Episode Details

In this skincare Q and A, dermatologist Dr. Dray answers audience questions about retinoids, retinaldehyde, adapinoid, HPR, vitamin C derivatives, collagen production, sunscreen expiration, seborrheic dermatitis, Volufine, facial antiperspirants, skin tags, adapalene, LED masks for acne, makeup expiration, and deodorant options for sensitive skin.

Dr. Dray also discusses the claims surrounding so-called dual retinoid products, including retinaldehyde combined with adapinoid or hydroxypinacolone retinoate (HPR), and explains what the research actually supports about these cosmetic retinoid alternatives.

Other topics include whether THD ascorbate and ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate can build collagen like topical ascorbic acid, whether Centella asiatica enhances collagen production, how to interpret sunscreen expiration dates, whether long-term doxycycline can cause seborrheic dermatitis, and whether topical products such as Volufine can actually restore lost facial volume.

For acne, Dr. Dray explains the evidence behind blue and red LED light therapy, and discusses why Epiduo may or may not make sense for anti-aging depending on whether acne treatment is also needed.

The video also covers adapalene and facial fat loss, expired makeup, facial and scalp antiperspirants, and alternatives for people who develop irritation from aluminum-containing antiperspirants.
