In our 117th episode of Beyond the Bump, we chat with dermatology nurse Emily all about different pregnancy skin concerns:
- Is it common to get skin changes during pregnancy?
- Do pregnancy skin changes tend to be flare-ups of skin conditions that you’ve already suffered from in the past?
- Does it tend to be that if you suffered from a certain skin condition in one pregnancy, you’ll probably have the same skin condition in another pregnancy?
- Do most of these skin conditions resolve postpartum?
- Are melasma and hyperpigmentation the same thing? And how do you treat them?
- What changes should you make to our skin care regime if you’ve just found out you’re pregnant?
- What are the benefits of LED?
- Is there anything you can do to avoid skin issues during pregnancy?
- Is there a difference between eczema and dermatitis? And is it genetic?
- Are there any supplements for pregnancy hair loss/postpartum hair regrowth? Or is this something you just have to ride out?
- Stretch marks! For those who want to avoid or decrease them, are there any oils/treatments that work?
- And MUCH MORE!!!
We hope you absolutely LOVE this episode!
