Skin & Beyond

In this episode, we have our very own Dr Miray talking about hairloss.

Hairloss diagnosis and management can be complex, it is important to see a medical professional who specialises in this field. Dr Miray is a dermatologist and trichologist(hair loss specialist), so we ask her all the common questions and where to get started if you are suffering from hair and scalp conditions.

Welcome back! It has been a few months since our last episode, but we are back with a bang. We are noticing trend-setting celebrities, such as Kim K, start to look different. It looks like we are entering a new era of body image, and with that comes new surgical and non-surgical requests. We discuss what we are starting to see in our clinics and the health implications of keeping up with surgical and non-surgical trends.
