I stopped watching paid ad videos regarding skincare and focus on watching your videos doc ❤️❤️ 1. I’m learning 2. I can give my skin what it really needs ❤️❤️ very well explained doc. I love all your videos. Watching you talk is so calming ❤️❤️
Halos lahat ng videos na i-like ko na at nakapag subscribed na ako. 7.7K this year of 2020 I am waiting na mag grow pa itong channel mo doc. I like it, super like it. Free consultation and easy access pa.
I just stumbled upon a few of your videos and am looking forward to watching more. I was wondering if you could put the used/recommended products on the description :D
For this video I used the ff: (Physical exfoliants) ZO exfoliating polish (magnesium crystals) Easydew gentle peeling gel (cellulose) (Chemical exfoliants) Glowbiotics refining layering solution ZO Complexion renewal pads But I also occasionally use the ff: Peter thomas roth exfoliating super peel Neostrata smooth surface glycolic peel pads Neogen green tee gentle gauze peeling pads Snail white AHA/BHA toner Pixi glow tonic
Thanks to Jan Angelo dahil he led me to a board-certified derm na may content sa yt. Tanong ko lang po doc, anong recommend nyong exfoliant and moisturizer to treat dark inner thighs?
Hi Dr Gaile, Thank for this video contents you are doing, this is helps. I have one question for you I have a sensitive skin & new for exfoliation & need suggestion for the good recommendation.
Thank you too! If you want to exfoiate but have sensitive skin id suggest you go for gentle chemical exfoliation using PHAs or lactic acid in toner form in low concentration
@@irenegaile Okay thank you! Though currently - I'm using Cetaphil as my cleanser, do I double cleanse everyday? Or how often should I use the salicylic cleanser?
Hi Doc! Thank you for this video I learned a lot. But I have a question, I recently tried using bha toners but I think it caused me pimples and small bumps causing my skin to have texture which I don’t have before. The bha that I’m using claim to be for everyday use (the other one is almost water based) and has 0.5% bha. What should I do to clear up my skin? Should I stop using it or just minimize the no. of times I’m using it? I have oily and sensitive skin btw. I hope you can answer my question doc. Thank you! ☺️❤️
Wendy Nual hello! BHA 0.5% is very low concentration, what are the other ingredients of the toner? If you are experiencing rednessC itchiness, burning sensation, i suggest you discontinue everything and let your skin recover. If none of these, then the bumps on your skin could be comedones or small acne lesions - i suggest you consult if you want to know for sure. But for now try: 1. Double cleansing at night 2. Exfoliating with higher concentration chemical exfoliants (5-10%) 1-2x a week Try for 1-2 weeks. If your condition worsens or doesn’t improve, i suggest you see a dermatologist even just for online consultation:)
Hi Alfie! Thank you! :) Depends on the percentage. Normally AHA toners with 5-8% can be used daily. Peeling pads or solutions with 10% up can be used 1-3x a week depending on your skin type. The oilier the skin the more often u can peel. :)
I just realized na I’m not using exfoliators for a very long time. And planning to buy AHA toner after watching this ❤️ is cetaphil daily exfoliating cleanser a physical exfoliator?
Hi, doc! Do you mind if I'll ask for the brand name of the peeling pads you use? I'm 41 yrs old and with DRY skin type, will it work for me? Many thanks in advance.
Hi doc, hello po! Im done with my follow up consultation. My derma told me to continue my skin regimen such as:cetophil ckeanser (Pink), skinoren, and sunblich, in the evening Cetaphil cleanser, klenzit twice a week, avene if may irritation and oxecure. I've been using for 1 months and really effective. I even asked my derma how to have a glowing skin since hindi naman pumuputi ang face ko due to age na rin 45 yrs. Old. I was advise to undergo chemical peeling. Is there any alternative cream for it? Thank you so much and will continue to support your clog doc.
Since you already have a dermatologist, it would be best to ask him/her about your options :) unethical for me to meddle with his/her management kc. thank you for supporting my channel :)

Hello po Dr. Gaille, first of all I'm so glad na may filipino dermatologist in YT na. Combination po skin type ko and this pandemic po nagka pimples yung forehead ko and may dalawang pimple scar sa cheeks ko. I have blackheads on my nose too and, oh yeah, dark undereyes. What do I do po? I've been using celeteque facial wash every day. I'm thinking of using a chemical exfoliant pero ano pung recommend nyong type?
Thank you! Please check my video on ingredients that can help with mild acne: ruclips.net/video/PNbsI2J0af0/видео.html. Also the one on oily skin ingredients, baka makatulong
Sam Protacio I would be careful in using a combination of those ingredients you mention on your underarms kc they are all irritating. I dont particularly advise tretinoin use for that area unless it is part of a bleaching cream formula (eg kligman’s) but still with caution.
Hello! Sorry now ko lng nabasa. Your pore size is genetically determined. Pero may mga bagay that can make them look larger than they are at meron dn mga pwedeng magawa to make your pores appear smaller. Make sure you properly clean your face because oil, dirt and debris can make your pores look larger than they are. Exfoliate regularly to remove all the leftover oil, dirt and debris not effectively removed by cleaning. You may also visit your dermatologist to get in-clinic treatments that may help with your pores :)
Hello! Have you been diagnosed clinically and histopathologocally with Scleroderma? It is a systemic, auto-immune condition brought about by mutations in certains genes. The signs and symptoms can be controlled by many possible medications depending on which organ system is affected. Exfoliation is not one of them. I suggest you talk to your dermatologist about it :)
Doc, I am planning to use Quick Fx Pimple Eraser Facial Gel Cleanser and Cosrx Aha Bha Toner. Pwede po ba sila pagsabayin? Paano po sila gamitin? Isang beses lang po ba or twice a week?
Hello Doc, I am planning to exfoliate my skin after taking course of Doxycyline antibiotic for 28days due to plenty of darkspots. Paula's Choice 2% BHA Exfoliant will do? I need your professional advice po. Thanks
You can start slowly and with gentle mechanical exfoliants or low concentration chemical exfoliants. Observe your skin and watch out for irritation. For some people ok lng, but for others you need to let your skin get used to it. I personally use an AHA toner followed by a retinoid at night but I do put moisturizer and an occlusive after :)
Doc, how about yung sa Blemish Miracle Set po ng Hello Glow? Pwede po pa syang gamitin everyday? I just bought mine po kase and good thing I haven't use it yet and I see your video. Thanks in advance na po❤️🥰
@@irenegaile thank you po Doc. I'm watching all of your vudeos now and I've already subscribed to your channel. I super love your videos po, very informative and mas kampante ako to listen from a Board Certified Derma🥰❤️
Doc, should i wait 20-30 minutes after applying bha exfoliant before applying moisturizer? ,i read that if you proceed immediately with your moisturizer the ph level of the exfoliant will increase and will not be effective anymore is it true?
Phoebi E hi! It depends on what type of bha exfoliant you are using and the concentration, also if its wash-off or leave-on. If its toner-based, you may apply as soon as the products dry up. If its cream-based, a few minutes should be ok (no need to wait 20-30mins).
Thank you for this informative vlog, Doc! I am planning to incorporate a chemical exfoliant in my skincare regimen, particularly one that contains glycolic acid. Perhaps once or twice weekly exfoliation (on nights that I don't use my retinol). What form/type would you recommend po for my glycolic-based exfoliant? Would it be better to have it in toner/peeling pads form? Or just lotion/cream?
Irene Castro if you want 1-2x a week application only, I recommend you go for exfoliating pads. Creams and tonics have lower concentration, ideal for daily use :)
Hello po Doc! 🥰 Which is better po to be used as daily exfoliating toner kahit sa gabi lang po? 8% glycolic toner or 5% lang po dapat? I am using a retinol serum din po matagal na pero I miss the smoothness that I get from using aha toner. 😅😁
Hi Doc. Many Foreign Dermatologist didn't recommend the St. Ives Apricot Scub for Exfoliation .But based on my experience ,it did work naman po sa skin ko. Should i continue pa rin ba po?
Honestly I also used that when I was in college. The reason why they dont recommend it is because ung granules nya can be abrasive and irritating on the skin. Some can be sharp enough to cause microtears on the skin kc :)
Thank you po sa info Doc... Ask ko lang po kailangan po mag hilamos muna ng gentle cleanser bago mag exfoliate o pwede po na exfoliate agad kahit walang gentle cleanser?... Thank you po 😇😇
Music Hero hello! You will probably get different answers from different experts. But I personally prefer to was the face, with a gentle cleanser, first to remove all the dirt and debris, before exfoliating. It also depends on what kind of exfoliant you are using - physical scrub or chemical exfoliant. Some physical scrubs are also cleansers so in this case you might not need to wash before you exfoliate. But when using chemical exfoliants either in toner form or peeling pads, i would recommend that you wash your face first :)
hi doc..ano po ibig sabihin ng 10 000 ppm?wala po kasing nakalagay ang aha bha ko kung ilang percent.. 10 000 ppm lang nakalagay at 2 percent niacinamide.
Toph Beifong hello! Depends on your skin type and what kind of exfoliant you are using. If you are oily and acne-prone pwede up to 3x a day. If normal to combination skin pwede 2x a week. For dry skin, once a week is ok :)
hello! yes its ok to exfoliate but i would recommend chemical exfoliant rather than physical. You can try toners with low concentration salicylic acid (5%) which u can use everyday.
Oh a clay mask is not an exfoliant except nalang if it contains acids which is not something that I imagine is available. Clay masks are drying and using them with exfoliants may cause irritation.
I would like to use chemical exfoliator like kojic soap to exfoliate at night pero high pH siya nakakatakot, eh ayoko naman po ng physical exfoliators, any recommemdations na low pH and chemical exfoliation po?
I dont recommend using soaps on the face kc drying cya, stick to gentle cleansers. For exfoliating i recommend low concentration AHAs (5-10%) for normal to combination skin and low concentration BHAs (salicylic acid, 2% or less) if you are oily or acne-prone :)
@@irenegaile thank you. See everyone, coming from a derma, no to soap talaga for face. Okay lang ba yung Pond's anti acne facial foam? Pero high pH siya doc (I used pH strips). But I wanna try yung Celeteque na anti acne, or any facial washes na may salicylic acid na tama lang ang concentration at dapat low ph.
Doc,teen po ako and problem korin po ung pores ksi lumalaki po im 16 po and need kopo ito ng solution oily skin po ako sna po may ma recommend po kau saking pang exfoliate.Thanks and God Bless po☺️
If you want an in-depth assessment of your skin type, needs and concerns pinaka ok parin talaga mag consult para hindi ka na nag eexperiment bg mga gagamitin mo sa skin mo.
Hi doc, new subscriber here!!! Does betaine salicylate effective as salicylic acid? Mostly korean skincare products use this as BHA since may limit daw sa paggamit ng salicylic acid sa korea.
Kier Vincent Salaño hello! Betaine salicylate comes from beets and you’re right, it is used as an alternative to salicylic acid (SA) in areas where SA use is regulated. However there arent that many studies about it yet in terms of efficacy and how it compares with SA. Some say that you need a higher concentration of betaine salicylate to match the efficacy of SA, while others say that it’s similar. Bottom line is, always listen to your skin, observe, if it responds to betaine salicylate and addresses your skin concerns then it means its a good match for your skin :)
i mean chemical exfoliants po Doc, pero another question doc, is it ok to use niacinamide and alpha arbutin for my age? Im targeting hyperpigmentation, dark spots, physical scarring, and wrinkles po kasi Doc eh, I look older po kasi for my age unlike others. And susulitin ko na po, whats the best treatment po for physical scarring caused by acne?? Thank you Doc, God bless you and more power! - I also want to be a dermatologist po someday hehe
doc pwede ko po ba gamitin araw araw ang 10% glycolic acid cream kase acne prone po ako kapag po tinigil ko ng mga 1 month bumabalik po mga whiteheads,blackheads and acne ko po
hi doc yung topical 3% salicylic acid na over-the-counter sa mga watsons and mercury drugs can be applied to our face po? im just worried it might be too harsh sa skin lalo na when i read the description it is supposedly for warts and corns (didn’t say na it’s for pimples). i’ve tried it for months and although it works im kinda worried lang kasi my skin peels and minsan super dry even if i’ve applied my moisturizer. i just want to know if this product is safe to use on my face. :)
Sa face i usually recommend 1-2% salicylic acid in toner form :) ung 3% hindi naman cya gaanong mataas but if it says for warts or corns baka may iba pa cyang kasamang ingredients na hindi ok gamitin sa face.
I’ve been waiting for this moment. Having an online RUclips dermatologist in the Philippines.❤️

Oh a clay mask is not an exfoliant except nalang if it contains acids which is not something that I imagine is available. Clay masks are drying and using them with exfoliants may cause irritation.
I would like to use chemical exfoliator like kojic soap to exfoliate at night pero high pH siya nakakatakot, eh ayoko naman po ng physical exfoliators, any recommemdations na low pH and chemical exfoliation po?
I dont recommend using soaps on the face kc drying cya, stick to gentle cleansers.
For exfoliating i recommend low concentration AHAs (5-10%) for normal to combination skin and low concentration BHAs (salicylic acid, 2% or less) if you are oily or acne-prone :)
@@irenegaile thank you.
See everyone, coming from a derma, no to soap talaga for face.
Okay lang ba yung Pond's anti acne facial foam? Pero high pH siya doc (I used pH strips).
But I wanna try yung Celeteque na anti acne, or any facial washes na may salicylic acid na tama lang ang concentration at dapat low ph.
Doc how about retinols po like tretinoin
Jenn Lori Gepaya hello! Cge i will make one one retinoids :) thank you for the topic suggestion :)

If you want an in-depth assessment of your skin type, needs and concerns pinaka ok parin talaga mag consult para hindi ka na nag eexperiment bg mga gagamitin mo sa skin mo.
Hi doc! ☺️ Sana po next time po, about toner / serum / essence for dark spots, anti-wrinkles and anti-aging. hehehe ☺️
Claudine Sosa hello! Cge will work on that. Thank you for the support and topic suggestions! ☺️
Hi doc, new subscriber here!!! Does betaine salicylate effective as salicylic acid? Mostly korean skincare products use this as BHA since may limit daw sa paggamit ng salicylic acid sa korea.
Kier Vincent Salaño hello! Betaine salicylate comes from beets and you’re right, it is used as an alternative to salicylic acid (SA) in areas where SA use is regulated. However there arent that many studies about it yet in terms of efficacy and how it compares with SA. Some say that you need a higher concentration of betaine salicylate to match the efficacy of SA, while others say that it’s similar.
Bottom line is, always listen to your skin, observe, if it responds to betaine salicylate and addresses your skin concerns then it means its a good match for your skin :)
Oh I see doc :) Sana magwork sakin ang BS since medyo harsh ang SA for me :(
Thanks sa response doc :)
Hi po doc ano po ma susugest nyo sakin 14 years old palang ako tas dami ko ng pimples

Hello! Use what? :)
i mean chemical exfoliants po Doc, pero another question doc, is it ok to use niacinamide and alpha arbutin for my age? Im targeting hyperpigmentation, dark spots, physical scarring, and wrinkles po kasi Doc eh, I look older po kasi for my age unlike others. And susulitin ko na po, whats the best treatment po for physical scarring caused by acne?? Thank you Doc, God bless you and more power!
- I also want to be a dermatologist po someday hehe
Hi doc anong products po ang pwde sa acidic po
What do you mean acidic?
doc pwede ko po ba gamitin araw araw ang 10% glycolic acid cream kase acne prone po ako kapag po tinigil ko ng mga 1 month bumabalik po mga whiteheads,blackheads and acne ko po
Yes, as long as your skin can tolerate ok lng. Just don't forget to wear sunscreen and reapply as needed :)
hi doc yung topical 3% salicylic acid na over-the-counter sa mga watsons and mercury drugs can be applied to our face po? im just worried it might be too harsh sa skin lalo na when i read the description it is supposedly for warts and corns (didn’t say na it’s for pimples).
i’ve tried it for months and although it works im kinda worried lang kasi my skin peels and minsan super dry even if i’ve applied my moisturizer. i just want to know if this product is safe to use on my face. :)
Sa face i usually recommend 1-2% salicylic acid in toner form :) ung 3% hindi naman cya gaanong mataas but if it says for warts or corns baka may iba pa cyang kasamang ingredients na hindi ok gamitin sa face.
How bout tretinoin?
Tretinoin is not considered an exfoliant, it is a keratolytic that regulates skin turnover :)
