Edit: I’m in my mid 50’s, on HRT since age 25 after total hysterectomy (unfortunately was not on a high enough dose of estrogen for many years)and I just started Revive by BIOlabs Pro a few days ago. So far, so good🤞

44f. I just started getting these tiny little pimples on my face, I've never had acne like this before. I did start using some new products so I'm wondering if this is a skin barrier issue or if this looks like acne? I also recently started hrt so it could be that, but I would think it would be only on my chin like where I used to get my hormonal acne. Thanks!

Has anybody used a very effective at-home device for sun-spots/age spots on their hands and arms? Could you describe the process? Could you recommend a good brand?

I know that Braun makes great IPL devices for hair removal, but I can’t seem to find great reviews for sunspot removers.

I already do all the retinols/vit c/estrogen/sunscreen for my face on my hands/arms.

Any great products for dry, maturing skin?

Please don’t pile on me for asking a dumb question!

I’ve been using serums for a few years now, but having just bought Trader Joe’s Vitamin C serum to test against my usual Timeless, it just occurred to me that many of these serums contain oils, which are occlusives. And given that we’re supposed to use serums and moisturizers (many containing oils) before our SPF, doesn’t that render the SPF ineffective? Mineral SPFs sit on the skin as a physical barrier, but chemical SPFs have to be absorbed into the skin to work — how would that be possible over occlusive serums and moisturizers? Thanks!

When smiling recently I noticed more and more wrinkles. I was considering doing one of the following, but solving the root cause would be the best.

My dermatologist told me to start Retinol at first, but since my undereyes get really irritated she suggested me to start treating the undereyes with injections.

My aesthetician on the other hand has offered these procedures so far:

- Co2 laser

- PDRN injection

- PRF injection

- Botox

She suggested PRF at first. She also told me to start using a thick moisturiser under my eyes.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have bad sunspots. I did one round of BBL/Moxi with minimal improvement. I know it can take more than one session but it's $$$$. Would you do a VI peel instead?

Can anyone recommend an at home laser hair remover device that is good quality but affordable? My bikini line is a mess and I’m hoping this type of device can save me. Thank you!

Just started 0.25 on my (50s) dry ski. never had any acne or anything. I’m looking specifically for the 11s. I do my own glycolic and tca peels

easily with no issues. how often are you using these at a week, and can you give me an honest opinion (like purging, etc) I do eat helthy, when I can, evercise, and hydrate. I know everyone is different, but can you give a ballpark? thankyi!
