If the people at a medspa all have lips like those gigantic edible wax ones, would you walk out? Lip filler doesn’t have to look like that. Enhancing lips requires an artistic eye, the mastery of multiple techniques, and a good knowledge of the anatomy.

The viscosity of the filler should match its purpose: lip lines? Lip border? Lip volume? The best result may come from filler plus a toxin (like Botox or Daxxify) plus laser resurfacing. Why do so many people have overfilled lips? And what about men? This episode answers these questions and more.

Eye makeup in blues, purples, browns, and black on the upper lid, but not as circles under the eye. The different colors are associated with the different causes of dark circles: shadows, pigment, and blood vessels—aging, genetics, lack of sleep, allergies are culprits.

So what makes dark circles disappear? It depends on the cause. In this episode we look at the different treatments, from shrinking blood vessels, filling hollows, removing shadowy bags, plumping, and brightening.

How can red, blue, yellow, and green LED light improve skin? Turns out there are several ways.

Red can help treat wrinkles and fine lines. And blue is great for acne, even eliminating the acne-causing bacteria, reducing sebum production (unclog those pores!) and reduces inflammation—great when you’re in the midst of a breakout.

To find out costs, recovery, and how a home unit compares with an in-office machine, we’ll tell you all that and more in this episode.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into Skin Peels. How deep? Into the dermis. Wrinkles, melasma, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, acne, and acne scars can all improve with the right peel.

Single-chemical peels, like TCA, are increasingly effective the higher the concentration, but the risk goes up, too.

Mixtures work like a sports team with each ingredient playing a different role. Is a chemical peel as effective as laser resurfacing? That depends. Tune in to discover how to get the best treatment to meet your goals.

What do skin peels do? Are home peels as good as professional peels? The common theme of all peels is exfoliation, but they can do so much more. In this episode, we discuss chemical, enzyme, and physical peels. Depending on their ingredients, they can treat acne, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and uneven tone. They stimulate collagen formation, help your skincare products penetrate deeper, and let your fresh skin show through. There’s a reason celebrities swear by regular skin peels. But they aren’t risk-free. What should you know to protect yourself and get the best results? Tune in to find out.

In this episode we look behind the scenes and into the medspa fridge. Where did the injector get the product? If not directly from the manufacturer, look for another medspa.

Maybe you’ve decided to smooth your frown lines or get Barbie Tox—just a jab in the trap—to give you Margot Robbie’s neck. But what toxin should you use? Does it matter? Our guest, oculoplastic surgeon Dr. Steve Fagien and international expert in neurotoxins and fillers explains the ways Botox, Dysport, Daxxify, Xeomin, and Jeuveau differ, and how that impacts you, the patient.

Fillers, the other “injectables,” are often called dermal fillers, but there’s more to them than that. Fillers volumize, filling in hollows and crevasses and augmenting cheeks and chins. But Dr. Fagien’s research shows that hyaluronic acid fillers do something even more extraordinary: They boost the production of collagen and elastin. Does that matter to you? Join us on Skintuition and find out that and much more.

We shave it, braid it, and dye it like a fashion piece. Hair. Half of men and nearly as many women experience the emotional distress of losing it.

Fortunately, treatments can help, and our guest, Dr. Barry DiBernardo, explains what works to regrow hair, what doesn't, and who the best candidates are. Over 100 genes play a role in loss of hair, which is why there are so many medications, supplements, shampoos, and conditioners available.

Laser treatment, a home laser cap, and off-label injection of PRP and exosomes are treatments Dr. DiBernardo discusses. After total hair loss, hair transplant may be the best option.

What is the best option for you or your loved one? Dr. DiBernardo takes you through the considerations, how to find a practitioner, and what to expect.
