Skin & Anti-Aging in Johnson City, TN

What Is Integrative Skin & Anti-Aging Medicine?

True skin health is a reflection of overall health. While topical treatments may help with skin appearance, a whole-person approach also looks at what is happening inside, hormonal balance, nutritional status, inflammation, gut health, oxidative stress, and cellular aging. At AWAREmed in Johnson City, TN, skin and anti-aging care begins from the inside out.

Dr. Dalal Akoury, MD, MPH takes a comprehensive, integrative approach to skin health and anti-aging that goes beyond topical solutions. She evaluates internal factors that may contribute to skin aging, including hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, inflammation, gut imbalances, and environmental exposures, and offers personalized supportive protocols while also caring for the skin's external environment.

The result is a personalized approach that aims to support healthy, radiant skin as part of overall inner health, complemented by evidence-informed aesthetic support where appropriate.
