What’s up with all these trad health influencers using chicken lamps for red light? Do LED masks actually do anything? Are sunscreen truthers exposing a hidden danger, or just fear-mongering their way to premature wrinkles?

To separate science from skincare delusion, we chat with Carter Gottlieb, MD/PhD candidate, content creator, and founder of EVIBA Skincare, to break down red light therapy myths, sunscreen misinformation, and the unpleasant realities behind one of your biggest beauty tech impulse purchases.

161. Salmon Sperm Facials with Sofie Pavitt

We chop it up with renowned esthetician Sofie Pavitt, founder of Sofie Pavitt Face and owner of Sofie Pavitt Skincare Studio in Chinatown, to talk salmon sperm facials, microneedling, and PRP (platelet-rich plasma) treatments. Sofie breaks down the science behind salmon DNA for skin rejuvenation, its role in microneedling, and how FDA restrictions shape treatments in the U.S. compared to South Korea’s cutting-edge beauty scene.

Elsewhere in the episode, we unpack podcast criticism, New York Magazine’s take on adult allowances, the politics of men and backpacks, unwanted bar encounters, the lost art of flossing, silent sauna competitions, and the ultimate flex—disappearing from IG and re-emerging with a baby. All that, and much, much more.
