These sessions are better than Netflix. I can’t tell you how much I enjoy just listening / watching, and how grateful I am that you take time to do this. It reminds me grad school, just taking in knowledge from an expert and learning. It’s so enriching.
Thank you for all the information you share. Not all of us have access to a dermatologist, but do want to know what is beneficial for us and what is ineffective, or even harmful despite the hype. Your channel is my go to.
Very informative but entertaining. Loved when you talked about your friendship with Dr.Shah. You guys are super supportive of each other. Reminds me of my BFF and me. If Dr.Shah starts a skincare line, I would be 1st in line. Thanks Dr.Maxfield!
About the skincare lines. I’m always disappointed that they rarely do a sunscreen. I think I heard that it’s hard and has a ton of regulations but as important as it is and the lack there of good ones (especially for dark skin, and especially, especially tinted or mineral for dark skin). It’s definitely a huge space for better options at least in the US I think.
Hello Dr Maxfield ! Can you tell if tea tree oil is safe to use during pregnancy? And also if you can tell more or it will be the best if you both with Dr.Shah, make a video with tips for skincare and products for acne and other bacterial conditions during pregnancy ?🙌
LOVING the live session! Let's get this out there - facial hair YES! The best moisturizer to use at night with my Differin. I got a sample of ZO growth factor - huge mistake, I adore it... I missed you today - but next friday I will not! Love your content!
Hey Doc, your next q and a could you talk about the recent development / research on sunscreen being toxic after a preiod of sun exposure? I live in the Whitsundays, Australia. Where we use alot of sunscreen. Sharks arent bad here in paradise 🙂 its the irukandji jellyfish or the salt water croc you need to be mindful of. Some sharks are tagged and can be tracked. Not that it makes a difference haha.
love the livestreams!! would you ever think about making a podcast of them? I usually catch them later and just listen on my phone, so an audio version would help save my phone battery lol
Dr. Max, please come back to California..Norther Cal, Sacramento and for UC-Davis Med Center. That would be aweome. lol...just a thought. Thanks for all your time and help. :)
Hello, thanks for all the time you give to your TH-cam channel. In what cases is double cleansing unecessary? I hate double cleansing but feel guilty when I don’t! I don’t wear makeup just sunscreen.
If your sunscreen is waterproof or if you use a lot it is better to double cleanse. You could try using micellair water if you dislike the oily feeling of balm cleansers.
I would personally aim to use your retinol as much as you can tolerate ( aim for 5x a week ) could use a aha/bha on the alternative nights I’d love to know what actives your using and prahaps I could help more?? 😊
I don’t have “sensitive skin” but using Retin A (Rx) was “too much” if I tried using it multiple days in a row. So now, I use it every other day (so about 3x week) and I use a compatible moisturizer on top. On the “other” nights, I use CeraVe moisturizing cream (big jar from Sams, Costco or Walmart). I use an eye cream too. In the mornings, I use a VitaC cream,, and sunscreen. I don’t use an eye cream in the morning if ill be wearing mascara as it causes “panda eyes”.
Hey guys so I currently alternate between a retinol and a bha every other night but I would like to incorporate an aha as well. I don’t want to over do it because I’m at a sweet spot with theses two.
Although I don't really have sensitive skin, I figured out this week that The Ordinary Argireline makes me break out -- bummer! For a couple of weeks, every place I put it, the next day I had a deep zit. As soon as I stopped using it, no new ones appeared and the existing ones are clearing up. Weird? I would really like to use this. Thanks for all you do!
Hi!!! First of all you guys rock. I follow your accounts and taken your advice and it has worked wonders. I do have a question. I have a medium skin color. And I need a tinted sunscreen that can act a foundation. I am 53 but I live at the beach in nc. What are your recommendations and what do you think on color science products? Thank you
That's a good point. I was thinking the same thing when Dr Maxfield was talking about green tea. I have green tea at home and was just standing there staring at it wondering if I should put it on my face LOL
In your practice, how often do you use lasers/IPL to treat things like Rosacea, Poikiloderma, or for anti-aging? If applying heat to the skin causes redness, increase aging and destroys collagen.. how is the heat from BBL or IPL or even lasers for that matter beneficial and actually treats skin conditions? I understand that these devices penetrate further into the skin to targeted areas, but they still cause surface heat and can actually cause burns... Confusing how this actually works if a simple hair dryer blown on your face can cause damage but a laser heat is beneficial?
Would love to see a video on treating and anti-aging using lasers and other things like IPL/BBL and where they should fit in with routine skin care...thanks!!
An ancient pharmacist - seriously, the lady must have been 90 or so - told me once that tea tree oil would repel head lice. I didn't try it, because I was big into science based medicine. My kid was in school and lice were a big problem at that school. Maybe I should have tried it, because he did catch them, and it was one of the worst experience of my entire life as a parent.
There was a lice outbreak in my daughter’s school and my daughter’s teacher was spraying a tincture of tea tree on their hair and her charges did not get lice. My daughter has super sensitive skin and is eczema prone and she was fine. Super anecdotal but some people just seem to know how to get results through determination.
My husband has something on his back that looks like blackhead but its deep and when i try to take it out its so hard,im scared that its some skin cancer as i saw something similar on video on your channel
Tinted sunscreen contains iron oxides that prevent not only from UVA and UVB, but from the blue light from the sun as well. It also helps to even out the skin tone. It is highly recommended for people with melasma and hyperpigmentation.
you could look into niacinamide, alpha arbutin and/or tranexamic acid for acne scars and hyperpigmentation. You don't purge with them en they are generally well tolerated by sensitive skin. But if you do use them for the first time it still is a good idea to patch test. Hope this helps :)
@@kategolden8840 I have already use niacinamide for 2 month and have used inkey retinol , ordinary retinol squalane , now using ordinary retinol 2%. And using Paula's choice BHA exfoliant , and also using pixi vitamin C, and now starting klair vitamin C. Some time use ordinary glycolic acid.
While it cannot be conclusively said to be "as effective as tretinoin", studies do show that adapalene certainly can improve fine lines and wrinkles (as well other signs of photoaging). Check out these two studies, for instance (available at pubmed): Bagatin E, Gonçalves HS, Sato M, Almeida LMC, Miot HA. *Comparable efficacy of adapalene 0.3% gel and tretinoin 0.05% cream as treatment for cutaneous photoaging* . Eur J Dermatol. 2018 Jun 1;28(3):343-350. Herane MI, Orlandi C, Zegpi E, Valdés P, Ancić X. *Clinical efficacy of adapalene (differin) 0.3% gel in Chilean women with cutaneous photoaging* . J Dermatolog Treat. 2012 Feb;23(1):57-64.

Can’t say enough about Tea Tree oil 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ use daily
Dr. Maxfield you are so cute and very interested with all the information. Lol from London 💝💝👍👍
The advice about enjoying the journey really resonated

If your sunscreen is waterproof or if you use a lot it is better to double cleanse. You could try using micellair water if you dislike the oily feeling of balm cleansers.
I do it for my oily skin. I think they also had another video actually suggesting double cleanse for oily skin.
I get acne-like bumps from bobby-pins which is annoying and I think it’s a sensitivity.
Is chemical peeling a good skin treatment to aging skin? Will it caused skin barrier damage?
What is a good way to interchange your actives when having retinol in your routine during the week.
Alternate nights
I would personally aim to use your retinol as much as you can tolerate ( aim for 5x a week ) could use a aha/bha on the alternative nights
I’d love to know what actives your using and prahaps I could help more?? 😊

@@adriannajauregui8816 hey why do you want to introduce AHA?
I had a terrible reaction to Tea tree oil
Can you also discuss more about polymorphic light eruption? Does it ever go away considering it is apparently an autoimmune disease?

Has anyone used straight up green tea that they drink on their face as a toner? I wonder if I can make something at home that’s effective

Is there a difference in treatment between melasma and idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis?
Why is is tinted sunscreen better than the thick white stuff?
