Medspa Terminology 101 - Part 2 - Skin Care and Procedures

In Part 2 of our conversation about medspa terminology, Dr. Kate Dee and Dr. Desiree Otto discuss various common terms related to skincare and aesthetic treatments. They cover topics such as dermal fillers, including the difference between Botox and filler, common filler complications like duck lips and pillow face, the use of hyaluronic acid in fillers, and the role of growth factors and exosomes in skincare. They also explain the difference between retinol and tretinoin, discuss the terms comedogenic and non-comedogenic, and clarify the meanings of FDA approved and FDA cleared.
