In the press ✨

Not every bump is acne, especially in young children.

I was recently featured in Mom.com sharing my perspective on toddler acne, what can mimic it, and when it may be time to see a dermatologist.

True acne is actually uncommon in young children, which is why persistent breakouts can sometimes tell us there is more going on beneath the surface. I also shared a few of the conditions that can look like acne and why getting the right diagnosis matters before reaching for a treatment.

I am always grateful for opportunities like this to share evidence-based skin education and help parents feel a little more informed about what they are seeing on their child’s skin. 🤍

A little throwback that feels especially relevant this month! ✨

Last December, I had the opportunity to contribute my dermatology expertise to an Everyday Health article, “What Happens to Your Hands as You Age?” discussing why our hands can show signs of aging and the treatment options available.

Fast forward to today, and we’re putting the spotlight back on the hands with our hand filler special this month! 💉
🚨‼️ One more day to get the discount! Buy 1 Hand Filler, Get 1 Free - save $730 🚨‼️

If volume loss or more prominent veins and tendons are making your hands look older than you feel, filler can help restore a smoother, more youthful appearance.

It’s always fun when a past feature ties right into what we’re talking about in the clinic today. 🤍

Not all lasers are created equal. ✨

When it comes to skin rejuvenation, the HALO® TRIBRID™ Laser represents the next generation of laser technology.

By combining ablative and non-ablative wavelengths in a single treatment, HALO® TRIBRID™ targets years of sun damage while improving fine lines, wrinkles, texture, tone, enlarged pores, and acne scars, all with less downtime than traditional resurfacing lasers.

This isn't about changing how you look.

It's about revealing healthier, brighter, more youthful skin that still looks like you.

At Lycia Thornburg, M.D. Dermatology, we're proud to offer one of the most advanced laser platforms available because our patients deserve technology backed by science, safety, and results.

Ready to see what HALO® TRIBRID™ can do for your skin? Schedule a consultation today. ✨

Summer may be winding down, but sun damage doesn’t end with the season. ☀️

I previously joined KOTA Territory News to talk all about summer skin damage, including what to watch for, how to help prevent it, and why protecting your skin matters every single day.

The good news? A few simple habits can make a big difference in keeping your skin healthy now and for years to come.

✨ Wellness starts from within. ✨

Beautiful skin is about more than what you put on it. It is also about how you nourish your body.

That is why we are proud to offer Thorne® supplements, a science-driven brand I trust and discuss in my book when talking about the importance of choosing quality supplements.

Not all supplements are created equally. One of the reasons I choose Thorne is the level of testing and oversight behind the brand:

✔️ NSF Certified facility, with select products carrying NSF Certified for Sport® certification
✔️ Thorne products have been independently tested by ConsumerLab.com�
✔️ Every Thorne supplement undergoes four rounds of testing for quality, purity, and potency

Thorne formulations can support a wide range of wellness goals, including healthy skin, hair and nails, gut health, immune function, sleep, energy, and overall wellness.

Not sure which supplements are right for you? Our team can help guide you toward options based on your individual health goals, lifestyle, and skin concerns.
Because true skin health starts from the inside out. 🤍

🔬 Science Wednesday | National Hair Loss Awareness Month

Losing your hair isn't something you have to simply accept.

Hair loss affects both women and men and can happen for many different reasons including genetics, hormones, stress, nutritional deficiencies, autoimmune conditions, and more. The good news? Many types of hair loss can be slowed, treated, or even improved when addressed early.

At Lycia Thornburg, M.D. Dermatology, we believe successful treatment starts with an accurate diagnosis. From medical evaluations to advanced treatment options like Microneedling with PDGF and physician-recommended Thorne and Nutrafol® supplements (available in our clinic), we create personalized treatment plans based on your specific needs.

If you've noticed increased shedding, a widening part, thinning hair, or bald patches, don't wait. The sooner you seek e valuation, the more treatment options may be available.

📞 Call our office to schedule your consultation and take the first step toward healthier hair.

Subtle changes. Strategic placement. Beautiful balance. ✨

For this patient, we used the MD Codes™ injection approach to strategically restore support and enhance facial harmony while keeping her results natural.

Treatment included:�
✨ CK1 + CK4 — cheek support and contour�
✨ JW1 + JW2 — jawline definition and structure�
✨ Chin shadows — smoothing transitions around the chin for a more balanced profile

The goal isn’t to change the face. It’s to understand facial anatomy, identify where support has been lost, and treat intentionally.

Because great injectable results should have people noticing you, not your filler. 🤍
Individual results may vary.
