If you are cursed with rush than you shall stay online and chat with your local dermatologist about a prescrprtion regarding rush. Than you will have a online recipe but you still need to go at farmacy and pay for medicine because is not free unless the online local demnts association does not donate you to you for free@@Docmain3

8:10 interestingly, this is how laser tattoo removal works. the laser targets the ink deposits and breaks them down into smaller chunks so that your body’s white blood cells can effectively metabolize them and flush them out of the body. its why people report being tired after a removal session, your body is reacting to the ink the same way it would an infection

Fun fact on fingerprints: We dont actually know if fingerprints are unique. They *seem* to be unique, but no one has done a large enough analysis to be scientifically certain in part because the analysis has been extremely expensive. There are some studies proposed or going on to have AI review very large sets (millions or even tens of millions) to try to quantify the uniqueness, but it will be a while before even those are complete, and there may still be questions until we can review hundreds of millions of fingerprints in a single study. That raises privacy and data control concerns, though, and it may be difficult or even impossible to collect enough data to do that.

Regarding the skin's microbiome... I read in a baby book that one of the advantages to breastfeeding is that your baby is constantly touching your bare skin. Contact with your skin's microbiome helps her to build up her microbiome and immune system. So if you can't breastfeed, make sure your baby gets plenty of contact with your skin.

he's very good at explaining stuff at an easy to understand level. love this doctor!

dont talk about my cotton candy chapstick shes mine and im hers

Ladies AND GENTLEMEN (yes, both) I highly recommend getting satin/silk bedsheets/pillowcases. They hold less bacteria and more gentle on skin. This will help prevent frizzy hair and breakage as well as preventing acne too! Still want to change out your sheets as often as you can!

the one about blushing and helping us survive: My theory (I am a random heath enthusiast with no medical background, just a random guy) is that when you're blushing, it's usually because of an intense emotional reaction which your body interperets as "potential threat" and may need to run and get outta there, so it increases your blood flow rapidly

I was about to comment how he seems to genuinely enjoy helping everyone get better skin 😂❤

I can watch him do this all day 😍

The tattoo one is so mind blowing to me. I watched an entirely other video on this before and it’s our immune system that goes in to grab on to the ink and holds it in place. The cells or whatever that go in to hold on to it though eventually die, other cells have to rush in to grab it again, and that’s why tattoos gets blurry over time. 😮

My BIL insisted that chapstick was a scam and that it's designed to provide temporary relief but later flake your lips so you apply it more. I asked him to tell me in more detail what it feels like and what it does, he proceeded to describe exactly what it's like to be allergic to your chapstick.

Wow I love how Dr Shah dodged that multi step routine question 😅😅

he looks like a dermatologist

Recent research suggests that tattoo ink particles are taken up by dermal macrophages, but these macrophages are stationary so the ink doesn't move. This isolates the ink particles and reduces irritation. When the macrophages die, the ink particles are released and then recaptured by other dermal macrophages. This cycle continues on for as long as the skin is alive. Some of the ink particles are broken down over time, accounting for tattoos lightening somewhat as the skin ages, but for the most part, it stays in place. See Baranska, et al., in 2018 in the Journal of Experimental Medicine.

Another fun fact about hair: Almost everyone has around the same amount of hair and humans also have almost the same amount of hair follicles as other primates. It's just that "hairless" people have very fine, peach-fuzz-like hair, while "hairier" people (and other primates) develop that same fine hair into coarser, darker, and longer body hair due to their follicles being more sensitive to specific hormones (mostly androgen).

Wow never thought of the hot water vs body oil

Appreciate you Dr Shah ❤

i do agree with lipbalm. When I used lipbalm with flavor, I dont realised I licked my lips again and again. I re-applied more often but still get dry lips. I thought the ingredients of flavor made my lips dry, then I tried vaseline. Viola, it worked well!

avoid lip balms all together, Lip balms containing ingredients like phenol, menthol and salicylic acid actually make your lips drier.

@singingfan

2 ай бұрын

Instead, make sure you’re drinking plenty of water so as to not be dehydrated. Also, if needed you can use Vaseline to protect against sunburn or windburn etc in very cold temperatures.

i think that blushing is part of a flight response, where blood circulation to the muscles is increased, maybe it's a side effect of that

I feel like theres something in chapstick that works well but also dries your lips back out. I NEVER used chapstick until my first winter when i was stationed in upstate NY. That winter my lips got so dry i started using chapstick. And now to this day 20 years later i carry a stick with me every single day. Cannot go a day without it. And ive tried them all, flavored or not.

I'm absolutely a lifetime Chap Stick addict

Oh shoot. My worlds have collided.

You can absolutely be addicted to lip balm, physically, and not just in a cycle of using it making you need it. I had Jaw surgery as a teenager that required me to have my jaw wired shut for six weeks. That meant that I couldn’t lick my lips at all, and I started to use Carmex. I didn’t really use lip balm of any sort much before that, but after those six weeks, I tried to stop using the Carmex, and my lips were in physical pain when it wore off. My guess is I got addicted to either the menthol or camphor in it. Over the years, I’ve pared down, and while I still use Carmex, I can go much longer between applications (a couple of hours even, sometimes), and my lips just feel dry when it wears off, not painful. Plus side is I haven’t had chapped lips in 25 years…

@shannonm8512

2 ай бұрын

That would go along with what he said about ingredients like menthol, fragrance etc causing irritation and then creating that cycle of needing to reapply. I am pretty sure Carmex in particular also contains salicylic acid so it’s not just causing irritation with the menthol but the exfoliant could be contributing as well. You could try switching to plain Vaseline, that should help eliminate the irritation and break the cycle of dryness when it wears off.

@andij605

Or switch to something like shea butter or cacao butter or even olive oil or literally anything else...

i don’t know if anyone will read this but i use to be addicted to lip balm for so many years. i would always need to reapply it. one day i switched to using rimmel clear lip gloss and the difference is night and day. i don’t need to reapply all the time and my lips are never dry. once in a while i will use a lip balm if i don’t have my rlg and ten minutes later my lips are chapped. it really is amazing and i have been using it for years! i always order more when it gets low and i’m not even the kind of girl who would use lip gloss. if you have this issue with lip balm please try this!

I have dry, sensitive skin and a history of eczema. Back in the early 80s my grandma gave me a small bottle of glycerin to add to my lotion and vaseline. A quarter-size dollop of glycerin in vaseline every day and after bathing will make a world of difference. I would slather my shins in corhuskers and Crisco because my skin would scale like a fish. The skin is an organ and when it is dry, itchy, scaly and painful it makes you feel bad all over. And it's embarrassing, especially when you're a teen.

Thank you, doctor, for answering these questions! So many of them, I, too, have wondered about. The blackhead question, tattoo not wearing off, stretch marks, and those face LED masks.

1:27 I actually don’t have that experience with chapstick. For me, I only really need chapstick if I talk a lot to someone, or exercise and breathe heavy. Because I’m breathing more through my mouth and dries out my lips

hm i'm not sure if you're actually use a tool to measure that, but personally usually, i only ask google the uv index at that moment where i'm at. and for uv index it only measures the risk of getting sunburn, so i assume it only takes into account the UV-B. But not the UV-A, which causes aging. And iirc, UV-A is harder to measure anyway. that said, if the uv index is in green, i don't put on sunscreen either. so i guess you're the one who could judge it yourself.

That revelation about chapstick is kind of a big deal for me. I loved chapstick as a kid, but I noticed that the more consistently I used it, the worse my lips would feel, and I’d have to apply it more and more. Eventually I stopped using it altogether because I decided it just wasn’t for me. Now that you explain it to me as an adult, I wonder if because I was probably given flavored chapstick, that was encouraging me to lick it and apply it more often due to the flavor and sensation. Makes me want to finally try chapstick again so many years later.

No. Sunscreen isn't a perfect shield even at spf 100. You will still get vitamin d with the small amount that passes through. Most sunscreen users don't apply enough and regularly throughout the day anyway.

Saw it was Dr Shah, so I clicked. No other reason. I think this only came up in my feed BECAUSE it was Dr Shah 😂

Interesting. Some additional questions: For wrinkles, pregnant or ppl losing weight don't get any wrinkles bc the body senses the new weight and grows around it accordingly. So I guess wrinkles might be when the skin organ's set size and shape reduces so that the skin doesn't adapt to its smaller size as we age, since we lose muscle and collagen...but I still don't understand how that can be. Since the skin already adapts to different sizes. I guess I answered my own question. That we need retinol to encourage new skin cell growth to the new aged body shape that we have. 😢 Confirmation? Thoughts? So my question would be, why do we not get wrinkles when we lose weight and yet when we age we do get wrinkles and need chemicals to fix our skin around our body? Why can't the body adapt? Another question: I was told by my physiotherapist that female and male skin have different thicknesses in our epidermis layer. I'd love the in-depth statistic on this and a diagram of how that is. The video does share the face having different number (4) layers as opposed to hands and thicker wear areas of our body (5 layers). I would love to know the distribution of layers and an explanation of why that is. 😊 This video is fascinating!

That last answer will change, depending on where you are and climate change. Summers will become dryer and winter wetter where I am.

The mites!!!!

I'm no expert but I'd say blushing in general is kind of a fight or flight response, like stress-sweating
