One of my go to recommendations for patients recovering from skin cancer surgery is @sunrisestrips. They’re a UPF 50 fabric strip that’s water resistant, sweat resistant, and stays on all day, perfect for shielding new scars or fresh tattoos from the sun while they heal. #sunprotection #skin #skincancer #postsurgicalscars #scars #dermatology #skincaretips

Think twice before you rub your eyes again... 🚫👁️ Watch closely. As an eye surgeon, this is exactly how I handle an itch, and there’s a massive reason why I do it this way. Notice how I am not aggressively rubbing across the cornea or putting high pressure on the eyeball itself? When you knuckle-rub or aggressively scrub your eyes, you risk warping your cornea, weakening the delicate tissue, and introducing bacteria. Your eyes are incredibly resilient, but they aren't meant to handle that kind of friction! 👉 Did you notice the specific technique I used?

Comment “FREE” and I’ll send you my FREE Longevity Playbook🔔 He did a 2-hour beast workout after MONTHS off. Next day his p*e looked like Coca-Cola. That night, his heart stopped. What happened? 👇 This is RHABDOMYOLYSIS - a life-threatening emergency every guy getting back into the gym needs to know about. When you push unconditioned muscles to absolute failure, your muscle fibers literally BURST and d*e. When they d*e they dump: 1. Myoglobin -> a toxic protein that clogs and shuts down your kidneys [that’s the cola-colored p*e] 2. Potassium -> a massive spike that short-circuits your heart and causes cardiac arrest Could he have been saved? 100% yes. If he went to the ER the second he saw dark urine, aggressive IV fluids would have flushed the toxins and saved his kidneys + heart. HOW TO AVOID IT: - Never go 0 to 100. If you’ve been off for months, start slowly… - Hydrate aggressively. Dehydrated kidneys + myoglobin = kidney failure. - Rule: If you have severe swelling + unbearable pain + dark brown/cola p*e after a hard workout, it’s an ER visit. Not tomorrow. NOW. It’s not just for athletes. Highest risk: Returning after a break / Bootcamp & military-style training / All-out HIIT / CrossFit / Training in extreme heat while dehydrated Your body always warns you. Don’t ignore it.

When it comes to treating skin cancer, precision matters. In this video, Dr. Laura Archibald, our dedicated Mohs surgeon, walks us through a Mohs surgery to remove skin cancer from a patient’s ear. Mohs surgery is a highly specialized technique used to treat certain types of skin cancer. The process is meticulous: a thin layer of tissue is removed, carefully examined under a microscope, and repeated only as needed until the margins are clear. This layer-by-layer approach allows the surgeon to target the cancer while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible- something that is especially important in delicate, highly visible areas like the ear, face, nose, and scalp. It’s a powerful reminder of why regular skin checks matter. Early detection can make treatment more precise, more effective, and often less invasive. If you have a spot that is changing, bleeding, not healing, or simply doesn’t look right, don’t wait to have it evaluated. #PremierDermatology #mohssurgery #mohssurgeon
