The Biggest Skincare Mistakes Women Over 40 Make | Dr. Doris Day

To purchase my new book, The Menopause Gut please visit here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/bo... I have the honor of interviewing Dr. Doris Day, a board-certified dermatologist who specializes in cosmetic and longevity dermatology. She is also a clinical professor of dermatology at NYU, recognized for her dedication and excellence in teaching, and is widely regarded as a leader in the aesthetic dermatology field. In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Day is a medical journalist and a prominent media figure. In our discussion, we examine the basics of perimenopause and menopause from a pathophysiology perspective, including the 30% decline in collagen synthesis that occurs during the first five years of menopause. We explore the skin microbiome, inflammation, and inflammaging, and why hydration, electrolytes, reducing processed sugars, and eating a nutrient-dense diet can have such a visible impact on skin health. Dr. Day also explains her approach to facial balancing and how our bones, fascia, muscles, and fat pads age. We discuss topical agents, advanced interventions including lasers, microneedling, PRF, PRP, stem cells, and growth factors, and even touch on emerging research suggesting that certain laser treatments may help reduce the risk of skin cancer. Throughout the conversation, I also openly shared what I have done to support my skin. Stay tuned for today’s fascinating conversation about menopause, skin health, collagen loss, and the evolving science behind modern aesthetic dermatology. #CynthiaThurlow #MenopauseGutHealth #GutHealthDuringMenopause # HormoneBalanceForWomen #PerimenopauseSymptomsRelief #MicrobiomeHealth #GutBrainAxis #WomensHealthOver40 #MenopauseBloatingRelief #GutHealthForWomenOver40 #HealYourGutNaturally #MenopausePodcast #HealthPodcast #AuthorInterview For more information please visit me here: https://cynthiathurlow.com/ This video is for educational and informational purposes only and solely as a self-help tool for your own use.
