Skin Resilience and The Skin Span Formula: Inside Out Beauty with Dr. Marianna Blyumin-Karasik
In this episode of Double Down with Dr. D. board certified integrative dermatologist Dr. Marianna Blyumin Karasik MD co founder of Precision Skin and Body Institute and creator of Stamina Cosmetics sits down with Dr. Paola D’Aleman to talk about what really keeps skin youthful, resilient and radiant over time.
Instead of chasing quick fixes, Dr. MBK explains the science of skin resilience and introduces her signature Skin Span 3×3 Formula, a simple but powerful approach that helps skin stay strong, healthy and luminous for longer.
She shares how internal and external stressors including hormones, sleep, UV exposure, diet, pollution and blue light quietly chip away at skin quality and how women can protect their skin across every decade, especially through perimenopause and menopause when elasticity, tone and repair can shift rapidly.
This conversation also explores evidence based approaches including peptides, growth factors, adaptogens, non hormonal skin supporting molecules and carefully considered use of topical estrogen alternatives to support skin resilience and longevity.
Whether someone is dealing with stress related breakouts, midlife hormonal skin changes or simply wants stronger long term skin health, this episode offers simple, science backed strategies to build resilient, glowing skin for life.
