Welcome to SKINnovation! I’m Dr. Shannon C. Trotter, board certified dermatologist, host of the Derm-it Trotter! Don’t Swear About Skincare podcast and author of The Tea Zone newsletter. I love educating others about their skin, trying new skincare products and busting skin myths. Coffee is my obsession and mediocrity is my pet peeve.
My favorite home appliance is my label maker and I’m always down for a good joke. My life philosophy is simple–focus on new experiences and not things, help others achieve success and cherish your family and friends, but do it all with amazing skin!
Do you have skin in the game? No sitting on the sidelines for my patients. I motivate my patients to become active participants in their skincare.
Don’t beat yourself up for what you did years ago– tanning, baby oil, reflectors. What matters is that you are here today. Our skin has a profound impact on so many aspects of our lives. As a dermatologist, it’s a privilege to help people with their skin. There’s nothing more rewarding than witnessing the transformative power of skincare, and how treating someone’s skin can completely change their life.
When you take care of your skin, you take care of you. That’s the foundation for helping you become your best self to live your best life.
