Struggling with Oily Skin? Dermatologists Explain How to Control It Effectively

In this episode of After Hours Skin Clinic, Dr Emma Craythorne is joined by fellow dermatologist Dr Ellie Rashid to dive deep into the truth about oily skin. From genetics and hormones to your microbiome and even your diet, they break down what’s really going on beneath the surface.
