Skin Health, Not Skin Type: The Science behind Zonal Dysbiosis

Is skin type just a biological myth? Here’s a dermatologist’s take. Categorizing your face as oily/dry or combination is scientifically obsolete. At the Asian Skin Research Institute's Biodermatology Division, our quest has gone beyond skin types to the treatment of Zonal Dysbiosis. Join me, board-certified dermatologist, chief scientific officer and author of peer-reviewed papers on zonal dysbiosis in leading dermatology journals as she unveils her latest research. 

Here’s what we cover in this episode: 

• Your face as a topographic map and complex ecosystem with distinct zonal microclimates

• Our work at the institute fusing Eastern botanical adaptogens with modern peptides to target specific inflammatory pathways 

• The role of fermentation in the 500 Dalton rule: molecular size determines absorption
