Episode description
Trying to define “clean” for your patients? We’ve been trying too. Luckily, this week we’re joined by Dr. Lindy Fox as she helps us define what “clean” really means for ingredients. Listen in as she helps us rethink how skin care should feel, look at ingredient labels, and how to achieve clean beauty. 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.

Hadar Lev-Tov
MD MAS
Dr. Hadar Lev-Tov is a board-certified dermatologist with extensive research experience. Throughout his training and in daily practice, he has always believed that the key to achieving health for his patients is grounded in his ability to truly connect to their experiences and perceptions of health and well-being. Maimonides, one of the greatest philosophers of all time realized that human knowledge, often represented as "science," is limited. As a physician, he feels he would be a fool to believe all is known. Maimonides said, "The physician should not treat the disease but the patient who is suffering from it." LearnSkin is his journey to a better understanding of his patients.
