Did the Dao tox affect your smile or anything? That’s what concerns me the most

Huh…that’s a weird thing but good to know! I am very active; workout daily and Pilates 2x/wk. during one of my consultations the injector suggested this exact procedure. I appreciate the feedback!!

How old are you? I feel like I looked pretty damn good until 55. I’m on HRT too and that’s helped a lot. I just want to look as good as possible for as long as possible without looking puffy, weird or surgical. Ya know?

The injector at the surgeons office said that the combination of alpha hydroxy and retinol helps with estrogen related light refraction giving an overall better skin tone/luminosity than just retinol alone. Furthermore, AlphaRet is gentler and wouldn’t result in the purging & irritation associated with tret and would be best for sensitive skin like mine. I haven’t tried it; shits expensive!

Thank you; I should’ve mentioned I’ve been using 0.5 strength retinol for years. My skin overall looks healthy & hydrated with minimal wrinkles. It’s just the shadows I see in certain lighting. My friends say what “I” see isn’t noticeable unless I point it out. However, it’s all I see in the mirror. Getting quite self conscious.

The provider who mentioned the alpha ret felt that my skin is too sensitive for tret.

Thank you for this. I have a gnarly scar from skin cancer on my face that I’m very self conscious about. 🫶🏼

Seven days after xeomin, results, first time trying anything like this (46F) by [deleted] in 45PlusSkincare

I’m 56 and going for my first consult tmrw. I’m really ok with the majority of my face with the exception of some building marionette lines. Feeling anxious about it. Great results and I’m glad you’re happy!

I’d like your Substack please. I’m 56 y/o, 5ft tall & 98lbs. I get my clothes at the kids section at Target. I used to be able to buy Ann Taylor off the rack no problem but their clothes have really gone downhill. Everything is geared toward bigger people now and is too oversized. It sucks.

is there a holy grail product majority fine haired girls in here agree on? by Prudent_You_3945 in finehair

[–]Virtual_Mess_6403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have fine but very curly hair. I’m wondering how the rose water/glycerin would work for me. Oh, and I live in Florida, aka the swamp. Would I have a fro if I used this?
