Today’s facelifts, no matter what kind, are worlds apart from what was available even 10 years ago. The “standard” facelift today is called a full facelift, but there are even modifications within...
Twenty years ago on Sex and the City, Samantha Jones famously underwent a chemical peel. She had gone to her doctor for a little Botox but got talked into a peel because it would “take just 15 minutes” and make her look “ten to twenty years younger.” Such a promise is hard to resist (reality check: peels don’t make you look that much younger, except for perhaps a deep peel which is rarely performed these...
Tummy tucks are popular amongst both men and women who want to get rid of sagging abdominal skin that doesn’t budge with diet and exercise alone.

With hollow needles, it also delivers RF energy directly where it is needed. There are other RF technologies, but they typically do not go into the skin and are rather externally applied....

There’s no standard set of procedures involved in a mommy makeover, one of the most-requested treatments at Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center. However, a mommy makeover is typically comprised of a tummy tuck, breast augmentation, and liposuction. The term is a bit of a misnomer, because it’s not just “mommies” who get these (usually) surgical makeovers.

When it comes to non-invasive procedures, what’s best—a facial or a chemical peel? It completely depends on what you want to achieve, but for many people a chemical peel is best.
