Expert Profile:
Hello, everyone! My name is Dr. Susan Evans and I'm extremely excited about my new blog "Healthy Skin" for the WebMD community. You may have seen me before on WebMD because I've been one of the experts on the Skin and Beauty Community for the past several months.Well, let me tell you a little about my background… For the past 12 years, I have been the Chief of Dermatology for Skin Care Physicians of Beverly Hills. My practice focuses on addressing a wide range of skin issues including: acne treatment, pigment disorders, skin cancer, eczema, psoriasis, hair loss and non-surgical facial rejuvenation.
You may have recognized me on TV over the last several years. My husband (he's a plastic surgeon) and I were featured on the E! channel's Dr. 90210 series. I have also been featured as the skin expert on the Oprah Winfrey Show, the Dr Oz show, Today show, CNN, Access Hollywood and The Doctors. I am also one of Dr Oz's experts on his website. This summer I'm very excited about launching our premier Papaya Renewal Physician skin care line for HSN (Home Shopping Network).
I'm very passionate about our non-profit foundation, the Skin Deformities and Research Foundation. We reach out to victims of violence, burns, trauma and skin disorders. Our goal is to bring a smile back when society may have looked the other way.
I am also a mother of four wonderful children. With my office duties and responsibilities with my family, I maintain quite a busy schedule. But I absolutely love it! I feel that it is important to live life to its fullest and embrace each challenge head on.
At some point in their lives, just about everyone has had a concern about their skin. It may be an unexpected rash, blemish, discoloration, dryness or something more ominous such as a potential new skin cancer. So what's the first thing to do? Should I try to treat it myself? Hope that it will just go away? Use a home remedy?
My goal will be to help steer you in the right direction, as well as become the voice of reason for your skin care concerns. I will begin with the common skin problems and go deeper in to the more complex skin issues. I will do my best to include photos and video links to help illustrate our discussions.
On a lighter note, I know how important it is to look your best. On my blog, I will include the latest tips, towards looking younger and feeling better from the inside and out. As a wife, mother of four and practicing physician, I've have had the opportunity to work with an extensive variety of skin, family and health issues.
Additionally, as our environment changes and our protective ozone layer is diminishing, good skin health is more important than ever! Long gone are the days of baby oil, iodine and relying on good genetics alone for your skin. It can be quite easy to incorporate an effective daily skin regimen for yourself and family. Through this blog, I will strive to share cutting-edge dermatologic solutions.
Education is the key to making the right choices for your skin type. There is no reason that everyone's skin can't look its beautiful best. Looking and feeling healthy should not be under appreciated, I'm here to show you the way…
