    Impressive content, Dr. Aleksandra Brown. Excited to see your next video from you. I hit the thumbs up symbol on your upload. Keep up the fantastic work. Your breakdown of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation was incredibly thorough! What are your thoughts on the long-term effects of using hydroquinone versus tranexamic acid for treating hyperpigmentation?

    • @DrAleksandraBrown

      I recommend taking breaks from hydroquinone while topical tranexamic acid doesn’t need breaks imo

    I am getting a decent amount of milia, suddenly, and I don't know if it's because of my oil cleanser which I use to remove my water-resistant sunscreen (and have been using for years), my sunscreen (which I've been using for years) or Vanicream cream (which I've been using for years - along with the cleanser). Stumped. I have dry/uber sensitive skin and keep my routine/ingredients super simple (no fragrance/EO) as I just started Tret (zero irritation after three months, .025)..). I splash my face in the morning and go right to Sunscreen (from Europe with filters I tolerate better, EVY Kids 50)....any suggestions why?....P.S. The Cerave Cream to Foam Cleanser has Salycilic acid, so I avoid it...

    I was so hoping you had chosen a fragrance/EO-free cleansing balm. With super-sensitive/dry skin, if you have one in your arsenal, let me know. Double cleansing works the best for taking off my water-resistant sunscreen, but fragrance and EOs cause irritation.

    When I was ten, I had TONS of pimples. So I really don’t think that a basic skincare routine like this would work. And a lot of 10 yrs old are facing with pimples too and everyone says “U don’t need much, only a cleanser, mouisturizer and a sunscreen will work”. But no It changes person to person. Im not saying they should use glow recipe, drunk elephant or anything else. Like even my doctor when I was ten, gave me an exfoliating tonic and it didn’t work, I tried lots of toners and tonics but nothing! So my doctor had to give me some special treatment. And back then, all of my friends were facing with this situation. So like a basic skincare like this doesn’t always work.

    I went to a Russian run hole in the wall at a strip mall and wanted to just not have a uni brow when I was 12 in the 90s and she gave me Pamela Anderson brows they hardly grew back but I feel my oiky skin would take that solution travel all over my face but perhaps I'd give it a go during the winter as my skin oddly get dry. My hair is thinning too so I'll let you know in the next few mths.

    As far as I know It will work, but only for a year or two, then you won't see results as you were used to. When you then decide to stop using it, your brows will shed and you'll end up worse than before starting it. Everything comes with a price.

    • @DrAleksandraBrown

    hi!! i turned 12 about 6 months ago and ive been struggling with breakouts and acne. not the acne you think though, ive never seen anyone talk about it before and im really struggling with it. i honestly don’t care and I’m not interested in skin care, but I am interested in not having breakouts. i use a spf moisturizer and facial cleanser daily. i go back-and-forth between a super cheap facial cleanser, and a fairly expensive one that is a lot more harsh. I don’t like either of these cleansers. I don’t know if it’s because of the type of cleanser that I’m using or if it’s that both of those just don’t work for my skin at my age. tips???

But after that I kept using these gels on and off...or whenever I get a small acne....as a spot treatment.... But now I'm thinking of using them daily till those tubes get empty just as a preventive measure for future acne Should I use them even I don't have acne now ??
