The very useful basic advice you offer is appreciated, so thank you for that… BUT the majority of people viewing this video cannot afford to pay $360 every month for your brand skin care products! Those who can afford it without any problem are those who can see surgeons like you anyways for procedures… You mention your own wife as an example regarding good sun protection but please…she also has access to exquisite skin care and treatments as well! A truly helpful video would offer suggestions of affordable but effective alternative products and how to use them properly…This certainly would keep many of us from trying and accumulating one product after another as you mentioned…and NO your products STILL wouldn’t be anywhere near affordable in exchange!
I understand the slap in the face when you see prices like this. I would want to know how long the products last. I use Obagi products and the most expensive item would be 260.00 for their neck and chest serum. It will last me about three months like most of their products. The most important thing is that it works . I mean it really works. I have thrown away so much money purchasing products that might have well have been water. I also use tretinoin. I am 63 and look nowhere near it. Genetics have been good to me. My parents never developed the wrinkles I have seen on many older people. Had I not stayed out in the sun so much I would have had even less wrinkles. I guess my point is that you need to find out how long these products last. Is it 3 months, 6 months? If so, divide that up and see if it is affordable. I put money away and have three months to save up for my next purchase. When it is time to buy more I have the money available. If it works and you see a major difference then at least you are not throwing your money away. I love my Obagi because I see a huge difference.
I just started on Obagi and I'm 65..might be too late to see results but does seem to be worth the expense.
Perricone products and castor oil are doing great things for my 76 yr old face
@@MarylandMermaid how do you use the castor oil?
@@doramar8776 hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, skin. Just rub some in
The right skincare active ingredients:
Retinol
Vitamin C
Niacinamide
Peptides
Hyaluronic acid
Certain oils
Ceramides
Growth factors
Non-hydroquinone lighteners

Exfoliation

Good diet
Good sleep
Lots of water/fluids
You're a treasure. Thanks for this!
@@jenA9026 My pleasure.
What are growth factors? Can you please give me an example of one?
@@gwenbrown2575
Sorry, cannot help you as my skincare regimen consists of Retin A, Cerave moisturizer/cream + sunscreen La Roche Posay SPF50.
My focus is on daily physical exercise, daily facial exercise, rest, sleep, affirmation, gratitude, drinking water, and interim fasting.
No vitamin C, No hyaluronic acid, ....
And of course, no botox, no fillers, ......
I would NEVER consider cosmetic surgery....it is simply not for me!
I love myself exactly as I am!
By the way, I also use red light therapy.
He oído que el ácido hialuronico no sirve para nada 😢
I am a 60 year old woman who usually gets mistaken for a 45 year old woman . I have always been consistent with my skincare routine since I was a teenager. I’ve never been able to tan, which I realized very early, like age 15, so I just avoided the sun during the most direct times of the day. I looked into your skincare line, and although the products look to be good quality, the prices are, I must say, quite high to say the least. I guess I will continue with what I’ve been doing for years.
What is your skincare routine?
Hi, What products do you use, please? Many thanks ^_^
Why switch, what you're doing is obviously working 😊
Yes. The products are expensive. I ordered a couple of times ,but they work. My husband asked me what I was doing and that my skin looked like a million dollars. (I said looked because I couldn’t afford to keep buying it 😮
Yes he upped the prices as well.
I am an RN and a dermatologist visited an older patient in the hospital to evaluate a suspicious lesion and pointed out the ‘farmer’s tan’ that the man had on his neck that looked like tough, dark, old, dried shoe leather with deep crevices while his back which had been covered by a shirt most of his life was pale and smooth. It was around 1980 when sunscreen didn’t have the same importance that it did then, but I wore hats and sunscreen. Several years later I worked for a plastic surgeon and again saw visible sun damage when 40+ year olds were bringing in their 60+ year old moms for face lifts and other procedures. While the older women were of different generation who didn’t worship the sun, their skin was in better shape even though sagging had occurred. Their daughters usually had tans with more lines, especially if they were smokers and the skin alone made them look older than they were. I’m in my 60’s and even now, the only consistent skin regimen was sunscreen for 40+ years and even under harsh dental lights, hygenists comment about how good my skin looks. I never wore anything on my face except sunscreen and eye makeup and still don’t. I also found out that fluorescent lights can cause skin damage so sunscreen is beneficial even when working inside. Preventing sun damage is by far the best thing you can do for your skin.
I used to live in Singapore and one could always spot older Australians at the supermarket checkout as the back of their neck was exactly as you describe above... Use sunscreen, cover up and stay out of the sun as much as possible.
Can you please make a video on your opinion about Red light therapy as anti ageing treatment
And do it now. Dont wait till you have one of your own to sell 😊
Get on TH-cam and watch Alex Ferguson. All he does is review redlight products and talks with different companies. He is totally the expert on all the ins and outs of red light. I bought because of his reviews after a bad car accident and a concession (besides the face benefits 😂) and love my RL! It is the boom! Best thing I have purchased!
It is Alex Fergus…..thanks auto correct 🤦♀️
He might have a video mentioning that. Just put his name and Red Light Therapy in the YT search engine and see if it comes up.
I love red light therapy and completely obsessed with it! My results have been amazing with my skin, weight and pain management!♥️
I have lived in the desert southwest all my life and so did my older sister and mother. Both were very fair skinned. My mom passed at age 87, and hardly had a wrinkle, my sister passed at 70, and had beautiful skin. They both pretty much stayed out of the sun. I’m 63 and have no wrinkles although I personally haven’t been so sun shy and rarely, if ever used sunscreen. Long story short, just good genes, I guess.
I'm 68, with no wrinkles. I have never used sunscreen.
Well, Sun is good for your health.
My grand dad died at 105, my 2 grandma at 99.
All of them Didn’t avoid Sun, but not actively exposed to Sun either. 😅
Moderate Sun exposure is good for your health and beauty I think.
I choose to be health and don’t mind a little bit of wrinkles.
I met many people in my time both young and old but never have I met anyone that is 70 and older that has beautiful skin. Your family must have superior genetics
It’s out there just gotta look
Could you possibly do a skin care routine for menopausal ladies (over50’s) please, I follow your advice religiously, but how to apply actives in routine (layering actives) would be very appreciated and helpful 😊
Great idea! I second your motion!!!🙌🏽
Yes please do!/
Yes pls
Yes❤
Retinol: three times at week only at nights.
Vitamin C on clean skin every day
Sun protector every day
That’s it.
Hyaluronic acid don’t penetrate the skin
Other serums that promise hidratation don’t penetrate the skin
Drink a lot of water and have a nice sleep. Avoid the sun!
Yes!As another commenter asked it would be great if you could do a video for post menopausal women over 50 on how to layer actives .Just in case we don’t have your line yet😊
Great straight to the point and classic advice! I love skincare and how u minimize everything uncomplicated
My face aged backwards I look younger now than I did 13 years ago I’m 60 this year! Be patient! don’t give up! These tips work and your diet is really important too watch your sugar, it will age you faster too! It causes glycation! Cut out white flour and anything with processed oils, all the oil that yellow at the store it’s highly processed and terrible ..use good quality olive oil,Avocado oil, macadamia oil .. much sodium from table salt it terrible too! Use Redmonds sea salt it’s better! Eat your greens!!
Thanks for the reinforcement by these tips. I do most of these since retirement and have never looked and feel better at 73. Most people at the gym thinks I'm in my early 50's.
Have to be stricter with my sun protection wear.
Walking outdoors 3 times daily.
Absolutely great advice. Thanks DrK
Mercy and happy holidays everyone. Thank you for educating us.
Thank you very much for this VERY IMPORTANT advice!!
I am 52 and I am grateful for your advice. Your videos are very informative and no nonsense. I appreciate that.
Always great info! Thank you!!!❤
Clear concise excellent advice! The consistency part is my struggle! You exained it so well and we are so bombarded with products and promises. I will create a routine and stick.with it saving my skin and money 😂
I’m 53. I have been wearing sunscreen daily winter and summer for about a decades and used a basic cocoa butter with vitamin E morning and night and I don’t have many wrinkles. Now I’ve added actives, exfoliation with ahas, and even better moisturiser and the few wrinkles I did have look lessened. So at any age, it’s worth starting to do the things the dr recommends in this video.
I’m so glad I stumped on your page. Thank you!!
Question… love your content, I already do everything you reco and despite my *advanced age* 😎 I love my skin. The only thing I don’t think I’ve seen you address is the effect of LED light, specifically at-home devices. Would love to hear your perspective.
Such great advice Dr! Thanks very much!
Great tips from a leading Specialist. Thanks . You sure have a lot of followers and great comments 😀
You are totally right dr. Karam.
Consistency! The word of the century! I wanted to try your Trifecta products, but unfortunately, I'm 67 and retired. Just can't afford it. But I can afford consistency when it comes to taking care of my skin.❤
Wealth buys beauty.
there are plenty of great products at the drugstore. just check the ingredients
Thanks, I just found out I am on the right path. Cleansing and peeling, I will improve.
Excellent advice, wish I knew more when younger.
I just come across your video. For the first time.
I live in Florida, in a place that is know for one of the world's #1, beaches and Seafood. So to say I practically live at the beach.
Yes, now I am trying to reverse all the damage of always being in the sun. I am glad I stumbled across this video tonight.
Thanks and may you have a Blessed day.
Thank you for always emphasizing the actives and the necessity for moisture! I'm in my late 30s and adjusting to my skin feeling dry and deflated when that has never been the case for me. Learning my new skin is a challenge, but you make it easy. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂🎉😢😮😅😊

Thank you for the great advice and expertise. I've been working hard on treating my skin well, looks like I'm headed in the right direction. Turning 54 shortly and feel I look better than when I turned 50...
Thanks again for the extra tips 🙂
👍🏼
I have been using your trifecta and polish since the day they launched. I am going to be 73 in the spring, and I get compliments all the time on my complexion. I don’t wear make up, just a tinted moisturizer with a high SPF. I would never trade your products in for anything else!🎉
At $260 monthly for the trio and another $75 for the polish… you are fortunate to be able to order and use these products since the day they were launched…For those reading these comments, please mention if you have had any other procedures or treatments, what your skin was like before using, etc… it would be very much appreciated by most to determine if your results are relatable! Thank you!
So happy to hear the products are working for you!! If you have a minute… I would really appreciate it if you could write a review for us. Here is the link: karammdskin.com/collections/products/products/karam-trifecta
Thank you! Sensible and common sense advice from some that knows!
Thanks again for more education for my skin!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
My pleasure
I am 57 and grew up in Southern Ca. near Newport Beach. My skin looks really great for my age and what I put it through when I was young. This is partly my genetics but I have always used good skin care and I am consistent with actives and sunscreen. People never guess my age. I worked for a cosmetic line when I was young and I noticed some of the older ladies who had been using the products for years, had the most beautiful skin. I now know one of the biggest reasons was the foundation had zinc oxide as one of the top ingredients. Sun protection is huge!
Begging helps us…how?
Now that's some self confidence.
Skinceuticals sunscreen zinc oxide has been key for me! Used it 20 plus years
Thank you so much for the good information.
I love the sun & need it for vit D & my skin looks vibrant & young.. I only use natural products & focus on a healthy diet. Other than smile lines, I'm good. I do agree with some other points.
Thank you Dr. Karam! Be well.
I love Dr Amir’s channel so much! Such a legend to share his experience and expertise
Many thanks!!
My mother is 76 years old and has been using the simple Nivea cream for over 50 years and looks 60 years old. Nothing else....no expensive creams and products that only make us more wrinkled from high prices...
This proves once more how genetics is the biggest factor in whether you're going to age fast or not.
@@maruskaehrensdorfer exactly.
Our sun is far more strong now than 40 years ago
@@susanjarvis911 and the products which contain a lot of industrial stuff, as well.....
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 “more wrinkles from high prices!!”
Funny but true!!
I’ve been in the process of undoing years of sun worship. I started sunscreen about 5 years ago, at age 54. My skin looks much more luminous with using actives, sunscreen, some lasers, and now microneedling. It’s definitely an uphill battle undoing all the damage I did.
Love that! Wishing you luck
How often do you get microneedling.
@@gwenbrown2575 I’ve started going every two months
I'm doing the same!!
What about microceller water
I use your products regularly and am most grateful for the quality and simplicity. They make consistency easy and no other products turn my head or tempt me. My mother is turning 90 this year, uses crappy face products inconsistently, drinks wine every evening and sun worshipped for years with no sunscreen. She’s never had surgery or filler or Botox. She has always looked years younger than she is and her skin continues to be amazing. She is healthy in every way. Genes definitely play a big role!!
Sun protection and starting it early. Trifecta and Polish are great. I have learned a great deal regarding the latest in skin care from Dr. Karam.
I'm 61 and have always used good skincare products, as I live in France. Also my dermatologist injects less botox on the 2 zones mentioned, so hopefully I'll stay good a little longer. As usual your video is honest and informative.
Very interesting and great advice! Happy New Year! 🎉
Thanks for sharing this information 😊
Thanks fot the great advice. 😊
GREAT VIDEO! Thank u.
THK U SOOO VERY MUCH FOR THIS TON OF GOOD INFO...I NEED THIS..
You explain very well and structure your video well. Subbed! Look forward to learning from you rather than all those young promotering content creators
Very well placed. I agree with you 100% Mr Karam
😮😮
Same here,I m turning 56 this year and generally mistaken for 40 years old.I ve had a skinroutine since my teens (at the time only a cheap hydrating cream)and by the time I was 20 hardly ever had my face in the sun again.Same for the skin on my body,neck and decollté look like a 30 year old,I don t smoke and I m only an occasionaly drinker(like birthdays and such).I m convinced that has made a huge difference in how my skin is now.I use reasonably priced products.I would love to try his products but I live in europe so that would cost a fortune on fees alone already.I do have now a layerd skin routine, cleansing,lotion,serum,eyecream,and hydration. from time to time I do a 30% glycolic peel (at home).Also my hands look young,I rub the back of my hands with the remainder of the product I put on my face,have done so for years aswell and I also go down to neck and decolté with my face products.I think I was about 14 years old when I started putting a cheap cream on my face,because my skin couldnt stand the water I washed my face with,it dried it out and thats how it started.Take a look at PENN.SMITH.SKINCARE channel on you tube if looking for cheaper alternatives,she is excellent and I have some of her recommended products in my routine(such as beauty of joseon eyecream with 2% retinal,I also use REN essence with polyglutamic acid,better than hyaluronic for dry skin).I ve been taking care of my skin for over 40 years,consistency is key
Thank you Dr Karam. I love your videos and yes, you are absolutely right… I managed over the last 3 years or so, with good life hygene, active ingredients and consistency, to reverse considerably the appearence of my skin. Please continue to educate us!
Dr Karam, I really appreciate your expertise. Have you done a video on tretinoin v. Retinol v. Retinoids? It’s very confusing to consumers when there is so much information about these and which to use.
Love this channel so much!
I really like your approach to skin care. There is a lot of good old fashioned common sense involved. Staying away from the sun unless you are protected with sunscreen is huge and also a clean lifestyle. It works! Cleaning the skin first in the morning and again before you go to bed is worth it's weight in gold. My Cousin is a retired Registered Nurse from the Mediterranean and is now 74 years old. Excellent skin care routine as well as The Mediterranean diet ..,will not go outside usually without a hat. I'm not talking a tiny hat either but a substantial size like a bucket hat. Yes it can muss your hair so you need to take a comb with you. Not a big deal.
Dr AmirKaram!
your Skin is
Beautiful!! Ugh!!😩
💗✨💗
Great Review!👍🏼✨
I'm on the right track!!!!! 🙏
I get comments on how young I look all the time. I live in Australia, never really been a sun lover as such but since I was a teen in the 80’s I have worn sunscreen on my face, ALL year. And it was because I read in a teenage fashion magazine that said the sun was the biggest ager of your skin.
The Trifecta is perfect for lazy, negligent people like me. It is simple and fast. Rinse is great because it does not dry out the skin like many other cleansers.
Exactly good lifestyle is a recipe for good skin no smoke drugs and no stress is best for your skin thanks 🙏
I do great skincare and, my fascia has dropped a bit by 69😊. Frankly, the roughest years were my 50s during my menopausal transition when I still worked and had the big bucks to do Botox and dermal fillers. Now, I use my actives, at home LED, at home microneedling, sun protection and retinoids. The greatest gift has been growing up in N. Wisconsin until 23 yo.
Thanks for sharing!
Happy 2024!! ✨✨🎈🎈✨ Dr. Karam and the amazing staff , ✨✨✨🌟 Working together is success 🌟
Great advise!
I agree with this all. You can't really do one without the other. Diet is extremely important in the fact of what you eat will show up on the outside. Exercise is also important. So let's just say a full healthy regimen. And that takes discipline which is difficult for the average working person with heavy schedules. However, just like anything it takes sacrifice to get what you want. Thank you for this vid.
Many thanks Doctor
Great video that is very informative! I'm glad to hear I am doing all the right things.
Keep it up!
I’m 62 and have been following a strict skin care range from the age of 13 , always cleansed toned and moisturised day and night and just added this as I got older and I’m very pleased how my skin looks now ,yes I have a few wrinkles and fine lines but I’m ok with that also I don’t smoke or drink alcohol but do struggle with my sleep x
You ROCK!!! I use your skin care line,including the polish that I LOVE!! I will do my part and see you in the future for you to work your MAGIC 😊 your talent is a blessing to so many!!!!
Love this!! Thanks so much
I wish I could afford it 😊
@Doc, can you tell me what you think about cryo for the face? I think it might be said a little differently. I had one procedure done, and it worked wonders. I wanna do it a few more times, but just ain't too sure.
🌴🌺 thank you! I preach the same information to my clients and it’s nice to hear this coming from a medical doctor. I think a lot of women just aren’t consistent and everyone wants instant gratification which we know this is not reality. So thank you! Have a wonderful new year and I look forward to listening to you in 2024.❤🙏
Thank you for your kind words!!
Thank you, very interesting. I am doing all of it, and my skin looks great. Getting a lot of compliments. I am 49
You are a great teacher
Love Skin School Dr. Karam and to share with the young ladies and friends in my family. Thank you for a very helpful video that is so full of information. Thank you Dr. Karam and have a Great Holiday Season.
I’m an African American women in my mid 40’s who didn’t start wearing sun protection till I was in my 30’s which helped a lot. The best regimen I found was sunscreen, lots of moisture, retinol and getting a chemical peel 2x a year
Oh, shut up! You Africans never look your age, whatever you do or you don't do! ❤️
Hi, what sunscreen do you use please? I'm sure you're face/skin is very youthful🥰🖤🤎
@@flowerpower7308exactly. Africans have sunscreen built into their skin, oils as well. they don't age like we do. 😟
@@mimi831711 Not OP but I recommend Korean sunscreens for black women. Most of them feel like a moisturiser, not sticky like Western sunscreen and don’t leave a white cast behind. I’ve tried Round Lab - Birch Juice Moisturizing Sun Cream, Skin1004 Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum and Numbuzin - No.1 Clear Filter Sun Essence and liked them all.
I'm 35 and I have rosacea. I practice all of these advices since the age of 32 (wish it was earlier) but the difference is huge. I would NEVER change my skincare routine and I wear sunscreen even when I'm home in a rainy day
Explained very well 👍
Taking care of skin consistent makes a person look younger worth it confidence ♥️😄🇺🇸
Such excellent advice -thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
LoVed this!! Good job🎉
You always give such informative advice. Much appreciated.. I def need to exfoliate more. Hydration is the key. Thank You
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for video
Thank you. Dr.
Love his straight talk approach. Great info. Thank you.
Great information thank you! Can I please ask how much damage I am doing to my skin particularly around my eyes wearing goggles? I swim regularly and am cautious of the chlorine as well as the pressure I place on already sensitive skin. I am 48 and know lots of changes are coming my way.
Love Elta MD UV Elements sunscreen been using it for years!! I also use it as my foundation!😊
Hi Lisa, how's your day going with you?
Consistency in skin care is just as important what is used on the skin.
There are many skin care practices that cost very little to have more healthy-looking skin. When someone has asked me what I use on my skin, usually, they scoff at it or just flat out call me a liar about it.
It took some time for me to realize it's better if I don't tell even if/when they ask.
Enzyme peels are great. Elemis do a great one
Extremely good video! What a great doctor!
Thank you!!
Thank you!
Thank you :) Could you also make a video about the impact of essential oils on skin?
Thank you for such excellent information!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you very much !
You give great advice! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I love all your information… I am a subscriber!
Thanks for subbing!
The best advice!!!!!❤😊
You're so honest. God bless you ❤😊🙂😉
he is. the info is correct. just don't fall into the trap of buying his overpriced products. oh well, at least this is a truly valuable 'infomercial". He'd make WAY more money lowering his prices just a bit.
Love ur contents so informative❤❤
Came here from Angela Mashelle TH-cam channel. Worth the watch. Thank you
My mother is 75 and has fantastic skin. Her routine? Soap and water + drug store moisturiser. She's always hated the sun so stayed out of it as much as possible (easy in the UK, we don't get much), she's never been a smoker and didn't drink very often.
You can do more damage by putting too much junk on your face, especially creams and lotions with hormone disrupters.
Genetics also play a huge role, but yes, you're right.
