💋❄️ Dry, cracked lips don’t have to last until spring.

According to dermatologists from the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), you can have soft, healthy lips year-round, even in winter.

If your lips are chapped, here’s what dermatologists recommend:

🚫 Stop using lip products that burn, sting, or tingle.
That sensation means irritation — not “working.”
Avoid ingredients like:
• Menthol, camphor, eucalyptus
• Fragrance or flavoring (mint, cinnamon, citrus)
• Salicylic acid
• Phenol
• Chemical sunscreens like oxybenzone

✅ Look for healing ingredients instead:
• Petrolatum (white petroleum jelly)
• Ceramides
• Shea butter
• Mineral oil
• Dimethicone
• Zinc oxide or titanium dioxide (for SPF)

🌞 Yes — lips need SPF, even in winter!
Use a fragrance-free lip balm with SPF 30+ and reapply every 2 hours outdoors.

💧 More winter lip tips:
• Apply lip balm several times daily and before bed
• Drink plenty of water
• Stop licking, biting, or picking your lips
• Use a humidifier, especially at night

⏳ Most chapped lips improve in 2–3 weeks with proper care.
If they don’t — or if lips are persistently scaly, painful, or irritated — it may be time to see a dermatologist.

🌟Good news for patients with ECZEMA.🌟

A new study published in the British Journal of Dermatology found no difference in eczema symptoms between those who bathed every day and those who bathed just 1–2 times per week.

That means you can choose the routine that fits your lifestyle without worrying about making symptoms worse.

🧴Researchers also noted that their next step is to study the optimal use of topical steroid creams during eczema flare-ups.

✨ Takeaway:
Consistency in moisturizing and gentle skin care matters more than how often you bathe.

If you struggle with eczema and want a personalized routine, we’re here to help! 💙

🧬 Meet the next chapter in facial harmony.

Dr. Ginsburg is thrilled to announce the new FDA approval of Restylane Lyft for chin enhancement, designed to naturally improve the chin profile in adults 21+ with mild-to-moderate retrusion.

Why it matters: The chin plays a vital role in overall facial balance, jawline definition, and aesthetic symmetry. This advanced hyaluronic-acid gel was clinically shown to deliver visible improvements at 3 months (and maintain results at 12 months), with high satisfaction rates and a natural look.

➤ Real results.
➤ Minimal downtime.
➤ Backed by decades of safety data.

If you’ve been wondering how to refine your lower face, enhance your jawline, or bring balance to your profile — let’s talk. You deserve an aesthetic outcome that feels as natural as you are.

🌟 Let’s Talk About Accutane! 🌟

Struggling with stubborn, cystic acne that just won’t budge? You’ve probably heard the buzz about Accutane — and for good reason! 💊

Accutane (isotretinoin) isn’t your typical acne medication. It targets acne at the source, shrinking oil glands, reducing inflammation, and helping prevent future breakouts for long-lasting clear skin. 🙌

But—Accutane isn’t a one-size-fits-all treatment. It requires:
✅ A thorough consultation
✅ Regular monitoring
✅ Consistent follow-ups with your dermatologist

If you’ve tried other acne treatments with little success, it may be time to talk to Dr. Ginsburg — “The Legend in the Lab Coat” 👨‍⚕️✨ about whether Accutane is right for you.
