Past the Pimple: Picking Apart the Systemic Drivers of Acne Vulgaris
Dr. James Del Rosso
Pimple popper: thanks to Jerry Seinfeld we wear this scarlet letter that in that fateful episode was meant to underplay our position in the house of medicine (and even society?). We all know that the 3000+ diseases of the hair, skin, and nails and mastery over the largest and most multi-faceted organ of the human body makes us the GOAT, so let’s not allow this comical stain to downplay the incredible pathophysiological complexity of the most common inflammatory skin disease. Like so many of its inflammatory family members, Acne Vulgaris is not simply about the skin. Join JDD podcast host Dr. Adam Friedman and legendary, two time AARS President Dr. Jim Del Rosso as they systematically discuss Acne as a systemic disease. Pop in to learn about the evolving Acne landscape and listen to these two go down practical paths pertaining to practice and the pursuit of new research areas. The stress induced from missing this podcast will no doubt cause a picking disorder so do yourself a favor and download!
