Why a Dermal Filler Certification Matters:

These days, it seems as though you can undergo a dermal filler treatment from anyone who offers them.  Medical spas, aesthetic centers, and even hair salons are getting into the dermal filler game by offering their clients the promise of facial rejuvenation with just a quick treatment session.

I Had Post-Bariatric Surgery – Now What?

Undergoing bariatric surgery – a type of surgery that’s designed to help obese patients lose weight – can be a major undertaking.  People who are extremely obese can undergo gastric bypass surgery, which restricts the size of the stomach.  The smaller stomach makes it difficult for someone to overeat, thus helping the person lose weight. Even after losing weight, however, many patients may still feel unhappy or uncomfortable with their appearance.  After losing a significant amount of weight, many patients are left with excessive sagging skin, which may make them [...]

Can’t Stop Sweating? Here’s Your Answer Summer may almost be over – but if you can’t stop sweating no matter what time of year it might be, you might be desperate for answers.

Botox: Who Is Too Young to Get It?

If you’re looking for the most naturally youthful appearance possible, it’s likely you’ve stumbled across Juvederm Voluma during your research.  As we age, the face loses essential fats that are critical to maintaining youthful volume in the cheeks.  The end result is a hollow, drooping look that can’t be fixed with any anti-wrinkle cream or Botox injection.
