In the ABC interview I linked to below he looks really weird no matter how much bright light they shine on him for the interview (lighting is everything). He doesn't look healthy to me!

He does look strange- it's mainly his hair I think. It looks fake and alters his whole look. His body is outwardly in great shape.

Yeah, my thought was hair (looks like implants, but what do I know) and manicured brows. And then the skin that looks like it doesn't see much sun, so it's undamaged but also a bit pallid/grey.

Kind of reminds me of Data.

I believe he dyes it. This could make the colour look a little off.

He looks a bit like Data from Star Trek TNG

Leaning hard into what would the 25th century value, but on limited data.

He frequently renews his skin through rather extensive skincare. In health terms, ideal skin has no sun damage or micro-scars/exterior damage and, therefore, is not surprising that he does look like some sort of vampire. I mean, the guy even transfuses blood from his kid.

What is he doing?

For non-invasive skincare he does daily face-wash, moisturizing creams (face and body), application of creams containing Vitamin C, E, B3 and more. Personally, it is enough to apply some moisturizer (for face and body) and UV-protective cream. If you want really smooth/clean face then you can look into getting some retinol/retinoid - the stronger the better the effect as long as your skin can tolerate (so requires experimentation). Stick to proven brands such as Cerave, Eucerin and few other big ones.

For more invasive procedures he does microneedle and laser procedures. Both operate on principle of basically causing controlled damage on the skin to force your body to repair it. I used to have some stretch marks that were repaired using CO2 laser. Before trying to do any of this - consult your local dermatologist if you have something that bothers you on the skin, however. These procedures can be costly, requires after-care and obviously should be performed by certified professionals.

He also does microbotox injections to clear any pores. In my opinion this is now veering off more to cosmetic enhancement with fillers and the like.
