National demand for minimally invasive anti-aging treatments remains robust. According to the most recent statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the number of minimally invasive procedures performed by its members increased by 7% year-over-year in 2023. As this figure does not account for non-ASPS member providers, actual growth could be much higher.

If you are a postpubescent woman, there is an 85% or greater likelihood that you will develop gynoid lipodystrophy (GLD). “Say what?” You ask, while thinking, Oh great, here’s something else I’ve got to worry about.

Despite diet and exercise, women struggle to keep their skin smooth and firm as they age due to natural declines in the quantity and functioning of dermal collagen fibers. Age-induced collagen loss typically starts causing skin laxity problems by age 40, and more than 90% of women will develop the orange-peel skin texture of cellulite formation on at least one part of their bodies. For some women, skin laxity and cellulite issues can emerge in their 20s.

If you’ve heard about the potent anti-aging skin-conditioning treatment called Aquagold®, you probably have some questions about it.

Customizable for specific skin concerns and aesthetic goals, Aquagold® can effectively treat fine lines, wrinkles, laxity, scarring, oversized pores, and more for a more youthful appearance.

Almost everyone is familiar with Botox®, the world’s most popular minimally invasive, injectable treatment for fine lines and wrinkles. According to the latest statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, nearly 9.5 million Americans underwent treatment with Botox® and similar neuromodulating injectable therapies in 2023. Meanwhile, about 8.4 million Americans underwent anti-aging treatment with more than a dozen other injectable formulations.

Menopause is the inevitable stage in every woman’s life that marks the end of fertility and reproductive capability. While not a disease, the changes to the body brought on by menopause affect our health and can compromise our quality of life. Menopause’s impacts on vaginal health are particularly noticeable, and related symptoms include:

More than 15% of women ages 18 to 50 experience pre-menopause vaginal dryness, and over half of post-menopausal women experience the painful symptom, according to the Cleveland Clinic. The condition is most noticeable when trying to enjoy sexual intercourse, but vaginal dryness can also cause pain and discomfort while sitting, walking, exercising, peeing, and other activities. Reduced estrogen production caused by menopause naturally leads to vaginal dryness in many women, though other health conditions and some medical treatments can cause it, too.

Do you want to “say goodbye to aging skin?” Would you happily undergo a non-invasive treatment that can address a wide range of skin conditions to produce a visibly younger-looking complexion?

Diet and exercise will only go so far in helping you tighten and smooth facial and bodily contours as you age. Aging decreases the growth and resiliency of the collagen and elastin that undergird your skin, leading to sagging, wrinkling, and cellulite formation. Even if you successfully shred fat through diet and exercise, sagging skin and unsightly cellulite can compromise your efforts.

When a fungus causes mold or mildew growth in your home, it undoubtedly elicits an “ew”-like reaction and rapid efforts to clean and destroy it. If you were to learn of fungal growth on your body, your initial “ew” response might be tinged with concerns about how to treat it. Not to alarm you, but if your toenails are discolored, thickening, cracking, or breaking, you may have a fungal infection. Toenail fungus affects 10% to 15% of the population and can be challenging to treat.
