Webster, TX | Protecting Your Skin with Dr. Joe | Clear Lake Dermatology
Transcription
Dr. Joe: During the summertime, and spring and summertime, everyone's going to be going outdoors. This is a great time to review good skin safety habits. Of course, you want to stay as covered up as much as you can, a good wide-brimmed hat, clothing that has SPF or UPF protection in there as well. Sunscreen is super important, you want to wear something at least SPF 35 or greater. A lot of dermatologists like myself are very in favor of mineral-based sunscreens which are based on zinc and titanium.
Dr. Joe: The other thing I highly recommend is, there's actually a pill you can take called Heliocare, and it's essentially sun protection in a pill. It's a super antioxidant called polypodium leucotomos, where once you take it, it goes straight into your skin to protect your skin cells in high concentration. That's a unique property of that compared to other types of antioxidants that we take or ingest. The polypodium leucotomos will protect your skin cells from burning as easily, and any kind of UV damage you do get is repaired by the antioxidant as well.
Friendly & thorough. Saw to my needs so I can be on my way to recovery. Thank you Doctor & Staff! Janis Burge
My experience was great. I went in for first time filler,(lips). Ms.Stephanie is who performed my treatment & I am SO satisfied. She as well as her assistants were very thorough throughout my whole process, from the questions I had to the way tx was being performed. Well deserved 5 stars! 🌟
Excellent visit with Dr Raimer. Both professional and personable. Highly recommend.
1st time visit and was very pleased, front desk was polite and professional, and came to hear what exactly what I needed for my sunburn /Melasma
I pulled some weeds in my backyard, without gloves like a fool!, and ended up with a painful/itchy rash all over my hands. I was seen within a couple hours of when I called and started medication last night. The larger blisters have already gone down so I’m confident I’ll feel and look better in another week! Having any rash that itches non stop will drive you crazy!
