13. Emily (@dremilylipinski)
If you have hormonal acne (around the jaw and chin), a puffy face and dry skin, it is always a good idea to get your thyroid levels assessed.
Dr. Emily here talks about the symptoms she experienced for some time before getting diagnosed with hypothyroidism. Worry not, because medication, diet, and lifestyle can turn everything back to normal.
@dremilylipinski Facial diagnosis or facial mapping: the face can provide insight into hormonal imbalances. Signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism often show on the face. These issues I no longer have after healing my thyroid naturally. #facialmapping #facediagnosis #facemapping #hypothyroidism #hypothyroidismproblems #hypothyroidie #thyroidsignsandsymptoms #thyroidimbalance #hormonesymptoms #signsofhormonalimbalance #puffyface #thinninghair #thinningeyebrows #thyroidweightloss #thyroidweightgain #thyroidweight #thyroidwarrior #signsandsymptoms #healingyourthyroidnaturally #naturalthyroidhealing #healingyourthyroid #balancinghormonesnaturally #balancinghormones #thyroidsymptoms #hypothyroidsymptoms #knowthesigns #swollenneck #coldnose #hairloss #thyroidhairloss #thyroidhelp #bodysignals #bodysigns #knowthesignsandsymptoms ♬ original sound – Emily Lipinski, ND

For instance, look at this video where she shares certain skincare ingredients that work well for oily and acne-prone skin. Can you spot your favorite ingredient in her list?
@matetemathobela Having oily skinnis not always a bad thing as people with oily skin wrinkle slower than people with dry skins, however no one likes walking around looking like they have poured oil on their skin. Look for ingredients like niacinamide, zinc, green tea extracts, salicylic acid and retinoids in your products to help with the appearance of your oily skin.#oilyskin #oilyskincare #oilyskinproducts #skin #skincare #glassskin #glassskincareroutine #drmatete #dermatologist #matskin ♬ Very cute melody by marimba tone(39813) – Mitsu Sound
