I actually loved how you said that pores are an anatomical structure like ankles. I've NEVER heard it described like that and makes sooo much sense.

Yes to Botox video please. I asked my derm for a recommendation for a good anti-wrinkle eye cream and she recommended Botox. (I’m 30 years old.) She said Botox is the best for stopping wrinkles before you start to get them. I was shocked that was her one and only response to my question.

@AllyKit 3 жыл бұрын

I asked my derm if I should do a chemical peel for my chest wrinkles. He said Botox. It did NOT work, even temporarily. I paid $600. Cash grab! This was in my 30s. I should’ve started using Tretinoin. But I did switch derms after that.

@asideofaioli4630 3 жыл бұрын

@@galato4234 no, it's not bad! It's just that it's only useful for as long as you use it (and only certain types of hair loss), so it's not like it stimulates hair growth & you're set. Once you stop, the hair goes away again. Plus it's not super cheap either. And I just don't like the idea of being dependent on something that requires that kind of lifetime commitment. I'm afraid I'll get used to having my hair back, and then one day I start getting a little lazy or maybe simply can't afford it & boom, the trauma of losing it all over again 😔 Everyone is diff though and some people don't mind. It can definitely be effective though! I haven't used it though, so you should look into some hair loss communities for more info about what it's like. They're prob way more informed than I am 🙃

Your kindness and lack of judgement really shines through your videos. It’s so great to see great doctors like you and Dr. Dray on here giving us so much useful information.

@brooklily7150 3 жыл бұрын

With all due respect, "Dr" Dray is basically an infomercial channel, misleading titles and the same pitch on a loop! She contradicts herself continuously. One minute she's selling coffee and the next, she's out getting coffee. Any time she is challenged or questioned in regards to her "career" status, she blocks and deletes! Imagine being under the care of a healthcare provider with such a lack of Facilitating a discussion, yet she feels at liberty to voice her opinions freely?

@Brook Lily I’ve been watching Dr Dray from the beginning and I get what you’re saying, so many sponsorships is something that makes one go “hmmm 🤔”. However, when her common sense and my common sense align in terms of routines or products, the results for me have been great. Same with others I know, I share tips I used from Dr Dray and each person had a little bit of improvement. I can understand why people don’t watch her, but for me it’s worth hearing the infomercials for the gold nuggets she gives sometimes.

@brooklily7150 2 жыл бұрын

@@msi8311 yeah, I missed the gold nuggets? Wear SPF because the sun can cause premature aging and sunburns, AHA exfoliate, dandruff shampoo is great for scalp conditions and lash glue causes eye irritation. That's pretty much the entire channel in a nutshell, on a loop other than latching on a celebrity topic or another Derm channel. Common sense should tell you that a Dr. Whom spends her days in the Dollar Tree and Target lack the ability to practice medicine! Reciting medical journals in front of a camera in-between a Yoga workout...not exactly what I'm seeking in way of healthcare providers! Don't forget to put your helmet and gloves on right after you slather some Vaseline on your eyelids!

I can definitely attest to the fact that an impaired barrier will make basically *any* sunscreen sting. That’s the first way I notice if I have an issue: my normal stuff starts to sting. As soon as I’m in a better spot, I can use any of my sunscreens, no issue. I’ll start to convince myself sometimes that that sunscreen is causing irritation. Important to remember that often it’s your barrier, not the product.

I’m only 18 but I’m pretty sure i’m developing rosacea too. My skin can tolerate pretty much anything. I went very quick into retinal but i’ve never had any negative reactions. I just know that warmth and alcohol can make it flare up

Is it a maintenance treatment that you must do 4x a year? Is Fraxel more effective? Also can IPL or lasers cause rebound hyperpigmentation?

I am not a dr but as someone who does get Botox, I would suggest NOT doing it for the 1st time right before wedding.

I would suggest doing it 4-6 months before event, and if you like results, do it again about 2-4 weeks before (the effect is not immediate). I am 44 and have been getting botox for about 1.5 year. I love it and wish I would have started a little sooner. Good luck! 🙂
