A medical question about your skin?
This inbox can't give personal medical advice or a diagnosis. For a changing mole, a persistent rash, or any condition that isn't improving, please see a board-certified dermatologist near you. For an emergency, call 911.
What this page is for
Three good reasons to write.
The reviews and the Journal are how Dr. Vane helps most readers — but the desk is always listening for what to test next.
Ask about a review
Unsure how a verdict applies to your skin type, or want to know why something scored the way it did? Ask — clarifications often improve the next update.
Press & media
Journalists and producers can reach Dr. Vane for expert commentary on dermatology and skincare. Details and past features are on the press page.
Before you write
Questions readers ask first.
Can I suggest a product for review?
Absolutely — it's one of the main reasons this page exists. Send the brand and product name (a whole category is fine too) and why you're curious. Suggestions genuinely shape the testing queue, though, to protect the desk's independence, a suggestion is never a promise of a favorable review.
Do you offer personal skincare consultations?
No. Sarah Skin MD is an independent editorial review desk, not a telehealth or appointment service. The reviews, the Journal, and the methodology are how Dr. Vane shares her expertise here. For care tailored to your individual skin, please see a board-certified dermatologist near you.
How do brands work with you?
Brands may send products for possible consideration, but a sample buys nothing: it's disclosed, it never affects a score, and most products are bought at full retail regardless. There is no paid placement, no sponsored ranking, and no copy approval. Read the full editorial standards.
I have a medical question about my skin — can you help?
Not individually. This inbox can't diagnose or give medical advice for your specific skin, and nothing here creates a doctor–patient relationship. For anything medical — a new or changing mole, a stubborn rash, a condition that isn't improving — please see a dermatologist in person. In an emergency, call 911.
Will you reply to everything?
We read every message and reply to as many as we can, usually within one business day. Thoughtful questions and product suggestions tend to get the fullest responses — and sometimes become a whole review.
