Board-certified OB/GYN Dr. Shieva Ghofrany is here to talk about all the ways hormones affect a woman’s appearance throughout her life, from acne and hair growth to dry skin and vulva changes. We discuss pregnancy-safe skincare and what cosmetic treatments are safe for pregnant women; why you may look different during different times in your cycle; how perimenopausal changes to your health and appearance can start in your 30s; and what happens to your skin, hair, and body as your hormonal balance shifts after your reproductive years. Plus, she shares the beauty and health products that have made a difference for her.
