Summary
In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Dr. Jessica Weiser, board-certified dermatologist and founder of Weiser Skin MD, to shed light on one of the most overlooked yet vital parts of dermatology — the scalp. Often forgotten in the broader conversation about skin health, the scalp is one of the body’s most complex ecosystems, driving everything from follicle vitality to inflammation control. “It’s not just where your hair grows,” Dr. Weiser explains. “It’s living, breathing skin with its own microbiome and metabolism.”
Dr. Weiser takes us through the evolution of scalp science, from traditional PRP injections to the groundbreaking KeraFactor® system, a peptide- and growth-factor-based approach that precisely reactivates dormant follicles and promotes angiogenesis. She also dives into the power of red-light therapy, breaking down how dual-wavelength photobiomodulation reawakens cellular energy and circulation to fuel stronger, thicker hair.
Beyond technology, Dr. Weiser emphasizes a holistic blueprint for hair longevity — addressing hormones, nutrition, stress, and scalp inflammation as interconnected variables rather than isolated issues. “The goal isn’t overnight regrowth,” she says. “It’s rebuilding the entire scalp ecosystem for long-term strength and balance.”
This conversation reframes hair care as true skin science, not surface-level maintenance. Tune in to hear how Dr. Jessica Weiser and KeraFactor are ushering in a new era of biologically intelligent scalp therapy — where light, peptides, and precision meet to redefine the future of hair health.

| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, welcome back to Skin Anarchy. Today we're diving into the topic that I think a lot of us are always wondering about and it never gets enough attention, which is the scalp. We always talk about skin health, aging, wrinkles when it comes to facial skin, but when it comes to where your hair actually grows out of, the hair that we take care of on the routine, |
| 0:21.7 | the scalp, we never get to discuss that. So joining us today is someone who is truly bridging |
| 0:26.3 | the gap between dermatologic science and true real-world innovations, Dr. Jessica Weiser, |
| 0:31.8 | she is a board-certified dermatologist and founder of Weiser Skin MD. Welcome, Dr. Weiser. I'm so excited to host you. |
| 0:38.6 | Thank you so much for having me. I'm really excited to be here and finally get to address the |
| 0:42.9 | scalp and all the attention that it really deserves. I think that we really don't think of it |
| 0:47.0 | enough as its own sort of skin component. Yeah, no, we really don't. And I'm excited to actually |
| 0:53.2 | dive in and unpack the science behind |
| 0:55.0 | KiraFactor and the KiraFlex Duo system because it's a wonderful sort of products. I can't |
| 0:59.9 | wait for our audience to discover them, but I want to actually start with you telling us a little |
| 1:04.0 | bit about yourself. Walk us down memory lane, if you don't mind, and give us a background on |
| 1:07.8 | what got you into dermatology and all the good stuff. |
| 1:11.6 | So I am originally Canadian born and has a background in biochemistry and economics. |
| 1:17.6 | I did my undergraduate training at the University of Pennsylvania. |
| 1:20.6 | I did medical school at the Montefiore-Einstein Medical Center up in the Bronx in New York. |
| 1:26.6 | And then I trained in |
| 1:28.2 | dermatology at Columbia University and I'm on faculty there as well. And I really became |
| 1:33.7 | interested in dermatology because I felt that the skin was really this very interesting portal |
| 1:38.7 | to what was happening inside the body. So much of what happens internally has external manifestations. And I think that's |
| 1:45.9 | often overlooked and really understanding the skin and how it works as its own organ system, I think, |
| 1:53.5 | is really crucial to the understanding of both the physiologic function of the skin when |
| 1:59.0 | it's normal and when it's healthy and then also to the pathologic function of the skin. it's normal and when it's healthy and then also |
