  • Optimized Photoprotection in 2025: Combining Protection & Correction for Photodamage
    May 22 2025
    In this episode of Derms and Conditions, Dr James Q. Del Rosso welcomes esteemed dermatologist Dr Henry Lim from Michigan. Together, they explore the evolving science behind photoprotection, the importance of advances in sunscreen formulations and ingredients, and the clinical relevance of sunscreen formulations that both protect against and repair photodamage. Dr Lim provides an update on comprehensive photoprotection that includes ultraviolet radiation coverage, recognizes the growing role of visible light protection, and incorporates ingredients with antioxidant activity. He also explains where mineral sunscreens can be particularly helpful in clinical practice. A major part of the discussion highlights the progression of science supporting DNA repair through the use of liposomes containing photolyases. These enzymes have been shown to repair cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers—mutagenic DNA lesions induced by UVA and UVB exposure. Incorporating photolyases into sunscreen formulations has been associated with reduced actinic keratosis formation and enhanced skin protection. Dr Del Rosso shares his insights on ISDIN's Eryfotona Actinica and Eryfotona Ageless, two mineral sunscreens that include photolyase-containing liposomes, also known as DNA Repairsomes®, to enhance natural DNA repair processes. Each product contains additional active ingredients offering distinct benefits for specific patient needs. Dr Del Rosso and Dr Lim discuss how these formulations fit into both preventive and reparative strategies, particularly for patients with a history of actinic damage or elevated risk for nonmelanoma skin cancers. The conversation then covers the value of broad-spectrum protection, lightweight formulations, and patient education to encourage consistent use. Dr Lim offers practical pearls on counseling patients, improving sunscreen adherence, and integrating these strategies into everyday dermatologic care. They also touch on the importance of photoprotection in skin of color, emphasizing the need for inclusive clinical research and personalized recommendations. Dr Lim reinforces the importance of year-round sun protection, even for individuals who perceive themselves to be at lower risk. The episode wraps up with forward-looking insights into the future of photoprotection, including emerging technologies and formulation innovations that may reshape dermatologic sun care. From thoughtful commentary to evidence-based guidance, tune in for the latest in photoprotection—just in time for summer.

  • Another Cup of Tea with Dr D! Part 2: Closing the Loop on Managing HS
    May 15 2025
    In Part Two of the Tea with Dr. D premiere, James Q. Del Rosso, DO, returns with Lauren Lam, MD, a Canadian dermatologist with a keen interest and extensive experience in managing hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). After covering overall considerations and the medical side of HS management in Part One, they shift gears to focus on important physical approaches, including one of the most effective—and often underutilized—surgical interventions: deroofing. Dr Lam emphasizes the importance of both medical and surgical interventions in order to provide comprehensive management of this multifaceted disease state. She shares her step-by-step approach for identifying which lesions are best suited for deroofing, breaking down key considerations like Hurley staging, scarring assessment, and palpation for sinus tracts. From assessing lesions that have resisted biologic therapy to recognizing when a seemingly mild case may actually benefit from surgical intervention, she explains how deroofing fits seamlessly into a well-rounded HS treatment plan, often working in tandem with biologic agents to address stubborn or recurrent lesions without disrupting systemic control. The conversation then turns to technique. Dr Lam outlines her preferred tools, all which are easily accessible in dermatology practices, and explains how she navigates physically challenging areas like the axilla and groin. The pair emphasize the importance of patient education; Dr Del Rosso raises questions about preventing complications such as biofilm formation and hypergranulation, while Dr Lam addresses these issues and shares her strategies for effective wound management. Together, they reflect on how deroofing can markedly improve comfort and quality of life for HS patients, particularly those who have struggled with focal areas of chronic drainage and recurrent abscesses despite optimized medical therapy. Dr Lam’s enthusiasm for the procedure is readily apparent and contagious, and her practical advice makes the incorporation of deroofing into the management plan feel readily achievable, even for dermatology clinicians who are new to surgical HS management.

  • Tea with Dr D: Solving The Puzzle of Hidradenitis Suppurativa: Pulling All the Pieces Together for Each Patient
    May 6 2025
    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.
