Love your Skin Roberta Del Campo, M.D., founder and owner ofv Del Campo Dermatology & Laser Institute, shares some important skin care tips Words by Roberta Del Campo, M.D Prevention before correction Early use of mineral-based sunscreen is a must. We start accruing damage from the day we are born. The more sun damage accrued over time, the more collagen is lost, meaning more wrinkles and worn, rough skin texture and the higher the risk for various skin cancers. This is much harder to treat than to just prevent in the first place. Skin care regimens do not have to be complicated A simple but effective regimen is the key. My essentials include a mineral-based sunblock applied regularly (daily and every 2 hours at a minimum if outside), a topical antioxidant serum in the morning (vitamin C serums are my favorite), and a topical retinol or retinoid nightly. From the inside A well balanced, low glycemic index diet helps keep skin inflammation to a minimum which is especially important for inflammatory skin conditions such as acne, rosacea, eczema, and psoriasis. In addition, biotin and iron are helpful for strong, thick hair and nails. Further, recent studies have shown that the risk of skin cancer can be lowered by taking a daily niacinamide supplement, quite interesting in my opinion and very new, hot topic. Del Campo Dermatology & Laser Institute offers individualized treatment plans to give you a personalized experience. With the latest and most effective treatments in the industry, Dr. Del Campo offers a wide variety of treatments, including medical skin checks, treatment of acne, rashes and skin cancers, aesthetic injectable treatments, laser treatments, and skincare regimen development.
