Is skincare just about looking good—or is there more to it?

Dr. Lian Mack (@glamgerm) board-certified dermatologist, medical director and founder of GlamDerm, joins Give Good Face with Dr. Anthony Rossi to weigh in on the ever-evolving world of dermatology, sharing their personal journeys, the power of experience in practice, and the shift toward natural aesthetic treatments. They dive into the current trends in patient preferences for non-invasive treatments, the innovative use of bio-stimulatory fillers, and the balance between surgical and non-surgical interventions in aging. They also highlight the significance of educating the younger generation about skincare, particularly the importance of sunscreen.

From the rise of bio-stimulatory fillers to the impact of social media on beauty standards, they explore the latest trends, the challenges of treating melasma, and why saying “no” to patients can sometimes be the best approach. Plus, a look at The Substance and its thought-provoking take on society’s obsession with youth.
