Say No to Bleaching: The Real Health Risks | Tea With Tay x Eucerin Live Panel
About this episode
Skin bleaching has been normalized for decades, in homes, salons, markets, and across social media. But what many people still see as “just skincare” is, in reality, a serious health issue.
In partnership with Eucerin, Tea With Tay hosted a live panel conversation as part of the #SayNoToBleaching campaign, an advocacy-led discussion focused on education, prevention, and healthy skin practices without shame or judgement.
Across two powerful sessions, leading dermatologists from across Nigeria break down:
-What actually qualifies as skin bleaching
-The most common ingredients and hidden risks
-Short-term and long-term health complications
-The myths people still believe
-The role of colorism and cultural pressure
-Youth, social media, and rising early exposure
-Prevention strategies and safe skincare habits
SESSION 1 FEATURES:
Dr. Cynthia Ebie: Consultant Dermatologist, Deputy Clinical Director, General Hospital Lagos
Prof. Altraide Daseltima: President, Nigerian Association of Dermatology (NAD)

SESSION 2 FEATURES:
Dr. Uzoamaka Iloabachie: Medical Director, Skintisfaction Dermatology & Aesthetic Clinic
Dr. Faiza Saduki: Consultant Dermatologist, Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital

This conversation is not about policing choices. It’s about understanding risks, unlearning harmful beauty standards, and choosing health from a place of knowledge.
Healthy skin isn’t about changing who you are.
It’s about caring for what you already have.
