[@beniciaalfred739]

You are so sweet Doctor.V. Thank you so much.❤️

[@MissKHYT1]

Is red light therapy a problem for melanated skin if one otherwise does NOT have an issue with melasma (and interested in it for recovery and anti-aging)

[@dintlemolope332]

You’re lowkey the 5th most important person in my life right now!!! Your channel has been life changing.

[@vanitarattan]

Aww ☺️🧡

[@WW-ob7ek]

Are you her cousin?

[@shr3970]

Dr V pleaseeee make a complete underarm routine for SOC targeting people who have all these three things at once which are 1. excessive sweating and odour 2. hyperpigmentation and spots 3. excessive hair growth

[@solitasinsinnetti2024]

Be Minimalist have an amazing underarm roller with AHA and my body odour has gone completely. Its cheap and last forever Im not even half way through and Ive been using it every day for a month.

[@jeanninegorden8142]

I am an African American physical therapist. Red Light Therapy has been used for many purposes for years. It's just not popular due to the cost. I can't speak for the benefits of the skin, but red light works well for pain, inflammation and other medicinal uses. I use my red light on a regular basis and it is effective. A while back I had a very mild ankle strain from doing lots of walking due to an unexpected situation and wearing sandals. I used my red light when I got home and my ankle pain was gone by the morning.

[@shr3970]

Thank you for this video! Can you please make a video covering nails safety for SOC overall including nail polish, gel, acrylics, use of LED lamps, UV lamps, feet nails, etc.?

[@HereDiianas]

Yes I have a friend who told me that her Dermatologists told her that they see more skin cancer on the hands in France. I am French. And they're pretty sure it's due to LED use for gel bail polishes. Would like to know if the suspicion is the same in the UK.

[@jennyfronda-douglas6934]

Free shipping but for Canada 🇨🇦 there will be a $45 import fee when delivered by post . So you expensive.

[@Mangakuray]

I am very concerned about these nail treatments where the polish is dried under uv lamps. While most people talk about the dangers of uv light, I think the ingredients that make the gel and acrylic polishes are even more of a danger. I think there must be some sort of uv resin type ingredients in there, which are sensitisers and lead to severe allergic reactions eventually. Like you may be fine using these polishes for years then all of a sudden you are allergic to them. But the allergy in this is not limited to the polish itself.. it makes you allergic to normal chemicals like in skincare etc. i have worked with synthetic polymers and I know how dangerous the sensitisation can be. That’s why I have never had any of these nail treatments. The dangers in this case are for all people, whether Caucasian or skin of colour.

[@natukundamercy5049]

Nothing has ever been able to keep acne away for me except red light therapy, not even tretinion. I hyperpigment extremely easily but it didn’t cause any hyperpigmentation for me. Red light therapy is the best thing I have discovered this year

[@BeautifullyNomdora]

Mind sharing what device you’re using please?

[@japandi7098]

I've been using a red light therapy panel from Future Form Official, which my dermatologist recommended. It's made a noticeable difference in my skin texture and reduced wrinkles. However, I find it frustrating that there's so much conflicting information out there about different skin treatments. It’s hard to know what really works. Thanks for sharing such helpful information! 🌟

[@KC-rs8mg]

I am of Indian ethnicity with significant melasma on my cheeks and forehead. I use a red light mask and it hasn’t made my melasma worse. It’s really improved by pores and dark circles. Hope this is helpful to anyone.

[@Anarose11]

Hello! Your comment is really helpful as I’m Indian too and have slight melasma. Which company do you use?(trying hard to not buy a scammy product 😭)

[@laurasmith1831]

This is exactly the information I’ve been looking for. I was on the fence about getting a red light device for the face because of having melasma, now I know not to waste my money. Thank you so much.!

[@shr3970]

Can you do a video on these treatments done at clinic such as hydrafacial, led light therapy, and so many more other ones! Very confusing! Thank you

[@vanitarattan]

Absolutely 💜💜

[@ramhyaramhya1637]

Launch the mineral sunscreen in India soon in the skin renew range

[@amallibeckham2726]

This actually happened to my sister. She was so disappointed. But, again, we people of colour continue to jump on to the next best thing with all it promises.

[@DumindaAkalanka]

Dr. V,,,Can you please please do a video on clinical treatments such microneedling, PrP for deep acne pitted scars that are safe for skin of color???

[@unnatiagrawal871]

second this, would be interested in a video on this as well!!

[@belle2882]

Morpheus forma treatments as well

[@cbrooke16]

Just clicked on this. Been waiting for you to speak on this. So exciting to watch this!! Thanks Dr. V!!! ❤️🤗🙏🏽

[@vanitarattan]

🙏🏽🧡

[@PNPN09]

I feel like you are going to come up with your own version of light therapy soon as you know that it’s very popular. Let’s stay tuned……

[@idalarsson4729]

Thank you so much Dr V, you saved me quite a lot of money by doing this video! Instead I now can use it towards one or two of your kits! 💕

[@hanuua368]

I love you Dr. V !!! Doc, is Paula’s Choice 6% Mandelic Acid + 2% Lactic Acid liquid Exfoliatiant approved to use? Also, I have acne prone skin with Hyperpigmentation. I use your trio blemish kit and eye cream. I have ordered your dark circles kit recently so how do I use all this together? Also, I have your facial pigmentation kit. I used it for 6+ months and I didn’t see any difference 😭😭😭 what do I do?? I have really dark hyperpigmentation on my nasolabial folds and on the corner of my lips. Please help 🙏🙏🙏

[@kathleenhogue4320]

I came here for this information. I've seen them all over my IG feed. I will not be purchasing a red light therapy mask, based on your review. Thank you!

[@serita-gayelevy6543]

Does this also mean it would make any other type of hyperpigmentation darker also?

[@sarixnotxsari]

Thank you for your research!! Can you please do a video on “baby Botox” for people in their 20s? I want to get it but idk how it will affect my melanated skin. I was going to invest in an expensive mask but now I won’t.

[@HereDiianas]

Hi! But what about other hyperpimentation issues due to previous acne or just overall uneven skin tone? Will it make thing worse? Thanks

[@user-mc5qu6tw1y]

Is true I tried only one time and I saw right away I saw dark spots got worse thanks for information you always right

[@deotimaghosh9846]

Hello Dr.V. I have a question. As I usually don't wear anything except sunscreen on my face in the morning, do I still need to double cleanse with micellar water and the skin renew face wash from Derma Co or should I just use the skin renew face wash once to cleanse my face in the evening and continue with the rest of the skin renew range?

[@vanitarattan]

Yes please double cleanse 💕

[@Mangakuray]

I had the same experience as Dr V with the red light device. I felt it made the hyperpigmentation worse on my cheeks.

[@raashmi5126]

Dr.V Please make a video on how to treat and heal contact dermatitis. Been suffering from it for the past 3 months.

[@vanitarattan]

Will do x

[@amberq4515]

Been using red light light therapy for almost 2 years now and it actually helped with my melasma and I’m SOC. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@vanitarattan]

I'm really glad it's gone this way for you 🙏🏽🧡

[@Mangakuray]

I had the same experience as Dr V. It made my hyperpigmentation worse. I used it only 3 days though but stopped because I felt it was getting darker.

[@seblewengelgetachew7764]

How about green and blue light therapy?

[@mellowyellow375]

Hi Dr V, is green light therapy a better alternative and could you recommend any brands? Thanks 😊

[@089_snehasugumar4]

Caught u in a sec drV Im here to thank u for ur derma co products that are launched in india... I've been using it and they are fabulous 😍. A sunscreen could be a good addition to the range. Thanks for ur work❤

[@vanitarattan]

Yes🎉

[@shr3970]

Dr V does your body range help with back acne AND the hyper-pigmented spots from back acne?

[@Lu-bk1qq]

Dr V, I have been using the Dr Dennis Gross LED mask almost daily (3 minutes) since 2021 and it has completely changed the quality of my skin. I really love it but now I am nervous that it could cause problems 😩 I don’t have melasma and neither does anyone in my family so maybe I’m in the clear

[@AlitaMee]

Wow thanks a lot for making this video. You are a blessing for all of us soc people

[@abhaghosh2247]

Lots of love from India❤ While using your lip pigmentation kit, should I wash off the scrub from my lips and then apply the mask and balm? And when should I stop using the kit?

[@ap3910]

I have the Current Body mask, im black and have been using it religiously about 3x per wk a every 6 week and it's transformed my skin!!!! I dont have melasma but i do have hypopigmentaion from bad laser treatment years ago. Microneedling and great skin care products have helped even my skin tone, my LED mask has DEFINITELY improved my skin over the last 6 months since i bought it. If you dont have melasma its EXCELLENT!

[@lifepath6187]

Mito red device is awesome based in Arizona

[@tresajoseph5371]

Hi Dr V, the new lunch with Dermaco did not work on my acne prone skin. I used the moisturiser and the toner. It felt sticky and sweaty after use.

[@cher-ker]

Thank You so Much My Fav SOC Doc ,It is so Awesome ,Incredible and Beneficial to Have A Truthful, Factual and Honest SOC Doc to Advise Us correctly and accurately on skincare 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👌 Stay Blessed Always Dr V ❤🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🇿🇦

[@samiraasad804]

Hi Dr V Hope you are well and safe. I requested you to do a video on face massages/yoga several times. Please make a video or answer my comment if it is recommended for skin of colour or not. Thanks Keep up the good work. I wish you were around when I was young. My skin has never been so amazing. All thanks to you. God bless you and your family.

[@vanitarattan]

Thank you, I will make this video 💕💜

[@helenaxxxx5015]

I use the current body red light therapy and I had the same issue, pigmentation would get darker BUT once I stopped using it 5 days a week I saw so much improvement, I now use it on and off 3 sometimes 2 times a week and see so many results. I would never stop using but I also wouldn't use it everyday

[@ZayMorales-ew8rf]

Can you make a video on Fitzpatrick’s? Also, can you do any more high and skin care brands for example, skin script, RX, ZO, skin health, PCA, skin, jelly, mask, even going over the chemical peels and enzyme mask.

[@--RBuo84]

YES! I used a professional Red Light Therapy "tanning" bed without UV: Beauty Angel C46. What happened? The party that touched the "tanning" bed and started sweating got tanned/hyperpigmented! Now I have a mark on the backside of my body: my back, bum, legs - and I am trying to get rid of it since one month. I wonder if Green Light Therapy is better?

[@rozb1049]

Dr V thanks for the video. What are your thoughts on red light therapy for hair growth for skin of color?

[@unnatiagrawal871]

interested in this as well!

[@TheAdmiredb727]

gosh!!! And I was JUST about to purchase a subscription to red light therapy for the entire body. I don’t suffer from melasma, but it’s not worth risking. 😞😞😞

[@user-ij7ph7ki5x]

Hi Dr. v, please review Numbuzin serum, creams and moisturiser. Egarly waiting.Thank you

[@shenycampos8566]

Thank you for all you do even putting your skin at risk!! 💛💛

Hlo mam... Mam pls suggest me a good sunscreen for oily skin in indian market...

[@malavikamadhu9544]

Doctor, could you make a new video about Conscious Chemist? They updated their packaging like you mentioned. Also, please talk about their sunscreen.❤️.

[@ShreyaShreya-ux7bd]

Hey dr V, Can you please make a video on Korean skin care routine with non-comedogenic products for different skin types. Please…. Thank you!!

[@Kindacuriousabtthings]

HEYYY DR. V! In one of ur latest videos (TEEN acne & scars) u mentioned smth abt a moisturiser with retinol. Just wanna clarify, can I use it as a 14 year old? And also how can I get rid of mild but stubborn acne (black heads and sebacous filaments) I am using the ordinary's sally acid recently, but a medical esthetician also recommended the ordinary's gran retanoid 2% emulsion. And also some derms recommended adapelene 0.1% but that isn't available over-the-counter in the country I live in :( so can the gran retanoid be a replacement for the adapelene?? AAAAAAAAHHHH AND ALSO U LOOOOKKK SOOOOOOOOOOO PRETTYYYYY!!!!!!!!!😊

[@vanessaaa4289]

Dr V, thank you so much for sharing this video! I bought the CurrentBody a few weeks ago and had the exact experience, my melasma definitely looked worse. I thought I was seeing things! I decided it wasn't worth it and used the money back guarantee to return the face mask. I did buy the neck device from the same company instead and I'm hoping that the outcome will be different.

[@vanitarattan]

Glad it was helpful 💕💕

[@Kav685]

Hi dr v what about using a red light for hair? Is it safe to stimulate hair follicles?

[@lupitamaldonado5699]

Thank you 🙏🏻 Dr.V ,please can you do a video what creams can we use to correct the texture,wrinkles onto the neck ,Love 💕 your work and your channel

[@MusicaErika]

This is very useful, thank you so much for this research and tried you did for us, I appreciate you.

[@chiboyshades7817]

Hi there Dr. V! Your work is very appreciated. May I ask, would the mask for only the eyes be useful for someone who indeed would like to tackle just the wrinkle and fine lines in that area, or would is still be damaging to Skin of Color? Thanks in advance.

[@vanitarattan]

I’ll do a video xx

[@glowwithmebri]

hi doctor! thanks for talking about this topic as both myself and my clients love red led 😭 is this across the board for pigmentation issues or specifically melasma? for instance, i have some minimal PIH but would like continue using my at home red led wand and would love to know your opinion 😊

[@shr3970]

Can you recommend a good lash growth serum that creates thick and long growth in lashes?

[@vanitarattan]

I’ll investigate 💕

[@Mangakuray]

Dr V! I have started using tretinoine (very very low dose). I feel as if it is making my melasma worse. Can this happen with vitamin A?

[@libbymathew3134]

Thank you for this very informative and educational video! Please make more like this :)

Hi Dr, im using your products. Can i use it with red light after applying your products? And im worried does it mean red light might trigger/ cause dark spots/ melasma in the future with constant use?

Hi Dr V what benzoyl peroxide cleanser do you recommend for underarm odour?

[@aashmeetkaur4996]

Hello Dr.V!! Thank you for the advice. I was hoping to get a little detail on what exactly is halal vegan collagen for vegetarian people. Since it's super confusing and i'm not sure what does it even mean, it'd be of great help if you can explain in depth. Looking forward for your reply. 😊🙂

[@YvonneBessinger]

Thank you, good to know!

[@foz2071]

Thanks for answering my questions! I really want to know if you would consider specialising in dermatology as a doc? Is it something that you would like to do or don't feel you need to? I think you're amazing but have always wondered X

Hi Dr V, Thank you so much for all you do for SOC family. I had been using tritinion for past couple years but I couldn’t get the prescription and it has been expensive. So I am thinking for using retinol which is easily available and cheaper. Will it be safer for me to switch?

[@danarobinson1233]

Help Dr. V! Please direct me to a product that reduce or eliminate skin texture. I have oily skin and the texture makes my skin look worse than it is. What causes the textured look anyway? Because exfoliating ( physical and chemical) has not helped me
