Ask The Doctor

by

People are always curious as to what skincare products I am using or what makes up my current diet.  A few of the most frequent questions I get are what is my own personal skin care routine consist of what is my diet/exercise plan.  My current skincare routine consists of washing with one of the Perricone MD cleansers like Nutritive Cleanser with Alpha Lipoic Acid.  I follow this with Serum Prep as a toner, and then I finish with Acyl-Glutathione.  In terms of eating, I follow the anti-inflammatory diet and enjoy weight training, running and yoga.

What is your current skincare routine?

    • Hi Jimena. If you are looking to prevent or correct signs of aging around the chin and neck, then it is a great fit. Remember, it is easier to prevent than correct damage.

  1. Hello Dr. Perricone, My question is regarding skincare post chemotherapy. I am a breast cancer survivor, my last round of chemo was March 4th 2010. Everyone says post chemo patients need to be careful with skin care products because of the chemo and all the chemicals in our bodies. What would you suggest for those of us cancer suvivors and our skin care? Thanks, Shell y

The area under my eyes looks hollow and, at times , dark. I wish that we could buy all your products and make payments.Its too expensive for me to use the whole program.

    • Hi Marianne. To dramatically improve your eye area, try the Vitamin C Ester Serum and Acyl Glutathione Eye Lid Serum. This is a great combination and will work to hydrate and brighten your entire eye area.

  5. I do use the vitamin c ester serum.I will try the
    acyl glutathione for the eyes. What do you suggest for around the mouth?Would electric stim help the sagging mouth area?

    • Hi Marianne. Electro Stim is a great option for the face. Around the mouth, try applying the Perricone MD Deep Wrinkle Serum followed by Acyl Glutathione face. It helps to firm and treat the appearance of creases.

  6. I’ve been using baby oil on my eyes for years and I’ve never had that peblorm. Actually, I find that it moisturizes my eye area, and I’ve never experienced clogged pores.
