Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Michelle Henry

Sourced directly from Dr. Michelle Henry's social posts and replies.

What causes dark circles under the eyes and how are they treated?
Dark circles are commonly caused by either hyperpigmentation (excess pigment) or a hollow appearance due to fat loss with aging. Hyperpigmentation can be genetic, related to conditions like eczema or allergies, and is more common in women of color (Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, South Asian heritage). For under-eye hollowness, filler is a frequently recommended treatment, which Dr. Henry performs in her practice.

What is traction alopecia and how does Dr. Henry treat it?
Traction alopecia is hair loss caused by pulling and tugging from harsh styling like tight braids, extensions, or wigs rubbing on the scalp. Dr. Henry's practice has successfully treated hair edges for years. She advises patients to stop harsh styling and seek treatment sooner for the best chance of hair regrowth. In-office treatments include custom toxin solutions, steroid injections, and PRP injections to stimulate growth. She also suggests practical tips like stitching satin inside wigs to prevent rubbing.

What is Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia (FFA) and how is it treated with FUT?
Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia (FFA) is a type of scarring hair loss that affects the eyebrows and frontal scalp. After appropriate medical management and stabilization, FFA patients can be candidates for surgical hair restoration. Dr. Henry performs Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), which she considers a great technique for female hair restoration, as it allows for a large number of grafts without thinning the rest of the hair. Drastic results can be seen in as little as three months.

What is an epidermal nevus and what are the considerations for its surgical removal?
An epidermal nevus is an abnormal, noncancerous patch of skin caused by an overgrowth of cells in the outermost layer. For small epidermal nevi, surgical excision is the treatment of choice. It's important to note that superficial removal methods often lead to recurrence, and while more aggressive approaches may be more successful, they carry a higher risk of postoperative scarring.

What are the key ingredients and benefits of L'Oreal Triple Power Moisturizer?
The L'Oreal Triple Power Moisturizer contains hyaluronic acid (attracts and holds up to a thousand times its weight in water for hydration), Vitamin C (a potent antioxidant that protects the skin from environmental damage, leaving it brighter and more even tone), and pro-retinol (a gentler, more stable form of retinol that helps smooth fine lines and wrinkles while being kind to your skin). It also includes SPF for added protection.

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 (2024)

$51,955

Payments

64

Compared to peers

Substantially above average

Dr. Michelle Henry received $51,955 across 64 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 97% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as consulting fee, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE 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?”

Addresses challenging conditions like dark spots, sun spots, and post-acne marks, recommending products like La Roche-Posay Mela B3 serum (containing Melasyl and 10% niacinamide) for its efficacy in reducing melanin production and improving skin tone, with research showing improvement in as little as eight weeks.

Emphasizes that skincare results depend on a combination of effective ingredients and consistent use, advocating for well-formulated products over overly complicated routines. Highlights the benefits of ingredients like Vitamin C (brightening, antioxidant), Vitamin B3 (improves tone, supports barrier), and collagen peptides (improves firmness).
