Fall Skin Reset: Repair, Rehydrate, and Restore

Описание: 🍂 Your skin doesn’t follow the calendar—it follows the weather.

In this episode of Derm-It Trotter! Don’t Swear About Skincare, host Dr. Shannon C. Trotter is joined by Raquel Merlini, RN, CANS, a certified aesthetic nurse specialist who blends years in plastics with a coach’s mindset to make seasonal skincare practical and personal. Together, they break down how to transition from summer’s lightweight layers to a fall skincare routine that restores hydration, protects the barrier, and corrects post-sun pigment—without triggering irritation.

✨ What you’ll learn in this episode:

The ultimate “fall cleanup”: what to store, what to spotlight, and how to adjust product textures as humidity drops.

How to hydrate by skin type—why oily skin still needs water, and why mature or menopausal skin craves ceramides and richer creams.

Smart retinoid strategies: choosing strengths, buffering with moisturizer, and building tolerance on a sustainable schedule.

Why UVA protection still matters in fall and winter, and how tinted mineral SPFs and iron oxides defend against visible light.

Treatment tips for post-summer brown spots and melasma: vitamin C, hydroquinone cycles, tranexamic and azelaic acids, and managing heat exposure.

The best in-office procedures for the season—chemical peels, IPL, microneedling, and CO₂ resurfacing—and how to plan for balanced, photo-smart results.
