Straight Talk about Cosmetic Surgery with Dr. Arthur Perry

Skin Lightening Toxicity. WOR show 4/5/25

Arthur W Perry MD Season 20 Episode 12

Skin lightening is popular not only to lighten skin, but to even out skin tone.  There are many ingredients that are effective lighteners.  But beware because many products contain Mercury, which is a kidney killer and has no business being in skincare products.  On this show, we discuss safe skin lighteners, from Vitamin C to prescription hydroquinone.  We also discuss red light therapy to rejuvate the skin, which I do not consider to be effective.  And finally, we talk about how wrinkle filler rejuvenates the mouth area but facelifts are necessary to improve jowls and hanging neck skin.
