Welcome to our ongoing blog series, where we peel back the curtain and share the personal skincare routines of our dermatologists and plastic surgeons. Discover the insider tips and tricks they use to keep their skin healthy, radiant, and glowing. Follow along as we break down their morning and nightly routines, and don’t miss out on the special insider secret revealed in each post.
Plastic Surgeon Spotlight:
Dr. Marissa Baca a board-certified Plastic Surgeon at Straith Clinic, a Forefront Dermatology Practice, in Bingham Farms, Michigan. She has been with Straith Clinic for over 4 years with over 11 years of experience in the plastic surgery field and specializes in breast and body contouring.
Dr. Marissa Baca’s Daily Skincare Routine:
Morning Routine
First, I gently cleanse my face, removing impurities and prepping my skin for the day ahead. Next, I apply a few drops of SkinBetter Interfuse Lines, a hyaluronic acid serum to keep my skin plump and hydrated. Next, I apply SkinBetter Alto Advanced Vitamin C serum to combat oxidative stress caused by environmental toxins and pollutants. I follow that with SkinBetter Mystro Serum to even out pigmentation and texture. Lastly, I apply SkinBetter Trio Rebalancing Moisture Treatment. This leaves my skin soft, smooth, and ready for the day.
Nightly Routine
In the evenings I perform the same skincare routine, but I also add SkinBetter AlphaRet Overnight cream before my moisturizer to get all the amazing retinol benefits! It’s important to note though that I only add this product to my routine when I am not pregnant or breastfeeding.
Dr. Marissa Baca’s Insider Secret!
SPF, SPF, SPF!!! Every day, even when it is cloudy or in the winter. I recommend using at least mineral broad spectrum suncreen SPF 30. I like to use the SunBetter Tone Smart for a little tinted coverage with SPF 75, to replace foundation. Another tip; when you have a little extra product on your palms after applying it to your face, rub the extra on the back of your hands to get a little benefit there too.
