When you don’t get enough quality sleep:

•Your skin loses more water
•Looks duller
•Loses elasticity

How many hours of sleep do you get?

I was a shy and awkward teen and young adult. I was envious of those who were naturally at ease. Decades later, I’m finally more confident. Definitely a late bloomer!

What helped the most was learning to say “yes” to opportunities that made me nervous. Over time, I learned that confidence is something you can practice.

Even now, I still get nervous sometimes. But I think of it as energizing; it’s no longer terrifying.

What’s something you do now that your younger self would be amazed by?

Yes, I test everything on myself.

Before I bring a treatment into the office, I want to understand the experience firsthand, what it feels like, what I notice, and whether I believe the results are worth it.

That’s part of how I decide what earns a place in my practice.

What treatment would you want me to test on myself next?

I recently spoke with about one of beauty’s emerging ingredients: PDRN.

From why I see PDRN as a promising regenerative ingredient rather than a miracle ingredient to how it differs from peptides, we discussed what it can realistically do for skin—and where the science still has room to evolve.

A special thanks to the Forbes team for the thoughtful conversation. Read the full article through the link in my Stories.

Mom tried to teach me how to massage my face when I was a teen. Of course, I didn’t listen.

Instead, I became a dermatologist.

After all these years of studying skin, I’m finally realizing that Mom may have been onto something. I never had the patience for a daily facial massage, but lately I feel like I could use the help.

So at 84, Mom is teaching me her technique all over again, and I love setting aside a few minutes every night just for me.

Comment DRWU and I’ll share a breakdown of Mom’s exact routine.

Even dermatologists get hair thinning.

When I noticed clumps of hair in the shower drain, I checked the same factors I look for in my patients, including: hormones, thyroid, iron, deficiencies and toxicities.

After correcting a severe iron deficiency, I also started low-dose oral minoxidil, which works by prolonging the hair growth phase. Three months later, I’m finally seeing new hair growth (as well as peach fuzz on my upper lip).

It’s a prescription pill with side effects that can include low blood pressure and hypertrichosis (excess hair growth in other areas), so if you’re considering it, be sure to discuss with a dermatologist experienced in hair loss therapies. Comment HAIR for the exact blood tests I ordered.

I’ve injected filler since 1996 and skin boosters since 2018. Every year I travel to Europe and Asia to work with physicians using products and techniques we won't have in the U.S. for years.

What I've learned after all these years is that technique can matter as much as—or more than—the product.

Each booster requires a different depth, dose, spacing, and injection pattern. And I would never use the same technique under the eyes that I use on the cheeks or neck.

Before anyone injects you, ask: Which product? Why ? If they can’t answer clearly, maybe it's time for another opinion.

Save this before your next appointment—and tell me which area you want me to break down next: under-eyes, face, or neck?

Well, Dad went viral.

His Reel just passed 184K views, and this week Daily Mail shared his very un-biohacker approach to aging well: stairs, purpose, dancing with Mom, and stopping before he’s full.

What moved me most is reading your stories about your own parents and grandparents.

I think that’s why this struck such a nerve. Aging well isn’t always a complicated protocol. Sometimes it’s a lifetime of ordinary habits.

Meanwhile, Dad is entirely unimpressed by his new fame.

Coming up: Mom at 84, showing me the family beauty secret she’s been nagging me to do since I was a teenager.

When I broke three ribs this Spring, I couldn’t do my usual workouts.

Wall sits became a simple way to maintain strength between patients without putting additional strain on my ribs.

I learned that staying strong isn’t always about doing more. Sometimes, it’s about finding new ways to keep moving when life changes.

What’s your go-to way to stay strong?

Is Volufiline really filler in a bottle?

Early lab research shows it may influence how fat cells store lipids, but there’s a big difference between what happens in a lab and what happens when you apply under your eyes.

Could it make skin look a little more plump? Possibly. Can it replace injectable filler? Not based on the evidence we have today.

Drop your skincare ingredient questions below and I’ll share what the science actually says.
