Why should your fertility journey mean your skin health falls off the map? It was this very question Dr. Jo Mennie felt passionate (and ragey) about during her own fertility experience - how labour intensive it was to find accessible, expert advice on looking after your skin at each turbulent stage, from pre-pregnancy to conception, trimesters and the post-partum journey.  Now a leading aesthetic doctor specialising in women’s health, Dr. Jo is here with me today to clear up the murky waters of pregnancy skincare - the ingredients do’s and don’ts, some age-optimising alternatives and the most advanced body treatments that can tighten tummies and smooth saddlebags, repairing post partum skin damage, without going under the knife. It’s all straight talking today - no baby talk we promise. About our guest: Dr. Jo Mennie is a leading Aesthetic Doctor with over 12 years of experience working in plastic surgery in the NHS.
