Each month we pose questions from the Sun Coast Community to our resident health and beauty expert, Dr. Mark Rosenberg.
In this November edition of 'Ask Me Anything', Dr. Rosenberg discusses why collagen smoothies are ineffective on their own…
Why the root cause of wrinkles and dry skin is found inside the gut…
And how to avoid red circles after applying dark spot creams.
Let’s dive in.
Question 1: “I’ve been drinking collagen smoothies for a month but seen no improvement. Do they even work?”
This question came from a patient called Jenny.
Collagen smoothies are one of the most aggressively marketed beauty products around.
And Jenny had high hopes.
But even after drinking collagen smoothies for weeks…
Jenny told me her skin looked just as wrinkled, saggy, and crepey as before.
She was clearly disappointed.
Nobody likes to waste money on expensive powders that fail to live up to the hype.
And I had to disappoint her even more when I explained why.
See, while it’s true that collagen is an essential protein for the structure of your skin cells… and when dosed correctly, collagen smoothies can be beneficial…
But there’s ANOTHER cause of sagging, wrinkly looking skin that has to be addressed first.
It’s a buildup of old, decaying skin cells known as “senescent cells”.
They’re cells that refuse to die and be recycled to make new ones.
Instead, they cling to your skin’s surface, like a plague of zombies…
Making your skin look lumpy, scaly, and wrinkled.
Well, “senescent cells” are something few dermatologists want to talk about…
As there’s nothing that chemical peels, microneedling, or even injections can do to get rid of them.
So the lab team and I developed a solution that can.
You can use this solution at home, it takes less than 30 seconds in your bathroom…
And it helps flush away the look of old, decaying cells so that younger, plumper cells can take their place.
You can find out how to do it in this video:

Question 2: “Will improving my gut health also improve my skin’s complexion?”
Your gut is home to trillions of microbes.
These microbes help you digest food, absorb nutrients, and produce vitamins.
When your gut is healthy, you can absorb all the nutrients your skin craves… such as vitamin A, vitamin C, and Omega-3 fatty acids.
But when your gut is unhealthy, the opposite happens.
Your gut can’t absorb nutrients properly…
And toxins can leak into your bloodstream…
Triggering inflammation, skin breakouts, and sagging.
The good news is there’s an easy fix…
Eat a nutritious diet that supports peak gut health.
This means eating foods rich in probiotics… like yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi…
Which help replenish the healthy bacteria in your gut
You should also eat more PREBIOTIC rich foods too… such as garlic, onion, leek, asparagus, banana, apple, and oats.
As prebiotics help feed and nourish your good bacteria and support a healthy gut.
But I know adding probiotic and prebiotic rich foods to your diet is easier said than done.
So the lab team and I developed a way for you to flood your gut (which I like to refer to as your “beauty biome”) with all the nutrients it needs for tight, smooth looking skin.

Question 3 - “I’ve been getting red patches and flaky skin after applying dark spot cream. Why is this happening?”
Many women get embarrassed by dark spots.
They can appear for a variety of reasons.
This includes sun exposure, hormones, or inflammation.
So dark spots are common, and nothing to feel embarrassed about.
But what can also cause embarrassment is when a dark spot cream causes red patches, skin irritation, and even flaking.
Why does this happen?
Because dark spot creams often contain harsh chemicals and bleaching agents.
These ingredients are added to strip away your skin barrier and smooth away the look of dark spots, like sanding away knots on a piece of wood.
But these harsh chemicals can also cause irritation and inflammation.
Now, I see a lot of women in my clinic who get red patches and skin irritation from dark spot creams…
And who get even MORE frustrated when the dark spots keep coming back.
So the lab team and I developed a new solution to dark spots.
It works 20X better than any other dark spot cream… actively prevents dark spots coming back… and it provides visible results in as little as 15 days.
