There’s a difference between looking youthful and looking preserved. Often I see people on TH-cam/social media etc who have that preserved look. Here in Vermont I see older women who look youthful without that preserved look. Rosy cheeks, bright eyes, from living a healthy life and having joy in their lives.
Doesn’t mean we don’t want to avoid premature aging. Sunscreen, teeth whitening, maybe some retinoids etc. But it seems to be living a happy life where you don’t overly focus on appearance but living your best life makes people look more attractive and youthful.
Always appreciate Dr Sam’s tips though. 😊
If you are doing a part 2 - it would be cool to understand some of the more intensive non-surgical treatments available - like micro-needling with PRP versus (ultherapy - Flaxel, CO2, clear & brilliant) . I am always confused about how these different treatments stack up against each other.
Yes please!!!
Yes please?
Yes!
Same! Want to know which to invest in for my skin concerns!
Sorry but the speed you talk at is really offputting to me. What is the rush?
I have NEVER heard the tip of wearing compression socks to prevent varicose veins!!!! Thank you so much, that runs in my family and I never knew there was a way to prevent.
I think for "anti-aging" there are 2 very important things besides the quality of the skin, that give a vibrant and youthful appearance. Thats hair and posture. My mother turning 70 this year and she has thick, long, black hair (with greys in it). And she has a great posture and walks really fast. Her back is perfectly straight. The way my mother walks and her long hair gives her a youthful aura. I take great care of my skin and hair, and also work on my muscles and posture everyday. It's important to stretch the fascia, because otherwise it sticks together and it becomes harder and harder to move.
You're right, thank you foe pointing me in the right direction
@@LoLelfy glad i could help. have a nice day, sunshine!
@@pennyjane9906 aww thank you!
I’d add caring about your physical and mental health, being curious and learning new thing, keeping your heart and mind open, being kind to people, smiling 😊 and enjoying things your truly love❤
I was going to comment the same thing ❤😊
I luckily always wore sunscreen since being a kid, as my mum always slathered me in it as she believed it would prevent tanning, and being Asian where the culture says fairer skin is better, whether it's positive or negative i grew up slathered in sunscreen which I am now thankful for, and I continued to always wear sunscreen as I grew older from habit
In addition to the healthy diet with antioxidants, I would add hydration internally. Dehydration contributes to the dark circles as well as dry skin, lips, etc. Most of us don’t drink enough water. Also, I am so glad you mentioned how proactive Australia is with their campaign for skin protection, but it has a lot to do with preventing skin cancer, more so than anti-aging effects, as I understand it.
I had surgery a few years ago. I had an IV drip for a full 24 hrs and found I had zero lines. I have yet to keep that, no matter how much water I drink. 😅😅😅
@@julesniner1766 Maybe add a liitle (real) salt (1/2 tsp) to one glass of water a day. Sounds crazy but if you don't eat a higly processed diet, it's beneficial hence saline solution for iv.
In office procedures may not be affordable. Practitioners may not be skilled (personal experience), 1800.00 blown. Some instance is your area may be locked up, i.e., no difference in fees , all in sync, the same. No competition.
Can you do a video on what sunscreens are best for reapplication on the face? Also, how do you do it when you’re wearing makeup? Doesn’t it smudge your makeup?
The problem is: Money.
Yes. I have found that CopperTone baby is well priced, I add a little tinted sunscreen to it and actually love it.
I went to my dermatologist to talk about my skin and felt very rushed and didn't ask all the questions I had. I rebooked another consultation and hope it goes better. Wish you were nearby!
I know unfortunately this experience is so common
Find another dermatologist, your health should never be rushed. All your questions need to be answered, plus these doctors charge so much money
I never leave the house without sunscreen. I’m a fan of EltaMD. In 54 and always pass for mid 30’s and I swear it’s due to my constant wearing of good quality sunscreen!
Wow your skin looks great! I've heard of Elta MD sunscreen, I need to try this sunscreen
I have worn compression socks for 50 years. 46 year nursing career. I have very few broken veins.
So helpful! Thanks, Dr. Ellis. And I’d love to see a part 2!
Great video,Dr Ellis. Thank you.
Great video! Yes part 2 please
yes yes please can you do a part two!! I would love to know more tips!
Such a great video !
Thank you for these videos and educating us Dr Sam!
Probably the best video I've viewed to date on these issues. Thank you Dr. Ellis, you've been extremely helpful.
This is one of the best and most informative videos on anti-aging!
Thanks for bringing up the compression stockings
Thank you for all the great tips ❤
Im in my 40’s and had lower blepharoplasty surgery last year and it erased years off my face
It was life changing
Same
Part 2 yes please!
Fantastic video ❤. Thank you.
I just need you as a dermatologist. ❤ This was a much needed video as I enter my 30s.
New to your channel and I love it! I’ll be 50 next month, I take great care of my skin, have used Tazarotene for years, but I just started using sunscreen every single day a few years ago, and man!! It has been a game changer!! Recently, im seeing a lot people on sm talking about “toxic” sunscreen and even some calling themselves “skin care specialists” or “MUA” who are saying sunscreen does more harm than good and sunscreen is toxic. It’s so hard to hear this, and they usually won’t change their minds at all! So it’s so refreshing seeing you talk about the importance of daily sunscreen!!! 😍
Very compelling explanation for the importance of wearing sunscreen, thank you!
Wonderful advice and wish I had known about the benefits of compression socks sooner. Have a great day!
This has to be the most interesting and informative video I have ever seen. You are so knowledgeable, it's truly impressive ❤ big kiss from a fan in Switzerland 😄
Thank you Dr Ellis!!
Your videos are so, so good.
I hope you can talk more about what a balanced regimen of cosmetic interventions looks like and what things we should take into consideration in making those decisions. It would be really helpful to hear from your experience so we can have more informed conversations with our providers. I would also like to hear about what to avoid depending on the situation.
I agree! I feel when I go into a clinic I am being pushed products and procedures to upsell me. I would love an honest example of balanced cosmetic interventions by a dermatologist.
Hello Dr. Ellis ❤
I have to start wearing compression socks. Thanks for sharing 😊
I have a fairly good understanding of how to age well but I always watch these videos just in case there’s one or two tips that I’ve missed, I almost made it through the entire video without any trouble and then boom 💥 I didn’t know about compression socks - my Dad and Grandparents have varicose veins and they look awful so that was really helpful 🙌🏻
I started using this Foreo FAQ RF device and I must admit it is absolutely great. Results are visible.
Love my ice roller on my eyes in the morning. Great tips!
Love your tips Dr Sam thank you your a sweetheart 😊❤
You look so fresh and elegant in this video. What foundation and blush are you wearing?
Thank you for the tips on compression stockings/socks! I suffered a really severe ankle sprain and now have intermittent swelling in both ankles. I feel so gross with the stockings on - that is my issue. (I don’t notice when others are wearing them.) After listening to you and learning why it is so important, I’m going to bite the bullet and wear them everyday! (EXCEPT during sandals, shorts, and capri season…I will just wear them inside instead, and will wear them IN the house during that time!)❤
Thank you so much for this very special message about “anti-aging.” May I say that your teeth are beautiful! Would you share what you use to care for them?
Can you please make a video on treatment options for Papular acne scars that commonly appear on the nose and chin? This type of acne scarring is extremely underdiscussed in the dermatological community that I would like more info on. Thanks!
Thank you ❤
Just have to say.. you are awesome!!
Thank you for the tips. Finding a water proof, non-toxic sunscreen that blends into skin well and doesn't cause breakouts is a challenge. With respect to additional tips, I find facial exercises improve my skin significantly. Not only does my skin look more toned, it's clearer and has a healthy glow. I assume that's because it stimulates blood flow in the area...
My tip: avoid ostentatious designer labels and trends. Instead build your personal wealth and you will be happier and less stressed. Less stres may improve energy which will make it easier to work out. Working out makes it easier to prioritize good nourishment. Your hair may benefit from less stress. And yes sunscreen with hats and sunnies
Exactly!
Lovely video ,Dr Sam Ellis 🎉 ❤ xx
What is best sunscreen for face please let me know thank you
You have such beautiful hair, I love the colour of it.
Sunscreen every day even when is cloudy or raining ☔️ everyone in my family thinks I’m crazy but I’m going to protect myself and my toddler. Summer is around the corner and I’m ready!!!
Hi! Thank you for great explanations! Are compression socks the same way beneficial for people with sitting work?
UV protective clothing recommendations, please!
I’d LOVE a recommendation for a retinol product for my EXTREMELY sensitive skin!! I know it will help with cell turnover but the raging redness and peeling is really not something I want to deal with!
I love the RoC retinol capsules. I have a sensitive skin too and started with this every 3 days. My skin had no issues at all.
@@angelnikki7691 Thanks for the recommendation!
You can try the Retinoid Serum from Invity. I have sensitive skin too and took some time to experiment many retinol products to find one that helps to reduce my age spots and any redness on my face after using it every 2 days.
Dr. Ellis, Thank you for the amazing information. I have a question for you. How do we find the best doctor in our area? Do we strictly go by reviews? This is very difficult. I am very happy I found your channel! 😊
How do we find the Transcript of Subjects under Description Please?
When I worked as a nurse in AZ in 2004/05 all of us nurses wore compression socks because we were on our feet for 12+ hrs a day. They really helped with swelling. But didn't help with spider veins. I'm genetically predisposed to spider veins though, so no shocker there.
They may not prevent them entirely because there’s such a strong genetic component, but they can help!
@@DrSamEllis hi dr sam, i have a question. what is the minimum age for someone to start retinol? can a 13 year old use retinol?
@@a.t3152prescription retinol is approved as low as age 9 for adolescents with acne according to Dr. Maxfield who has a channel too called Doctorly
@@a.t3152 Unless you have some really specific reason, I wouldn't suggest that.
Great video!! You are just so lovely and easy to listen. I’m doing my morning skincare routine and enjoying those wonderful tips! Thank you 😊
I have A picture I seen the other day and it was took ten years ago, I look ten years younger now then then, ten years ago. I seem to be getting younger. I do adore my K-beauty skincare, benzol peroxide and Adapalene.
Thank you for your mention of meladerm Dr Ellis. Has made a dramatic difference for me.
I’m so happy to hear that!!
I bought the beauty of Joseon sunscreen after you recommended it, and I’m so obsessed with it! I went back and bought 4 more so I don’t run out lol. Such a beautiful sunscreen that’s also lovely on the skin.
I have been obsessed with it too! I always buy several packs 😍
lol same here! last time I bought 8 from stylevana 🤣
I love the after glow on my face it gives, my face looks brightened
@@humankaleidoscope4989 is it super moisturising or dewy for oily skin....I live in a very humid and hot place also my skin is oily will it suit me
@@gowrisoman1553 I really don’t think it would work for that sadly! I’ve heard a lot of people with oily skin use it and it’s fine, but I’d say it’s more suited for dry skin. With that said, the main concern i’d have is that it’s not waterproof. Sometimes my eyes water from the wind and when that happens the sunscreen runs in those areas, so I think if you were sweating a little in hot weather it would run and shift a bit. But you should definitely do some research into other Korean sunscreens-I know there’s other ones that are waterproof, better for oily skin, and also considered holy grails. Just not sure what they’re called
Thank you so much for your video!
What about sauna like ani age tip?
My grandma tells me all the time that sauna is her secret why she looks and feels good in her age.
Thank you
Hydration! so obvious that you do, but worth mentioning ;) I'm a posture geek (for health, function, and comfort) but discovered keeping ALL of my tongue on the roof of my mouth helps me avoid crinkling my chin (and grinding my teeth). Proper tongue posture helps neck alignment too!
Oh thank you! I do the chin crinkling and teeth grinding. Maybe i'll try to transfer the stress to the tongue instead, like redirect it. Thanks!! :)
Could you please give your thoughts on using collagen powder in your part 2 video?
Great information Dr Ellis since I started using sunscreen I’ve noticed my skin got improved for good I also started at my 57 with Retinol and yeah definitely was a big change ; but nothing will works if people don’t use SUNSCREEN that’s the tip of everything 🤗
I must be the exception... I do not wear foundation or sunscreen but I use pomegrante oil on my face and other parts of my body. I do not burn, but am also only outside in the morning when I go for my walk. I have also used retinoids. The biggest thing is that I really take care of the diet and lifestyle part of being healthy. Sunscreen will not do much if you smoke, drink, don't exercise, and eat processed foods. I am 70, never had cancer and have a good metabolic panel. She didn't mention getting your vitamin D3 levels checke.d once a year. I found myself severely deficient in 2009 from staying inside and never getting any sun due to sunscreen usage, It really wrecked my skin and my health. So adequate vitamin D3 and K2 supplementation is something she should have mentioned.
@@bluewaters3100 Same, that my d-vitamin levels were very low.
@@bluewaters3100 YEAH THAT IS TOTALLY TRUE I ACTUALLY I DO WORKOUT PLUS I WALK I DONT SMOKE I DONT DRINK AND I DO HAVE VITAMIN D3 K2 IF YOU TAKE SUN BEFORE 11 AM AND AFTER 4 PM IS GOOD BUT IF YOU WALK OR WORST GO TO THE BEACH WITHOUT PROTECTION ITS ALSO A RISK IAM GLAD YOU TAKE CARE VERY WELL OF YOURSELF 🤗🤗🤗
I’ve never been interested in drinking alcohol. I always just say no thank you, and people are always so surprised!! The few times I did drink alcohol it made me feel so bloated and distended… not my personal favorite.
With summer coming up, maybe you could share your thoughts on the supplement heliocare? I recently started trying it out and I think I’ve seen some improvement in my skin.
Thank you for the tips Dr. Ellis. Can you also do a dive into products with DNA repair enzymes and whether you think they do what they claim?
ooo as a fellow plant based girlie - would love some recipe or what i eat in a day videos!
I've been self-conscious about my dark spots for years, but after using DermalMD Intimate Lightening Serum, I finally feel confident in my own skin.
Thank you Dr. Ellis. I keep waiting for a retrinal body lotion to be released.
Gold Bond makes one.
@@wandacrowell6766 thank you. Would you br able to link it? All I found were retinol body lotions, not retrinal. Thanks
Thanks Dr. Ellis for all your advices. What about the use of FDA approved-LED masks for people who have had sunburns in their past? Is it safe?
I feel the facial expression thing. I'm a chronic pain patient and I have had fine wrinkles between my eyebrows since half a year after the pain got really bad and also a 24/7 thing and lately my eyes show me where they plan to pop out crowsfeet soon despite me actively unclenching those muscles several times a day. I hate the feeling of botox though (had it as a migraine treatment and the paralysis of my muscles annoyed me) so I'm gonna live with those wrinkles
have you tried facial exercises? spend your facial muscle energy productively ;) koko is my fave!
U can try this instant filler from Invity. It looks like a syringe but there's no needles. I've been using it everyday for the past few months and I can feel my skin firming up and reducing my fine lines. Hope this helps!
Way off-topic, but I'd love to know the makeup that you're wearing! All of it, if you're willing to share, but in particular the eyeshadow shade. Beautiful!
First, love your TH-cam Channel.
I have to ask. Is titanium dioxide in skincare products safe to use if you have had skincancer removed many times…
I would love to hear more about laser treatment. I have a friend who has permanently imprinted micro squares after laser and I wonder what is the danger of lasers because nobody speaks about it. I would love to try laser but after seeing her face it definitely is visible and she is only 36. Treatment was done about 10months ago and she already tried other treatments to support healing but nothing works.
sleeping on my back was a game changer.. I noticed that I had 11s' after waking up, and I would "massage" them away... but since I'm sleeping on my back, no more 11s'.
I’ve been addicted to sunscreen and upf clothing since high school school, I am 48 and people mistake me for 20ish all the time.
What face moisturizer are you recommending do seborrheic dermatitis?
I’m an oxymoron. I am a fanatic about my keeping my skin youthful but at the same time I love my gray hair 👩🦳
What about skin elasticity or abnormalities caused by anti-seizure medications? How can we rectify that?
You mentioned laser resurfacing - is it similar to needleless mesotherapy treatment? Would you recommend it?
(Try Stigvaris socks and tights.)
Any thoughts on the Nira laser?
Thank you for your information. Only last week I started using my tretinoin compounded cream at 2% mixed with AmLactin and various parts of my body. This is the suggestion by your fellow cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Stefani Kappel❤
That sounds like a good plan
My tip: Keep a humidifier on, esp when you sleep.
Hi Dr. Ellis! I have a question I haven't been able to find online and maybe you can help ! (Long time viewer!) I'm a morning news anchor and I slap on sunscreen at 4:30 am before my TV makeup! I drove home daily around 12/1 pm and feel the rays on my face. Is the sunscreen still working there since I have been inside since application or did it break down already? I have a zinc powder sunscreen from supergooop that I apply sometimes before my commute home (1 hour) and was wondering if I truly need it ? Thanks so much!
What should I do if I can’t tolerate retinol at all? Is there a good alternative?
How do you feel about water intake? I am really trying to up my game on that as I only reach for my glass when thirsty, which is not very often.
Thank you Dr. Ellis! With the compression socks would you recommend if a person had Reynards? I already have issues with blood flow to my feet, but I would like to try if there are no complications.
Or Seventies. I’m in the best health now Than I have in years. I go to the gym at least 3 times a week. I have started wearing sunscreen for over a year now. I’m 75. I do have lines on my face and some loose cheeks.
What about the Nira laser? What is your take on that?
Hi Dr Sam Happy Tuesday so which is the best option for aging signs neck lines and laugh lines
radio frequency microneddling or Botox
I have wrinkles and fine lines due to my aging skin but I found this instant filler from Invity without needles that really made my skin feel firm and reduced my fine lines after using it every day for 3 months.
Dr Sam, Do the angel lift strips really work?

Is it possible to avoid yellow staining from sunscreen on white clothing?
Does UV light from welding, penetrate cotton ?
I have those neck horizontal lines. I noticed before but didn't think much of it.
Don’t think much of it! They’re no big deal and super common 🫶🏼
Can I use my retinol in the summer?
Make sure to sleep on your back!
My sleep was starting to form a giant diagnol wrinkle across one side of my face. It looked horrible. So I force myself to sleep on my back, and now it's goneee
Yes that definitely can help! I think this falls under tip #5 of avoiding repetitive movements or positions that contribute to permanent skin creasing/wrinkling!
Hi there..what can you say about the sunscreen that can be take in..here in the Philippines we are very rich with sun...so there are a lot of suncreen that can be take in like vitamins....what can you say about that?
I am brand new to retinoids. Can you please recommend some for first time users? Thank you
I have a whole TH-cam video on this!
I love your TH-cam! I have a question for you. I am trying to cut down on my skincare routine. I have found over the past couple months for myself that less is more beneficial to my skin & my skin has never looked better. Usually it's just cleanser & SPF everyday for me. However, if I am doing makeup for a special occasion I'll add in eye cream, serum, and moisturizer (but that's not everyday). For the most part I feel like the more stuff I pile onto my face "suffocates" or irritates my skin. It's nice when my skin can breathe. In your professional opinion is eye cream necessary? I was googling it and a lot of sites say no.
Some answers were:
"Look, if things are pretty regular when it comes to your eye area (it's not too dry, puffy, dark or creased) and if you’re already using a good serum and facial moisturiser (that doesn't irritate your eyes), then these will do the trick nicely. Because the thing is - an eye cream essentially only hydrates and protects the skin around the eye, which are all the things your trusty serum and cream are doing to the rest of your face"
"Most eye creams do very little other than moisturise the skin's surface and therefore temporarily plump up fine lines and wrinkles due to their hydration effects," Eye cream is a moisturizer in a tiny tube at a higher price."
I’ve always be taken for 20 younger than I am, but now that I’m 74, I’m only looking 10 years younger. Aacchhkk, wrinkles, facial hair, discoloration, chin hair! It is hard to keep up.
I would love to know if I have 0.5 prescription strength Retin-A...can I put some in my night lotion for legs, arms, etc? Or should I purchase the Nutrium?
