But there are lots of misconceptions out there about treatments that are safe, and unsafe for SOC. This week on the podcast, I discuss skincare and procedures in SOC with my colleague, Dr. Tia Paul, who sheds her insight and expertise as a dermatologist well-versed in treating a diverse range of skin types!
