There are very few people outside the field of dermatology who are aware of how abrasive the majority of fabric materials can be to the face, even natural fabrics like cotton. At night as your face rests against your pillow, this thin, delicate skin is exposed for a long period of time to the material of your pillowcase. With most other fabrics, the act of constantly compressing your face as you sleep will eventually begin to leave impressions. Over time these impressions may turn into permanent wrinkles. In an ideal world, we would all sleep face up, never needing to think about speeding up the aging process while we are resting. Fortunately, for those of us who don't live in an ideal world, there is an alternative: sleeping on silk. Silk is a natural, breathable fabric recognized for its kindness to the aging process. It is also hypoallergenic by nature, so there is no risk of sensitivity.



9. Stop smoking.
Collagen is produced naturally by the body and aids in plumping up the skin, which helps to keep wrinkles and sagging at bay. While we are young and healthy, collagen continues to break down and regenerate. As we age this process slows, enabling wrinkles to creep into the depressions left unfilled by new collagen growth. Research has shown that collagen production is stunted in smokers, speeding up the onset of visible signs of aging.



10. Find someone you trust to watch over your skin and get a deeper skin peel once a month.

PLEASE NOTE: Do not take NSAID’s (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), anti-inflammatories, Vitamin E, or drink alcohol the day before any injectable treatment. This is to ensure that you don’t experience any excessive bleeding or bruising during or after your treatment.

​Minor bruising and localized swelling at the injection site may occur. Apply a light, cool compress to the injection site immediately after your treatment to reduce bruising and swelling. You may continue to use a cool compress for up to 24 hours after your treatment. Do not apply ice directly onto your skin.​​​

​A cold compress may be used to reduce discomfort after lip injections, however, this can increase swelling on the lips.
