Looking back on this incredible day with gratitude and inspiration💕…

The L’Oréal event reminded us that beauty isn’t just about what you see; it’s about the stories, the resilience, and the confidence that women carry with them every day.

From powerful conversations to unforgettable moments, it was a celebration of womanhood in its truest form; and of course, witnessing Ama Qamata’s introduction as one of the new ambassadors - what a moment to remember!

💬 If your skin could talk, it would remind you that there are no overnight fixes; consistency is key.

Sun exposure, breakouts, dryness, and hormonal changes all leave biological marks. Daily SPF protects against UVA and UVB damage, while moisturizers strengthen the skin barrier and maintain hydration.

Every signal your skin sends has a reason; and using evidence-based, clinically proven skincare allows you to respond effectively, not react blindly.

Prevention is better than cure. Your skin remembers, and the care you give it today will pay off tomorrow.

Pregnancy is a beautiful yet complex chapter for the skin. Beneath the glow lies a delicate hormonal dance that influences everything from pigmentation to oil balance and elasticity.

It’s why some women develop melasma, stretch marks, or breakouts; not as flaws, but as signs of a body working overtime to sustain new life. Increased blood flow gives that radiant flush, while shifting hormones can heighten sensitivity and alter your skin’s usual rhythm.

These changes are normal, temporary, and deeply physiological. Gentle care, consistent hydration, and daily sun protection can help your skin navigate this transition gracefully.

Your skin isn’t misbehaving - it’s evolving with you💫.

Unfortunately, I Do Love… ✨

The little things that make me, me. From simple skincare routines I can’t resist, to scrolling through SkinTok (even when most things make me cringe 😅), to treating teenagers and discovering their fascinating stories ; and yes, sometimes relying on low dose isotretinoin once in a while to keep skin glowing.

Dermatology isn’t just a profession, it’s a passion. And sometimes that passion comes with confessions we just can’t help but share.

Which ones do you love too? Share your “Unfortunately, I do love…” story below 👇🏽

Acne is a multifactorial condition, yet it is frequently misunderstood. Common misconceptions include that it only affects adolescents or that oily skin alone determines breakouts - both are incorrect.

Acne can persist into adulthood, affecting patients in their 20s, 30s, and even 40s. Its recurrence is influenced by hormonal fluctuations, sebum production, inflammatory pathways, lifestyle factors, stress, and genetic predisposition. Recognizing these underlying mechanisms is essential for effective management and long-term skin health.

Evidence-based interventions, tailored to each patient’s unique physiology, remain the cornerstone of treatment. Understanding your skin is the first step toward optimal outcomes.

Winter Tip ❄️: Constant heat exposure, like hot water bottles or heaters, can cause a skin condition called Erythema Ab Igne (EAI) — showing up as a net-like rash or skin discolouration.

If you notice this, reduce heat exposure and visit your nearest dermatologist.

💫Today we honour the fathers and father figures whose love, leadership, and legacy shape generations.

As Reed Markham beautifully put it:
“The quality of a father can be seen in the goals, dreams, and aspirations he sets not only for himself but for his family.”

To the men who lead by example, nurture with strength, and inspire with quiet wisdom, thank you and happy Father's Day. 💙

Honouring Freedom Day 🇿🇦

This year, Freedom Day fell on a Sunday, but we continue the celebration today as we observe it on Monday. A powerful reminder that freedom is not just about what we gain; it’s about how we uplift and respect others in the process.

"For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others." — Nelson Mandela

May we continue to build a future rooted in dignity, equality, and respect for all ✨
