Why do some people heal faster than others after aesthetic treatments? This week on Beauty & The Brain, Dr. Chris Croley and Jerry Drinkard, NP, discuss the many factors that can impact healing, including medications, supplements, retinols, smoking, nutrition, hormones, GLP-1s, sun exposure, and post-care compliance.

They also explain why two patients can have the same procedure but experience very different recovery timelines, and why being honest with your provider is key to safe treatment planning and better results.

This episode covers healing after treatments like PLEXR, CO2 laser, chemical peels, fillers, regenerative therapies, and more.
