The Science Behind Pregnancy-Safe Skincare with Dr. Kate Viola of Lady Polpo
Manage episode 431296854 series 3325753
In this episode of Skincare Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta welcomed Dr. Kate Viola, a board-certified dermatologist and founder of Lady Polpo, to discuss skincare during pregnancy and the development of Lady Polpo's pregnancy-safe products. Dr. Viola's journey to dermatology began in general surgery, but her passion for patient interaction led her to dermatology, where she focused on skin health and patient care.
The idea for Lady Polpo emerged during Dr. Viola's own pregnancy when she realized there was a lack of safe skincare options for pregnant women. This inspired her to create a brand prioritizing safety, efficacy, and simplicity. Pregnancy brings significant hormonal changes that can affect the skin, causing issues like increased oil production, melasma, and heightened sensitivity. Dr. Viola emphasized the need for skincare products that cater to these changes while ensuring safety for both mother and baby.
Creating pregnancy-safe skincare is challenging due to the lack of clear guidelines on "clean" or "natural" products. Dr. Viola collaborated with experts to develop a comprehensive list of safe ingredients, ensuring they do not penetrate beyond the epidermis. Dr. Viola also stressed the importance of ingredient transparency, noting that many products marketed as "natural" can still contain allergens. Lady Polpo's commitment to using only pregnancy-safe ingredients ensures consumers can trust their products.
