Can you break down the different in-office laser that target each skin concern (hyperpigmentation, fine lines. Etc……) and what are some required questions we should ask when seeking out a cosmetic dermatologist to perform the procedure. Thank you for all the knowledge and expertise to all us skincare nerds!! Sending light and positivity from Alaska 😊
Thank you! CO2 lasers next, please? From my understanding they also target texture (e.g. acne scars) and/or also talking through some of your thinking behind choosing one modality over another when they target the same issue. Thanks for all you do!
I’m not a dermatologist, but from my understanding, a lot of the time dermatologists recommend a mixed modality strategy to increase the likelihood of getting better results w remodelling the skin w atrophic scarring (microneedling w PRP, series of peels, subcision, RF microneedling w PRP, lasers). CO2 laser isn’t recommended for darker skin types (anything Fitzpatrick 3 and higher). If you qualify for CO2, there will be a lot of downtime because they’re basically removing the stratum corneum to resurface the skin. A dermatologist might recommend other treatments post-CO2 just for maintenance.
Would love a video on botox and filler. I'm 26 and am wanting to get some baby botox in my forehead and above my lip for that "lip flip" look. Now we're seeing more and more of the contraindications to long-term filler use and I see muscular atrophy with botox as well. I've also seen people who are unimpressed with their laser or microneedling giving them fat loss or worsened hyperpigmentation. Which is horrible because it's so expensive. Can you discuss any potential side effects or downsides with in-office treatments?
Yes! More of this type of content. It’s such an opaque thing to navigate and this helps be a more educated consumer of procedures. Can you also include expected/average costs of these procedures?
I'm turning 37 and feeling pulled into the mid life crisis... I look at my face and body and I see so many aging signs I don't like ... Milia around my eyes, sun spots, acne scars, red veins around my nose, wrinkles, skin tags on my body etc... I'm begining to entertain the idea of cosmetic procedures. I just need to take the step once and for all...
Dr. Idriss, how do you recommend those who are of the chocolate melanin goodness, find doctors who have worked on patients of color and are experienced with darker skin?Especially for those of us who don’t live in super diverse communities. Would love to learn more about the types of lasers and IPL treatments for darker skin tones. Thank you for your videos! Loved this and love your channel.
Check out Dr. Alexis Stephens on youtube. She's a Black board-certified dermatologist who treats POC patients. She has a video on youtube that addresses a lot of your questions/concerns.
The Style and Beauty Doctor brings several black dermatologists on her RUclips channel! I found Dr Alexis Stephens, Brown Skin Derm and the Acne Expert from her channel.
@@haidehollins It's good. But, I am looking for an in-person derm, preferably a WoC so that I have someone both knowledgeable and invested in my results. Sigh . ..
Thanks to your patient for permitting her procedure to be shown - it is so educational for viewers to be able to see the process to get some idea of what to expect.
I'm stalking you honestly, every time a new video is up I must watch it! Gosh I love these videos. It probably isn't healthy and I apologize :( But you've revamped my skincare routine and made it so simple! Forever grateful.
This is super helpful and makes lasers less intimidating! What's your opinion on at-home radiofrequency devices like Current Body's Tripollar Stop? Are they a good approach before seeking professional treatment or just skip and go straight to professional treatment if one can afford it? Thank you for doing this channel! It's honestly been a game changer for my skincare routine. 🙏
I had 2 IPL treatments this last winter. I am going to have one more in the fall followed by a chemical peel to get one stubborn bit of pigment. I have been very happy with the results!
I love learning about in-office treatments! Thank you for this video. Can you speak about Picosure and picoway? Any treatments aimed towards large pores? Thank you Doc! 💜
Gosh, your hair is gorgeous! 🌷 I would love more information on injectables. I have “smokers” lines around my mouth (never smoked!) that make me unhappy. It would be great to understand the cost of the different treatments. Thank you. Love your content!🌷💚
This is a FANTASTIC video. I'm very interested in watching more of those treatment explainer videos. Going behind the scenes and seeing the procedure AND the results is invaluable -- it's not something many (any?) good derm/cosmetic channels do and it helps us all make informed decisions around treatments. thank you so much Dr Idriss 💞💞💞 Bises à vous, et encore merci pour tout!
I would love info on ultherapy (isn’t that what you did pre-pregnancy for tighter skin?) or other treatments you would recommend (I’ve had BBL twice & also chemical peels) Looking to keep chipping away at my pigmentation and also to lift and tighten - thank you for sharing! Skincare is my nerd thing 🤩
Cool Peel CO2 laser! I have acne scars and done microneedling twice. It definitely helped. This laser was recommended by my derm. I have very fair skin, dry, been on Accutane twice (over 10 years ago), and now a touch of rosacea that I handle well with skin care. I am looking 100 percent for improved texture.
As a guy, I've been getting botox for 2 years now especially when I turned 33 and saw some frown lines forming. My older brother used to look like a Marlboro Man ad model in his 20's. Now in his 40s, he looks like the after pic of a nicotine patch campaign. My mom looks like she's in her 50s and she's in her 70s so I know there's salvation on my side of the family. I promised myself not to shrivel up like a dried up sultana before I turned 40. I only tell my friends I've gotten botox. But what they don't know is my bathroom cupboard filled with western and asian skincare that had saved my skin for the last 2 years. I do believe skincare and facial treatments go hand in hand.
For folks with a history of keloids, what do you recommend as a replacements for micro needling in this portion of your treatment to treat collagen and fine lines. Also I’m so happy you made this video! I definitely reached out to you on IG about making an in office treatment video - so thank you so much!!
YESSS! This is my main concern on my face. Forehead wrinkles, and crows feet don’t even bother me….it’s my neck and jowls! I am so extremely self conscious of the sagging skin starting to form on my 47 year old face. I want to do something to fix it *now* before it gets too saggy. Because I can tell, if I have this much sagging now, I can’t even imagine what it’s going to look like ten years from now 😩. So you asked a great question! Thanks!
@@EnvyBlu I feel like my oval face has melted into a potato shape as I age. I'm all about self-love... and self-improvement... there's some improving I can do >.>
This was extremely interesting. To hear from a dermatologist which of their treatments they recommend for a specific complaint (or in this case complaints) is fascinating. Thanks so much for the video.
Can you discuss Dual Fraxel Laser treatments? I've seen videos showing people's skin bronze up with color (like a bad sunburn) then slowly peel off over the 3-5 days post treatment to reveal pretty amazing results. Its seems to treat texture, fine lines and pigmentation all at once. Thank you
I would love to get this treatment. Very informative post. I really appreciate how you break down the science in everything you share. I wish you the best...where did you get your top and jacket? très élégante 😍
Dr. Idriss, I love your channel! Now that I’ve buttered you up (jk), a question please: When you mention products, could you please suggest or specify products that are cruelty free? Two questions 🤥: In conjunction with this video, would you please consider doing a video on RF devices and avoiding volume loss?
I hope one day I can visit your clinic for a treatment 😭 I live in Pakistan and you’re literally the only dermatologist I trust (apart from Dr Shah and Dr Maxfield). I have wasted so much money from the age of 14 to 28 trying to fix my acne and it was only after watching your videos that skincare made any sense to me.
Thank you!! This is my “down the road/saving up for goal”. In meantime I’m ready to dive into Botox. Can you please offer advise on that? I recall somewhere you mentioning specific recs like on how much and where. I want my forehead and angry lines addressed. Thank you for all you do!!💕
If you have some chronic health issues and are on medications, check out with your expert pls. For ex, I cannot use Botox (fillers yes) since I had my thyroid gland removed and botox highly diminishes the effects of medications regulating my hormones. Hope this helps
Just watched your fantastic video on hyper-pigmentation remedies from a year ago. Are there any new players in this field? Or are the oldies still goodies?? P.S. Stop listening to your detractors and tailoring your output to their negative comments. It only empowers them. The thousands of viewers who love and follow you - because you are fabulous you, should speak for itself!!♥️
Is there any treatment for tear troughs other than fillers? Also, I love your videos, they have been incredibly helpful for not only my confidence in my product knowledge, but also my overall skincare health! thank you!
I appreciate your videos and look forward to them! I would like to even out my skin tone, texture and get rid of the dark spots. Would you recommend a chemical peel?
Love your videos! Super useful content! What is your opinion on home beauty devices? For example, light treatment, radio frequency devices etc. Are they worth investing money in? Or which ones are more worthwhile than others?
Thank you Dr. Shereene for the informative video. I wanted to ask about your thoughts of Laser Genesis, It was mainly recommended to treat rosacea and redness
Thank you Dr. Idriss, this was unbelievably helpful. I am 67 and have really good skin with few wrinkles. As a kind of not too invasive procedure, something called a Cool Peel (Co2?) was recommended, so I am wondering what the difference is between the IPL/Microneedling with RF and the Cool Peel? Similar outcomes? thanks, Kathleen
Yes, please - more info. Oh how I wish the gap between NY and FL were much smaller than it is - I would gladly travel to be your patient. Since I’m all the way down on the coastal Gulf of Mexico, I’ll have to get my Dr. I fix via YT. I’m on the edge of pulling the trigger on the Clear and Brilliant treatment but am slightly fearful. I was the great results but fear my skin will react poorly. My face is becoming more and more intolerant to warm weather and will be decent in the morning but late afternoon I feel the flush come over me with heat and redness which also sucks the moisture from my face instantly and ages me yrs, in a matter of minutes. I’m menopausal and have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Raynaud’s Syndrome and Sjogrens. Question is - are there patients who you would advise against any of these treatments and which medical conditions typically run hand in hand with the advise to skip these treatments.
Thank you for this. I have rosacea and was recommended IPL, but was nervous because some have openly stated that it doesn't work. Having this explanation really helped. There was also a laser treatment I was recommended, but I cannot remember whether it was Fraxel or not, so I need to ask my doctor again. Thank you.
Please do a video focusing on what options might be in office for hypopigmentation from acne scars! I have only heard you briefly mention this topic and I would like to know if it's worth me ever seeking treatment for these, since I am hopeless on my own! Thanks!
Great content. I’ve had my first of three IPL treatments so far at a local med spa with a dermatologist with great reviews…. So far I’ve seen some results already, looking forward to having all three done to see the difference in my hyperpigmentation.
Hi Dr. Idriss, love all your videos as usual. I recently did an PRP treatment for my facial skin. My skin type is dry and I’m 32 with some fine lines. In General I take good care of my skin, but there were some fine lines forming and it lacked a bit of plumpness so I decided to give PRP a try. I initially wanted to go for a Fraxel treatment but the cosmetician didn’t recommend it as I didn’t have any large pores and she said I wouldn’t benefit so much from such a treatment. I’m now 4 days post treatment and I’m still bruised from the needle injections. My question is, what can I expect from PRP treatments and what would be your top 3 recommended in office treatments to brighten up, even out skin tone, and to firm and plump up the skin of someone in their 30s? Thank you for reading the comments ❤️
Love this! Could you do a video on using the Tixel please? Fairly new device using heat. 400 degree Celsius. Majority of the settings is no downtime, unless it’s used at a higher setting which os similar to the Co2.
Hi Shereene, Thank you for all of your very instructive videos. Based on this one, if tightening the mid face is my aim, what would you suggest (age 38). I imagine you can't accurately answer things like this without seeing a patient. Maybe you could do a video on this topic. Would a thread lift be a potential good idea? Thank you
Hello Dr. Idriss, I so appreciate your videos and love that I can look forward to them each week. This isn’t related to this video, but I have never commented before, and was curious what your opinion is on cryofacials? I am in my early 30s and have combination skin and am debating it to see if it can improve my skin texture and breakouts. Thank you in advance and happy Saturday! V
Yes! Thoughts on Laser Genesis and/or Pastelle Laser Toning? Anyone here have one or the other done? I'd love to read more about your thoughts/experiences. Thanks!
This is pretty interesting! I don't have any of those skincare concerns but if I did I think i would be too scared of treatments due being Asian, where asian skin is more easily irritated and triggered by treatments causing hyperpigmentation, so I heard they can't be used on skin other than white skin. A lot of my caucasian friends do seem to like all those treatments like laser and stuff though, pity there's nothing for skin of colour
Would you do a video on how to choose a dermatologist? We all know that there are skilled doctors and not so skilled. How do we go about this process? Also beneficial would be a video on how to speak to a dermatologist for them to take action and address your concerns instead of "you look fine, we will discuss it next year."
I have to share my experience, heat won’t help I learned the hard way. Every ones skin is different. But for me what helped was hydroquinone with retinol prescribed by a dermatologist which is higher in percentage along with vitamin C and tons of sunscreen. What city do you live in? I can give you the info to my dermatologist. His amazing. I’m in Los Angeles.
Dr. Idriss, i want a detailed video about collagen supplements please. Alternative and regarding plant and animal based supplements. Many are spending more money for collagen tablets and powder please throw some light on that also.
Thank u doctor idriss am 49 take good care of my skin. Spend a absolute fortune , like to add probiotics, peptides and cerimides from my products . Use vit c and azelic acid in my routines . I tried tret for 11 months an it’s made my pigmentation worse an brings me out blotchy . I have persevered but it gets worse , my skin is well retinized now no peeling no breakout sore spots . But this blotchy skin an more prominent pigmentation really gets me down . I apply spf 50 or 30 every day even when am at home . Never sit in the sun anymore or by a window . I just want to ask do u think it’s time for me to try a few in clinic procedures? And could my skin just not adjust to tret or can tret be to strong for some sensitive skins ? Thank u . Really enjoy watching ur videos xx
Thank you Shereen! Love the topic! Would you say the Morphius8 is a good machine for microneedling & RF (since you mention you use the Luminus Legend Pro but I cant find it in my area )
I've gotten a QuadroStarPRO YELLOW treatment about 2 years ago and it did wonder for any hyperpigmentation, but I was trying to target my spider veins. She treated my spider veins and it got a tiny bit better, but left me with scaring :-(. Worse of all, white scars that no longer has pigment so if I turn red, those spots stay white. I was very gentle after the treatments (I had 2 of them), I protected my skin with occlusion, washed it with Aveeno Calm and Restore (and used the serum). Some of the scabbing fell off a little too quick leaving other type of scars. What's bad is I still have spider veins and I will need to go see someone else to try to fix that. Now, the scaring I'm referring to is not super bad or so noticeable that I won't go out (I do but have to cover up) but being someone who's suffered from BDD for years it is very difficult for me not to see them as the ONLY thing on my face. I'm worried about other treatment but would love to correct the damage that was done from my previous procedure. I would love to go see Dr. Idriss as I am sure she could see, understand and help me :-)! Anyway, for those of you out there looking to do some of those treatments, do your homework, make sure the person doing the work is educated and won't go too agressive. I rather go 5 times if needed but have a gentler, more gradual result then being scarred for life.
i would up my game if the prices weren’t the cost of a used car lol
Can you break down the different in-office laser that target each skin concern (hyperpigmentation, fine lines. Etc……) and what are some required questions we should ask when seeking out a cosmetic dermatologist to perform the procedure. Thank you for all the knowledge and expertise to all us skincare nerds!!

I’m not a dermatologist, but from my understanding, a lot of the time dermatologists recommend a mixed modality strategy to increase the likelihood of getting better results w remodelling the skin w atrophic scarring (microneedling w PRP, series of peels, subcision, RF microneedling w PRP, lasers). CO2 laser isn’t recommended for darker skin types (anything Fitzpatrick 3 and higher). If you qualify for CO2, there will be a lot of downtime because they’re basically removing the stratum corneum to resurface the skin. A dermatologist might recommend other treatments post-CO2 just for maintenance.
Would love a video on botox and filler. I'm 26 and am wanting to get some baby botox in my forehead and above my lip for that "lip flip" look. Now we're seeing more and more of the contraindications to long-term filler use and I see muscular atrophy with botox as well. I've also seen people who are unimpressed with their laser or microneedling giving them fat loss or worsened hyperpigmentation. Which is horrible because it's so expensive. Can you discuss any potential side effects or downsides with in-office treatments?
Yes! More of this type of content. It’s such an opaque thing to navigate and this helps be a more educated consumer of procedures. Can you also include expected/average costs of these procedures?

Great content. I’ve had my first of three IPL treatments so far at a local med spa with a dermatologist with great reviews…. So far I’ve seen some results already, looking forward to having all three done to see the difference in my hyperpigmentation.
How did the rest of the treatments go?
Thank you for doing this video. Not all of us want or are interested in botox, fillers and needles lol. Thanks!
Thank you Dr. Idriss for such great content!!
Hi Dr. Idriss, love all your videos as usual. I recently did an PRP treatment for my facial skin. My skin type is dry and I’m 32 with some fine lines. In General I take good care of my skin, but there were some fine lines forming and it lacked a bit of plumpness so I decided to give PRP a try. I initially wanted to go for a Fraxel treatment but the cosmetician didn’t recommend it as I didn’t have any large pores and she said I wouldn’t benefit so much from such a treatment. I’m now 4 days post treatment and I’m still bruised from the needle injections. My question is, what can I expect from PRP treatments and what would be your top 3 recommended in office treatments to brighten up, even out skin tone, and to firm and plump up the skin of someone in their 30s?
Thank you for reading the comments ❤️
Really helpful and informative. Thank you!
I've been told that Microneedling RF should not be used on patients with rosacea. What is your opinion, Dr. Idriss?
Yes that’s true I didn’t once it make it worse ,
Would love to see how you treat milia specially milia on the eyelid. Thanks for the great video.
What's your opinion on copper peptides to stimulate collagene? I see some other dermatologist recommend using them. If yes, how would you use them?
I’d love to know as well 🙏🏻
Love this! Could you do a video on using the Tixel please? Fairly new device using heat. 400 degree Celsius. Majority of the settings is no downtime, unless it’s used at a higher setting which os similar to the Co2.
Hi Shereene,
Thank you for all of your very instructive videos. Based on this one, if tightening the mid face is my aim, what would you suggest (age 38). I imagine you can't accurately answer things like this without seeing a patient. Maybe you could do a video on this topic. Would a thread lift be a potential good idea? Thank you
Please do a video about Vbeam! I’m interested in trying it out for my PIE/PIH
Hello Dr. Idriss, I so appreciate your videos and love that I can look forward to them each week. This isn’t related to this video, but I have never commented before, and was curious what your opinion is on cryofacials? I am in my early 30s and have combination skin and am debating it to see if it can improve my skin texture and breakouts.
Thank you in advance and happy Saturday!

Hi doc please also review picosure laser, and tightening device such as hifu or ultheraphy. Thank you!
Yes! Thoughts on Laser Genesis and/or Pastelle Laser Toning? Anyone here have one or the other done? I'd love to read more about your thoughts/experiences. Thanks!
Wonderful video! Thanks for sharing your world with us 😊
Hi Dr. Idriss what kind of treatment or laser good for tightening the skin ?? Ty
This is pretty interesting! I don't have any of those skincare concerns but if I did I think i would be too scared of treatments due being Asian, where asian skin is more easily irritated and triggered by treatments causing hyperpigmentation, so I heard they can't be used on skin other than white skin. A lot of my caucasian friends do seem to like all those treatments like laser and stuff though, pity there's nothing for skin of colour
Yes. More.
Great video!!!
Would you do a video on how to choose a dermatologist? We all know that there are skilled doctors and not so skilled. How do we go about this process? Also beneficial would be a video on how to speak to a dermatologist for them to take action and address your concerns instead of "you look fine, we will discuss it next year."
I’m struggling with Malasma and I’m scared of any heat making it worse. What’s the best in office treatments to help with this skin condition?
I have to share my experience, heat won’t help I learned the hard way. Every ones skin is different. But for me what helped was hydroquinone with retinol prescribed by a dermatologist which is higher in percentage along with vitamin C and tons of sunscreen. What city do you live in? I can give you the info to my dermatologist. His amazing. I’m in Los Angeles.
The Clear and Brilliant laser + under eye hyaluronic treatment
I love Isdin! Never hear people talking about it though
Dr. Idriss, i want a detailed video about collagen supplements please. Alternative and regarding plant and animal based supplements. Many are spending more money for collagen tablets and powder please throw some light on that also.
Love this style of video…thanks‼️❤️
Thank u doctor idriss am 49 take good care of my skin. Spend a absolute fortune , like to add probiotics, peptides and cerimides from my products . Use vit c and azelic acid in my routines . I tried tret for 11 months an it’s made my pigmentation worse an brings me out blotchy . I have persevered but it gets worse , my skin is well retinized now no peeling no breakout sore spots . But this blotchy skin an more prominent pigmentation really gets me down . I apply spf 50 or 30 every day even when am at home . Never sit in the sun anymore or by a window . I just want to ask do u think it’s time for me to try a few in clinic procedures? And could my skin just not adjust to tret or can tret be to strong for some sensitive skins ? Thank u . Really enjoy watching ur videos xx
Such a coincidence! I just got a fractional laser treatment!
Super video, as usual, thank you! Beam me to NY. Wondering if an 8 hour transatlantic flight is excessive for a derm appointment😆😅
Thank you Shereen! Love the topic! Would you say the Morphius8 is a good machine for microneedling & RF (since you mention you use the Luminus Legend Pro but I cant find it in my area )
I tried Morpheus for my scaring and I love my skin now ❤️ can’t wait to go for the second session
I've gotten a QuadroStarPRO YELLOW treatment about 2 years ago and it did wonder for any hyperpigmentation, but I was trying to target my spider veins. She treated my spider veins and it got a tiny bit better, but left me with scaring :-(. Worse of all, white scars that no longer has pigment so if I turn red, those spots stay white. I was very gentle after the treatments (I had 2 of them), I protected my skin with occlusion, washed it with Aveeno Calm and Restore (and used the serum). Some of the scabbing fell off a little too quick leaving other type of scars. What's bad is I still have spider veins and I will need to go see someone else to try to fix that. Now, the scaring I'm referring to is not super bad or so noticeable that I won't go out (I do but have to cover up) but being someone who's suffered from BDD for years it is very difficult for me not to see them as the ONLY thing on my face. I'm worried about other treatment but would love to correct the damage that was done from my previous procedure. I would love to go see Dr. Idriss as I am sure she could see, understand and help me :-)! Anyway, for those of you out there looking to do some of those treatments, do your homework, make sure the person doing the work is educated and won't go too agressive. I rather go 5 times if needed but have a gentler, more gradual result then being scarred for life.
Can you do one on Secret RF please and does it really help in minimizing pores?
