In this episode of Polished Beauty, I sit down with board-certified oculoplastic surgeon Dr. Soheila Rostami to break down skincare by decade — from your 20s to your 60s and beyond.

What should you prioritize in your 20s? What changes in your 30s? When do collagen loss, volume shifts, and skin laxity truly begin to show?

We walk through each decade and share the top three expert recommendations for prevention, correction, and long-term facial health.

This is not influencer skincare. This is surgical-level insight simplified for real women who want to age intelligently.

Whether you're focused on prevention, maintenance, or refinement — this episode gives you a strategic roadmap for your face at every stage of life.

Because pro-aging is about precision, not panic. Let's get polished

Peptides are everywhere right now — from fat loss and muscle building to sexual health and anti-aging. But what are they really? And are they safe?

In this episode, Dr. Daisy Ayim sits down with Dr. Raheleh "Rahi" Sarbaziha, a leading integrative physician from Beverly Hills — often called the “Queen of Peptides” — to unpack the science behind peptide therapy.

We explore:

• How peptides function as cellular messengers • Their role in metabolic optimization • Peptides vs GLP-1 medications • Regenerative applications in skin and sexual health • Safety, sourcing, and ethical prescribing

This is a sophisticated, evidence-informed conversation about where medicine is heading — and how women can approach peptide therapy with clarity, strategy, and empowerment.

Palm oil is often misunderstood—but metabolically, it’s one of the most stable cooking fats used globally. You should be consuming palm oil but why isn't it prominent on our grocery shelves?

In this episode, Dr. Daisy Ayim explains why palm oil is not a seed oil, how it differs from highly processed industrial oils, and why its fatty acid profile makes it better suited for heat and everyday cooking. We also explore how history, global trade, and environmental narratives shaped palm oil’s reputation—often overshadowing its nutritional strengths.

This conversation reframes palm oil as a culturally rooted, widely used, and metabolically sound fat for food, medicine and skin.

If you’re looking for a smarter, balanced perspective on palm oil fats—without fear or extremes—this episode offers clarity.
