Most of the dermatology prescriptions I write are expensive. It is just the way it is. I write a lot of ‘name brand’ products over ‘generic’ because I want what is BEST for my patients. I have used every cream personally that I have ever written and I will tell you it does matter to have the better ‘vehicle’. The vehicle is what makes it a cream, lotion, ointment, foam or spray and also gives some of the elegant feel, better smell, easier to apply and penetrate better for faster results. I disagree that it’s ‘ just the same’.. It’s like saying that walmart brand macaroni is the same as Velvetta Mac n cheese. Yes they are both macaroni but we all know which is better:) if your plan doesn’t cover name brand I will gladly substitute to make it affordable or be as generous as I can with my samples’ Doesn’t hurt to go for the ‘best’ first to see if covered!
HOW THE SUN SEES YOU
This video was made to show how our skin appears in ultraviolet lighting, much like the sun. Maybe it's time we used sunscreen more regularly?
