Hair maxxing (evidence-based) ✨

The products and treatments I’d prioritise for healthier, fuller hair. Not everyone needs all of them, but these have the best evidence when they’re used for the right reason.

🧬 Peptide scalp serum → Healthier scalp
💪 Protein treatment → Repair damage
🩸 Iron + zinc → Correct deficiencies
💉 PRP injections → Stimulate growth
🧪 Bond treatment → Rebuild broken bonds
💛 Repair hair oil → Reduce breakage
🫧 Minoxidil → Regrow hair

Healthy hair starts at the scalp. Healthy lengths are about preventing breakage. They’re two different jobs. 🤍

Expensive s**t that’s actually worth it ✨

If body hyperpigmentation is your biggest concern, these are the treatments I’d actually spend money on.

💥 Laser hair removal → Fewer ingrowns
🧪 Body chemical peel → Faster cell turnover
🎯 Multi-active pigment serum → Target multiple pathways
⚡ Pico laser → Stubborn pigmentation
🌙 Prescription retinoid → Fade + prevent marks

You don’t need all of them. But if I was spending my own money, this is where I’d spend it. 🤍

AD | I quit my job as a hospital doctor to become a full-time docfluencer... and somehow that’s brought me to Stockholm for a wellness retreat with .uki 🕊✨ One of the biggest lessons since leaving medicine? Looking after yourself shouldn’t be the last thing on your to-do list. I’ve loved learning more about the new Dove Body + Mind range, from the skincare-inspired formulas to why body care deserves just as much attention as face care. 💙🫧 Safe to say... this definitely beats a night shift. 🤍 Docfluencer WellnessJourney Stockholm 🫧✨

Cheap s**t that will make your feet prettier 🦶✨

These are the products I’d actually repurchase. They work, they’re affordable, and you don’t need a luxury price tag.

🦶 Heel balm → Baby-soft heels
💧 10% urea cream → Dissolves rough skin
🌙 Body retinol → Smoother skin
🩹 Healing ointment → Locks in moisture
🧀 Ditch the cheese grater → Too much skin trauma
🪨 Pumice stone → Gentler exfoliation
☀️ SPF 50 → Prevents pigmentation

Pretty feet aren’t expensive. They’re just looked after. 🤍

Pigmentation Maxxing (evidence-based) 🧡

These are the products and habits I’d prioritise for fading hyperpigmentation. No miracle cures. Just treatments backed by good evidence.

🧪 Multi-active pigment serum → Multiple pigment pathways
🌙 High-strength retinal → Increase cell turnover
⚡ Pico laser → Resistant pigmentation
☀️ UV detection stickers → Smarter SPF reapplication
🧢 Wide-brimmed hats → Physical UV protection
🕶️ UV400 sunglasses → Protect periocular skin
🌿 10% azelaic acid → Reduce excess pigment

Pigmentation is a UV-driven condition. The best brightening routine in the world won’t outperform consistent sun protection. 🤎

🪒 Single blade razor → Fewer ingrowns
🧴 AHA body treatment → Gentle exfoliation
🌙 Body retinol → Texture + tone
🫧 Antibacterial body wash → Acne control
