Thank you for having me speak about the intersection of where dermatology and weight loss meet. Hair loss, skin laxity, collagen loss and facial aging are things we are all encountering in our weight loss practices. Glad we could shed some light on an aspect of care that is sometimes overlooked or trivialized, but makes such a huge impact on our patients.

The literature regarding the intersection of dermatology and obesity is growing! Can’t wait to share my thoughts on the interconnection of these 2 specialities.

The scoop on red light therapy for the scalp! It can help but not as a stand alone therapy. It’s just another tool in the tool kit.

Hair loss is not a “by the way” concern at your derm visit. It’s so common as I am walking out the room for the patient to the say “oh doc BTW what do I do for this hair loss” Hair loss is a complex issue that takes time to get an accurate gathering of information, assessment of the scalp, timeline review, medication review, order labs, perform biopsies and develop a treatment plan. It’s an entire visit by itself not a last minute add on.

First of all round of applause for these LEGS!!! 👏👏👏👏

These legs require WORK

1) Resistance training with increasing loads. You have to lift weights that gradually get heavier and heavier to build that muscle. Ladies we lose muscle faster as we get older so we have to train heavy and consistently 2-3 times every week to see gains.

2)Hydrate and exfoliate- glycolic acid lotion or ammonium lactate lotions can be great to help with pigmentation, texture and hydration all at the same time. (Wear your sunscreen with these)

3) Laser har removal- getting rid of the hair gets rid of half the problems wit our legs. Just let it go. No more wax burns or irration from shaving, waxing, depilatory’s or creams.

*this is not medical advice, see a board certified dermatologist if you have specific concerns about your legs*

There is a world where Derm’s and esty’s work the best together. I don’t have time to create a full skin care routine for a patient and show them how to layer it go through the nuances of how to combine products, also your insurance does not cover these topics at a medical visit. ⁣
⁣
I love letting my master esty take the reins and provide the guidance needed to get patients on the right path. Collaboration, while every one respecting scope of practice, is essential for the best patient outcomes. ⁣
⁣
For all the Esty’s that follow, what are your thoughts or experiences on working with Derm’s? Have the been positive or negative experiences?

was really thoughtful about this product. Its great for the sensitive skin girlies who want advanced skin care but don’t have the down time to be red, irritated, and peeling all over the place. Using it 3 times a week alternating with other gentle skin care is the best use.

Stronger is not always better go with the strength you are able to comfortably use most days of the week!

What do you think will be on trend for this year? What are we leaving in 2025?

Exercise is one of the most underrated skin treatments.

Better circulation, lower cortisol, enhanced collagen production, fewer inflammatory flares all results in workouts that truly show up on your skin.

Developing healthy habits gives you a long lasting glow.
