  • Dr. Doris Day's practice notes that improving necklace lines generally requires many laser sessions, injectables, and long-term skincare.

Training & credentials

  • I’ve spent thirty years studying how we age, watching and contributing to the science as it evolves, testing what works, and sharing everything I learn along the way

Safety

  • Dr. Doris Day would not inject Calisum without understanding its repercussions and how it works differently when injected into a deeper layer and absorbed into the body.
  • Dr. Doris Day recommends against injecting exosomes until one knows exactly what they are getting.

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Doris Day

Sourced directly from Dr. Doris Day's social posts and replies.

What habits contribute most to aging?
The habits that contribute most significantly to aging are those performed repeatedly and unconsciously throughout the day. These fast-aging habits are easily overlooked and can be difficult to reverse once they have accumulated.
Why does sunscreen on the upper lip need frequent reapplication?
The upper lip loses sunscreen quickly due to breathing and natural moisture, sometimes within minutes of application. Therefore, it needs to be reapplied more often than on any other part of the face.
What type of sunscreen is best for the upper lip?
A stick sunscreen formula adheres better than a lotion formula for the upper lip, which tends to lose sunscreen quickly.
How much UV exposure does the neck receive?
The neck receives the same daily UV exposure as the face.
What is the correct way to apply sunscreen to the neck?
Sunscreen should be applied to the neck from the bottom up to ensure that areas which lose coverage first get the most product. It should be reapplied consistently.
How should my retinol approach change as I age?
Retinol does not stop working as skin ages, but the way your skin responds to it changes, meaning your approach to using it needs to change with it. This is because fibroblasts, which retinol is designed to stimulate, become less efficient over time and need more support for their own repair to perform their function. Therefore, pairing retinol with ingredients that protect and energize those cells makes a significant difference for aging skin. It's also worth reconsidering the form of retinol you're using, as prescription strength retinoic acid that worked well in your 40s may be more than your skin needs or can effectively use in your 50s and 60s. A well-formulated over-the-counter retinol, especially with supporting antioxidants and peptides, often delivers better results with less disruption to the skin microbiome, which also shifts with age.
What is the current state of regenerative medicine in aesthetics?
Regenerative medicine is currently in its early stages, but its future is advancing rapidly.
What are the risks of product misuse in aesthetics?
Social media has fostered a culture of product misuse, where items are used off-label, at unstudied doses, and by individuals who don't understand the risks of systemic absorption when topical products enter deeper tissue. The consequences can be severe and manifest rapidly. Therefore, products that were not designed, tested, or approved for injection should not be injected. An ingredient that is effective when applied topically is not automatically safe when it bypasses the skin barrier and is directly injected. Only products specifically made and tested for injection should be used, administered by a qualified professional who knows how to respond if complications arise.
What is 'tech neck' and how is it addressed?
Tech neck is one of the most common conditions Dr. Day treats, and also one of the most preventable. The neck is often one of the first places age becomes visible, yet it's frequently overlooked for treatment until lines and bands have been developing for years. In-office treatments can significantly improve firmness, texture, and the appearance of vertical bands. However, patient habits are just as crucial as professional treatments. Dr. Day recommends applying all face skincare products, such as retinol, SPF, and longevity serum, to the neck consistently and always in an upward direction.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2025)

$56,229

Payments

71

Compared to peers

Substantially above average

Dr. Doris Day received $56,229 across 71 payments in 2025. That is higher than about 97% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as compensation for services other than consulting, including serving as faculty or as a speaker at a venue other than a continuing education program, and the largest single payer was REVANCE THERAPEUTICS, INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
