1 00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: I'm not a shamed to say that I put a 2 00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:05,760 Speaker 1: lot of time and effort as well as money into 3 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:08,240 Speaker 1: my own skin. I love all the treatments, I love 4 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: all the lasers. But according to doctor Munibe Shat, not 5 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:13,320 Speaker 1: everyone can say the same. 6 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 2: The guys always inevitably are like, there's resistance to like 7 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 2: accepting that they actually care. 8 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 3: They don't want to admit that. And then visit to visit. 9 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 2: You just see their personalities changing as their skin gets better. 10 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 2: Once they start to see progress, I think they really 11 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 2: kind of enjoy it. They're like, oh, this is working, 12 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 2: and I actually do feel better, and now I do 13 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 2: want to talk about my skin. 14 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: If there's one thing I've learned so far in this podcast, 15 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,599 Speaker 1: it's that healthy skin matters and it should be an 16 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: option for everyone. So let's get past those ingrained gender 17 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: norms and get to know more about men and skin. Hi, guys, 18 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: and welcome. I'm so glad you're here. I'm Nicole Berry 19 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,919 Speaker 1: and this is Skin Queries, a show all about our 20 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: skin and its health as we grow in age. Our 21 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: skin is really a record of a life well lived, 22 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: because there isn't one body part that I can think 23 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: of that reflects our well being as clearly as our skin. 24 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: So let's go on this journey together to really understand 25 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: what's going on with our skin. Let's unravel the mysteries 26 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: happening inside and out. 27 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 4: Welcome back. 28 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: I can't wait to dive into this one today. It's 29 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: all about men and their skin. As you heard in 30 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: episode three, a very important person in my life dealt 31 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: with some skin issues, my husband, Nick, who has flaxorisis. 32 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: Nick is the guy who moves boxes, carry stuff, literally 33 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: builds our house with his bare hands. Yet he still 34 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: felt self conscious when his own hands became very red 35 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: and swollen. How he looked affected how he operated in 36 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: the world. So few of us are immune from that, 37 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: which goes against the stereotype that men are tough, they 38 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: have thick skin, and they don't care about what they 39 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: look like or their skin care. But limiting people and 40 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: setting expectations about what they are and are not supposed 41 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: to care about doesn't serve anyone. So instead of digging 42 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: up old gender stereotypes, we figured we go straight to 43 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: the source and ask men, how do you take care 44 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: of your skin? 45 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 5: That's never something I can to talk about, but I 46 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 5: would say most men at least like wash their face 47 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 5: with face wash. 48 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 6: Yeah. 49 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: I feel like some people will go like too far though, 50 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: buying all the products and stuff. 51 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 3: Like, you don't need all that. If you eat healthy 52 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 3: food is a big part, and like moisturize, you'll probably 53 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 3: be all right. Yeah. 54 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 5: I just have predominant oly skin, and I think some 55 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 5: of the products I've been introduced by with my wife 56 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 5: just take care of a little bit more. I just 57 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 5: feel way more competent with my skin than I was. 58 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 5: Probably Like during my undergrad. 59 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 2: I had terrible acne and I tried washing my skin. 60 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 3: I didn't really do anything. 61 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 2: So now I just do it as a precaution not 62 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: to get bad acne again. 63 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 5: Obviously under your beard for a lot of men to 64 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 5: get dry really quickly, and there's a lot of friction 65 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 5: that happens when you're sleeping or just touching your beard. 66 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 5: That's just like every day when I get out of 67 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 5: the shower, it's a little bit of oil and there's 68 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 5: a night cream. 69 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 3: What do we call that? 70 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 5: The Yeah, see, there you go moisturizer. So just trying 71 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 5: to have to be consistent with that. 72 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: That's so funny, moisturizer. Thanks for sharing your experiences. It 73 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: goes to show we all have to start somewhere to 74 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: break it all down. We're going to talk to a 75 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: dermatologist who makes a point of including men in. 76 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 4: His practice and his skincare line. Doctor MINIEB. 77 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: Shaw, speaks from his experience about what it's like to 78 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: care for your skin and how he sees it affect 79 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: other men and boys of all ages. But first we're 80 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: going to talk to father and daughter duo Elsa and 81 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: Ismael Kavazos. Elsa wrote an article about her dad for 82 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: Cosmo called Everything I Know about my skincare I learned 83 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: from my Mexican dad. Elsa says her dad destroyed stereotypes 84 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: by really caring about and treating his acne at a 85 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: young age, back in the nineteen seventies. He says it 86 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: was not something other men his age were doing, but 87 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: as Elsa tells it, her dad isn't like other people. 88 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: As I was so inspired by your article for Cosmo 89 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: about how everything you learned about skincare came from your dad, 90 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: which is such a beautiful story, and do you want 91 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: to tell us about your journey through skincare and how 92 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: it related to your dad. 93 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 7: Basically, I'm a journalist and a writer, and when I 94 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 7: was thinking about writing something unique related to my culture 95 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 7: and also skin, I just instantly thought about this fact 96 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 7: that I learned a lot about skin from my dad. 97 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 7: Even though my mom is also interested in skin, it 98 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 7: was just more my dad. And once I got agny, 99 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 7: he like totally freaked out. 100 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 4: It's ma'am, can you tell us more about your journey? 101 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 6: I was born and raised writing on the border with 102 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 6: brownswith Texas, which is Matta Motives on the Mexican side. 103 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 6: And because I had a ni la kabout to say 104 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 6: fourteen fifteen years old. One time I read an article 105 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 6: in a magazine and I read that some products were 106 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 6: good for my skin, particularly my skin care was for 107 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 6: the face. And then I realized that if I didn't 108 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 6: take care of myself, nobody else is going to do it. 109 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 6: So I started taking care of my skin. 110 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 4: So what did you do? 111 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 6: I remember they called it three step, which I learned 112 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 6: it perfectly. It was first of all, a soap the bar. 113 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 6: The second step, we were using a liquid like a cleanser, 114 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 6: a liquid one. Then you were using a cream like 115 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 6: a moisturizing cream. That was a three step, right, and 116 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 6: I used it for many, many years. I'm selling it too, 117 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 6: and I'm still taking care of my skin with soap, 118 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 6: with a cleanser and moisturizing. 119 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 1: Well, your skin shows, it looks amazing, You're glowing. And 120 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: so back in the seventies, what was it like around 121 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: men and skin care did you feel did you feel 122 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: proud about using it? Were you kind of embarrassed? I mean, 123 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: were there any feelings around you starting your own skincare 124 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:51,679 Speaker 1: or did you not care? 125 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 6: Well, I was the only one among all my friends, 126 00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 6: and I'm talking about nobody. Nobody was using skin care products. 127 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 6: I was the only one in those back in those years. 128 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 4: And so how did you feel about being the only one? 129 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 6: Well, I was not promoting to my friends that I 130 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 6: was using those skincares, but I was not. 131 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 4: Hiding them, you know, right right, So I'm not going. 132 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 6: To tell everybody, but if somebody noticed when we go 133 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 6: to a hotel or a field trip, they noticed, you scared. Yeah, 134 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 6: I think I'm a skin but it was kind of strange, rare. 135 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's hard to be the only one doing 136 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: anything right to be a trailblazer.

I'm excited. 191 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: Can you introduce yourself and tell us a little bit 192 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: about your practice and what you do. 193 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm doctor manneebe Shah. 194 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 2: I'm a board certified dermatologist in both general dermatology and 195 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 2: even surgical dermatology. I really do all aspects of anything 196 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 2: that you could think of that has to do with 197 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 2: the skin. So I practice in Hutson Yards in New 198 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 2: York City. I do cosmetics. That's your everything from your 199 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 2: lasers to your botox to your fillers. I do skin 200 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 2: cancer removals, I do skin checks, acne, psoriasis, pretty much everything. 201 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 3: So that's kind of what I do. 202 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 2: And I started creating content on social media about four 203 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 2: years ago, and it's really defined how I practice. I've 204 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 2: learned so much from people on the internet, what their 205 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 2: concerns are for the skin. It's informed what I do 206 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 2: in the office with my patients and kind of vice versa. 207 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,959 Speaker 2: So it's been interesting to see the world from both 208 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 2: lenses over the last four years. 209 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: I think that's so interesting because I think that content 210 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 1: creation on social media around skin and dermatology. Has guyrocketed 211 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: and really informed so many people to also then ask questions, 212 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: go see their dermatologists and just learn more. 213 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 4: At least for me, it has. 214 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: Do you find that when it comes to men, that 215 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: this has shifted the perspective of men and skincare in general? 216 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 3: Definitely. 217 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I think social media in general, especially the 218 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 2: way that the TikTok and now the Instagram Real and 219 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 2: YouTube short algorithm works, is they're showing you content from 220 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,719 Speaker 2: people that you don't follow, So you're learning all new 221 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 2: things and new interests that you never knew that you 222 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 2: had any idea that it would be something that you 223 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 2: would like. And I think men have now been exposed 224 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 2: to skincare, probably for the first time, and they're like, Wow, 225 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 2: this is pretty interesting and I do want better skin. 226 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 2: I just didn't know that it was accessible or how 227 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: to even start. So I think that social media has 228 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 2: created this niche of men that are very interested in 229 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 2: skincare and skin health in general. 230 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: What is the ratio of patients you have in the 231 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: city that come into your office. 232 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 4: Is it mostly women? Is it mostly man or is 233 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 4: it kind of even? 234 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 3: It's definitely not even. 235 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 2: It's mostly women, and it's true on my social media 236 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 2: platforms as well. It's about eighty percent women and about 237 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 2: twenty percent men. 238 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 4: Interesting, but I would. 239 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 2: Say that twenty percent men for like a skincare and 240 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 2: beauty creator, dermatology creator. 241 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 3: It's high is extremely. 242 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,119 Speaker 1: High, right, And so what are some of men's concerns 243 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: that you see coming into your office or in your DMS. 244 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 3: It very much is like problem solution. 245 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 2: Usually they have some issue that they want to improve 246 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,839 Speaker 2: that they've noticed, maybe their friends have pointed out, or 247 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 2: they noticed it in pictures, so they should come in 248 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 2: with something like you know, para loss is very common 249 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 2: for men, or I have dark circles. 250 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 3: I've always had dark circles. I want to improve that. 251 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 2: I think probably the majority, I would say like seventy 252 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 2: five percent are coming in with a particular concern to 253 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 2: the office for men, and then the other twenty five 254 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 2: percent that have this like less tangible concern. But it's 255 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 2: like it's almost like a skin health Like I just 256 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 2: want to have healthy skin, and I want to know 257 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 2: what I can be doing to have healthier skin for longer. 258 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: Are there certain misconceptions about men's skin that we've been 259 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: told kind of old wives tales that maybe that they 260 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: don't need to cleanse as much, that their skin is 261 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: tougher than women's. 262 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 4: You know what is true what isn't true. 263 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: Difference is wise in the skin. And we've looked at 264 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 2: these studies over time. There is some variation from study 265 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 2: to study, so it hasn't been consistent across like what 266 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 2: the differences are. But in general, men tend to have 267 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 2: oilier skin, especially like pre fifties, and that's pretty consistent 268 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 2: across the board, but some studies have said that they're 269 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 2: about exactly the same. Most studies show that men have 270 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 2: thicker skin, so more collagen, and then that collagen level 271 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 2: decreases linear with time. So basically from the age of 272 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 2: like twenty and on, like men start to lose collagen 273 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 2: at like a linear rate, where women they have like 274 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 2: a pretty much exponential drop off around menopause because of 275 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 2: the loss of estrogen and progesterone, and so in general 276 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 2: the drop off in collagen decreases more in women, and 277 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 2: also they tend to like have thinner skin at baseline 278 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 2: and less collagen at baseline. 279 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: So when you got into medicine, did you always know 280 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: that you wanted to be a dermatologist specifically, or what 281 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 1: drew you to the skin? 282 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: No, yeah, like I had a really kind of long 283 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 2: and convoluted pathway to get to this point. I initially 284 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: selected radiology out of med school. After a year, I realized, 285 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 2: like I missed seeing patients, and I applied to DRM 286 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 2: not knowing much about like what I was going to 287 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 2: get into. I just knew that I was like personally 288 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 2: passionate about skin and hair, and I was like, well, 289 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 2: it's something I have a hobby and so like, but why. 290 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 4: Were you passionate about it? What made you? 291 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 2: I did a good question. I don't know, like I was. 292 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 2: It's kind of hard to explain. But I don't know 293 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 2: if anyone's going to relate to this. 294 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 4: Where do you? 295 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 2: Where are you based out of just out of curious? Okay, 296 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 2: so you'll really you'll know what I'm talking about. So, 297 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 2: So I grew up in New York and I was 298 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 2: like part of that like Jim hand laundry generation. 299 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: Okay, as a Jersey girl and someone who watched MTV 300 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: in the early aughts, I totally get the reference. But 301 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: for those who don't know what Jim Tam laundry is, 302 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: it's originally from MTV's hit show The Jersey Shore, where 303 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: the guys on the show described their daily routine getting fit, 304 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: getting some sun, and taking care of their outfits. 305 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 4: Jim Tam Laundry. 306 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: The Jim Taanned Laundry crew is very much into skincare, 307 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: and you know, I feel right, they're very much into 308 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: their whole look. 309 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 2: Right exactly, Like, yeah, there was like the gateways into 310 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 2: things I always feel like, and I think hair was 311 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 2: sort of the gateway from me into skin. 312 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 4: So were you like a poly d situation. 313 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 2: I was, that's that's so like I realized the power 314 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 2: and confidence that a good haircut gave me when I 315 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 2: was like fifteen. You know, I got like a nice 316 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 2: haircut and I was like, well, like I feel like 317 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 2: I look good, I feel confident. And then I just 318 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 2: got like tasched this idea of like getting a nice haircut, 319 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 2: and so I would go to the same barber forever 320 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 2: and I would like really be like okay, like I'm 321 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 2: getting a haircut, like it's going to be a good 322 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 2: day for me. And then it became like eyebrows. This 323 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 2: was kind of like my natural progression. And then the 324 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 2: next step was like skincare it was like, oh, I 325 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 2: want Like I started to get acne, and then I 326 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 2: was like, I really want to have better skin, Like 327 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 2: I don't want to have acne. So to me, it 328 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 2: was like it was really just kind of like a 329 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 2: focus on my appearances and feeling confident in my own 330 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: hair and then my own skin. 331 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 3: And so that's kind of how I got there. 332 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 2: But I was part of that group of people who 333 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 2: cared a lot about hair first. 334 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 1: You know, I have an eight year old son and 335 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: he's obviously non skincare yet, but there is that trend 336 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: of kind of like the Sephora preteens very much into skincare, 337 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: like the girls cleaning out Sephora shelves. What would you 338 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: say is the right age when it comes to boys 339 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: preteens getting into a regiment, you know, acne. I think 340 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: there's a stigma around that even at such a young age. 341 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: Yet then they feel kind of embarrassed to start addressing it. 342 00:15:58,680 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, how would you approach that? 343 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 2: A lot of my like teenage male patients, they come 344 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 2: in and they're always like a lot of times their 345 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 2: parents will be kind of speaking for them interestingly. 346 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 4: So they'll how like, what age do they usually come in? 347 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: And probably around like fifteen sixteen, and they're really quiet 348 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 2: and they you know, they have bad acne usually and 349 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 2: their mom's like, he's a really bad acne. It really 350 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 2: bothers him. And the guys are always inevitably are like no, 351 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 2: like you know it, it's no big deal, like I 352 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 2: don't care, like it is what it is type of thing. 353 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 2: But you know, usually generally they're pretty compliant once you 354 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 2: give them something to use. Let's say you follow up 355 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: in two to three months, visit to visit. You just 356 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 2: see their personalities changing as their skin gets better. They're 357 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 2: more like interactive with you, and then they start to like, oh, well, 358 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 2: you know, like I have some acne scars, now like 359 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 2: what can I do? So like, once they start to 360 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 2: see progress, I think they really kind of enjoy it. 361 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 2: They're like, oh this is working and I actually do 362 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 2: feel better, and now I do want to talk about 363 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 2: my skin. I want my skin to even be even better. 364 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 2: So I think usually there's resistance to like accepting that 365 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 2: they actually care. They don't want to admit that, and 366 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 2: I think once they admit it and they know what 367 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 2: to do, they'll actually follow through and do it and 368 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 2: actually start to care more and more about their skin. 369 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 2: So watching that like shift from like I don't care 370 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 2: about this really bad acne to like, oh, this like 371 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 2: tiny little thing is bothering me. Now, Yeah, it was 372 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,239 Speaker 2: sort of an interesting and interesting shift. But I do 373 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 2: think like this whole sephoritein thing is totally gotten out 374 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 2: of hand. You have kids with like I've seen on TikTok, 375 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 2: like twenty step skincare routines. It's not good for the 376 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: skin to be using that many products at such a 377 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 2: young age because the more you're exposed to things are 378 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 2: more likely the order to develop, like sensitization and allergies. 379 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,479 Speaker 2: So for people like at a young age who are 380 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 2: now exposing themselves to so much and that's going to 381 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 2: have long lasting effects on how their skin reacts to 382 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 2: things in the future. 383 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: Right. Another thing is facial hair and beards. As far 384 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 1: as maintenance, what do you recommend? I mean, I just 385 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: remember with my dad pim splashing a very strong cologned 386 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: after shape onto his face and you know, it smells 387 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: the whole house smelled of it for like three days later. 388 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: I just can't imagine that could be good for your skin. 389 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 2: Some men put a lot of effort into this, especially 390 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 2: you have like a longer beard that you've been grown 391 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 2: for like a year. 392 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, you can get very very passionate. 393 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 4: About this badge of honor. 394 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 3: I guess it is, yeah, the thicker the beard. 395 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 2: But with facial hair, yeah, it is a little bit 396 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 2: more complex because one beards harbor tons of bacteria, So 397 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 2: men really need to like cleanse their beard thoroughly and 398 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 2: you can use your traditional facial cleanser on it. Now, 399 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 2: if you have a longer beard, I actually recommend that 400 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 2: you treat it like almost like scalp hair in the 401 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 2: sense that you would like shampoo and condition afterwards, and 402 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 2: then even potentially use a beard oil. 403 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 3: But if you have like a beard. 404 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 2: That's like mine, which is a three on the trimmer, 405 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 2: you could get away with like a traditional facial cleanser 406 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 2: at that point. And then you know, things that men 407 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 2: have with beards a lot of times that they deal 408 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 2: with is ingrown hairs and after care of the beard. 409 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 2: I really like glycolic acid exfolians just in general to 410 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 2: prevent ingrown hairs, and it doesn't have all that alcohol 411 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,959 Speaker 2: and fragrance that traditional after shapes would have in them, 412 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 2: but it's going to have that same benefit that you 413 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 2: would get from a traditional after shape. 414 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 4: Marketing can have a lot to do with it, right. 415 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can have the greatest product, but if you 416 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 2: don't know how to market it, then like nobody knows 417 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 2: about it and nobody will buy it. And so part 418 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 2: of the reason why like men's skincare, like in the 419 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 2: Men's Skincare Aisles, has become what it's become is because 420 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 2: they've found that it sells more if they do it 421 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 2: that way. Now, you could put the same product in 422 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 2: pink packaging and it would do the same exact thing. 423 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 2: It's just that probably men would feel like, oh, I 424 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 2: don't want to put this on my counter, And hopefully 425 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 2: we get to a day where you know, men don't 426 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 2: feel it they can't put a pink product on the counter. 427 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 2: But right now, I think we're still in that place, 428 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 2: right and we have to kind of take it where 429 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 2: it's at. So, in general, what you'll find in like 430 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,199 Speaker 2: the men's skincare aisles is like products that are like 431 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 2: in black or gray color tones. You'll find that a 432 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 2: lot of products are like more foaming, especially cleansers, because 433 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 2: consumer perception says that men prefer like a foaming cleanser. 434 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 2: You'll also find mint in products like that men Thal 435 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 2: feel men tend to prefer that, and so even though 436 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 2: it's not a good ingredient for the skin, you'll find 437 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 2: it in a lot of men's skincare products just because 438 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 2: they actually like and enjoy that experience a little bit 439 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: better than a tradation cleanser or moisturizer. 440 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 4: Well, thank you, doctor Shah, Thank you for taking the 441 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 4: time to chat. 442 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 3: Thank you so much. 443 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 1: However you present yourself to the world, you most likely 444 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: care about your skin, and that's a good thing.
