Facing the Truth: How to Look Your Best!




A recent article just came out discussing whether or not face and neck exercises can help make you look younger. The answer: Probably not. If you run a Google search, many electronic and manual devices will come up, but none can conclusively help target facial muscles and rejuvenate your face.

While practicing healthy habits like eating a balanced diet and exercising will help you overall, here are some procedures that can keep you looking young without resorting to gimmicks and facial calisthenics.

1. Skin, Skin, Skin - taking care of your skin can go a long way.
 First step is having a good skincare regimen at home that consists of cleaning, moisturizing and exfoliating. Treatments like facials, microdermabrasion, laser and light skin resurfacing helps maintain and treat conditions like acne, rosacea, large pores, wrinkles and sunspots. For deeper wrinkles, sagging and loss of volume, you may seek out injectables like botulinum toxin, hylauronic acid and other fillers.

Not All Fat is Treated the Same -- Am I a Good Candidate for Liposuction?



Most of us have at least one area that's going to annoy us forever. No matter how many calories you cut and miles you run, you cant get away from it. There's a bulge or a spillage of fat that stubbornly clings to your body like a parasite.

It's no wonder that liposuction is the number one cosmetic surgery in the country. It has become integral to a population increasingly more aware of getting healthy and looking that way. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), over 41,000 men had the procedure, which helped liposuction surpass breast augmentation from the number one spot in 2010 with over 325,000 procedures performed.
