Thanks so much for another thoughtful, informative video Dr. Sugai. My mixed heritage and history of unprotected sun worship have resulted in some pretty significant challenges as I age. I've learned so much from you and sincerely appreciate both your knowledge, ability to deliver great content informed by both experience and research and to top it all off, I love your sense of humor!
Dr. Sugai my dermatologist gave me medication for melasma and I have to add vitamin C supplements to take it. I think my melasma is improving. Thanks for your video about melasma and dark skin spots.
Ditto! I have recently found a very gentle PHA made by Aveeno, their Calm + Restore line. It works gently over time. “Nourishing PHA Facial Exfoliator”
Hello , I am a new subscriber and love your channel. I have dark spots on the side of my neck and a few on my face. So many products out their not sure which to try. Thank you for your very helpful information. 👍
I love this content, I have been using targeted skin care for hyperpigmentation I like it, but I find it's lightening my whole face, I like my dark skin, it's not bleaching but it's brightening a bit much, also can you do a video on safely removing facial hair for darker skin.
Thank you Dr Sugai ❤; I didn't know what the skin barrier was or that I even had one; you are so thorough and my skin care has improved from listening to you
Thank You for this content Dr. Sugai. Let’s help Dr. Sugai reach 500K. 👍& subscribe bc I learn more listening to him than the last time I saw my derma.
Thank you for this helpful video, Dr. Sugai! Have you heard of Cosmelan which they claim to be the world’s best treatment for melasma? What is your opinion on it? Thanks!
Ohhh WÖW, This is the 1st NORMAL Video I Have Sëën Ü Dö.. Now I Will Stay & Listen, Learn, Fröm Ü.. Please Do the Rest of Your Videos Like This.. I Can Listen & Learn..Thank Ü
Hi. Thank you so much for your videos. I learn a lot from them. I am Puerto Rican and I have enlarged pores. I clean my face every morning and night but still seem to have enlarged and looks like clogged pores as well. I don’t have acne but I have the issues with my pores on my cheeks, nose and chin area. Do you have a video specifically on pores? Thank you so much for all you share!!!
Dr. Sugai, Thank you so much for this video. Very informative and helpful. I am struggling with melasma for 3 decades to present and am have been taking care of it. Can I wear the Dermtlgy Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF46 on top of the broard spectrum spf 50 sunscreen when outdoors?
I'm German/ Irish with darker skin 😂😂 more Irish acording to family history So 70s child never wore sun screen. I do have dark spots but no wrinkles ! GENETICS ARE THE BIGGEST FACTOR
You can probably check his shorts on kids skincare. Dr. Jenny Liu has a video on kids skincare that might be helpful as well. Even his teen skincare video might be helpful.
Thank you dr Sugai for this video. I have melasma on my face (forehead and cheeks) and I have watched tons of video about it. In most of them people will emphasis on sunscreen which is of course a good way to not worsen it. But very few people are giving tips to improve the skin itself. One tip which makes a huge difference for me is aloe vera. Aloe vera is the super ingredient against burns and the area affected by melasma (on my skin at least...) seems to lack hydratation. Putting only sunscreen on a dehydrated melasma prone skin is to me not enough.
Dr. Sugai, I tolerate better prescription Adapalene gel of 0.3% and apply retinol cream on top of it. Is my daily routine as affective for anti-aging, collagen production, etc as Tretinoin?
Hi Dr Sugai! Thanks for always making such informative videos! Can I use a cosmetic product like concealer with iron oxides on top of my non tinted sunscreen and be fine as long as I reapply?
I prefer a chemical sunscreen for my skin. Is an SPF 50 +++ as good as using a tinted mineral sunscreen? I have 4 or 5 small dark spots that I am trying to get rid of. I believe they are just from sun and aging but they bother me.
Dr. Sugai, my skin darkened a bit after using niacinamide 5 percent along with 2 percent hyaluronic acid and 1 percent arbutin acid. Please tell me why 😢
can you please review lilyanas super vitamin C and high potency retinol. Do they really live up to the hype for high quality at exceptional low prices?
If you mean in your sunscreen, some derms say not to do that as it can affect the sunscreen setting up properly. You can apply foundation over your sunscreen or even a SPF powder over the sunscreen or use a tinted sunscreen.
Hi Dr Sugai I’m 66 of Hispanic descent and clueless to where to begin. Do you offer FaceTime services? Definitely starting to show my age and need help
MAHALO! Didn't need this video, just watched because I was literally, just thinking about the short you did about fingernails. I can't remember what yellow nails meant 😮. After removing my nail polish I see that my nails are yellow. What is the reason Dr. Dan?? 😮 Thank you & we need a "LOVE" tab to smash for you! Especially when you do ur jams & of course the Princesses appearances!❤🎉
Mahalo!!! Yes- nail polish can cause yellowing of the nails. It will recover after several months after taking a break from nail products but it’s very common! Happy new year and take care. Appreciate you!🙏🤙❤️
Dr. Sugai, I wish your video’s weren’t so edited. It seems like the screen is blinking for me, and you aren’t breathing in between sentences. (I mean, of course you are we just don’t see it and it sounds like run on sentences. There are absolutely no pauses, and I just want to scream breathe and slow down. Sorry, I do love your info though.
Tinted sunscreen on a man doesn't look like makeup? Really? And on brown skin? I avoided tinted sunscreen due to these fears. Please show some pictures of men of color with tinted sunscreen as I'm not convinced I wouldn't look as if I'm wearing makeup base or foundation meant for Caucasians on my face if I use a tinted sunscreen.
He might say that as the untinted sunscreen with zinc will give what I call "ghost face" on me and I am pale. So it might really look very white on your darker face?
Great doctor, thank you. So retinol can give dark spots ? I thought it was the contrary ! Please try speak just a little more slowly, foreigners are listening to you.
As a phisician you should know better. The label "Hispanic" has absolutely nothing to do with having dark skin. Nothing. Hispanics and Latinos are not genetically linked. Please keep the following in mind: Race and Hispanic origin are distinct and separate concepts. The labels "Hispanic" and "Latino" are not related to biology or skin color. Individuals of Hispanic and Latino origin do not fit into specific biological, anthropological, or genetic categories and can belong to any race, including white, black, or Asian. Any study that associates biological, anthropological, or genetic criteria with individuals of Hispanic origin is a systematic distortion of statistical outcomes, resulting from an unaccounted factor in its derivation.
In this case, I am referring to Latin American origin and Spanish speaking countries which “Hispanic” has been defined in the dictionary. I was in France for a conference last month and my colleagues from Latin American countries battle hyperpigmentation in their patients with deeper skin tones. That is what I meant by using the term in this video. Thanks for watching.
To be clear, race is also a social construct and a problematic one at that (just look at all the diverse ethnicities lumped together as “Asian” 🙄). I think sometimes we have no choice but to make the best of the existing framework, however flawed. I appreciate that you clarified that both skin of color and fair skinned folks can experience these issues!
I feel ya, but the majority of the world are people of color...unless you have no melanin in your skin...I get your argument about the social construct of race/ethnicity/ nationality...makes me sick, as well, however, it doesn't change the fact the majority of the world's people are melanin-filled, from subtle to a deep, rich brown, no matter if one chooses to identify as white...can we just start over already with all of this...smh
Oh no...here we go..why does EVERYTHING have to do with race?? It doesn't! Lighten up and don't be so critical of a doctor who clearly knows what he is doing! 🙄
I'm Hispanic and deal with hyperpigmentation ,love your videos, don't ever stop helping us❤

I am unable to find hydroquinone in any products. Any suggestions??
Geeat content Doc!
Hi!Dr.Sugai
What is the best for acne and pores please?🙏🏻
Hi. Thank you so much for your videos. I learn a lot from them. I am Puerto Rican and I have enlarged pores. I clean my face every morning and night but still seem to have enlarged and looks like clogged pores as well. I don’t have acne but I have the issues with my pores on my cheeks, nose and chin area.
Do you have a video specifically on pores?
Thank you so much for all you share!!!
Have you gone to get a good facial? Try to find yourself a dermatologist even if you have to pay out of pocket.
Lune & aster CC spf 50 PA+++ is also great if you want more medium makeup coverage.
Thank you Dr. Sugai
Thank you for a very informative video. I always get great advice from you. Can I use a retinol/retinoid in the morning? I use tret every night.
Love it. Straight forward and informative
Dr. Sugai, Thank you so much for this video. Very informative and helpful. I am struggling with melasma for 3 decades to present and am have been taking care of it. Can I wear the Dermtlgy Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF46 on top of the broard spectrum spf 50 sunscreen when outdoors?

So 70s child never wore sun screen. I do have dark spots but no wrinkles ! GENETICS ARE THE BIGGEST FACTOR
I have to disagree, genetics is not the biggest factor. The biggest factor in dark spots is UV exposure.
Great video Dr Sugai! Very informative!
Hi, can u talk about what’s the best cleanser to use on children’s face after using water resistant sunscreen? Thank you ❤
You can probably check his shorts on kids skincare. Dr. Jenny Liu has a video on kids skincare that might be helpful as well. Even his teen skincare video might be helpful.
Hello Dr
Is it possible to book an online consultation and where
Thank you 🙏
Thank you !
I’m very melasma prone but distance runner and cyclist can you recommend or do a video on best tinted sun screens for sport and water ?
I was hoping to hear some brands of hydroquinone that I should use. Can you please share that information
Merci pour votre implication et votre dévouement, vraiment génial d'avoir votre expertise. Merci!!!!
I have dark spots isolated and not a wave of pigmentation.
What do you think of the oral tranexamic acid in pill form for melasma? I just don’t see a lot of dermatologist recommending it.

I have dark hyperpigmentation…looks mole like spot for years though I haven’t done anything to fix it.
I get laser treatments every three yrs. Reasonable cost, barely any downtime, quick procedure. Non invasive. I recommend it
Hi Dr Sugai
How can I buy the large bottle of the La roche posay anthelios sunscreen?

Hauoli Makahiki Hou!🌺🍍🥭😎
Mahalo and Happy New Year to you too, my friend!🙏🤙
Hi.. can I put some drops of foundation on my sun screen? Thanks ☺️
If you mean in your sunscreen, some derms say not to do that as it can affect the sunscreen setting up properly. You can apply foundation over your sunscreen or even a SPF powder over the sunscreen or use a tinted sunscreen.
dr sugai what is the best nightcream for melasma
Hello doctor could you please make a video on how we can reduce PCOD acne + dark spots
I'm not sure if I heard correctly, did Doc say, use sunscreen and then tinted sunscreen on top of that?

@@danielsugaimd
Thanks so much! Happy New Year to you as well!
Lasers are the best. 4X a year and then good simple products 2X a day.
Can I still use vitamin C while using retinol?
Several other sources say yes. I am using it both.
Nice
Dr Sugai would you please address the date on a sunscreen...does it just stop working on a certain date and doesn't zinc oxide last indefinitely?
Is Sense more effective than Cyspera?
Please talk about eye cream.
He has a short or two on them.
Hyperpigmentation over deep pocket acne scare.
You see 30 patients a day 😮
Of course..Why do you think they rush you in and out.. me I have my questions written down and if they're in a hurry too bad too sad.
Dr. Sugai, I wish your video’s weren’t so edited. It seems like the screen is blinking for me, and you aren’t breathing in between sentences. (I mean, of course you are we just don’t see it and it sounds like run on sentences. There are absolutely no pauses, and I just want to scream breathe and slow down.

It's 100x's Better Than His Other Videos. Like the Ones He Doesn't Even Talk.. Just Plain Stupid, Hard to Watch, Learn Nothing.. ✌️🇨🇦
What does it mean if a dark spot turns blue from fade cream. ?
He says in his video if it goes that color you're using it too often
Is this a reupload?
My sunscreen is now a mask when I’m doing yard work

This is too much information compacted. I'll speak to my doctor next week
This doctor talks too fast 😅
Great doctor, thank you. So retinol can give dark spots ? I thought it was the contrary ! Please try speak just a little more slowly, foreigners are listening to you.
Paramita,ada cowok cina mirip kamu sedang cari istri 😅
You talk so fast and you’re throwing so much at us

Oh no...here we go..why does EVERYTHING have to do with race?? It doesn't! Lighten up and don't be so critical of a doctor who clearly knows what he is doing! 🙄
I can go outdoors in the direct sun for just ten minutes and ,boom, just like that 🤌, my melasma journey starts all over again. 😅
I so appreciate this information, thank you!
