Whether you lament about breakouts and acne scars, curse crows feet and marionette lines, or worry about sunburns and melanoma (take this quiz to see if that suspect mole might be cancer ), we're here to quell your skin fears. How? We're bringing Dr. Ronald Moy to you (well, not literally, but …) -- a renowned dermatologist and cosmetic surgeon with a practice in Beverly Hills, Calif. According to Moy, these are the questions you should ask your derm and we couldn't help but ask him for answers (in case you don't have one or can't afford one):

1. How do I know if I'm aging well or not?

Determining how well you're aging is really about assessing how much sun damage you have, says Dr. Moy. So if you are more of a sun worshiper, then you probably aren't aging as well as someone who avoids the sun. Aging skin woes like wrinkles and splotchyness are really just results of sun damage. However, he says that things like topical retinoid creams, Botox and fillers can counter signs of aging (if you're open to going that route). See if your lifestyle is causing your wrinkles.

2. How do I know if I'm ready for Botox or not?

If you see lines and they bother you, then you could be ready. It most likely won't be necessary in your early 20s, says Dr. Moy, but it really depends on how much you smile, squint, frown, scrunch your forehead, etc. and -- wait for it -- how much time you spend in the sun. Generally speaking though, you might be ready for Botox in your 30s. Take this quiz to find out.

3. How can I avoid getting skin cancer?

We all know that wearing sunscreen and hats or just staying out of the sun all together are some no-brainer ways to prevent skin cancer, but Dr. Moy shares a new finding with us. He says that using a night cream that contains DNA repair enzymes can reduce your overall risk of skin cancer by 30-50 percent. But before you go using that, check out the 15 sunscreen mistakes you're likely making.

4. What's the best sunscreen to use?

It seems counterintuitive since there are a ton of different types of sunscreens on the market, but recent studies have shown that melanoma is on the rise and UVA rays are responsible for this potentially deadly form of skin cancer. (FYI, tanning beds are pure UVA rays -- eek -- thank goodness for the tanning tax, maybe it'll save us from our tan-obsessed selves.) Well, Dr. Moy explains that a lot of older sunscreens block UVB not UVA rays, which creates a false sense of security (we are all more likely to soak up the sun with SPF on, but in reality if we're not blocking UVA rays we are getting sun damage). He says to ensure that you're protected, use an SPF that blocks UVA and UVB rays such as Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 100+ with Helioplex, $12.99.

5. What can I do to make myself look better?

Dr. Moy says that there are four different types of procedures that can help make you look better -- who are we kidding -- younger. Ask your dermatologist if you are a good candidate for one or any of the following: 



a. Resurfacing procedures 


b. Fillers (See which facial filler is right for you.)

c. Tightening or lifting procedures 


d. Botox or relaxing procedures

6. What's causing my acne?

While it's common knowledge that clogged pores and bacteria can cause acne, Dr. Moy explains what else it could be and what to do about it:

Hormones: Your acne could be elicited by your birth control pill, so getting rid of your skin imperfections could be as simple as switching to a different pill.

Diet: Acne has been linked to sugar and dairy, so you could try cutting back on both to see if your diet is triggering your breakouts.

Stress: Leave it to good ol' stress to manifest itself in ugly ways like zits. Take this quiz to see if stress is the culprit, and if so, then try these easy tips for reducing stress and tension.
