SoHo Skin & Laser Dermatology

Taking part in next week? (Aug 26-Sept 3)⠀
has your Burning Man Skin Survival Guide:⠀
⠀
👒1 - Pack a broad-brimmed hat. Seek shade.

2 - Your skin is its own work of art. Protect yourself. UV Aero spray sunblock is a great physical blocker with transparent zinc oxide for hard to reach places like the legs, arms, and back. Also won’t harm the environment. It prevents the desert sun’s rays from reaching your skin.

🕶 3 - If you’re using a retinoid - like the Obagi retinol, don’t forget it makes your skin more sensitive to the sun: grab the matte sun shield.
⠀
☀️ 4 - Dry desert skin tips - add a moisturizer or primer with hyaluronic acid (like the ordinary 2% hyaluronic acid Primer) to hydrate and plump up your skin cells. The Norwegian hand creme is TSA friendly and an excellent way to moisturize dry hands. Drink plenty of water!

5 - If you see something, say something. Burn’s happen. It’s the desert. Set up a skin screening for when you return for any new skin bump or mole. Feeling tired or jet-lagged? A light chemical peel and some Botox will get your skin pumpkin-spice latte- season prepared!!

Have a happy and safe 4th of July holiday. Don't forget your SPF!

It’s Friday and it’s finally 80° out? You know what that means! Go out, celebrate, and then come home and make sure you wash your face with a mild cleanser.

Did you know you might share more with your sibling than that favorite pair of jeans your sister borrowed and never gave back? As a matter of fact, our GENES could be the reason we develop many conditions of the skin and hair, like alopecia areata, psoriasis, and even melanoma!

Happy Monday! Remember that Mondays just mean you’ve got four more days to get things done before the weekend. Stay positive!

Remember way back when dabbing toothpaste on a pesky pimple was a quick overnight fix? It turns out this worked once upon a time, due to the ingredient triclosan, but this ingredient is no longer in most toothpastes! Instead, stick to traditional acne treatments, like salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide. When those don't do the job, it may be time to visit your dermatologist!

Happy Easter and Happy Passover to you all!

It’s National Doctors’ Day! We thank each member of our amazing team, especially our doctors, for all they do.

It's Opening Day! As it get's warmer, it reminds us that Spring is here and Summer is getting closer and closer. But don't forget that even on a cloudy day, the sun's rays can be strong enough to give you a sunburn. Make sure you're wearing sunscreen every day--especially when you'll be outdoors.
