Skin Longevity, HRT & Anti-Aging Science with Dr. Hillary Lin

What does longevity medicine have to do with your skin? Everything, according to Dr. Hillary Lin — Stanford-trained internist, longevity expert, and founder of CareCorps. In this episode of the Science of Skin podcast, Dr. Patti Farris sits down with Dr. Lin to explore the powerful connection between systemic health and skin aging. Together they break down the science behind cellular senescence, oxidative stress, and the hallmarks of aging — and what they mean for your skin from the inside out. They cut through the noise on trending anti-aging supplements like rapamycin, NAD precursors, urolithin A, peptides, and creatine, separating evidence-backed strategies from longevity washing. Dr. Lin also shares her expert take on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and estrogen's critical role in collagen production, skin hydration, and elasticity during perimenopause and menopause.
