What if everything we’ve been taught about anti-aging skincare is focused on the wrong thing? What if the future isn’t about temporarily fixing what we see on the surface — but understanding how to help our skin function, repair, and regenerate differently as we age?
On today’s episode, we welcome Dr. Ivona Igerc, better known as Dr. Ivy, an internationally recognized aesthetic doctor and regenerative medicine expert with more than two decades of experience working at the intersection of science, skin health, and aesthetics. Her career has taken her across Europe and Asia, giving her a unique perspective on how beauty, aging, and skincare differ around the world. Today, she practices on Harley Street in London and is the Founder of Dr Ivy Skincare.
In this episode, Dr. Ivy shares what regenerative skincare actually means, what consumers should understand about exosomes and stem-cell science, and why she created a skincare line designed to bridge the gap between clinical treatments and daily at-home care. We also get into the Asian beauty movement, how approaches to aesthetics differ from East to West, LED and laser technology, collagen, biohacking beauty, and where the marketing around longevity and skincare may be getting ahead of the science. Plus, Dr. Ivy shares what she believes the next generation of regenerative medicine could mean for how we think about skin health and aging.
