They have enjoyed their time off, but the lack of excitement is starting to chafe: a professional killer can only take so many watercolor classes and yoga sessions without itching to strangle someone...literally.

Why is there still a stigma around Botox and other simple cosmetic procedures? And what role does skin health play in healthy aging?These are topics I discuss on this episode with Atlanta dermatologist Dr. Mary Alice Mina. You know, it's funny. We don't think anything about working out and looking better… but we raise a skeptical glance at the possibility of Botox, fillers, or peels. What's the difference between them and, say, dying your hair?I find Botox to be an entry topic for the more relevant subject of skin health, cancer screenings, and the like. I'd been hoping to have a dermatologist on the show for a while. I know you'll enjoy this conversation.

ABC News White House Correspondent MaryAlice Parks tells us President Trump touted a return to the American "golden age" while promoting his America-first agenda to the World Economic Forum on Wednesday.

Many of us unknowingly harm our skin with habits we think are helpful. Over-exfoliating, using the wrong products, or skipping sunscreen altogether can damage your skin barrier, leading to dryness, sensitivity, and even premature aging. If your skincare routine feels overwhelming—or worse, ineffective—it might be time to simplify and get back to the basics.In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, I sat down with Dr. Mary Alice, a dermatologist with nearly two decades of experience, to dive into how to avoid these common mistakes. We talked about the power of skin minimalism, why your skin barrier is your first line of defense, and how understanding your skin's unique needs can help you achieve real, long-lasting results.We also shared practical advice on building a streamlined routine that works and why less is often more when it comes to skincare. If you're tired of wasting time and money on products that don't deliver, this episode is for you.Dr. Mary Alice Mina is a procedural dermatologist specializing in skin health and longevity. Over the past two decades, she has helped countless patients transform their skin by focusing on evidence-based treatments and personalized care.
