Chicken is Destiny He’s doing a service to the society! I think people should rely on dermatologists more than blindly following other people’s skin care routines with over expensive skin care products! Thank you Dr.Lin.
Chicken is Destiny I agree he is great. I have been watching him for a couple of years and with his advice improved my skin immeasurably. I am 66 and I like to think I have good skin but Davin’s advice really up my game. Also I’ve not spent a fortune🥰
My mum suffered from pigmentation all her life and was not aware that there was a simple drug store trick to get rid of it. Thanks to Dr Davin's by mum's pigmentation has significantly reduced after watching his videos on pigmentation. She feels so much more confident and beautiful! Thank you sooo muchhh Dr Davin! You have no idea how much of an impact you have made, and continue to make!
Cool choice. 4years ago, I used Neostrata 15 also 20, couples of bottles done and the results was bullshit. Since then I stay away from that brand, waste of money and fancy for nothing.
Yeah I tend to stick to TO because I know across the board they're fragrance free and cruelty free. I used to pick through Revolution's serums (copied heavily from TO) and get some of them but some of theirs have fragrance so it's just easier...plus TO has a $30 free shipping limit which is amazing. I gotta spend $50 to get free shipping from major Australian places like Priceline or Chemist Warehouse.
Could we see an update on your routine and procedures you use for yourself and a close up if you're comfortable sharing on what your skin concerns were and how you dealt with them. I have always visited your channel from time to time and can relate to it especially because of the skin concerns you've shared of those with brown skin or asian skin tones.
I'm a new subscriber and am binge watching as many of your videos as I possibly can. I love the fact that you address issues other dermatologists don't, because you know the public is either doing them (needling) or confused about products, who needs what, etc. So glad I found you and thanks so much for the information.
From the Ordinary: AM peptides and Vit B; PM Vit C & A. Vit B and C together not advised, as Vit B may neutralize Vit C...this is what I was told. Any confirmation is welcome :)
if you've got dry acne-prone skin and struggle with acne scarring mandelic acid works wonders. My skin always looks so much better after using it and I can even notice the difference in my skin after a few hours.
1, informative for common person 2. simple and clear. 3. information types and written down for us 5. for other doctors and cosmetologist also its important information
I'm a tech person but your channel makes me wish I went to study dermatology xd If my highschool chemistry profs were only 10% this good at teaching ...
Hi Dr. Lim! Loving the videos- they've been great viewings for bumping up my skincare game! Could I please ask if you might be amenable to doing a video on creating a video on skincare routines that incorporate acids and retinol please? Dos and don'ts, best efficacy practice, etc.? Would love to hear from a qualified dermatologist! Thanks so much for the content! 😊
This truly added to my homework in learning about acids so I can choose products and be careful to my skin in treating my dark spots and acne. Thank you so much, Doc Davin! 😊
Thank you for clarifying the mind field out there.. now that so many of these are available and just choosing is OVERWHELMING .. a brilliant vlog ... Ill be tuning in again.. from an ex-pat Australian
Thank you so much for this information! I’m new to acids and was a little lost when finding the right ones for me... you’re going to make us all beautiful
Kojie San is actually a product from the Philippines. And honestly, I have doubts about their products. About a week ago I bought their soap, but that'll be the last, especially after watching this video. I've just ordered Garden of Wisdom's Alpha Arbutin 2% + Kojic Acid 1% and I can't wait till it arrive!
As always, outstanding educational video/info. You’re a GREAT teacher! THANK YOU for sharing your precious time, research, & knowledge with us all! Hugs & Blessings 2U😊
The negative side of glycolic acid is that it makes de skin more sensitive to the sun, more exactly to the UVB rays. In other words, it can increase the amount of sun damage from UVB rays if you dont use sunscreen like a vampir around 1g 3 times per day. Instead of AHA i prefer to use PHA, you can use it everyday, day and night and even under retinol or ascorbic acid or other anti age ingredients.
Love the educational video! Thanks so much! I use retin A at night and have taken to using polyhydroxy acids a few times a week. They are a great yet gentle addition to my routine without over-exfoliating.
Hi Dr Lim, I'm wondering if you could make a video with what to expect at a dermatologist consultation. I had an appointment and was disappointed so I would love to hear what a good consultation is supposed to be like
Kojie San is a Filipino brand, not Japanese but the brand logo is a Japanese woman. The soap doesn’t work that great for pigmentation but it does lighten and brighten the skin. It’s great for acne-prone oily skin actually.
Would love to hear some possible full skincare routines from you. How do we use all these acids safely? I usually use SOME kind of acid 1-2 times per day. And in addition, I use .1% tretinoin every night. I still have acne, and I also think I’ve over-exfoliated because I can cause very dry and red patches, especially around my mouth and nose. But when I lighten up on the glycolic, my acne gets worse. I tried to swap out the glycolic half the week with lactic or a PHA toner, but again- it makes my acne worse. Thanks for all your expertise!
Hi Doctor, this is Christine from France. I love your videos and recommendations, which are really helpful. You are miles above my French dermatologist !! Which acid would you recommend for an aging, sagging and oversensitive skin. I am sixty now and would like to keep a fresh appearance, but the years are taking their toll... A simple AM and PM routine would be deeply appreciated !! Thanks !
Thank you sooo much Dr. Davin... I'm a med student with a passion for the dermatology science, please could you do a video explaining how do you approach a atrophic acne scars, specifically the invasive method to get rid of them ( I saw one of your videos where you were using a neddle kind instrument under the patient skin , but I never fully understanded lol) Sorry for my english, I'm from South America.
Thank you Dr Lim so far I have followed your instructions and I can see improvements on my melasma except for x2 spots that are big as my little finger print. But I'll keep doing it it's been a month in lock down and thought I'd concentrate on my skin. Thank you once again
Acids are always confusing, thanks for this video it helps a lot! What acid do you recommend for a mature very dry skin with few break out - glycolic or lactic acid?
56 and varicose veins on my nose. I love a warm washcloth for washing my face but might else cause this? Love these skin care videos ! So informative for this Canuck :)
thank you dr. Lim. i really enjoyed and appreciated with all of your videos about skin care and treatment. in the next video could you please sharing about tranexamic acid? because i rarely see a video about it.
Dr Davin, Is it correct that glycolic acid is not suited for skin of colour? My/my parents skin is white, however my heritage is middle eastern. And thank you for all the great information you so generously provide.
Kojie San is a Philippines brand not Japanese. And Kojic Acid 5% is available in Sesderma's Kojicol Plus (contains azealaic acid) and for azelaic acid I really like Egopharm's Azclear Lotion (20% azelaic acid)
Dr. Lim - How would you assess Murad skin care products? Also, does a prescription of retinol-a micro expire? A have a tube, but rarely used it because it irritated my skin. Meanwhile, thank you for explaining the various acids. The product recommendations are very helpful too❗️
I use Retin A .5 nightly with no issues for the last 8 months and have subscription boxes so have tried a lot of skincare over the last 18 months. I have fair skin but not sensitive skin. Never had an issue with any products which is why I was surprised when The Ordinary AHA peeling solution a few weeks ago that made me peel like a snake for weeks. Then I tried The Ordinary vitamin C which broke my skin out with an acne like rash all over that has taken almost two weeks to fade and it’s still not completely healed. But they were more like water blisters than acne. I’ve learned my non reactive skin can react! I might add I am in my 50s and my skin has always been a bit dry.
your vids are such a relief from all misinformations among youtube skincare product reviews and recommendations. I have saved a lot, hehe thank you so much Doc Davin. Love from the Philippines:-)
This was so very educational and did not put me to sleep! Lol. I am a new subscriber and find your presentations fascinating. I am 68 and have great skin but have severe wrinkles on the right side of my face bc I am a side-sleeper. I recently bought a dropper bottle of 100% pure Hylauronic acid and the results are staggering. IS IT SAFE IN THAT FORM ? Also I have a bottle of 100% Retinol (?) coming from the same pharmaceutical company...IS USE OF THAT PRODUCT SAFE? TY so much for all you do for us here !
Dr. Davin, I love your videos they are very educational. I struggle with malasma tried dozens of products and laser treatments and nothing work. Is there a particular treatment you can recommend?
What about TCA? I do have experience with using 25% on my body at home (once a month), and it's wonderful for pigmentation. Would always love to learn more about it
Hi Dr Lim, thanks for sharing your knowledge with us as always. I've been a long time follower of your channel. Your 4:59 photo of "Ordinary Plus Azelaic Acid Suspension 10%" doesn't look like it's from Deciem but some imitated product from Taiwan... Just want to point it out so your viewers don't get the imitated product! (Correct me if I am wrong, but I tried googling it thinking it is a more potent version of The Ordinary!)

no matter what brands, i still stick to the ordinary cos the price is very affordable. and no bs ingredients, as well as fragrance free!
same . The inkey and timeless
Also vegan and cruelty free!!! Yayyy!
I'm not a vegan but i think as it's 2021 the cosmetics should be vegan and no doubt cruelty free.
Cool choice. 4years ago, I used Neostrata 15 also 20, couples of bottles done and the results was bullshit. Since then I stay away from that brand, waste of money and fancy for nothing.

That and Paula's Choice and QV are my two other staple brands. FF and CF.

Would you consider doing a full AM/PM routine? Using both expensive and drug store products.

Yes, please!

Hello Dr davin, can you speak on zinc and its relation to the skin. Really love your videos, very good information.
Hi Dr Great stuff you teach ! Please talk about copper peptides.
if you've got dry acne-prone skin and struggle with acne scarring mandelic acid works wonders. My skin always looks so much better after using it and I can even notice the difference in my skin after a few hours.
