The Skincarma Pod | Ep. 28: Questions I’ve Always Wanted to Ask a Derm with Board Certified Dermatologist Dr. Jen Haley

In this episode of the Skincarma Pod, Carmine welcomes back Dr. Jen Haley, a board-certified dermatologist and his OG guest, to discuss essential skincare practices from the perspective of a dermatologist and debunk common myths about skincare and the basic needs of your skin. They explore the importance of sunscreen, must-have skincare ingredients, and budget-friendly product options. Dr. Jen shares her insights on trends to avoid, such as derma rollers, and trends that may be worth the effort – like LED light therapy and skin cycling. The conversation also touches on the role of cellular senescence on skin aging and the relationship between skin health and overall well-being. Carmine and Dr. Jen delve into the complexities of skincare, discussing the impact of trends, the importance of understanding your individual skin needs, and the significance of a consistent skincare routine.
