Healthy Skin Care with Dr. Mary Alice Mina

In this episode, Dr. Shanice Jones Cameron talks with Dr. Mary Alice Mina, a dermatologist and skincare expert. Dr. Mina shares her journey into dermatology and her passion for educating the public about skin health. She debunks the myth that sunscreen causes cancer and emphasizes the significance of prevention in skincare routines, particularly for those in their 20s. For people in their 30s and 40s, she recommends focusing on a solid skincare routine, incorporating vitamin C serum, and retinol. For women in their 40s, she suggests modifying diet and boosting collagen to prepare for the decline that comes with menopause.

Dr. Mina also discusses the different skin types and provides a simple skincare routine for each type. She also highlights the connection between skincare and overall health, including the impact of stress, inflammation, and lifestyle choices on the skin. She also shares what she does for self-care!
