Dr. Amy Wechsler & Zoe Wechsler: How to Finally Clear Your Skin (What a Top Dermatologist Actually Suggests)

Dr. Amy Wechsler is one of the only doctors in the world who is both a board-certified dermatologist and a psychiatrist, and in this episode, she and her daughter and co-founder of Spotless Clinics, Zoe, make it impossible to think about skin the same way again.

We get into:

1. Why stress breaks down your collagen faster than almost anything else, and what cortisol is actually doing to your face

2. The truth about Accutane: the myths, the real side effects, and why it can actually cure acne for life

3. How to use tretinoin correctly, because most people are doing it completely wrong

4. Spironolactone, hormonal acne, and what dermatologists actually prescribe for women

5. The diet-acne connection most people swear by, and why the science says otherwise

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by skincare advice and had no idea who to actually trust — this is the episode.
