“I use coconut oil for everything.”

Us: 👎👎👎

We love versatility, but coconut oil can actually clog pores and trap bacteria, especially for acne-prone or sensitive skin. 🥥🚫

Ever seen a hair growing out of a mole and thought, “uh oh, cancer?” 😳

Good news — that’s actually not true! ✅
Moles often form where hair follicles live, so it’s totally normal for a little hair to grow through. Hair in a mole doesn’t mean it’s cancerous.

Still, it’s smart to keep an eye out for changes:
🟤 Asymmetry
🟤 Irregular borders
🟤 Multiple colors
🟤 Diameter larger than a pencil eraser
🟤 Evolving or changing

If you notice any of these, or if a mole starts itching, bleeding, or crusting — get it checked! Regular skin exams are key for peace of mind and prevention. 💛

Let’s talk about one of the simplest yet most powerful skincare staples: Vaseline (petrolatum). 💙

It’s a skin protectant, meaning it locks in moisture and helps repair your skin barrier, perfect for dry, chapped, or healing skin.

Derm-approved uses:
✨ Slugging (to seal in nighttime skincare)
👶 Baby-safe for irritation or diaper rash
💋 Healing cracked lips
💅 Soothing cuticles or rough elbows

Sometimes, less really is more.

At MOD Dermatology, we care about your whole health — not just your skin. Skin changes, such as dimpling, redness, or thickening, can sometimes be early signs of breast cancer. That’s why it’s important to not only stay on top of your yearly screenings, but also to pay attention to what your skin may be telling you.

💕 Early detection saves lives.
💕 Schedule your regular mammograms.
💕 Don’t ignore changes in your skin or body.

We stand with every fighter, survivor, and family touched by breast cancer. 💗

The 'sickly' season is upon us... Let's chat quick tips to prevent what you can during this time! Nobody wants to be under the weather during the “BER” months!

🥦Feed your body well, and stay hydrated! Green, leafy vegetables are rich in vitamins that help you maintain a balanced diet — and support a healthy immune system.

👟 Stay moving! Movement keeps inflammation and chronic disease at bay, reduces stress and the release of stress-related hormones accelerates the circulation of disease-fighting white blood cells.

🧼 Practice good hygiene! Wash hands often - under the nail as well, shower daily, carrying around an alcohol based hand cleaner wouldn't hurt either!

🦠 Get your flu shot, and make sure you are up to date with all your medical needs! If you haven't seen your doctor for awhile, then it's probably time.

Myth Monday! Let’s clear up a few skin myths you might not know are… well, myths!

❌ Myth: If your acne clears up with tanning or sun exposure, it’s actually helping.
✅ Truth: The sun can temporarily dry out breakouts, but UV damage inflames your skin, disrupts your barrier, and triggers more oil production—which can actually make acne worse over time. On top of that, sun exposure darkens post-acne marks (hyperpigmentation), so scars and spots stick around longer.

❌ Myth: Washing your face more often will keep it clear.
✅ Truth: Over-washing strips your skin barrier, causing irritation and even more breakouts. Gentle and consistent beats harsh and frequent.

❌ Myth: Only people with light skin need sunscreen.
✅ Truth: All skin tones are at risk for sun damage and skin cancer. Sunscreen is for everyone, every day.
