Episode 1: S1E1: Separating Marketing Hype from Science

Evidence Based Esthetics

Evidence Based Esthetics is where Science Meets Skincare! Master Esthetician Instructor Kristin Groop and Dr. Larry Groop use peer-reviewed research to investigate and discuss the latest trends, equipment, and products in medical esthetics. The Evidence Based Esthetician was developed to help sort out science fact from science fiction Kris and Larry interview leaders in the cosmetic dermatology field, perform live treatments with the latest products and equipment and try to keep the science fun and entertaining. Show segments include “Reality Check”, “Ultimate Esthetics Challenge”, “Esthetics Mythbusters”, and “You Blinded Me with Skin Science” among others. Both hosts irreverently poke fun at extravagant beauty claims as well as themselves. The Evidence Based Esthetician refuses directly sell, recommend, or otherwise, promote any product or service and the hosts make a point to inform the readers when they are giving their opinions rather than what the peer-reviewed research shows. Skincare professionals looking for a no nonsense approach to medical esthetic products, procedures and equipment will be sure to enjoy the light-hearted romp through the latest hot topics facing the beauty industry.
