Skincare Routines, Demystifying Botox, Is Sun Exposure Good? & Biohacking Sleep w/ Dr. Kay Durairaj

Considered one of the top plastic surgeons in the world, Dr. Kay Durairaj is equipped with some serious knowledge and expertise -- and not just when it comes to skin health and treatments. She is well-versed in (what is considered) alternative treatments, holistic health and biohacking. On this week's episode of The Red Light Report, Dr. Kay helps dispel the common misconceptions surrounding botox and neurotoxins and provides her personal skincare routine. We also trade notes on topics like sleep hygiene and circadian rhythm, intermittent fasting, mitochondrial health and more!

 

Dr. Kay Durairaj is an internationally renowned facial plastic surgeon and head & neck surgeon. Dr. Kay completed her surgical training at UCLA and is a member of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and American Board of Otolaryngology, Head, and Neck Surgery. She is Chairwoman of the Department of Ear, Nose, and Throat Surgery at Huntington Memorial Hospital, and she serves as an advisor to multiple aesthetic industry organizations.

 

Dr. Kay specializes in faces, including surgery for eyelids, rhinoplasty, facelift, and neck lift. Her expertise is in Botox and neurotoxins, facial injectables and fillers, and she was voted one of the top 100 injectors in the country by her peers. 

 

On top of all of that, Dr. Kay has her own line of physician-grade skin care products called KD Skincare; her own podcast, The Beauty Bytes, and her own aesthetic course called Modern Aesthetic Theory.

This was a fun conversation that covered a variety of health and wellness topics. I hope you enjoy learning from Dr. Kay as much as I did!
