• Dr. Rebecca Baxt was interviewed on the topic of “The 16 Best Body Lotions For Dry Skin, According To Dermatologists” (Today, September 15, 2022) Dr. Baxt offered the following advice on the types of body moisturizers available:
  • • Lotion. These are the lowest strength of moisturizers, and they’re typically a thin, easy to apply [solution] that comes in a pumper bottle,” Baxt said. But if those don’t work to hydrate your particular dry skin, you may need to progress to creams.
    • Creams. “These are thicker, and they have a higher oil to water ratio,” Baxt. Creams typically come in tubes or tubs. “They’re difficult to apply because they are thicker. However, they work better [than lotions],” she added. If those are still not adequate, ointments are the next step.
    • Ointments. The strongest moisturizers, according to Baxt. “These tend to be a Vaseline-type base, such as plain Vaseline, Aquaphor or Vaniply [Vanicream],” Baxt explained. Those are the thickest; they are a bit greasy, but if your skin is raw and cracked, they will be very soothing,” she said.
    • Alternative: Natural moisturizers. For people looking for an all-natural alternative, Baxt suggested coconut oil or other natural oils.- Read Full Article »
• Dr. Rebecca Baxt was interviewed by Everyday Health, “How to Tweak Your Skin-Care Routine for Fall, Depending on Your Skin Type,” September 2022. She discussed why and how to adjust your fall skincare regimen.
  “Since fall is a season of new beginnings, this may be a great time for a skin reset, says Dr. Baxt. “If you abused your skin this summer [in terms of sun exposure] or now have bad breakouts from constant sweat and sunscreen application, then peeling off that top layer of skin with a treatment like a chemical peel or laser resurfacing can help try to reverse the damage,” she says. “What’s more, this lack of humidity means that people who found they could skip moisturizer in the summer suddenly need to start using one now — or step up to a heavier one, says Rebecca Baxt, MD, a board-certified dermatologist in Paramus, New Jersey. That’s why for fall, the biggest adjustment will likely be to your moisturizing routine, no matter your skin type. Depending on if you’re oily, dry, or somewhere in between, you’ll be looking for a lotion (made with a large water content, making it a lightweight hydrator), cream (the next step), or an ointment (the strongest option).” – Read Full Article »
• Dr. Rebecca Baxt was interviewed by CNET on “How to Treat and Heal a Sunburn.”
  “Sunburns in light skin are red,” Baxt says. “Red shows inflammation, and your skin is recruiting cells to try to repair the damage.” Although it’s more “unusual” for a person with darker skin to get a sunburn, Baxt says, it happens; it just may be harder to see. If you have darker skin and other symptoms of sunburn like skin tenderness or peeling, you should use the same sunburn home remedies.Baxt says prevention is key when it comes to sunburn. “The way you prevent it is by using sunscreen appropriately and seeking shade, and wearing protective clothing,” Baxt says. “It’s all in the prevention. Once you get the burn it just has to heal.” – Read Full Article »
