Episode Details

In this skincare Q and A, dermatologist Dr. Dray answers questions from followers about salicylic acid cleansers, Cool Peel CO₂ laser treatments, sunscreen getting in the eyes, chalazion, sebaceous hyperplasia, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, collagen-boosting skincare, and eczema bumps.

Dr. Dray discusses whether salicylic acid cleansers can actually work despite being rinsed off, what to know about Cool Peel laser treatments compared with IPL, why sunscreen can be particularly uncomfortable when it gets into the eyes, and whether an eye examination could cause a long-standing chalazion to resolve.

She also explains why topical retinoids may not be particularly effective for removing sebaceous hyperplasia, what ingredients may help dark spots left behind after irritation, whether it is possible to "max out" the collagen-boosting benefits of skincare ingredients, and why some people with eczema develop small, fluid-filled bumps on their skin.

Salicylic acid is an established acne ingredient and can be effective in cleanser formulations, although leave-on products may provide a stronger or more prolonged exposure.

For sunscreen around the eyes, the American Academy of Dermatology specifically recommends sunscreen sticks as an option because they are less likely to drip into the eyes.
