Is clear skin more than skin-deep? In this episode, I explore the growing field of functional dermatology and how a holistic approach might change the way we treat acne — from the inside out.

We’ll break down:

- Why conventional acne treatments fall short

- The role of the skin barrier and microbiome

- How diet, hydration & lifestyle impact breakouts

- What to do if you have both acne and eczema

- What a truly holistic acne plan looks like

If you’re tired of short-term fixes and want a deeper understanding of skin health, this one’s for you.

🔍 Because lasting skin health means looking within.
