From balancing her career and motherhood to sharing skincare wisdom, Dr. Kappel brought a wealth of insight that anyone looking to elevate their self-care or skin health can learn from.
Stefani Kappel’s Journey: Passion and Perseverance
Dr. Stef has spent over 15 years in the dermatology world, building a reputation as a trusted expert in skincare, injectables, and laser treatments. But, like many successful women, her journey wasn’t always easy. During the episode, Stefani shared her experiences navigating the demands of building a career while raising a family.
One thing was clear: her passion for dermatology and her relentless perseverance were key ingredients in her success.
Reflecting on her path, Stefani also opened up about something many of us can relate to—struggling to find balance. “I think I would have done, what I would have done differently is I wouldn’t have sacrificed so much with the hustle, and I wish I would have enjoyed my babies more, to be honest,” she admitted. It’s a powerful reminder that no matter how successful we become, it’s essential to find time for the people and moments that matter most.
From Alopecia to Skincare: Expert Tips for Hair and Skin Health
One of the most enlightening parts of this episode was Dr. Stef’s discussion about alopecia. Whether scarring or non-scarring, hair loss can be distressing, but Stefani explained the differences and shared her expert advice on managing it.
She also touched on how Natural Beaded Rows (NBR) extensions—can affect scalp health. The key takeaway? NBR extensions are designed to be gentler on the hair follicles, making them a healthier option for those concerned about hair loss or damage.
Did we just hear dermatologist-approved hair extensions?! Yes! Dr. Stef has been a wearer of NBR Hair Extensions since 2018 and has talked about the NBR extension method on her Youtube Channel.
But the conversation didn’t stop at hair health and NBR. Stefani also delved into injectables, offering crucial advice for those considering treatments like Botox, Dysport, or Daxify. Her biggest recommendation? Always seek out a board-certified professional. In an industry where credentials can be misleading, Stefani stressed the importance of finding a trusted provider to avoid dangerous black market products.
Lasers, Skincare Lines, and More
As if her expertise in hair and injectables wasn’t enough, Stefani also specializes in laser treatments, customizing them to meet her clients’ individual skin needs. Whether you’re dealing with redness or pigmentation issues, her personalized approach ensures the best results.
Stefani’s passion for skincare goes even further with her skincare line, MD-AIR. Infused with the latest scientific advancements, MD-AIRE offers high-quality products that deliver real results, and Stefani’s enthusiasm for her creations is contagious. Her dedication to empowering her clients and patients through education and skincare shines through in everything she does.
The Key to Healthy Skin: It’s Not Just About Products
Beyond professional treatments and high-end skincare, Stefani emphasized the importance of a holistic approach to skin health. It’s not just about what you put on your skin but also how you treat your body. Staying hydrated, eating a clean diet, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly all play a role in keeping your skin youthful and glowing. And, of course, consistency is key—whether it’s sticking to a skincare routine or prioritizing self-care.
