Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I talk with the wonderful Jessi Slavich of Vena Cava Skin Therapy, one of the most intuitive and anatomy informed holistic aestheticians I know. Jessi works at the intersection of skin, stress, and the nervous system, helping clients age well without aggressive treatments or trends.We discuss why the industry still misunderstands the microbiome, how stress shapes the way we age, and why building long term relationships between practitioner and client matters more than any device. Jessi also shares her journey into somatic skincare, her surprising red flags when evaluating brands, and what she believes clients should ask before choosing a skincare line or practitioner. This is a deeply thoughtful conversation filled with science, humor and real world guidance for anyone who wants healthier skin and a healthier relationship with beauty.Episode resources:Read NY Times article with Jessi: Can Cosmetic Acupuncture Be the New Botox?Learn more from the previous episodes:The Value of a Skin Professional with Sarah DrewRed Carpet Ready Skin: What You Can Do at HomeVitamins in Skincare: What Works, What Doesn’t & What’s Coming NextProfessional Skincare: How Beauticians Choose BrandsYour Skin’s Hidden Ecosystem: Why the Microbiome Matters More Than You ThinkConnect with us:Vena Cava Skin Therapy WebsiteVena Cava InstagramMeder by Dr. Tiina MederMeder Beauty InstagramMeder Beauty FacebookMeder Beauty TikTokMeder Beauty LinkedInListen to the Meder Beauty Podcast on Apple Podcasts
