Doctor’s Guide to Healthy Fats for Your Skin
from The Skin Report · host Dr. Simran Sethi
We often consider fats to be dangerous for our physical health. However, there are healthy fats that, when used appropriately, can positively impact the health and appearance of our skin!In this episode, host Dr. Sethi discusses how people can apply healthy fats within their dietary habits and topical skincare routines to boost the health and radiance of their skin. She teaches listeners about the fats that are good for the skin when included in our diet or applied directly to the skin. Incorporating lipids within our skincare in the form of healthy skin oils can penetrate the skin’s surface and deliver nourishment deep within its layers. At the same time, healthy dietary fats like unsaturated fats can enable our bodies to enhance our skin’s health. Of course, not all fats are healthy, and this episode will help you to choose the right fats to nourish and replenish your skin!As the founder of RenewMD Beauty Medical Spas and a woman of color, Dr. Sethi is dedicated to spreading science-backed skincare information on The Skin Report.
