This bonus episode was inspired by the huge listener response to our previously-released show, “Why acne is more than skin deep”, featuring Scott McGlynn and Izzie Rodgers. We knew we had to dive deeper into the subject of skincare and so called on Dr Ifeoma Ejikeme for an expert Q&A session. The founder and director of Adonia Medical Clinic in London, Dr Ejikeme is a medical consultant, advanced cosmetic doctor and passionate skin expert. Here she answers questions sent in by Taboo Talk listeners on everything from redness, rosacea and red veins, to blackheads, pores, age spots and dark circles.
