and hype and which ones are just expensive for no reason. I recently spent so much on perricone and would love your opinions on the line! Love your channel! 💕

So it’s ok to spray on top of sunscreen? Or is it recommended to spray before sunscreen?

About what said regarding deactivating antioxidants; can this substance create the oxidative stress we are trying to avoid? Does it deactivate the protection of sunscreens?

Liked as soon as Dr. Maxwell got Dr. Shah to spray his face. Y’all are too funny! Thank you for the knowledge and the laughter

Have you heard of the skincare brand Lancer? If so, do you recommend the Polish?

Would this be helpful for irritated face and damaged skin barrier ?

Hello doctors. Can you please create a video on body skincare (not face) like retinol body lotions etc.

According to skinsmart per manufacturer response on Amazon question -the entire line has identical formula which bears out looking at ingredients and percent list so why would one spend $14-26 or more on 8oz labeled for wound care vs $12 for 2x16oz labeled for Hand sanitizer spray or $31 for 128oz for general surface disinfectant... Again same label with same percent and mfg stated at least once that the "line" has same formula

Will it kill norovirus? I've read that it does...I bought the product called Purerox disinfectant spray. By the way I've never watched your channel until today, and I had to sit down and have a seat at my table and look at both of y'all. Both of you are just ' drop dead gorgeous men!!!!❤

Is there a concentration of the acid thats more or less efficacious? I see products on the market with 0.012%-0.018% on the market.

Y’all are behind the 8 ball on this one. Dr Dray has been talking about it for a long time.

Hello Doctors, Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'd like to incorporate hypochlorous acid in morning routine. My morning routine is, in the following order, (1) salicylic acid 2% face wash + (2) benzoyl peroxide 2% + (3) moisturizer + (4) sunscreen. At which point of my morning routine can I use hypochlorous acid? Regards,

Thank you so much for this video! I haven’t heard of the ingredient before but will definitely be purchasing. I have eczema and psoriasis and get peri oral dermatitis flare ups sometimes. Because of this I often have broken skin and bacteria can get in. I’ve had a staf infection before and it was terrible so will be trying this. Hopefully I can find something in Australia some of the products you show I can’t find.
