It seems like almost every month a new “miracle” treatment with a new, easy, no surgery, hand held device that can fix everything pops up. We all know to be...
I’m posting again on this because it’s summer, and more questions are coming in from patients about this. The chest area IS different. It’s skin is thinner than the face,...
Again… you all ask the best questions! First, your clinic should have given you both expectations and written instructions for your skincare for the first 2-4 weeks after your laser...
Thank you for asking this. One out of five women will develop breast cancer in this country. And many require chemotherapy. Not to mention other types of cancer. I can’t...

One of the best investments in your skin is your daily skincare. Why? Because you can prevent many problems with blotchy skin color, lack of glow, texture, some types of acne, and fine lines with good skincare products. You can also correct some of these problems with effective skincare products. Great skincare is often more expensive because quality ingredients are expensive. Some companies spend on research/development which benefits all of us and adds to the cost. Are they worth it? In general - yes! I have handpicked some of what I consider to be the best skin care products, and offer them for sale on SkinTour's shop. This is based on my team and I's testing and research at our clinic. Many of the products are in my own regimen. What could be better than using skin care products a dermatologist uses?!
