4. What Inclusive Beauty Actually Looks Like with Dr. Chaneve Jeanniton, Founder of Brooklyn Face and Eye and Epi.Logic

I don't know about you, but when I think "beauty," the first thing I think of is the face. When we wake up every morning and look at the mirror, our eyes set the tone. Today's guest, Dr. Chaneve Jeanniton, is an oculofacial plastic surgeon and two time founder. First, she founded Brooklyn Face and Eye, a boutique practice that focuses on celebrating the patient's features. Talking to Dr. Chaneve about her work in plastic surgery was so refreshing because she doesn't believe in the anti-aging movement. Instead, her practice works with each patient's individual anatomy to address issues that are making the face look tired, sad, or worried. Then, Dr. Jeanniton took her passion for holistic facial refinement to a new level with Epi.Logic. She heard her patients express concerns about skincare products that weren't created with Black Women in mind. Did you know the clinical trials for your favorite skin care brand likely don't take diversity into account when gathering their participant pool? When Dr. Chaneve asked for a diverse participant pool, she was told initially told no. Thanks to her  persistence, we now have a clinical skincare brand that is actually made with all skin types in mind. You can find her products in Bergdorf Goodman, Neimann Marcus, and Saks Fifth Avenue - to name a few.Today, we're chatting about:  Why Dr. Jeanniton chose Oculofacial surgery as her expertise A few general pointers about facial plastic surgery How Epi.Logic was born as a solution to her patients' problem The dismissal Epi.Logic faced by people who didn't see a need for it What's in Dr. Chaneve Jeanniton's bag? Connect with Dr. Chaneve: - Brookyln Face and Eye- Epi.Logic- InstagramWhat's in my Bag Links: Ami ColeLaniege Lip MaskBagguAs always, you can stay up to speed on the Well Report by following me, your host, Danilae @itsdanilae on TikTok and Instagram. Don't forget to subscribe, rate and review if you enjoyed this episode.
