Ranking Skin Treatments and Trends From 1-10 With Aesthetician Sarah Landmesser
The Doctor Youn ShowShow Notes
In this episode, Dr. Anthony Youn brings his go-to medical esthetician, Sarah Landmesser, into the studio for a fun (and surprisingly honest) game: rating today’s most talked-about skincare treatments and trends on a scale of 1–10.
They go rapid-fire through everything from red light masks, dry brushing, and “lunchtime” peels to the heavy-hitters like moderate-depth chemical peels, in-office microneedling, RF microneedling (Morpheus8), fillers, Sculptra, and Botox. They also call out a few viral fads—like beef tallow creams, microcurrent devices, detox foot pads, and CoolSculpting—sharing what’s worth your money, what’s overhyped, and what can actually backfire.
If you’ve ever wondered “Should I try this?” or “Is this legit or just TikTok hype?”—this episode will help you sort the skincare noise from the treatments that truly deliver.
