We spend thousands on skincare products, supplements, and treatments, but how much of it is backed by science? In this episode, dermatologist ‪@DrGeoffreyVaz‬ and I separate facts from myths. We discuss what really causes skin aging, whether collagen supplements actually work, the truth about Botox and fillers, Ozempic face, face yoga, sunscreen, retinol, and the biggest skincare mistakes people make. We also explore how lifestyle, diet, stress, and weight loss affect your skin. If you want healthier, younger-looking skin and evidence-based advice instead of social media trends, this episode is for you.
