Polypeptides, a must have anti-aging ingredient, are simply fragments of proteins that trick the skin into assuming that its own proteins are being degraded. The skin in turn produces more protein (COLLAGEN) in response. Peptides pair nicely with other anti-aging ingredients. If you cannot tolerate retinol, peptides are a great substitute!
Here are the benefits of polypeptides:
🍃Stimulates collagen
🍃Improves the appearance of pores
🍃Improves skin tone and texture 🍃Improves fine lines and wrinkles 🍃Improves hydration
🍃Increases skin firmness
🍃Repairs the skin
🍃Exhibits antioxidant properties 🍃Strenghens skin barrier
Here a few Divine Derm products/offerings that contain polypeptides: •Revision Skincare Multiprotection SPF 50 •Revision Skincare Intellishade Original SPF 45 •Skinbetter Science Alpharet Overnight Cream •Skinbetter Science Alto Defense Serum •Skinbetter Interfuse Eye Treatment Cream •Hydrafusion Facial

I must admit, I was doubtful at first—a physical sunscreen (sunblock) that rubs in sheer on dark skin. Sunbetter Sunscreen Stick proved me wrong; it rubbed in completely, worked perfectly under my makeup, and did not cause my sensitive, acne prone skin to breakout !
The Sunbetter Mineral Sunscreen Stick is a broad spectrum chemical free sunscreen for all skin types. Here are some great features:
-
•Shine resistant
-
•Blends in sheer
-
•Priming effect that blurs lines and wrinkles
-
•Calming and Soothing •Protection from UVA, UVB, blue light, and infrared radiation
-
•SPF 50+
-
•100% mineral active ingredients
-
•Water-resistant (80 minutes)
-
•Environmentally safe
-
-
Sunbetter proclaims “You no longer have to make the impossible choice between efficacy and elegance when choosing a mineral sunscreen.”
-
AND I agree 100%! Schedule a consultation today if you need help selecting the right products for skin protection!

The BIOPSY... I frequently recommend and perform biopsies on patients when I need to confirm a medical diagnosis.
In the video, I am a performing a “punch biopsy” which is similar to taking a cookie cutter core of skin and closing the opening with one suture. The specimen is then sent to a lab where a pathologist confirms the diagnosis. A punch biopsy is the most common procedure performed on new skin rashes.
This condition is more than likely psoriasis, but I’d like to make sure it’s not a drug induced rash or infection as well as have a wide range of treatment options to discuss with the patient when he or she returns.
Not so bad huh?

Hyaluronic acid (HA) holds the key to smooth, flawless, and hydrated skin. When used in skincare products, hyaluronic acid hydrates and soothes dry skin.
Here are some benefits of HA: 🍃Hyaluronic acid plays well with most other ingredients and can be paired with peels, retinols, vitamins, and other acids. 🍃Hyaluronic acid works for ALL skin types as it is naturally produced by our body 🍃 Hyaluronic Acid has antioxidant properties, which means it can act like a shield against free radicals like pollution 🍃Hyauronic Acid functions as an antibacterial agent on the skin to help heal wounds like burns and skin ulcers.
When the skin is hydrated, lines and wrinkles diminish significantly; therefore, HA should be a cornerstone of any anti-aging routine.
Here are a few Divine Derm Products/Offerings that contain HA: 🍃Elta MD UV Clear Moisturizer 🍃Elta MD UV Daily Moisturizer 🍃Skinbetter Science Alpharet 🍃First Class Hydrating Facial 🍃Hydrafusion Facial

After sunscreen, this is my FAVORITE ingredient! I strongly believe EVERY one should be using a retinoid!
Retinoids (tretinoin, retinol, retinoic acid) include all chemical compounds derived from vitamin A:
Here are some benefits of retinoids: 🍃Reduces precancerous skin cells 🍃Increases skin thickness 🍃Improves pigmentary abnormalities 🍃Stimulates collagen formation 🍃Reduces acne 🍃Reduces wrinkles
All retinoids can cause dryness and irritation, therefore it’s extremely important to moisturize and start the product slowly until the skin acclimates. Retinoids are to be used as night as they may cause some sensitivity to sunlight.
Here are a few Divine Derm products that contain retinol: 🍃Revision Skincare Retinol Complete 🍃Skinbetter Science Alpharet

Is there really a difference between over the counter (OTC) cosmetic products and medical grade products?
The answer is YES!! OTC products are generally formulated to work on everyone, no matter their skin type, but medical grade products allows you to use products that are more tailored to your needs and skin type. -
-💡Medical-grade products usually have a higher concentration of active ingredients (hylauronic acid, growth factors, peptides, acids, retinols, antioxidants, etc.) and are developed to penetrate deeper levels of the skin so a little goes a LONG away. -
-
💡While you might spend more money up front on medical-grade skincare products, you will get better results and, because you need to apply less of it, the product will last longer. -
-
💡You don’t have to purchase the most expensive products either, there are plenty of reasonably priced awesome products! Consider your face and any cosmetic procedure that you get an investment, and work hard to protect it.

🦠This is PARONYCHIA...an infection of the skin around your cuticles. Symptoms include:
-Redness of the skin around the nail
-Tenderness
-Pus filled blisters
-Changes in nail shape, color or texture
-Nail detachment
------------------------------ 🗣Remember to tell your nail technician NOT to cut your cuticles and advise that they only gently trim hangnails and any loose skin that is visible. 🗣Most importantly, make sure that you witness them opening a clean pack of new supplies! 🗣The cuticle function is to protect nails and the surrounding skin from from infection. After cutting the cuticle, it’s easier for bacteria and germs to get inside. This can lead to an infection. 👩🏽⚕️This patient was treated with oral and topical antibiotics.
