Years ago, if one wanted to refresh their appearance, they may undergo a facelift. In the early 2000s, anti-aging took a turn away from surgery. Over the course of the past 15-plus years, more facial rejuvenating treatments involved injectables like Botox and dermal fillers. Today, we’ve got even more to appreciate in the anti-aging game. […]
Eyelid surgery has become a popular procedure for adults who want to revive the energetic value of their face. We all know that our inner vibrancy shines through our eyes, so correcting age-related sagging and narrowing makes perfect sense. As often happens when a procedure demonstrates effectiveness, more people start having it. This isn’t entirely […]

In fashion, what is old almost always becomes new again. Could we say the same thing about a cosmetic treatment like Botox? It’s possible, but not in the same way it occurs with fashion trends. Botox has been around for several years and, in that time, we’ve come to know so much about it that […]
A recent study on sunscreen use revealed that most folks inherently forget one area of the face when applying this necessary product: the eyes. We don’t have to think too hard to see why. Most of us are relatively shy about applying any product around the eyes for fear of unsolicited irritation. The problem is, […]

Microneedling. This term may sound unusual, if not completely unappealing. Truth be told, microneedling has been a popular and effective beauty technique for many years.
