Summary

This week on The Dr. Youn Show, Dr. Anthony Youn is joined by dermatologist Dr. Emily Levin for a special “Ask the Dermatologist” episode, answering real listener questions about the most common, and most frustrating, skin concerns people deal with every day. They break down everything from seborrheic dermatitis, cystic acne, rosacea, melasma, keloids, KP (“chicken skin”), stretch marks, and spider veins to GLP-1 related skin changes, hair loss, sunscreen, Korean skincare, and whether red light therapy can worsen melasma. They also discuss Accutane myths, the truth about collagen loss during weight loss, scar treatments that actually work, and why some viral skincare trends may be doing more harm than good. Plus, Dr. Levin shares her honest thoughts on cosmetic treatments, laser therapy, pregnancy-related skin changes, eczema triggers, and the biggest misconceptions people have about dermatology and anti-aging. 🔗 Links and Resources:→ Clean your home with human and pet-safe products!
