Irina Turchin, MD, FRCPC, DABD / Hélène Veillette, MD, FRCPC - On the Case: Practical Insights to Individualize Biologic Treatment in Moderate-to-Severe Hidradenitis Suppurativa

What comes first: the obesity or the skin inflammation?  We've got just the expert to help us find out. This week, we're joined by Dr. Ganary Dabiri as she walks us through the relationship of obesity and the skin. Listen in as she discusses skin diseases, how to use "people first" language, and the clinical possibilities of GLP-1 medications. Each Thursday, join Dr. Raja and Dr. Hadar, board-certified dermatologists, as they share the latest evidence-based research in integrative dermatology. For access to CE/CME courses, become a member at LearnSkin.com. Dr. Ganary Dabiri is double board-certified in Dermatology and in Obesity Medicine. She earned her graduate and medical degree from Albany Medical College. She completed her Dermatology Residency at Roger Williams Medical Center. In 2024 she completed her requirements and obtained board certification in Obesity Medicine. Dr. Dabiri is an adjunct assistant professor at Albany Medical College. She works in private practice in Milford, Massachusetts. In 2024, Dr. Dabiri started the first Skin Inflammation and Obesity Medicine Specialty Clinic in Massachusetts. This comprehensive clinic focuses on and treats patients not only for their chronic inflammatory dermatologic condition such as Psoriasis, Hidradenitis Suppurativa, PCOS, and Atopic Dermatitis but treats their concurrent obesity. Since the inception of this clinic, she has helped numerous patients achieve clearer skin, improve their joint health, but equally if not more importantly - improve their overall health.

Summary: In this episode of the Future of Dermatology podcast, host Dr. Faranak Kamangar sits down with Dr. Haley Naik, board-certified dermatologist, professor at UCSF, and Stanford and Harvard-trained expert, for a timely and eye-opening conversation on two major fronts: the rapidly evolving treatment landscape for Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) and the critical California state legislation that could reshape how dermatologists practice and how patients access care. Dr. Naik opens with exciting updates in the HS space, including the three currently FDA-approved therapies and two promising agents anticipated to cross the finish line by 2027. She also shares a major advocacy win: HS has been designated a highlighted research topic by the NIH across three institutes, opening a one-year funding window starting April 7, 2026 that researchers should act on now. The conversation then dives deep into the broken prior authorization system, with striking data points: 25% of dermatology visits require prior auth, 75% of denial letters have no listed decision maker, and the average dermatology practice spends $40,000 per year staffing for prior authorizations. Against this backdrop, Dr. Naik breaks down three California bills - two to support and one to oppose - that directly affect how dermatologists can care for their patients. Whether you're a dermatologist, researcher, or patient advocate, this episode is packed with actionable information, from NIH grant deadlines to how to contact your state representative before late June voting deadlines.

It probably doesn't surprise you that HS (hidradenitis suppurativa) is much more than just a skin condition. There is an increasing body of research showing how HS is linked to immune dysfunction, gut health, liver problems, hormone imbalances, and so much more that often goes overlooked in conventional medical care.In this episode, I'm diving into the links between Hidradenitis suppurativa and autoimmune disease, liver health, thyroid dysfunction, and gut health, so you can spot red flags and get help sooner!⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references

What is Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS), and how is it treated? In this episode of the Science of Skin podcast, dermatologist Dr. Ted Lain is joined by HS specialist Dr. Steve Daveluy to break down everything you need to know about this chronic inflammatory skin disease — from early diagnosis to cutting-edge treatments. In this episode, we cover: What is Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) and who does it affect? Why pain is the #1 reason HS patients seek medical care How shame and stigma impact HS patients — and why HS is never the patient's fault Early HS treatment options: antimicrobial washes, topical antibiotics, and more The role of biologics in managing moderate-to-severe HS Emerging HS treatments: JAK inhibitors, nanobodies, and drugs in the pipeline Understanding HS pathogenesis and the immune pathways involved Why a multifactorial, personalized treatment approach is essential for HS management Whether you're a dermatologist, healthcare provider, or someone personally affected by Hidradenitis Suppurativa, this episode offers expert insight into the latest research, treatment strategies, and the future of HS care.

Dr. Jeanine Cook-Garard learns about Hidradenitis Suppurativa, or HS, which is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition that may affect an estimated one in 100 people. It's believed to be caused by an overactive immune system, which can lead to painful bumps, abscesses, and scarring in areas where skin rubs together such as the underarms, thighs, and groins.  She speaks with Dr. Lana Schmidt, a board-certified dermatologist, who will talk about how to recognize HS symptoms, explore the role of the immune system, and discuss a treatment option that is available, and Frank Grimsley, a patient living with HS, who will share his personal experience from the emotional challenges to the importance of finding a dermatologist and the right treatment.

In this episode of Major Pain, we continue our talks with people dealing with hidradenitis suppurativa. Today we talk to Angel, a mother of five who has had multiple health challenges. A self described “homestead mom”, Angel loves to grow vegetables in the garden and make her own food like butter whenever she is able. She stays busy homeschooling her autistic son while raising her other four children, including a fifteen month old. She hopes someday to get a small acreage and have a few animals and live the country life. At thirty years old, she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and had to have multiple surgeries to drain and remove the liquid filled tumor, and eventually her entire thyroid. After the surgeries and radiation treatment, she still struggles with getting the right supplements to replace her thyroid hormones, properly absorb nutrition and avoiding fluctuations in weight. After the birth of her son, the skin symptoms that had been an undiagnosed since she was a teenager became much worse.  She had struggled with doctors telling her that she had contact rashes or allergies to certain fabrics or personal care products like deodorant.  Finally, at thirty three years old she got the diagnosis of hidradenitis suppurativa.  While finally being diagnosed was a relief, it was also the beginning of a long road looking for treatments.  She tried Humera but experienced minimal relief with a lot of side effects.  Cosentyx had worked fairly well for her until she became pregnant with her youngest child.  Now she is attempting to get back on a new medication but has struggled with insurance for approval for a year. On this podcast episode she talks us through her journey so far, and discusses her public advocacy as @hsqueen96.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:   Michelle: Hi Dr. Cabral, I started the para Support protocol this morning. I had 16 ounces of warm, lemon & hydrogen water upon waking and a half hour later took 2 of the Proteolytic enzymes on an empty stomach and about a half hour later I drank a cup of coffee with a teaspoon on ghee (my regular routine water first and coffee 20 min later). Shortly, there after I got extremely nauseous over the next several hours. I'm in overall good health and have taken many supple     Adam: Hey Dr. Cabral, I am 15 years old and weigh 160 pounds. I am 5ft 10 and a half and I have been working out for 3 years and have always tried to have a healthy lifestyle.

Want to learn the difference between dieting for HS and nutrition? We've got TWO experts. This week, we're joined by Cristina Curp and Jillian Ondreyka as they walk us through how nutrition can impact a patient's hidradenitis supurativa. Listen is as they discuss the relationship with food, food sensitivity testing, and how nutrition is more about adding good food in than taking bad food out. Each Thursday, join Dr. Raja and Dr. Hadar, board-certified dermatologists, as they share the latest evidence-based research in integrative dermatology. For access to CE/CME courses, become a member at LearnSkin.com.   Cristina Curp was diagnosed with HS at 13 years old, like many she spent most of her life hiding the disease. A decade ago, that changed, as she began to share her journey with nutrition to better manage her inflammatory symptoms, she also became vocal about living with Hidradenitis Suppurativa. The journey led to a successful food blog, 2 best selling cookbooks, and a decade of helping others with HS through food. Most recently, she joined the team at HS Connect as COO, and is thrilled to take her advocacy work to the next level.   Jillian Ondreyka is a Dietitian with over 10 years of experience partnering with clients to achieve their nutrition goals. As a person with Hidradenitis Suppurativa, she became interested in how food can help calm inflammation in the body to encourage healing. She graduated from the University of Michigan with a Master of Public Health and Eastern Michigan University with a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics. She earned the Integrative and Functional Nutrition Certified Practitioner (IFNCP) credential and is a Certified LEAP Therapist (CLT). LEAP stands for Lifestyle Eating and Performance and is a patient-specific oligoantigenic diet based on the Leukocyte Activation Assay-Mediator Release Test (LAA-MRT®). Jillian began participating in dermatology research evaluating the effectiveness of the LEAP program in improving outcomes in HS in 2022. In 2025, she became a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES).

Parish Armstead was only 7 years old when the first signs of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) appeared. This is a painful inflammatory skin condition that causes boil-like abscesses and scarring, which can occur anywhere that hair follicles grow. These abscesses are known to reform in the same spot even when surgically removed, or connect with each other through tunnels under the skin called tracts. This disease runs in Parish's family, and growing up it was normal to use hot soaks to treat breakouts. His first surgery was at 11, and he would continue to get surgeries throughout the years as his HS developed. It wasn't until he turned 18 that a doctor recommended a CAT scan, which discovered a system of tracts under his skin, leading to his diagnosis with hidradenitis suppurativa. In this episode of the Major Pain podcast, Parish tells us what it is like to live with HS. This disease does not only affect the skin—it causes systemic fatigue, necessitates a regimented diet and exercise, and also carries a heavy mental health toll. Parish's journey has been one of acceptance. At first he rebelled against this disease, not wanting to make the necessary lifestyle changes or even be seen in public— how he has embraced this lifelong challenge, allowing him to discover a deeper sense of self. This upward trajectory began with HS Connect, an advocacy group that Parish is now an active member of. Finally finding community around HS showed him the importance of being visible and speaking up about his journey. He now co-hosts the HS Brotherhood Podcast with Joey Torre (two-time guest of Major Pain) and curates an advocacy platform as HSOpenWounds.

Living with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) can mean navigating a long and often complicated treatment journey, but finding the right care and support can make all the difference. What happens when your regimen stops working or new symptoms appear? We spoke with Christopher Sayed, MD, professor of dermatology at the UNC Department of Dermatology, to discuss when it’s time to talk to your doctor about escalating treatment, why switching therapies or care teams isn’t a setback, and how HS support groups can provide vital expertise and advocacy. We also hear from Katie, a patient advocate with Hope for HS, who shares her story of diagnosis, experiences with flare-ups and stigma, and how she ultimately found the right care.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Recurring painful bumps in your underarms, groin, or under the breasts may seem like acne – but they could be hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), a chronic, often misunderstood skin condition. HS affects up to four percent of people in the U.S., yet it’s frequently misdiagnosed or dismissed. What can those impacted do to heal and prevent these bumps? What are the misconceptions about HS? And how can patients advocate for themselves? We spoke with Vivian Shi, MD, a board-certified dermatologist, about the early warning signs of HS, treatment options ranging from topical therapies to biologics and surgery, and debunked myths linking HS to poor hygiene. We also hear from Ebone Colbert, who shares her 15-year journey with HS, from symptoms to diagnosis, and why support and the right care team matter.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is, by all accounts, a painful disease.An estimated 3 million Americans live with HS, which is most commonly identified by flare ups as well as painful and unflattering lumps under the skin.Over the past few years, drugmakers have launched campaigns and marketing efforts to bring greater attention and understanding to the disease.Recently, Incyte launched HS Truths – an educational campaign to shine a spotlight on the physical symptoms of the disease as well as the associated mental health challenges.Patient-led, HS Truths provides insights into how frustrating it can be to live with the disease before receiving a proper medical diagnosis – which occurs after an average of seven to 10 years.This week, Managing Editor Jack O'Brien is joined by Stephenie Atkins, senior director, brand lead product strategy and marketing at Incyte, to discuss HS Truths and how it serves to elevate the profile of HS as a disease state.And for our Trends segment, we're talking about all things related to the continued splintering of vaccine policy uniformity in America under Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s leadership at HHS.Music: “Deep Reflection” by DP and Triple Scoop Music. Step into the future of health media at the MM+M Media Summit on October 30th, 2025 live in NYC!

Calling all Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) warriors – if you've wondered whether diet changes could help. The short answer? It might. While diet alone won't be a cure-all, many people have seen fewer flares and less pain by making specific changes.In this episode, I'm breaking down what we do know about the Hidradenitis Suppurativa diet connection, what's still unclear, and how you can start experimenting with a diet for HS without getting overwhelmed.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Master + optimize your liver detox

In this premiere episode of Tea with Dr D, Dr James Q Del Rosso welcomes Dr Lauren Lam, a Canadian dermatologist with special interest and strong experience in managing patients affected by hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). They engage in a thoughtful and comprehensive conversation about diagnosing and treating this common yet often elusive skin condition—especially in its early stages—which has been notoriously difficult to treat. Their discussion integrates both medical and surgical approaches to optimize outcomes. Dr Lam shares how she built an efficient, trust-centered model of care at her Calgary clinic, from using intake tools and patient education videos to identifying comorbidities and staging severity. She walks through her approach to treatment selection—focusing on what brings the most value in that moment—and discusses when and how she incorporates patient education, intralesional corticosteroids, biologic therapy, deroofing, laser hair removal, and other approaches into her care strategy. Whether you see HS regularly or only occasionally, this conversation offers practical strategies, clinical nuances, and a fresh perspective on improving care for this complex condition.

Despite the substantial impact hidradenitis suppurativa can have on patients, many don't have a diagnosis or seek treatment. With better understanding of the disease and new and emerging treatment options, now is a great time to focus on identifying the disease and providing care, says Wendy Cantrell, DNP, CRNP. Also in this episode, Jenny Murase, MD, FAAD offers tips for getting to the root of itch, and Joe Gorelick, MSN, FNP-C addresses rosacea awareness.Like what you're hearing?

This case study outlines a self-guided protocol that led to the remission of Hidradenitis Suppurativa and broader signs of systemic inflammation. Through mast cell stabilization using a rhythm of H1 and H2 antihistamines, mitochondrial support via low-dose methylene blue, and targeted electrolyte and lifestyle adjustments, the author experienced rapid reductions in swelling, improved energy, skin repair, and full tolerance of previously triggering foods. With no major weight loss or increased physical activity, the transformation highlights how inflammation—not fat alone—may be responsible for water retention, tissue dysfunction, and chronic illness. This protocol offers a systems-based model for addressing inflammatory disease through layered, holistic intervention.

Summary In this episode of the Future of Dermatology Podcast, we hear from Dr. Maria Aleshin who spoke at the Annual SF Derm Society's 2024 Meeting. She presents on Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) and various non-biologic treatment strategies. Dr. Aleshin covers practical approaches to managing HS flare-ups, long-term management considerations, and the role of antibiotics in treatment. She emphasizes the importance of personalized care and the need for a multifaceted approach to effectively address this challenging skin condition.   Takeaways The pathogenesis of HS is multifactorial, requiring a comprehensive treatment approach. Treatment stacking often involves combining medical, procedural, and lifestyle interventions. Topical therapies like chlorhexidine and benzoyl peroxide are commonly recommended, but alternatives exist. Systemic antibiotics are frequently used for managing HS flares. Hormonal therapies, including oral contraceptives and spironolactone, can be effective for female patients with HS. Metformin may be beneficial for patients with metabolic dysfunction associated with HS. Isotretinoin is not a first-line treatment for HS due to mixed results. Botulinum toxin can help reduce sweating and inflammation in HS patients. Combination antibiotic therapy, particularly clindamycin and rifampin, shows high efficacy but has relapse risks. Urtipenem is a powerful antibiotic reserved for severe HS cases as a bridge to surgery or biologics.

Summary In this episode of the Future of Dermatology podcast, we hear from Dr. Leandra A. Barnes, who, during the SF Derm Society 2024 Annual Meeting, presented on the challenges and strategies in managing Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS), a chronic inflammatory skin condition. She explores the barriers to care, the importance of optimizing clinic visits, building trust with patients, and effective treatment approaches. Dr. Barnes emphasizes the need for early intervention, patient empowerment, and the role of follow-up care in improving patient outcomes.   Takeaways HS is a painful and disfiguring chronic inflammatory disease. There is a significant diagnostic delay of 7 to 10 years for HS. Barriers to care include cost, stigma, and lack of knowledge. Provider attitudes and health system characteristics impact patient care. Empathy and clear communication are crucial in patient visits. Preparation before patient visits can optimize care delivery. Early intervention is key to managing HS effectively. Patients prioritize treatment and flare management during visits. Support groups can empower patients between visits. Follow-up care is essential to prevent emergency room visits.   Chapters 00:00 - Introduction to the Future of Dermatology Podcast 01:35 - Understanding Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) 05:02 - Optimizing the HS Clinic Visit 07:03 - Building Trust and Communication in Patient Visits 08:01 - Treatment Approaches for HS 10:52 - Follow-Up and Patient Empowerment

In this episode of Derms and Conditions, host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, welcomes Michael Payette, MD, a dermatologist in private practice at Central Connecticut Dermatology, to discuss practical approaches to managing hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Dr Payette shares his experience establishing a dedicated HS clinic and provides insights into addressing diagnostic delays, patient education, and emerging treatments. They begin by discussing the importance of outreach and education to raise awareness of HS among non-dermatology health care providers, such as OB-GYNs and urgent care practitioners, highlighting how early referral and intervention can prevent long-term complications such as scarring and sinus tract formation. They then explore the role of GLP-1 therapies and biologics in HS treatment. Dr Payette shares his multimodal approach, explaining how GLP-1s address an underlying cause of inflammation while biologics target active inflammation. He outlines practical tips for managing insurance approvals and counseling patients on the benefits and potential side effects of these therapies. The episode also covers strategies for discussing lifestyle changes, such as weight loss and smoking cessation, while being sensitive to patient challenges. Dr Payette notes that combining weight reduction with biologics can often yield good outcomes, helping patients achieve better disease control and remission. Tune in to the full episode to learn how a systematic, patient-centered approach to HS management can improve outcomes for this challenging condition.

Therapeutic advancements make it possible for more people to get control of HS, but significant challenges to diagnosis and long-term management remain. Alexa Hetzel, MS, PA-C provides an overview of medical and procedural treatment options and emphasizes the importance of spending time with patients and letting them know you are their ally in care. Plus, April Armstrong, MD, MPH gives an update on OX inhibitors, and Sandri Johnson, MSN, FNP-BC addresses approaches to vitiligo treatment.Like what you're hearing?

Finding a hidradenitis suppurativa treatment that works can be frustrating and difficult, especially with certain symptoms like intense pain.Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) pain can severely impact your day to day quality of life — I speak from experience here!When I first discovered a swollen, painful lump in my armpit, I panicked, and immediately worried about getting checked for breast cancer. Fortunately, the lump wasn't cancer – it was hidradenitis suppurativa.For me, laser hair removal was the key to stopping hidradenitis suppurativa symptoms in their tracks, but that's not the case for everyone. Plus, laser hair removal isn't always a permanent solution.Because I personally know how awful this skin condition can be, I want to share more on what causes hidradenitis suppurativa pain, how the immune system and inflammation play a role here, as well as sharing some hidradenitis suppurative home remedies and other conventional treatment options.Dr. Steven Daveluy is back to share more on HS!
