What is your skincare philosophy? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Turegano: <\/em>My goal is to help people feel confident and comfortable with their skin\u2014not <\/em>to make people feel self-conscious about not using all the skincare that exists out there. That can vary from person to person. Some people benefit from an intricate, multistep routine with selfcare practices like the use of facial devices or performing facial massage<\/a>\u2014not only because of the potential skin benefits, but because of how it makes them feel. Others just need basic cleansing<\/a> and moisturizing<\/a>. But of course I do still recommend that everyone wear sunscreen<\/a> regularly to prevent skin cancer.\u00a0In general, I don\u2019t want people to feel like they need to do a lot to get healthy skin. The way they view their skin is more important to me, and if people have certain goals they want to achieve, I\u2019m here to help guide you.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How has your career in dermatology influenced your personal view on aging? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Turegano: <\/em>I see patients of all age ranges, but a huge group is over the age of 60. I\u2019ve learned that aging is inevitable and is something we should embrace. Aging is truly a privilege, and I learn so much from those who have experienced things that I never have and respect the journeys that they\u2014and their skin\u2014have gone through.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walk us through your routine these days\u2014how has it changed compared to your 20s?  <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Turegano: <\/em>Given that I know a lot more about skincare and have access to more skincare goods, my routine is more involved now than my 20s<\/a>. Before my dermatology residency, all I did was wash my face with a salicylic acid cleanser<\/a> and use petroleum jelly on my face at night. I don\u2019t even think I did anything in the morning besides wash my face with water. Once I got in my late 20s, I started using sunscreen<\/a> in the morning and added an adapalene prescription cream at night along with a moisturizer<\/a>.\u00a0My current routine may seem like overkill to some, but as a derm, I enjoy using skincare and pairing ingredients that work well together.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the best parts of being in your 30s and what are some of the learning curves you\u2019ve experienced? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Turegano: <\/em>In my 30s, I\u2019ve learned to be comfortable in who I am as a person. I\u2019ve learned to find my voice and stance and focus less on what other people think. I also feel more confident in how I practice medicine, and gain great satisfaction from relationships with my patients. I can\u2019t fix everything, but giving a patient the comfort of knowing that they have someone who supports them is the most fulfilling aspect. Additionally, as I\u2019ve treated more and more patients, I\u2019ve learned how sometimes the smallest changes you make in your everyday life now can make such great impacts later on in life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your mother, Michiko,<\/a> is a recurring figure in your content, are there any skincare tips you\u2019ve learned from her along the way? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Turegano: <\/em>I think her biggest tip actually isn’t product-related\u2014it’s focusing on your mental state<\/a> and outlook on life. She has the humor of a teenager and is always making my sisters and I laugh. Even though she is 74, she also feels like she can accomplish anything she puts her mind to. When it comes to actual skincare, I learned the importance of sunscreen<\/a> at a young age. She has encouraged sunscreen since I was little. I didn\u2019t actually follow this advice initially, but have of course come to appreciate it more as an adult. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re dying to know\u2014what are the top 5 most important things in your vanity right now and why? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Turegano:\u00a0<\/em>A few musts that come to mind are a serum that encourages cell renewal<\/a> and supports collagen and elastin levels; a vitamin C<\/a> formula that combines other antioxidants; and a cleansing oil that can help remove makeup. I also love Skintap<\/a> tretinoin\u2014it’s a compounded tretinoin cream that also contains an antioxidant called resveratrol, as well as hyaluronic acid. Two of my friends from residency and I started Skintap<\/a> as a way to make prescription meds more accessible to people, so I\u2019m also proud to be part of this venture.\u00a0Then the last one is a secret, but I\u2019ve been testing out a really cool facial device that includes microcurrent and LED technology, as well as some novel features. Stay tuned to my social<\/a> to hear more about this soon!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, what\u2019s your most essential advice for the next generation? For skincare, life, anything! <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Turegano: <\/em>For skincare, removing makeup<\/a> at night and wearing sunscreen<\/a> in the morning will have major downstream impact, kind of forever\u2014trust me on this! For life, try not to worry so much, believe that everything will work out. Don\u2019t spend too much energy caring about the small stuff or what others think about you. Focus on your growth and peace<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
