Can your diet actually make your skin age faster? Dermatologist Dr. Dray breaks down the connection between nutrition and skin aging, including whether sugar really damages collagen, how glycation and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) may contribute to skin aging, and whether you need to worry about the natural sugar found in fruit. Glycation and AGEs are an active area of research in skin aging, but the relationship is more complicated than simply saying that sugar "destroys collagen."

In this video, Dr. Dray explains what she would prioritize in a skin-supportive diet, including vegetables, whole fruit, legumes, whole grains, plant-based starches, protein, nuts, and seeds. She also discusses foods and dietary habits worth limiting, including processed meats, heavily charred foods, highly processed convenience foods, excessive sodium, and frequent snacking.

Dr. Dray also explains why she does not recommend fearing carbohydrates or eliminating fruit simply because it contains sugar, and why cooking more meals at home can make it easier to build a nourishing dietary pattern.

In this video:

• Can sugar cause skin aging and wrinkles?
• What is glycation and how does it affect collagen?
• Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and skin aging
• Why vegetables are important for healthy skin
• Why you don't need to fear whole fruit
• The benefits of beans, lentils, and other legumes
• Whole grains and nourishing carbohydrates
• Why potatoes, plantains, and cassava can be part of a healthy diet
• Red meat and processed meat
• Heavily charred foods and AGEs
• Why cooking at home can help improve your diet
• How much sodium are you getting?
• Constant snacking vs. nourishing meals
• Olive oil, nuts, and seeds
• Foods to eat more often for healthy aging
• How nutrition and overall health can influence your skin

Can you use retinoids on your neck? Dermatologist Dr. Dray explains why the neck can be much more sensitive to tretinoin, retinol, adapalene, and other retinoids than the face, and how to introduce a retinoid without causing unnecessary irritation, redness, peeling, or burning.

In this video, Dr. Dray discusses retinoids for neck aging, including how topical retinoids may improve signs of photoaging, fine lines, wrinkles, and texture. Clinical research has also investigated topical tretinoin for acanthosis nigricans, a condition that commonly causes darker, thicker, velvety skin on the neck.

The video also covers poikiloderma of Civatte and cutis rhomboidalis nuchae, two conditions associated with chronic sun damage that can affect the appearance and texture of the neck.

Dr. Dray explains how to start a retinoid on the neck, why a lower concentration or less frequent application may be appropriate, how moisturizer can help with tolerability, and why more irritation does not mean a retinoid is working better.

In this video:

• Can you use tretinoin on your neck?
• Retinol vs. tretinoin for neck aging
• Why the neck is more sensitive to retinoids
• How to introduce a retinoid to the neck
• How often should you use retinoids on your neck?
• Tretinoin for acanthosis nigricans
• Retinoids for poikiloderma of Civatte
• Cutis rhomboidalis nuchae and chronic sun damage
• How to minimize retinoid irritation
• Why sunscreen is essential for neck aging
• When dark or thickened neck skin should be evaluated by a dermatologist

In this skincare Q and A, dermatologist Dr. Dray answers questions from followers about ingrown hairs and scars, nasolabial folds, tretinoin purging, Differin (adapalene), double cleansing, minoxidil foam, neck aging, alcohol-based sunscreens, Amlactin, and seborrheic dermatitis and hair loss.

Dr. Dray explains what can and cannot improve scars left behind by digging at ingrown hairs, treatment options for nasolabial folds, and why what looks like a tretinoin "purge" may actually be irritation or dryness. She also discusses switching from retinol to Differin, how micellar water works in a double cleansing routine, and why minoxidil foam can leave the hair feeling dry, stiff, or brittle.

The video also covers whether facial exercises can prevent platysmal bands and neck sagging, Dr. Dray's favorite alcohol-based gel sunscreen, why Amlactin Daily Nourish may have a runnier consistency, and whether seborrheic dermatitis can contribute to hair loss.
