editor’s letter. As you travel on your beauty quest, go with your gut—find a product that speaks to you and try it.

finding the right beauty product can be a process. For starters, there is usually an instant attraction—or there isn’t. There has to be something that piques your interest in order for you to want to invest a little more time finding out if it is “the one.” And so it went for us as we combed through thousands of products that were submitted for our annual Beauty Choice Awards. The amount of products that came streaming into our offices was staggering. We filled rooms that weren’t ours; we took over people’s desks and workspaces. Products were spilling out of boxes almost everywhere we turned. We analyzed each and every submission and noted that there were some interesting trends in types of products: New sunscreen formulations, cushion compacts, sleeping masks, overnight products and multitasking hair products that solve at least five problems. My incredibly organized editors, one in particular, took on the task of arranging these products in a logical manner so we could start the laborious process of opening each jar and vial—sniffing, touching and testing our way through the sea of products to narrow down our selections to be voted on. Along the way, I’d uncover products that I had an instant affinity for so I carried a bag with me almost constantly to collect my newfound interests, which I took home for real-life testing. Always a sucker for new products, my husband was also excited by this constant stream of fresh finds. Each morning there was a deliberation and bathroom discussion on what was going to be tested that day. The trial (or investigation) was always followed up by his curious expression and question post-test: What did I think? Overall, I found that my gut instinct almost always proved to be right—my initial reaction from merely smelling and applying a product was spot on. The products I tried in those early morning bathroom experiments were more often than not something that REALLY worked for me and I’ve since incorporated more than one new treasure into my daily routine. But, the awards aren’t just about my favorites or the favorites of the editorial team, but rather, these are the products that have been through a rigorous screening process, the ones that have been voted on by readers all over the country, and then to top it off, tested by our well-revered board of experts, a team whose frank honesty was enlightening. So, I implore you as you travel on your beauty quest to go with your gut—find a product on these pages that speaks to you and try it. You’ll know right away if you’ve found true love.

Thousands of products. Months of testing. Expert vetting. And you, the readers, voting. Here’s what made this year’s coveted awards list.

SUNNING Sipping

SMOOCHING Smiling

When all your living starts lining up

start Silking Restylane® Silk smoothes those living lines around your mouth, for lips that reveal only what you want them to. It’s the end of the line for lips.

See Anne before and after Silking at RestylaneSilk.com/LivingLines

Important Safety Information Indication: Restylane® Silk is indicated for submucosal implantation for lip augmentation and dermal implantation for correction of perioral rhytids in patients over the age of 21. Restylane Silk contains traces of gram-positive bacterial protein and is contraindicated for patients with allergies to such material or for patients with severe allergies that have required in-hospital treatment. Restylane Silk should not be used by patients with bleeding disorders, with hypersensitivity to amide-type local anesthetics, such as lidocaine, under the age of 22, or by women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Restylane Silk should not be injected anywhere except the dermis or lip submucosa. Use of Restylane Silk at the site of skin sores, pimples, rashes, hives, cysts, or infection should be postponed until healing is complete. The most commonly observed side effects are swelling, tenderness, bruising, pain, and redness at the injection site. These are typically mild in severity and resolve in 2-7 days after treatment. Serious but rare side effects include delayed onset infections, recurrence of herpetic eruptions, and superficial necrosis and scarring at the injection site. Do not implant into blood vessels. Use with caution in patients recently treated with anticoagulant or platelet inhibitors to avoid bleeding and bruising. Treatment volume should be limited to 1.5 mL per lip per treatment and 1.0 mL for perioral rhytid correction, as greater amounts significantly increase moderate and severe injection site reactions. The safety or effectiveness of treatment in areas other than lips and perioral rhytids has not been established in controlled clinical studies. Restylane Silk is only available through a licensed practitioner. Complete Instructions for Use are available at www.RestylaneSilk.com. All trademarks are the property of their respective owners. © 2015 Galderma Laboratories, L.P. MP-RES-00120 11/15 Please see the Instructions for Use at RestylaneSilk.com or call 1-855-425-8722.

executive beauty editor ELISE MINTON

When I started my career as a beauty editor, one of the first things I ever got to try was filler under my eyes. Ever since I turned 20, the puffiness and hollows under my eyes bothered me terribly. I spared no expense on creams, serums and concealers that promised to miraculously get rid of the problem. At one point, I even contemplated surgery, thinking that was the only option on the planet that would make my under-eye area smooth and puff-free. Turns out, I, like so many other women out there, was wrong. Surgery wasn’t what I needed. A little bit of volume did the trick! Sometimes, it’s not what we think we need, but rather a completely different procedure that’s really the solution to our problems. Read more on page 136.

FROM A CLEANSER WITH THE MOST UNIQUE TEXTURE, TO A NEW WAY TO TREAT HYPERPIGMENTATION AND A GUITAR PICK LOOK-ALIKE THAT’S CRUCIAL FOR FLAWLESS MAKEUP, THIS IS WHAT’S BIG IN MY WORLD OF BEAUTY.

WHAT’S ON MY

radar...

SHOULD YOU SHOCK YOUR SKIN? Treatments that brighten skin and reduce pigment are a mainstay in every doctor’s toolbox. While standby treatments like peels, lasers and microneedling aren’t going anywhere, some dermatologists are taking these procedures to the next level to “shock” the skin and get even better results. According to New York dermatologist Julie Russak, MD, who has been using the technique, skin can become accustomed to or not respond the same when the same treatment is used over and over.

3 N E W P RO D U CTS YO U H AV E TO T RY

Glossier Milky Jelly Cleanser, $18, glossier.com On days when my skin is extra reactive and sensitive, I reach for this gel cleanser that leaves my skin perfectly balanced and conditioned. As the name suggests, it feels and looks like jelly, which is totally cool and not the norm, and it never makes my face feel tight, dry or itchy.

La Prairie Cellular Radiance Perfecting Fluide Pure Gold, $525, laprairie.com Luxury and La Prairie go hand in hand, and its newest cream is nothing short of pure indulgence. I like to use the product unconventionally by dotting it along my cheekbones for an illuminating effect because it contains gold powder and reflective pigments that revitalize skin and give it a luminous glow.

beautyblender liner.designer, $16, beautyblender.com

“In order to not plateau, I interject different modalities to stimulate new forms of repair,” she says. In doing so, the skin is “surprised” when it’s treated with something unexpected and has to heal differently in order to maintain results. “For example, if a patient is really liking the results of microneedling, we will change it up and do a session with platelet-rich plasma, a peel or a different laser depth. Addressing pigment with different technologies forces the skin to repair differently each time.”

I have a love-hate relationship with eyeliner. I love how it looks, but hate that it takes me a hundred tries to get a semi-decent cat’s-eye or winged look. Within seconds of trying this tool—it acts like a guide so you always get a seamless line or flick—I oohed and aahed at how easy it was to get perfectly lined eyes.

In the world of beauty, there is a constant desire to remain on the cutting-edge by discovering new products, techniques and medical breakthroughs that propel us forward.

Safety First

Of course, while we are always on the search for the newest, most effective advancements that will make our lives better, safety should always remain at the forefront. Something can only be a true “medical game changer” if it’s been researched, tested and scrutinized by the ethical, scientifically based industry leaders—those specialists in the field who are trained doctors with the skills and experience to evaluate the latest technologies and determine how to accurately

Combination Approach

As techniques and procedures continue to change and evolve, what we’ve seen throughout each specialization (both in plastic surgery and dermatology, as it relates to the face and the body) is a combination approach. Many aesthetic doctors are addressing their patients’ cosmetic concerns and goals by employing multiple modalities and combining tried-and-true surgical procedures with nonsurgical treatments to deliver optimal results.

Informed Decisions

Today’s cosmetic patient has more options than ever before, but the choice to select a doctor who has the appropriate credentials is just as important as ever. Safe and appropriate

In the world of beauty, there are teas for your every concern—one to make you lose weight, one to detox, one to give you clear skin and one to ward off the effects of aging. Now, there are facial teas, which work by steeping loose tea in hot water and then placing your face over the bowl so the steam can work its magic on your skin. Annie Tevelin, founder of SkinOwl, says facial teas are trending as women are shifting from more of a rushed beauty routine to one that is more ritualized. Facial teas help correct dull, dry, congested, fatigued and aging skin thanks to the good-foryour-skin herbs—rose hip, calendula, chamomile and rosemary—that are antiinflammatory, calming and energizing. “These teas offer a regenerative aromatherapy experience, as well as a skin treatment.”

Beauty products have always been about the right mix of ingredients to create that perfect formula. While a majority of products still follow this rule of thumb, expect to see

some brands incorporating a less-is-more strategy because there’s now a movement toward extreme purity and using just a single ingredient in a product. Case in point: Khloris Botanical Rose Water, which contains only rose water, and RMS Beauty “un” Powder,

which consists solely of pure silica. Smithtown, NY, dermatologist Marina Peredo, MD, says, “The

more ingredients a product has in it, the harder it is to determine which ingredient you are allergic to. Products with just one ingredient have a role in skin care, especially for those with (and without) allergies and sensitivities. But, you may need to use multiple products so that your skin can benefit from all the necessary nutrients and vitamins it needs on a daily basis to be healthy.”

All of that is changing as smaller molecules are being formulated, putting hyaluronic acid back into the spotlight. “In the past, most topical hyaluronic acid products contained the ingredient in a high molecular weight.

Look for shades like magenta, dusty rose and pinky-nude, as seen in the Dolce & Gabbana Dolce Rosa Matte Lipstick collection and the Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Lipstick line. When wearing a pink statement lip, McCulloch suggests keeping the rest of your skin clean and opting for a bit of highlighter, a glowy cheek, soft eye shadow and a kitten flick of liquid eyeliner.

THE FORMULA FOR

YO U N G E R - L O O K I N G S K I N Naturally found within skin, hyaluronic acid (HA) acts as the body’s natural hydrator and keeps skin plump, firm and youthful. During the aging process, hyaluronic acid production decreases, leaving skin dry, dull and wrinkled. The answer? HA 5: A New Generation in Skin Hydration.

DID YOU KNOW? Between the ages of 40 to 50, skin loses nearly 50% of the hyaluronic acid it had at the age of 20.

THE SOLUTION

FIVE TYPES OF HA Five different forms of hyaluronic acid—Time Release HA, Sodium Hyaluronate and Uncross-Linked HA combined with Nano HA and Cross-Linked HA—work synergistically to provide immediate smoothing and continuous hydration throughout the day.

VITISENSCE™ This powerhouse ingredient blend harnesses the strength of peptides, sugar complexes and Vitis flower stem cell extract to support HA levels during the aging process. This multitasking must-have provides long-term support to the skin’s ability to retain hydration from the inside out.

EXPERT INSIGHT “ Many patients are surprised to learn there’s a difference between moisturization and hydration. Moisturization is the process of skin feeling hydrated, while hydration increases the water level in skin, and it’s the addition of water that helps to combat signs of aging.” - Dermatologist, Sabrina Fabi, M.D.

E N H A5 N C E YO U R S K I N ’ S A P P E A R A N C E + O V E R A L L H E A LT H Incorporating HA 5 into your daily beauty regimen also complements dermal filler and injectable treatments and helps smooth fine lines between each office visit. Ask your physician about HA 5 today.

INVISIBLE GLAMOUR

You may be familiar with color-correcting makeup, which are creams, liquids and sticks that come in pale shades of lavender, yellow, orange and green. While it sort of flew under the radar throughout the last few years, new formulas and ingredients have breathed life back into the category, making

Different from the “no makeup” makeup look, celebrity makeup artist Trish McEvoy says this look spotlights features you want to bring out. “‘No makeup’ makeup is about enhancing your skin without defining your features; here, you are defining your features and emphasizing them.” She recommends dotting gel liner pencil between your lashes to make them look fuller, and using fine brow pencils to mimic the look of real hair and tinted lipenhancing balms to mirror a younger-looking mouth.

THE MUST-HAVE MAKEUP TRENDS

Color is big right now, and it’s all about using pops

of bright, bold shades on your lips, nails and eyes. Here’s what else is popular on the makeup scene.

T H E N EW WAY T O G ET B I G , B E AU T I F U L B ROW S

Brow styles come and go, but right now it’s all about a feathered appearance. According to Tammy Fisher, brow expert at Boom Boom Brow Bar

in New York, the feathered brow is a softer, more feminine and natural look because the brows aren’t too arched or styled and the ends are not bluntly cut. “For a while, it was all about a really overstyled arch. By following the natural arch of the brow and allowing the ends to taper naturally, you get more of a chunky, blocky look, like what you see on Sofia Vergara—that’s

4 6 / N E W B E A U T Y / Spring • Summer 2016 / newbeauty.com

beautiful,” says Fisher. To get the look, you’ll need to let your brows grow in until they are on the fuller side (which can take four to six weeks) and then have them professionally shaped. The biggest things to keep in mind, adds Fisher, are that the ends of your brows should never be cut blunt, but rather kept soft, and the natural shape of your brows should always be played up.

big again—Algenist developed the Reveal Color Correcting collection and Yves Saint Laurent launched Touche Éclat Neturalizers. Frederic Stoeckel, general manager of Algenist, says this time around, color-correcting makeup is different, particularly in terms of actives. “Microalgae, one of the most effective antiaging ingredients, survives in harsh environments by harnessing energy from the sun and adapting by changing color,” says Stoeckel. “By using the true colors from algae, like blue, red, gold and green, we can camouflage skin imperfections and deliver anti-aging benefits, too.” Besides more pigmented colors, color-correcting makeup is now being applied differently, too. While you can still apply them just where needed, you can also apply them similarly to contouring makeup by blending them together for a seamless look.

MODERN MANIS

The French manicure is making a comeback, but this time it comes with a twist. “The French manicure has always been a ‘two-tone manicure,’ but now we are seeing it done in a new way,” says Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, cofounder and artistic director of OPI. “Instead of using the typical pink and white colors, we are experimenting with new and exciting colors— darker shades on just the edge and using color on both parts of the nail. Utilizing the negative space (nails done without base color), has caught on.”

HOW TO GET THE LOOK

Apply a heat-protecting spray, like Davines BlowDry Primer, on wet hair from mid-lengths to ends. Then use a volumizer on your roots. Create a deep side-part and blow-dry 1-inch sections starting at the top with a mid-size round bristle brush. $34, davines.com

“Once each section is dry yet still hot, quickly roll it into a mid-size Velcro hot roller,” says Giannandrea. “Use small clips to secure it and allow it to cool. Continue until all hair is secured. Let it cool in the rollers for 20–25 minutes, which will create volume.”

Gently let the rollers out and lightly brush your hair with a boar bristle paddle brush. Make sure to brush back on the side behind your ear and upward and outward to the other side. Finish with flexible hairspray to maintain the volume and movement.

HOW TO GET THE LOOK

Start by applying a volumizer to towel-dried hair. Try amika The Perfect Body Whipped Mousse, which leaves hair looking bouncy and full without a stiff, crunchy feel. Next, create a deep side-part and blow-dry with a round brush. $24, sephora.com

“Once your hair is completely dry, curl the back section with a wave-creating curling iron to give yourself Old Hollywood–inspired waves,” says Redway. Then, use your fingers to gently loosen the waves, which gives a natural and effortless look.

Create a small braid behind each ear and secure with a clear elastic. Next, criss cross them across the back of your head and tuck the ends in with bobby pins as you go. Finish with flexible hairspray and a touch of shine oil for a luminous look like Olivia’s.

Dysport is a prescription injection for temporary improvement in the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults less than 65 years of age. Important Safety Information What is the most important information you should know about Dysport? Spread of Toxin Effects: In some cases, the effects of Dysport and all botulinum toxin products may affect areas of the body away from the injection site. These effects can cause symptoms of a serious condition called botulism. Symptoms of botulism can happen hours to weeks after injection and may include swallowing and breathing problems, loss of strength and muscle weakness all over the body, double vision, blurred vision and drooping eyelids, hoarseness or change or loss of voice, trouble saying words clearly, or loss of bladder control. Swallowing and breathing problems can be life threatening and there have been reports of death. The risk of symptoms is probably greatest in children and adults treated for muscle spasms, particularly in those patients who have underlying medical conditions that could make these symptoms more likely. The toxic effects have been reported at doses similar to those used to treat muscle spasms in the neck. Lower doses, in both approved and unapproved uses, have also caused toxic effects. This includes treatment of children and adults for muscle spasms. These effects could make it unsafe for you to drive a car, operate machinery, or do other dangerous activities. Do not have Dysport treatment if you: are allergic to Dysport or any of its ingredients (see the end of the Medication Guide for a list of ingredients), are allergic to cow’s milk protein, had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin product, such as Myobloc® or Botox®, or have a skin infection at the planned injection site. The dose of Dysport is not the same as the dose of any other botulinum toxin product. The dose of Dysport cannot be compared to the dose of any other botulinum toxin product you may have used. Dysport may not be right for you if: you have surgical changes to your face, very weak muscles in the treatment area, your face looks very different from side to side, the injection site is inflamed, you have droopy eyelids or sagging eyelid folds, deep facial scars, thick oily skin, or if your wrinkles can’t be smoothed by spreading them apart. Tell your doctor about all your medical conditions, including if you have: a disease that affects your muscles and nerves (such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease], myasthenia gravis, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome), allergies to any botulinum toxin product or had any side effect from any botulinum toxin product in the past, a breathing problem (such as asthma or emphysema), swallowing problems, bleeding problems, diabetes, or a slow heart beat or other problem with your heart rate or rhythm, plans to have surgery, had surgery on your face, weakness of your forehead muscles (such as trouble raising your eyebrows), drooping eyelids, or any other change in the way your face normally looks. Patients with a disease that affects muscles and nerves who are treated with typical doses of Dysport may have a higher risk of serious side effects, including severe swallowing and breathing problems. Human Albumin This product contains albumin taken from human plasma. Steps taken during donor screening and product manufacturing processes make the risk of spreading viral diseases extremely rare. In theory, there is also an extremely rare risk of contracting Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). No cases of spread of viral diseases or CJD have ever been reported for albumin. Allergic Reaction to Injecting in the Skin It is not known if an allergic reaction can be caused by injecting Dysport into the skin. The safety of treating excessive sweating with Dysport is not known.

Common Side Effects The most common side effects are nose and throat irritation, headache, injection site pain, injection site skin reaction, upper respiratory tract infection, eyelid swelling, eyelid drooping, sinus inflammation, and nausea. Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins and herbal and other natural products. Using Dysport with certain other medicines may cause serious side effects. Do not start any new medicines while taking Dysport without talking to your doctor first. Especially tell your doctor if you: have received any other botulinum toxin product in the last four months, have received injections of botulinum toxin, such as Myobloc® (rimabotulinumtoxinB) or Botox® (onabotulinumtoxinA) in the past (be sure your doctor knows exactly which product you received), have recently received an antibiotic by injection, take muscle relaxants, take an allergy or cold medicine, or take a sleep medicine. Use in Specific Populations Dysport should not be used in children or in women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Ask your doctor if Dysport is right for you. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088. Please see Dysport Full Prescribing Information including Medication Guide.

Brief Summary of Important Product Information

DYSPORT® (abobotulinumtoxinA) for Injection What is ǇƐƉŽƌƚ? - Dysport is a prescription injection for temporary improvement in the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults less than 65 years of age. INFORMATION SUMMARY FOR DYSPORT WARNING: DISTANT SPREAD OF TOXIN EFFECT Postmarketing reports indicate that the effects of ǇƐƉŽƌƚ and all botulinum toxin products may spread from the area of injection to produce symptoms consistent with botulinum toxin effects. These may include asthenia, generalized muscle weakness, diplopia, blurred vision, ptosis, dysphagia, dysphonia, dysarthria, urinary incontinence and breathing difficulties. These symptoms have been reported hours to weeks after injection. Swallowing and breathing difficulties can be life threatening and there have been reports of death. The risk of symptoms is probably greatest in children treated for spasticity but symptoms can also occur in adults treated for spasticity and other conditions, particularly in those patients who have underlying conditions that would predispose them to these symptoms. In unapproved uses, including spasticity in children and adults, and in approved indications, cases of spread of effect have been reported at doses comparable to those used to treat cervical dystonia and at lower doses. WHEN SHOULD I NOT TAKE z^WKZd? Do not take ǇƐƉŽƌƚ if you: x Are allergic to Dysport or any of its ingredients (see the end of the Medication Guide for a list of ingredients) or have had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin product, such as Myobloc® or Botox®. x ᣝᣝᣝAre allergic to cow’s milk protein. xᣝᣝᣝ Have a skin infection at the planned injection site. x ᣝᣝᣝAre under the age of 18 or are a woman who is pregnant or breastfeeding.

Tell your doctor about all of your medical conditions, especially if you have a disease that affects muscles and nerves (such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease], myasthenia gravis, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome), allergies to any botulinum toxin product or had any side effect from any botulinum toxin product in the past, a breathing problem (such as asthma or emphysema), swallowing

problems, bleeding problems, diabetes, or a slow heart beat or other problem with your heart rate or rhythm, plans to have surgery, had surgery on your face, weakness of your forehead muscles (such as trouble raising your eyebrows), drooping eyelids, or any other change in the way your face normally looks. Patients with a disease that affects muscles and nerves who are treated with typical doses of ǇƐƉŽƌƚ may have a higher risk of serious side effects, including severe swallowing and breathing problems.

“Jen often travels for film and TV shoots, so I give her a 90-minute custom facial with a glycolic acid treatment and pearl-silk masks at least once a month to keep her skin balanced and healthy,” says Nerida Joy, celebrity aesthetician and the star’s facialist of 18 years. “She prefers the natural look in everyday life, so sunblock application is one of the most important parts of her skin-care regimen.”

“What I like about this makeup is that it’s soft, but with an emphasis on the eyes, which makes it understated but classic,” says celebrity makeup artist Genevieve Herr, who created the look. “I defined Jen’s eyes by keeping the eyeliner close to her lashes and then smudging around them to create a smoky effect. I kept the rest of her makeup soft and natural with a nude lip that complemented her skin tone.”

STAINED TEETH

smile

Not only are stained teeth unsightly, but they can also affect your self-esteem. “Stains and discoloration are caused by poor dental hygiene, medications that affect enamel and dentin, smoking, and dark foods and drinks like coffee, wine, tea, berries, chocolate or red meat,” says New York cosmetic dentist Irwin Smigel, DDS. Make the choice to brighten discolored teeth, and once you’re happy with the results, maintain them with at-home care.

5 WAYS TO FIX STAINED TEETH

ISTOCK

MAKE THE CHOICE TO BRIGHTEN DISCOLORED TEETH, AND ONCE YOU’RE HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS, MAINTAIN THEM WITH AT-HOME CARE.

If the cause is plaque, apples can help clean teeth and remove stain-producing substances.

If the cause is what you eat and drink, brush with activated charcoal to brighten teeth.

If the cause is smoking, use a whitening gel to erase stains from nicotine and tar.

If the cause is age-related discoloration, at-home whitening tools can restore a youthful smile.

If the cause is medication, professional whitening or veneers provide stunning results.

Apples can remove bacteria trapped on and in between your teeth while scrubbing away surface stains. Their rough, fiber-rich skin makes them ideal for cleansing, while malic acid, a chemical used in teeth-whitening products, helps dissolve stains. While natural stain-removers can help, “Brushing, flossing and regular cleanings will keep stains at bay,” says New York cosmetic dentist Mojgan Fajiram, DDS.

“Food is the number-one culprit for staining. Anything that will stain a white shirt can stain teeth,” says Boulder, CO, cosmetic dentist Lori Kemmet, DDS. Brushing with activated charcoal, like inVitamin Activated Charcoal Tooth and Gum Powder, can brighten teeth. The powder’s adhesiveness allows it to bind to surface stains and lift them off. No need to worry about taste either; this one is spearmint flavor. $9, invitamin.com

Yellow or brown tobacco stains tend to affect the outer layer of teeth, but don’t penetrate the underlying layer of dentin. Treat your teeth with a mild peroxide gel, like Sno32 P4 Daily Whitening Maintenance Gel, to target discolored enamel. Unlike other whitening products, this one won’t irritate your gums and is easy to incorporate into your daily routine—just add it on top of your toothpaste. $30, 32oralcare.com

As we age, the enamel of our teeth begins to wear down, leaving our teeth more translucent and revealing the porous yellow tissue under the enamel. At-home whitening tools, like Apa Beauty Apa White Duo, reverse discoloration for a brighter smile. The whitening pen and strip duo rely on supercharged ingredients like carbamide peroxide to visibly whiten teeth in less than one week. $150, apabeauty.com

Excessive use of fluoride or medications that contain tetracycline can cause dark enamel bands that are hard to lighten; in-office whitening or veneers can help brighten teeth drastically. Professional whitening treatments use a light to activate a special gel that penetrates the enamel, or veneers (thin porcelain shells) placed over natural teeth to cover stains. “This patient (shown above) chose veneers for a whiter, brighter smile,” says Dr. Fajiram.

DO YOU REALLY NEED A

TONER?

Toners are a long-standing beauty staple.

For hundreds of years, herbs and oils have been mixed together and used as toners. But, now a debate exists if they are necessary or not. We went to the experts to get the story on whether you should load up or ditch them altogether.

76 / N E W B E A U T Y / Spring • Summer 2016 / newbeauty.com

Designed to be applied after cleansing but before serums, moisturizers and creams, toners employ ingredients that remove dead skin and lingering makeup and dirt and prep skin for other products to be absorbed properly. “The right toner will refresh and hydrate your skin, balance its pH levels, fight aging and contribute to an overall clearer complexion, all without stripping it,” says Indie Lee, founder of the eponymous skin-care line. Besides leaving skin feeling fresh, Lee adds that toners are a vital step in your routine. “Toners are just as important as your moisturizer and serum in achieving healthy, clear, youthful, hydrated skin.”

Some toners contain alcohol or stripping agents, which can cause skin to become dry. Spring House, PA, dermatologist Margo Weishar, MD, who isn’t a fan of toners, says they originated years ago when it was big to follow the cleanse, tone and moisturize program. You need to know which ingredients are in a toner and if they will benefit your skin or irritate it— steer clear of alcohol (it isn’t in all toners), witch hazel, fragrance and anything that acts as an astringent. Montclair, NJ, dermatologist Jeanine Downie, MD, who isn’t crazy about toners either, suggests they only be used during summer months as opposed to year-round.

The Bottom Line: Using a toner won’t hurt your skin (unless it contains harsh or stripping ingredients), but if it doesn’t contain ingredients that work for your skin, you may not reap the benefits. To find the right one, read the ingredient label and look for water-based products.

WHAT REALLY HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET

BOTOX?

IT MAY BE A MIRACLE IN A BOTTLE AND THE ULTIMATE WRINKLE ERASER, BUT DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON WHEN A SINGLE DOSE OF ANY NEUROMODULATOR (BOTOX, DYSPORT OR XEOMIN) GETS INJECTED? Photograph by THE VOORHES

newbeauty.com / Spring • Summer 2016 / N E W B E A U T Y / 7 9

truth.

HOW

INJECTABLES WORK

Neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport and Xeomin) temporarily inhibit the nerves that signal certain muscles to contract. Once these muscles are weakened, they can’t make the movements that cause lines and wrinkles (you can still make facial expressions, but they may not be as exaggerated). After a few months, the muscles regain activity, the line-smoothing effects begin to diminish and the treatment needs to be repeated. Make sure to always see the bottle, which should have a hologram on it, to verify that counterfeit products aren’t being used.

Small bumps appear, but they only last for a few minutes.

The toxin causes your muscles to temporarily freeze up.

Your skin becomes much smoother.

It stops future wrinkles from forming.

Pea-size bumps (or smaller) tend to pop up right after an injection—literally seconds later—but no need to worry, they’ll disappear. New York plastic surgeon Z. Paul Lorenc, MD, explains that these bumps are actually fluid (saline) that’s used to dilute the material because neuromodulators come as a powder. Once the fluid is absorbed by the skin, which can take from a few minutes to half an hour, the bumps will diminish.

Any time a neuromodulator is injected, the nerves that create muscle movements are blocked. “Botox does not directly treat the wrinkle. It reduces muscle activity so that the wrinkle is no longer creased and reformed,” says Las Vegas plastic surgeon Mary Herte, MD. “When the muscle activity causing the folding stops, the body can start repairing these wrinkles. Over time, they subside.” According to Dr. Lorenc, the effects of Botox go to work within one minute, but it can take a few days to see full results. “Once the nerves are blocked, they disappear and later regenerate when muscle activity returns.”

One effect of all neuromodulators is smoother skin, especially on the forehead. The reason for it is a reduced amount of muscle activity, which leads to skin that’s more pliable because the underlying muscles have been temporarily put to rest. New York dermatologist Hooman Khorasani, MD, says, “When muscle tone is reduced, there is less of a folding of the skin on top of the muscle, which makes lines less noticeable.”

While some doctors don’t feel that it’s necessary to inject neuromodulators before lines and wrinkles are evident, others feel using them proactively can prevent the formation of lines and wrinkles so that they never surface. “Botox is a great basic essential treatment for expression lines, but only for the ones that are there when you are moving your face and contracting your muscles,” says Dr. Herte. “If Botox is started before the lines become etched in, and persist even when your face is quiet and at rest, you will be preventing the wear that causes the lines to form in the first place.”

The results will start to wear off in three months and you’ll need to do it again.

But, the more often you do it, the less you’ll need.

Neuromodulators aren’t permanent—you can expect wrinkle-free skin for three to four months. To maintain the results, you need to keep up with the treatment. The chemical reaction that bonds Botox to muscle cells is permanent, but new nerves sprout connections to the muscle so communication resumes after a few months. “Once that muscle regains activity, any lines that were originally there will start to come back,” says Dr. Herte. While the skin will revert back to baseline, Dr. Khorasani says there’s a misconception that the lines will be worse than they were when you started.

Dr. Lorenc says that the more frequently you get injections (and we’re not talking about abusing them or getting injected more often than what’s really necessary), the less product you’ll need over time. That’s because your muscles tend to have a longer response as product is used more often. And, over time, the muscles have been weakened and aren’t as active, so the amount of product necessary to smooth out lines and wrinkles starts to decrease.

THE MAGIC OF BOTOX

Oftentimes, a single treatment using any type of neuromodulator is usually all it takes to see the wrinkle-reducing effects and become a believer that it works.

The major area of concern was wrinkles and furrows between the eyebrows, which develop from repeated muscle movements.

Greenwich, CT, dermatologist Mitchell Ross, MD, injected Botox between this patient’s eyebrows to soften out lines and wrinkles.

Deep lines and wrinkles around the eye area were the biggest complaint with this patient—an easy fix for neuromodulators.

Smithtown, NY, dermatologist Marina Peredo, MD, treated her crow’s-feet with Botox, which smoothed the skin.

Strange Things That Can Happen Just because neuromodulators are widely available, doesn’t mean you should let just anyone inject you. When put into the wrong hands and used incorrectly, a neuromodulator can “turn on you” and make you look frozen or distorted (or have more serious side effects). Always see the bottle to make sure it’s an FDA-approved product. For more information, visit expertinjector.org.

When a neuromodulator is overused or injected

the evolution of wrinkle erasers When neuromodulators were first introduced, they were used as more of an off-label, stand-alone beauty treatment. Today, doctors use them in combination with medical-grade skin care, fillers, lasers, and even surgery, to get the best results.

MYTH

If you get red, you have sensitive skin. According to New York aesthetician Cecilia Wong, normal skin types experience dryness, redness, inflammation and breakouts—the difference is that it occurs on an inconsistent basis. “This is not due to skin sensitivity, but rather a reaction to allergies or from using the wrong skin-care products,” she says. “Skin that becomes easily dry, red, itchy or inflamed is classified as sensitive—the key word being ‘easily.’ A telltale reaction for sensitive skin is a burning or stinging sensation when exposed to products, food, stress or the environment.” MYTH

Rosacea is rare. If your skin is consistently intolerant (typically defined by redness and inflammation), it might be a bigger predisposition. “So many patients who think they have ‘sensitive skin’ actually have eczema or rosacea,” says Norwalk, CT, dermatologist Deanne Mraz Robinson, MD. The surprising stat: The National Rosacea Society estimates 16 million Americans have it.

DO YOU REALLY HAVE

SENSITIVE SKIN?

When it comes to skin-type classification, “sensitive” is checked off time and time again. So is it really that common—or is it time to re-categorize your condition? MYTH

“In both of these conditions, skin can be intolerant of products. In the case of eczema, it can cause an itchy, uncomfortable or swollen rash; with rosacea, you may experience stinging, sensitivity, flushing and redness and breakouts,” she adds. Because the signs and symptoms of rosacea vary from person to person, the treatment must be tailored, and it’s best to consult with a boardcertified dermatologist to correctly diagnose it.

If you find yourself “working through” irritation, you probably have sensitive skin. It’s a common skin-care woe when experimenting with new products: That touch-and-go period where you try something new and see that your skin isn’t responding right away—or that it’s responding reactively. “People think they can

work through the irritation and continue with the product, which can result in serious swelling and redness or a thickened and scaly rash,” says Dr. Mraz Robinson. “I’ve been seeing it more and more when patients use homeopathic or other home treatments such as pure garlic or apple cider vinegar on their skin. It doesn’t mean you have sensitive skin, but rather that you have an irritation to chemicals or substances that are too strong for anyone’s skin, and it’s really not a good idea to be using them.”

THE BIGGEST MYTH!

If it says it’s good for sensitive skin types, it’s going to be gentle. Not all sensitive skin products are suitable for all sensitive skin types. “If you truly have sensitive skin, it’s worth researching ingredients and not just going by what it says on the label,” Wong says. “I recommend avoiding ingredients like alcohol, fragrances, betahydroxy acids, parabens, retinoids, lanolin, and formaldehyde, all of which I see listed on products that claim to be ‘good for sensitive skin.’” Before starting with a new product, do a patch test on your forearm at least 24 hours before using. MYTH

Fragrance-free and unscented products are the same. These two descriptors sound synonymous, but can be the catalyst behind irritation. “I always tell my patients with sensitive skin to use color- and fragrance-free products because trace amounts of colors and fragrances can be irritating to sensitive skin,” Dr. Mraz Robinson says. “Look for fragrancefree instead of unscented, as unscented products can have masking fragrances to create the non-scent.”

Turns out this kind of discoloration is more common than you think. Here’s why. W H Y I T’S H A P P E N I N G 1

Your skin is irritated from shaving and using deodorant.

Shaving with a razor blade and/or using deodorants that contain certain ingredients, like alcohol or fragrance, can be extremely irritating to skin. “When skin is irritated, an inflammatory reaction ensues, which stimulates pigment-making cells (melanocytes) to generate more pigment, causing the skin to become darker,” says Baton Rouge, LA, dermatologist Ann Zedlitz, MD. “We call this discoloration PIH, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.”

It’s a sign of early diabetes or insulin resistance.

Darkened armpits can also be the result of a medical condition called acanthosis nigricans, which affects skin pigment and is often related to insulin resistance and diabetes. “The abnormal metabolism of those with diabetes or pre-diabetes may trigger a thickening of the skin and a consequent darkening effect,” says Alpharetta, GA, dermatologist Chynna Steele, MD. “We see it most in the neck, armpits and groin.”

Apply a skinlightening product.

For minor cases of discoloration, products with ingredients that work to lighten dark areas on your armpits (the same way they do on your face), such as kojic acid, hydroquinone (4–12 percent), licorice root extract and some forms of vitamin C, can help. “These ingredients block the production of melanin from different angles,” says Dr. Zedlitz.

VMV Hypoallergenics Essence Skin-Saving Antiperspirant, $20, vmvhypoallergenics.com

Swap out your deodorant.

Some deodorants may contain ingredients like alcohol, fragrance and antiperspirants such as aluminum chloride that cause irritation, which can lead to discoloration. “If a product makes your skin itch, sting or burn, you should switch to something for sensitive skin and formulated without those ingredients,” says Dr. Steele. Some deodorants even deliver skin-lightening benefits with continued use.

Visit a dermatologist.

If the problem persists and you’re finding that your skin isn’t lightening up enough, make an appointment with a dermatologist who can suggest more powerful in-office treatments. “Microneedling with kojic acid may help because it delivers the acid deeper into the skin. Typically, three treatments spread out over six weeks are needed to see results,” says Dr. Zedlitz. “A light chemical peel with 10 percent salicylic acid is another good option.”

To avoid the inflammation brought on by shaving, Dr. Steele recommends laser hair removal. “The less friction the better. Laser hair removal minimizes friction to the area, and you don’t have to do it as often.” But, if you must shave, always use shaving cream. “This will reduce the irritation to your skin and make discoloration less likely or severe.”

Easy-to-Use Product for the Makeup Challenged

—

Smashbox Cosmetics #SHAPEMATTERS Palette, $55, sephora.com

What it is: A three-in-one contouring palette that lets you hone in on creating perfect eyes and brows and flawlessly contoured features thanks to 16 different shades, a dual-sided brush and step-bystep instructions on how to get your favorite looks. How to use it: For the makeup-advanced, you can mix and match the shadows and formulas together to create the perfect look. But, for those who need more help, hold the enclosed cards up to your smartphone and scan them in to get customized how-tos for creating a look that complements your specific features.

—

bliss fabulous makeup melt gel-to-oil cleanser, $28, ulta.com What it is: A texture-changing thick gel (almost balm-like) cleanser that doubles as a makeup remover without stripping your skin of moisture. How to use it: Gently massage onto dry skin (this is superimportant, otherwise the cleanser won’t bind properly) until the gel turns into oil. Then, rinse with water until your skin is clean and the water runs clear.

Why it’s so innovative: We’ve seen plenty of palettes and contouring kits before, but none have taken individuality into the equation quite like this one. Perfect colors and formulations aside, it’s the interactive how-to cards—they identify the shape of your facial features in order to give you the most flattering makeup tutorials—that make this palette stand out from the pack. Even better: You can save the customized charts to your phone for reference.

What the expert says: “All the makeup in this palette is great and can easily take you from day to night. It’s practical and saves a ton of room, making it perfect for traveling. Smashbox nailed the color selections, too,” says Sarah Tanno, celebrity makeup artist.

The Cleanser With the Coolest Formulation

Hair Tool That Cuts Your Drying Time in Half

—

CHI Touch 2 Touch Screen Hair Dryer, $199, ulta.com What it is: An of-the-moment hair-dryer that allows you to control the speed, temperature and amount of ions delivered to your hair, which speeds up drying time, with the touch of a button. How to use it: Lightweight, sleek and easy to use, just adjust the digital controls to intensify (or lessen) your settings for a totally customized blowout. Everything sits front and center on the touchscreen panel that you can control by simply sliding the dials with your finger. Added bonus: The back of the dryer is flat so you can set it down and use it hands-free. What it’s so innovative: Typically, hair-dryers don’t offer any extra bells and whistles—what you see is what you get. This one lets you fine-tune just about everything using a color-gauged display screen so you can set the exact temperature and speed you want for hair that’s shiny and full of bounce.

Why it’s so innovative: The majority of cleansers morph from a liquid into a frothy mix of bubbles, but this one is different: It changes from a gel formulation into a lightweight cleansing oil. The gel texture is said to remove makeup, dirt and oil while the oil texture balances your skin and leaves it feeling soft and refreshed. Packed with a blend of seven different essential oils, this heavy-duty cleanser really removes every last trace of impurities and makeup (even long-lasting and waterproof types). Bottom line: Your makeup literally melts off of your skin and all you’re left with is a complexion that feels and amazingly soft and clean.

Hair Loss Fighter of the Future

HairMax LaserBand 82, $895, hairmax.com What it is: A hands-free, headband-like, light-based laser device that stimulates healthy hair growth. How to use it: Taking just 90 seconds to complete a single cycle, this hair helper requires almost zero effort on your part. Just sit with the band on your head three times a week and let it do the work to grow hewalthier hair. Why it’s so innovative: Boasting 82 tiny medicalgrade lasers and proprietary comb teeth, which part your hair during the treatment for the best possible results, this device is unlike anything we’ve seen in the hair growth department. It’s fast and easy to use, and it really works. Plus, while some hair-loss fighters only target one part of the problem, this one revitalizes hair follicles, stimulates hair growth, reverses the hair thinning process and increases the density and fullness of each individual strand.

This patient had three Kybella treatments to reduce the excess fat under her chin.

Best New Indie Hair Product

—

R+Co Badlands Dry Shampoo Paste, $28, randco.com What it is: Part dry shampoo, part styling paste that refreshes hair while giving it texture and shape. How to use it: Rub a dime-size amount of the multipurpose product between your fingertips to warm it up and then spot-treat areas at your roots that are oily or need some added volume or texture. Why it’s so innovative: Most dry shampoos come as a spray or powder, but this paste version was designed to be used just where you need it for more precise application. Plus, it morphs from a hard paste into a powder and doesn’t leave behind any white residue. Counting the oil-busting and volumizing powers of volcanic ash among its unique features, this is the only dry shampoo paste of its kind, and that alone makes it pretty cool.

What the expert says: “This paste is multifunctional and instantly refreshes hair so you can achieve a fresh new style on strands that aren’t so clean. It has the perfect balance of oil absorbers so your hair doesn’t look or feel dried out,” says Ni’Kita Wilson, cosmetic chemist.

The Ultimate Fat-Fighting Injectable

—

Kybella, mykybella.com

What it is: An in-office injectable treatment that breaks up fat under the chin. How to use it: Available only at your doctor’s office, Kybella is injected into the fat under the chin, which destroys it. The treatment takes about 20 minutes to perform, and once the area has been treated, the fat cells can no longer store or accumulate fat there. Why it’s so innovative: In the past, the only way to get rid of fat under the chin was with surgery like liposuction, which removed the fat forever. Now, the introduction of Kybella gives a noninvasive option to those who want to get rid of fat without having to go under the knife. While you’ll need a few treatments and there may be some swelling or bruising for the first few days following the injections, the idea that fat can be destroyed with a single shot is quite remarkable.

What the expert says: “Kybella is unique because you get liposuction-like results without significant downtime. Patients are generally very pleased with the outcome,” says Dr. Jeanine Downie, dermatologist.

NAOMI ON THE BEAUTY SECRET TO HER SUCCESS

THE HARDWORKING ACTRESS is a regular on the big screen, one-half of a power couple and has that not-so-small side gig of being a face of L’Oréal Paris, yet she somehow manages to live a very low-key life, successfully staying away from the spotlight—and the superficial lens that celebrities are portrayed through. 1 1 2 / N E W B E A U T Y / Spring • Summer 2016 / newbeauty.com

“I try to drink tons of water, but I’m not that consistent with it. It’s kind of irritating because when I do, so much of my life is spent running to the restroom, but my skin looks so much better.”

“Liev and I aren’t fighting over the mirror, but we do both use the Clarisonic. I think it’s good to do a gentle exfoliation once a week.”

is majorly multitasking during this interview. The 47-year-old mom of two is in the middle of doing something most women deem as a big “to-do list” check-off: Getting her hair cut and colored. “I apologize if someone starts moving around and you can’t hear me,” she says. “I had to get this done today!” A few days prior she was equally as downto-earth, this time at a photo shoot in one of Manhattan’s most notoriously opulent hotels, The Plaza. With jaw-dropping views of Central Park, surrounded by a doting glam squad and the season’s latest runway designs, you can quickly peg the British-born, Australian-bred Watts as the laid-back one in the group. Her only request: If possible, she would like to finish on time to pick up her two children at school. Maybe that shouldn’t come as a surprise. To say that Watts is “in Hollywood,” and part of the celebrity culture, making regular appearances on the red carpet and doing the talk show circuit to promote her film projects is most certainly accurate, but her version of a paparazzi shot typically takes on a much more casual vibe—one that involves unassumingly strolling down the street with her two sons (eight-year-old Alexander and seven-year-old Samuel) and her partner of 10-plus years, Liev Schreiber. Together, the duo has consciously—and successfully— cultivated a life of normalcy for their family. Another thing that is incredibly refreshing: To hear Watts confess, like a lot of us, that she isn’t very good at doing her hair or makeup. “I love the two as a form of expression, but day to day, I’m pretty much makeup-free and in jeans, T-shirts and sweaters,” she admits. “I’m not even very good at actually doing my own hair or my makeup, and I’m one of those people who walks out the door with wet hair all the time.”

B E AU T Y I N S P I R AT I O N

“I find a lot of beauty inspiration in Australia, but for me, someone like Charlotte Rampling is inspiring. In my opinion, she is more beautiful than a supermodel.”

Her everyday beauty routine is pretty simple. “If anything, maybe I’ll put on some concealer, blush and mascara, but often not even that. My mother was not very good at giving beauty tips, but she was—and still is—a striking beauty. I was always very aware of her beauty, but I never felt as beautiful as her, or that I could ever be that beautiful.” An admission almost impossible to believe from someone who is frequently found at the top listings of the most beautiful women (and successful actresses) in the world. If you’ve gone to the movies in the past 20 years, you’d be hard-pressed not to have seen something she has starred in. Sometimes she plays complicated; sometimes she’s comedic, but the two-time Academy Award–nominated actress is always playing a drastically different character, delivering performances that are as varied as they are dead-on convincing. One of her secrets to success: Not getting Botox, which hasn’t always been an easy choice. “Personally, I feel for me it’s tough to do Botox—but it’s also tough not to! Sometimes, I think I need the help. Whatever anyone else chooses is fine with me, no judgment. Of course, I want to look the best I can, but I am playing characters that should match my age and the women and the material that I am interested in are usually going through something. I have to be able to live in my face and tell the story of the character I’ve taken on. But…I’ll never say never.”

05 IN-OFFICE GO-TO

“I am a big fan of the Triad Facial. It’s a little bit of microdermabrasion, followed by LED light therapy and a gentle peel. It’s noninvasive, but it really helps with restoring natural collagen and gives my skin radiance. It brings my skin back to life and lasts a good couple of weeks. It’s great before a red carpet or a photo shoot and there’s no downtime.”

#BeyondBeauty A CAMPAIGN WITH A CAUSE

One accomplishment Watts is incredibly proud of: Being a spokeswoman for L’Oréal Paris and its “Because You’re Worth It” message, specifically its recent #WorthSaying campaign. “I’m with a really good group of people and it’s a really good campaign. Beauty has a reputation of being superficial, but we buy into it. It’s a human instinct—we crave beauty. Even animals have it! I’ve noticed it with my kids. They respond to people differently based on what they look like. It really has an instant effect. I like to think that this campaign makes you think a little bit differently about that.”

MAKEUP TRICK

“I once had a makeup artist tell me to wear blush as high as possible, on my cheekbones. You almost want to apply it under your eyes. It’s a good trick; it really does make it look better, yet it looks natural.”

ZEN MODE

“I am absolutely obsessed with baths. I take one every other night. I don’t know how people can do without a bath— I can’t even stand it when I’m in a hotel room without one! For me, that’s a deal-breaker.”

W O R KOU T WAY

“My workout of choice is yoga with a little cardio, but as I get older, my back can’t handle the impact, so I am toning it down. I actually used to be a bit of a fanatic, but I’m just not up for it now. I’m also not one of those people who can wake up at 4 a.m. to work out. But, I do like to get in some yoga because it gives me that sense of calm. There’s a woman in New York named Taryn Toomey who has these great classes. They’re balance, yoga, cardio and music and they really speak to your mind.”

The next character she is taking on is Evelyn in the third installment of the blockbuster Divergent series franchise, Allegiant (“I dyed my lashes and brows brown for this role, which I actually sometimes do in ‘regular life,’” she says. “It’s nice for me because then I can leave the house without mascara on!”), followed by an April release of Demolition with Jake Gyllenhaal, in which she plays Karen, the female lead, a customer service rep who comes to the aid of an emotionally distraught husband dealing with the tragic loss of his wife. In 2017, she will reportedly reunite with director David Lynch (the man credited for helping launch Watts’s career with her role in Mulholland Drive) for his revival of Twin Peaks on Showtime. It’s a full schedule, but not one that’s unappreciated by Watts, who will be the first to admit she had a struggling career before she hit it big “later in life”—especially by Hollywood’s expectations where youth is the standard. In talking about her 40s, Watts says, “This decade is almost over. It’s been a good one, but my 30s were so fun and wonderful. It was a great time for me and really great things happened during them. My career took off; I met Liev; I started having children.” Which leads her to open up about the one aspect of her life she’s not so laid-back about: getting older. “Now that I am past 45, I start to think, ‘What’s next?’ I know things will start changing, and I know that things, like my face and my body, have already started changing, but I don’t think I know exactly what to expect,” she says. “I really think that when you are in your 40s, you start to get reflective, and I am there now. You reach a certain level of nostalgia. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a bad thing. I know that some of that nostalgia is just

“I try to stay fit and healthy, get enough sleep and have a good diet.” because my looks are changing, but hopefully I can keep driving forward.” She pauses during our conversation and adds with a thoughtful tone, “But, so far, it’s been a good life, and I don’t think I could have said that in my 30s. You just don’t have that kind of reflection at that age.” The statement comes across as confident, not wistful, when said by Watts—she is aware that she has the benefit of time on her side now, and she can look back and be proud of the choices she’s made and the way her life has unfolded. But don’t throw Watts in the “how to get older in the public eye category”—she doesn’t consider them comparable, nor does she think that, just because she is in Hollywood, that she has it any harder than anyone else. “Aging is difficult for everyone. It has its ups and downs and being in the public eye definitely does as well, but they’re two totally separate things. I think coming to terms with aging as gracefully as possible is the best thing anyone can do, no matter who you are, but everyone has their good days and bad days.” “I feel so much better as a person now than I did in my 20s, but most of the time I feel like I’m still a kid. There are days when you feel like you are on top of it and you are OK and at peace with it; then there are the days you still feel 28 inside—until you catch that reflection or see a photograph and realize you aren’t anymore. Women who age gracefully always impress me, and I hope to be one of them. They always look the most beautiful.”

TRUNK ARCHIVE

SIMPLE solutions that really WORK

The sun, hormones and inflammation can all send your skinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s melanin production cycle into extreme overdrive, causing your complexion to be unevenly toned. But, there are ways to limit and even eliminate unwanted discoloration once and for all.

why skin becomes discolored... We all have melanin in our skin. But, some of us have more of it than others. According to Beverly Hills, CA, dermatologist Zein Obagi, MD, all skin types contain the same number of melanocyte cells, but the quantity and type of melanin produced varies—darker skin generates more black-brown melanin pigment than lighter skin. “Melanin is produced by melanocytes as a way of protecting the skin from the sun, resulting in a darkening of the skin when it’s exposed to UV rays,” says New York dermatologist Julie Russak, MD. Regardless of skin color, the cause of discoloration is the same: A trigger (sun or inflammation) sends a signal to melanin-stimulating hormones to activate the enzyme tyrosinase. After the enzyme has been “turned on,” the melanocytes produce pigment. Pigment-containing cells are dispersed through certain areas of the skin. The end result: pin-size spots or patches of discolored skin that can be pink, red, brown or even black.

“Darker skin tones produce eumelanin, a black-brown pigment that shields against UV damage. As a response to sun exposure, eumelanin darkens (tans) and protects the skin,” says Dr. Obagi. “This type of melanin is more volatile and blackens easily as a response to an injury, which is why pigment problems are more common in darker skin tones.”

EUMELANIN

PREVENT IT FROM RETURNING The only way to prevent discoloration from returning is to avoid the sun and shield your skin with sunscreen every day. “Choose formulas that protect against high-energy visible rays, as melanocytes are particularly sensitive to these,” says Dr. Obagi. “Also, apply a non-hydroquinone, pigment-controlling agent like retinol, and limit inflammation by removing sebum and pollution.”

WILL IT FADE AWAY? One common misconception about discolored skin is that it will fade away by itself. Some types of pigmentation, like those caused by acne, can lighten up over time (it may take a few months, if not longer). But, the majority of discoloration needs to be treated with high-powered active ingredients and in-office treatments to eradicate spots on the surface of the skin. How deep the discoloration goes into the skin will determine how long it will take to lighten up naturally. “Once your skin experiences pigmentation, you’ll always have a tendency for it occur, especially with things like melasma,” says New York dermatologist Patricia Wexler, MD.

THE MAIN TYPES of

DISCOLORATION

Freckles

Small in size and fairly light in color, freckles are the first sign of abnormal pigment. They often show up in children and are a result of sun exposure.

MICRODERMABRASION

CHEMICAL PEELS

During microdermabrasion, the uppermost layer of skin is gently removed to get rid of sunspots, darkness and other types of superficial discoloration. There are some versions of microdermabrasion, like DermaSweep, that offer a secondary step where specialized anti-pigmentation ingredients are infused into skin to further brighten it.

Salicylic acid, glycolic acid and TCA chemical peels are often recommended to banish discoloration. Dr. Obagi says that chemical peels are powerful at speeding up results and removing deeper pigment. “Their potency can be manipulated to suit the type and depth of pigment.” However, not every skin color is suitable for a peel, and if you have a history of scarring, you may want to find another option.

Melasma

This brown, patchy discoloration tends to occur during pregnancy due to a flood of hormones, but birth control and estrogen supplements can also cause it.

AT T H E

In some cases, at-home creams and serums can only do so much and an in-office procedure needs to be part of the equation.

Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)

DAVID PRINCE; STILL-LIFE STYLIST: NICOLE SOFER FOR CA1 CA2 CORNELIA ADAMS, INC.

The result of an injury to the skin or inflammation caused by acne, eczema, or even certain medications, PIH leaves behind small, isolated spots of discoloration that are more red or pink.

The type of discoloration you have and how deep it is in your skin will determine which treatment is best. These are the most commonly prescribed solutions at the doctor’s office.

INTENSE PULSED LIGHT (IPL)

A popular choice for targeting sun-induced discoloration, IPL involves light-based energy pulsed onto the skin while simultaneously targeting blood vessels. The light seeks out the discoloration in the skin to lift it up and out. Expect for the treated areas to turn dark and flake off in a few days. “We sometimes do an IPL treatment following two laser treatments to really clean up the skin,” says Dr. Wexler.

Sunspots

Larger than a freckle, sunspots are nothing more than mutated DNA from repeat sun exposure. The lighter your skin, the more likely it is that sunspots will form.

AFTER

Sun damage, hyperpigmentation and volume loss made this 31-year-old patient look older than she really is.

Baton Rouge, LA, dermatologist Ann Zedlitz, MD, treated the problems at hand with chemical peels, injectables, fillers and IPL.

FRACTIONAL LASER RESURFACING The most intense option available, fractional laser resurfacing treatments work wonders at erasing stubborn pigmentation. Lasers like Fraxel, Halo and Clear + Brilliant, among others, create safe and controlled microinjuries in the skin to stimulate the skin’s natural healing process. As a result, discoloration is diminished as new, fresh skin comes to the surface.

Kojic acid

Turmeric

Good for: Discoloration that lives deep in the skin, such as melasma

Good for: Minimizing dark spots and preventing acne-induced pigment

Although kojic acid is lauded for its ability to lighten dark spots, because it inhibits tyrosinase, this is one ingredient that works best when used in tandem with either glycolic acid or hydroquinone (other powerful skin brighteners).

One of the more natural options available, turmeric, which serves as an antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, improves skin tone and helps limit the bacteria that causes breakouts resulting in more evenly toned skin.

Glycolic acid Good for: Brown spots When it comes to treating pigment in the skin, glycolic acid, in a peel or topical form, is effective. Glycolic acid lifts up the “glue” that holds dead, discolored skin cells on the surface—the fewer discolored skin cells there are, the more even skin looks in color.

Hydroquinone

Good for: Serious discoloration The gold standard and doctor go-to for getting rid of discoloration, hydroquinone is a chemical-based ingredient that works on tyrosinase to inhibit the production of melanin in skin. “Hydroquinone switches off melanocyte melanin production by as much as 90 percent, making it an effective skin lightener for treating severe pigmentation like melasma,” says Dr. Obagi.

Vitamin C

STILL-LIFE STYLIST: NICOLE SOFER FOR CA1 CA2 CORNELIA ADAMS, INC.

Good for: Lightening sun damage Vitamin C works wonders at tackling changes in the skin that result from sun exposure. The vitamin acts as a melanin interrupter as opposed to an ingredient that’s toxic to the melanocyte. It works on copper ions where tyrosinase lives to counteract pigment production.

05 No.

Licorice extract

Retinols AND Retinoids

Good for: Sunspots and acne scars (and acne)

Good for: Getting evenly toned skin all over

For more of a natural approach, consider licorice extract. “The main ingredient in licorice is glabridin, which inhibits tyrosinase activity to lighten discoloration,” says Dr. Wexler. Another benefit of licorice: It’s anti-inflammatory, so any active breakouts will subside and your skin will be less susceptible to further pigmenting (inflammation is a precursor to discoloration).

Prescription-strength retinoids and over-thecounter retinols encourage skin cell turnover, bringing new, evenly pigmented cells to the surface while exfoliating away discolored skin. “Depending on their strength, retinoids are effective because they, too, affect tyrosinase. Unlike hydroquinone, they deliver a more homogenous tone instead of bleaching the skin,” says Dr. Obagi.

Going short is high maintenance, even though you’d think the opposite. “The growth will be more visible both on the color and cut than on long hair. But, the washing and drying process will be much easier.” You may need to start using different products, too. “For short hair, I love products that add texture, hold and control, like pastes and pomades,” adds Seminara.

When it comes to maintaining dark color, the health of your hair is everything. “Hair that is dry or damaged is more susceptible to fading color, and consequently a dull, lackluster appearance,” says Kate Reid, director of education for COLOR.ME. “Be mindful of the products you choose. Wash with sulfate-free products, which gently cleanse your hair without stripping your color, and consider shampooing less frequently to maximize color longevity.” To play up your dark strands and give them a shiny finish, Reid says to use a shine-enhancing product, as well as a leave-in conditioning treatment on a daily basis.

DEFEND AGA I N ST DA M AG E Celebrity hairstylist Marissa Marino says hair that is colored blond is more prone to damage than dark hair because of how much it has been chemically altered and compromised, especially if your go-to style requires a curling iron, flat iron or blow-dryer. “When using hot tools, always spray a heat protectant on your hair beforehand and put the iron on the lowest setting,” she says. “Try to only heat style your hair twice a week. And, invest in a good curling iron that you know how to use, whether that be a wand or a traditional clamp iron.” If you find that your tools are too difficult to use, you could end up damaging your hair even more.

To smooth out fine lines, New York oculoplastic surgeon James R. Gordon, MD, used a combination of Botox, Restylane and laser skin resurfacing.

HOW THEY WORK:

Neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport and Xeomin are often used for softening and erasing lines and wrinkles because they limit the muscle movement that causes those lines and wrinkles to form. “If lines and wrinkles are the problem and there aren’t other concerns, surgery isn’t the answer. Neuromodulators can knock down the muscle and smooth out the skin, which works well for this type of problem,” says Chicago plastic surgeon Peter Geldner, MD. In some cases, fillers also need to be used to fix the issue.

New York oculoplastic surgeon Joseph Eviatar, MD, injected Restylane under the eye area to get rid of her tired-looking eyes.

HOW THEY WORK:

Filler or fat can be used under the lower eyelids to fill in depressions. For years, fat was the go-to, but now it’s fillers. “I like Restylane Silk because it gives a smoothing effect,” says Dr. Geldner. When it comes to injecting filler under the eyes, seek out an expert injector who has experience injecting filler in this area. “Fat can also be used to fill depressions, but it can leave the area bumpy if the skin is thin and too much is used or placed superficially,” says Dr. Mohadjer.

you might need a fractional CO2 or erbium laser treatment.

B EFO RE AFTER

An Erb-Yag laser was used by Boca Raton, FL, dermatologist Robyn Siperstein, MD, to tackle signs of aging around the eyes.

HOW THEY WORK:

The texture of the skin under your eyes is important because the area loses collagen and becomes thin and wrinkly with age. “A laser can help tighten the skin, but only so much. If it’s excessive, excision may be needed,” says Dr. Mohadjer. If there is a decent amount of excess skin, a skin pinch, where a small amount of pinchable skin is removed, can be done. “If you pinch the skin under your eyes and it stays in that shape, there is excess skin. Removing it can make a big difference,” says Minneapolis plastic surgeon John Ness, MD.

AFTER

Baton Rouge, LA, dermatologist Ann Zedlitz, MD, erased this woman’s superdeep lines with a CO2 laser treatment.

HOW THEY WORK:

In some cases, a little more help is needed than what an injectable can deliver, and that’s where a laser comes in. CO2 lasers were a mainstay in the ’90s because they eliminated some fat and gave a nice tightening effect. But, they had the potential to discolor the skin, which is why they fell to the wayside. Newer lasers, like fractional CO2 and erbium lasers, deeply penetrate cells under the skin’s surface to build new collagen, which results in skin that’s smoother and more even in texture.

Miami plastic surgeon Sean Simon, MD, minimized this patient’s drooping upper eyelids with four treatments of Pellevé (her cheeks were also treated).

HOW THEY WORK:

Many people think they need their eyes done, when in reality, it’s a low brow that’s making their upper lids heavy. Dr. Ness says that if your brows fall down and the tails of them are at the level of your brow bone when your brows are at rest, then it might be that your brows are the problem. For a nonsurgical fix, neuromodulators can be injected below your brows so that they migrate up. But, if the descent is extreme, this isn’t recommended because it drops the brow over the bone, causing the eyes to look heavy.

under-eye bags and you think you need a full eyelift,

you might need a lower blepharoplasty.

BEFO R E AFTER

Nashville, TN, oculoplastic surgeon Brian Biesman, MD, refreshed her eyes with an ablative laser treatment.

HOW THEY WORK:

Methods to rejuvenate the upper eyelid have evolved over time, and instead of the focus being on how much fat and skin can be removed, it’s now more about taking out just the right amount of skin and fat. “This preserves the volume and fullness of your upper eyelids so you don’t get that hollowed-out look that no one wants,” says Dr. Ness. Lasers are occasionally used in combination with surgery to further smooth out the skin on your eyes for a more rejuvenated look.

AFTER

New York facial plastic surgeon Dilip Madnani, MD, performed lower eyelid surgery to remove excess skin and fat.

EYE DROPS THAT LIFT For the most part, blepharoplasty is the best solution to lift sagging, fatigued eyelids back to where they belong and give the eyes a more open look. But, some doctors, like Dr. Gordon, are able to instantly lift over-hanging eyelids without a scalpel using an eye drop, which has been used for years to treat glaucoma. While the eyelift only lasts for one day (you need to re-administer the drops daily), Dr. Gordon says this is a quick fix for patients who want instant gratification without the pain, downtime and cost of surgery. It is also a great option for those whose condition is not severe enough for surgical intervention, but they desire immediate eyelid correction.

HOW IT WORKS:

An under-eye bag is nothing more than an outward reflection of displaced fat. According to La Jolla, CA, plastic surgeon Robert Singer, MD, blepharoplasty is one on the most frequently performed procedures. “Conservative surgery preserves the fat under the eyes for a natural look so the eyes don’t become hollowed out,” he says. That fat, which causes bags, can be removed or repositioned so that it lays flat. If hollows are present, too, they should be addressed with microfat grafts, fat repositioning or fillers.

THE MAGIC OF MAKEUP FOR EVERY E YE ISSUE

Makeup is the easiest way to cover up what you don’t like about your eyes. But, the trick to doing it right is to know what to use, how to apply it and what to avoid at all costs.

Primers give staying power, as do concealers, which also help to brighten the area.

Use a colorcorrecting primer to hide darkness on your lids before applying skin tone–flattering eye shadow.

Don’t neglect your brows. Fill them in to define their shape.

“Hide dark circles by applying concealer in a triangle shape under your eyes,” says celebrity makeup artist Mally Roncal.

ONE TO TRY

THE EYEBROW CONNECTION While the aesthetics of your eyes are critical for a youthful look, you can’t look past your lashes and brows, which influence your appearance. Your eyebrows frame your eyes, but they also serve a purpose:

They keep sweat, oil, dust and debris out of your eyes. But, when your brows are thin and sparse, they can accentuate any eye concerns. Sabrina Little, senior director of marketing and product development for Athena Cosmetics, Inc., says the brows provide facial recognition and give personality to the face. “If they are changed or

removed, it can make you almost unrecognizable.” For brows that have become sparse over time (or if you’ve plucked or waxed them too much), a brow enhancer can help. “Eyebrow conditioners help enhance and fill in brows for a more youthful look. Giving your brows some TLC can make your face look 10 years younger,” says Little.

“Bringing attention to the eyes doesn't always require bold color. A range of mauve and tawny shades were used to enhance the beauty that was already there.” –IVAN BETANCOURT MAKEUP ARTIST

1 If you wear eyeliner, line your upper and lower eyelids with the right colors. Celebrity makeup artist Fiona Stiles says that as you age, lining under your eyes can actually make you look older depending on your eye shape. “Use lighter, softer colors like taupe, gray or soft brown on your lower lids and dark brown or deep plum on your upper lids. The darker color will give a lift to your face and the lighter color will be less harsh.”

If you wear eye shadow, make sure to

use shades that are flattering and complementary to your skin tone. One of the biggest mistakes women make is wearing colors that don’t work with their skin color. Instead, they fight against the color of the skin and don’t create an enhancing effect. “When you choose colors that flatter your skin tone, your makeup just looks more natural and youthful,” says Stiles. You can always find a shade that suits your skin tone.

sunglass While we aren’t discounting the importance of a good eye cream and sunscreen (you should use both daily no matter what), take it one step further and don a pair of sunglasses that protect the skin around your eyes to limit the aging effects of the sun. “A good pair of sunglasses will help prevent squinting, which only further accentuates aging of the eyes,” says Dr. Singer.

POST-SURGERY MUST A good pair of sunglasses is a must-have following any type of eye-rejuvenating procedure (laser treatments included). ”Sunglasses with UV-blocking lenses and broad temple arms are always on the list of items to use post-procedure. They prevent UV rays from reaching the treated areas and causing further sun damage,” says Dr. Gladstein.

how do you know if you are deficient?

To many healthy-diet followers, eating properly means not really having to worry about mineral levels, right? Not exactly: Recent studies show that many people in the U.S. may be lacking (some numbers report as high as 80 percent of the population!) one very vital mineral— magnesium. “Magnesium is so important for stress, metabolism and more than 300 metabolic functions,” says celebrity nutritionist Paula Simpson. Here’s what you need to know about this magic mineral, how to make sure you are getting the right amount and if it’s time to start taking a magnesium supplement.

why it is the well-being mineral Magnesium is a naturally occurring mineral in the body that helps control hundreds of chemical reactions—including regulating blood pressure, strengthening muscles and bones, keeping the immune system strong and supporting cardiac and brain function, according to Jackie Damboragian, health coach at Eleven Eleven Wellness Center in New York. “Low levels can manifest itself in any number of unexpected ways and can even affect sleep and contribute to stress,” she says.

the reason deficiencies happen In a society where grocery stores are stockpiled, why do deficiencies still exist? “The typical American diet bears little resemblance to what experts recommend for fruit, vegetables and whole grains, which serve as important sources of an array of vitamins and minerals. With time, deficiencies in one or more micronutrients may lead to compromised health issues,” Simpson says. In the case of magnesium, Damboragian says that, even though it is a very simple mineral to regulate, its level in your body can be thrown off pretty easily by stress, alcohol use and various medications.

Most doctors say the best way to get tested for levels is via a blood test. “Because it is safe to take, I typically recommend a magnesium supplement based off of the symptoms my clients share with me,” Damboragian says. “However, levels should be checked through blood work.” Some signs that you might have a deficiency: “It can contribute to muscle cramps, PMS, memory problems, heart irregularities, asthma, allergies, and in extreme cases, diabetes,” she adds. WHY NOW? “I have seen a recent increase in awareness in deficiencies because of the effects it has on skin,” says Greenwich, CT, dermatologist Kim Nichols, MD, who adds that there are many ways deficiencies affect the body, but this is usually the one that gets people concerned enough to do something about it. “Patients notice when their skin isn’t as bright or clear, which are some of the first signs of a deficiency. You may even experience more breakouts, an uneven skin tone, saggy skin or skin irritation.” One of the biggest culprits: “As processed foods have become popular, magnesium levels have dropped,” Damboragian says. THE SALT SOLUTION According to Charlene Florian, chief creative officer at Kerstin Florian International, evidence shows that one way to boost magnesium levels is through beauty products. “The best way to ensure proper levels is to get tested and take a supplement, but transdermal application with magnesium lotion, oil or a mineral wellness bath, can also help,” she says. YOU MIGHT ALSO BE MISSING... In addition to magnesium, Simpson says iron, calcium and iodine are three common minerals that people (especially women) can experience a mineral imbalance in.

THE

magnesium DIET FINE-TUNING YOUR DIET IS A RELIABLE WAY TO PREVENT OR REGULATE MAGNESIUM DEFICIENCIES IN THE FIRST PLACE; EATING THESE SIX FOOD GROUPS IS AN EASY WAY TO GET STARTED.

Dark-Green, Leafy Vegetables Think spinach, kale and chard, which are also high in vitamin B.

Nuts and Seeds

Soy Beans

Sesame seeds are superhigh in magnesium, but the two that take the top billing are squash and pumpkin seeds.

White beans, black-eyed peas, kidney beans and chickpeas (and pretty much all legumes) also hit the high-magnesium mark.

AS AN ADDED BONUS, MANY HIGH-MAGNESIUM FOODS ARE ALSO A GOOD SOURCE OF CALCIUM.

Chocolate

Fish

Sure, it can also satisfy a craving for sweets, but this is one old wives’ tale you’ve probably heard before that is, thankfully, totally true. Chocolate has magnesium, but it’s best to look for dark chocolate to get the benefits.

Most peg mackerel as one of the higher sources of magnesium in the fish department, but even options like tuna contain more than the average variety.

You can also get your magnesium fix through a few other easy options like avocados, bananas, low-fat dairy and even dried fruits.

Whole, Unrefined Grains Brown rice and quinoa are good sources of magnesium, with grains like millet and bulgur following close behind.

Swounders K N THE SAFE WAY TO GET BETTER, YOUNGER-LOOKING SKIN.

It may sound too good to be true, but could the secret to healthier, more youthful skin lie in how it heals? All signs point to yes. Treatments that put skin on the path to healthy healing are the new wave of anti-aging. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how they work and what you need to know. Written by ELISE MINTON

Any time skin is injured in some capacity, be it controlled and intentional, as with something like a laser or microneedling, the body recognizes that is has been wounded and goes into repair mode. “The theory behind safe wound-healing comes from the noted observation of how skin reacts when it’s injured,” says Raleigh, NC, dermatologist Carol Trakimas, MD. “Injured skin ramps up the production of collagen and healthy vascularization of blood vessels, which promotes better blood supply.” Borrowing upon those principles has lead to a whole category of treatments (mainly in-office) that safely wound skin (at the surface and into the middle layer of the dermis, which can’t be seen by the naked eye)

what is a safe injury?

science. to create new collagen and skin tissue that, as it heals, erases signs of aging. Jupiter, FL, plastic surgeon Dana M. Goldberg, MD, says, “When skin is injured superficially, its appearance often improves dramatically.”

the skin healers

youthboosting stem cells When skin is impaired in a controlled setting and its natural defense systems kick in to heal the treated area, the skin releases signals to its stem cells to start growing. “Besides encouraging the skin stem cells to reproduce, the fibroblasts [cells in connective tissues] are also kicked into gear to release growth factors,” says Dr. Trakimas. “The fibroblasts play an important role because they are responsible for the production of collagen.” According to Vero Beach, FL, plastic surgeon Alan Durkin, MD, collagen in the skin starts to degenerate and skin begins to thin out with age. Dr. Trakimas adds, “Secreting specific growth factors in the dermis stimulates even more of a proliferation of the fibroblasts to help build out wrinkles and soften the skin.”

the collagen connection Collagen is the springy, cushiony substance in the skin that gives it plumpness. Over time, collagen levels start to taper off and skin starts to look dull, weathered and aged. Just because collagen isn’t functioning at its optimal level, doesn’t mean it can’t be jumpstarted to perform better. Years of scientific data has proven that a safe, barely visible wound to the skin created through lasers, peels and other treatments can cause a healing response that creates new collagen, leading to healthier, prettier skin. According to Dr. Goldberg, from the moment a wound occurs, platelets release a growth factor that sets off a chain reaction, causing the production of collagen and elastin. “These new proteins give skin a thicker, smoother appearance,” she says. “Fibroblasts are also stimulated to develop fibers that behave like muscle, which gradually tighten skin over several months after the wound is created.”

Be it an in-office procedure that stimulates collagen or a product that encourages faster and healthier healing, these treatments are considered the ultimate go-tos. “The safest way to create an injury to the skin is by monitoring the depth of it so that it goes deep enough to be effective, but not too deep that it leaves a scar,” says Dr. Trakimas. While all of these treatments work toward the same end goal, the more invasive they are, the better the benefit is and the faster you’ll see results (probably with some downtime).

Inside Tip

Your skin color has a lot to do with which treatment you’ll benefit from most. “Lighter skin can tolerate a wider range of treatments with minimal risk of complications like discoloration. Darker skin tones are better off using superficial peels or lasers, or treatments where the temperature can be controlled to minimize skin discoloration,” says Dr. Goldberg.

Exfoliation WHAT IT IS : The process by which dead skin cells are removed to reveal a more radiant complexion. A variety of products, such as creams, scrubs, lotions and cleansers, contain exfoliating ingredients and can be used on all skin types. Chemical peels and microdermabrasion fall into this category, too. HOW IT WORKS : “Exfoliators work, but the deeper skin isn’t pierced, so there’s no injury,” says Dr. Durkin. “They work well at turning over superficial skin cells, but you need to keep up with them to see results.” They’re also good to maintain the results of more aggressive treatments or to prep your skin for one. WHAT TO EXPECT : Most forms of exfoliation aren’t too abrasive on the skin. While there may be some redness (it should go away fast), you’ll need to repeat the process weekly to begin seeing some sort of collagen-stimulating benefit.

science. WHAT THEY ARE : The next step up from at-home exfoliating products and microdermabrasion is acidbased peels (they exfoliate, too), which work on superficial layers of skin or go deeper into the skin to create a controlled injury that brings fresh skin to the surface. “There are at-home and in-office versions,” says Dr. Durkin. “At-home peels can be effective, but you have to be consistent with them and their results aren’t the same as what you can get at your doctor’s office.” HOW IT WORKS : Supereffective for targeting superficial layers of skin, as well as the middle layer of skin we can’t see, chemical peels work wonders at correcting pigment issues, as well as smoothing the skin and creating new collagen. “Peels can reach deeper layers of skin, but that comes along with a higher risk of pigment changes in certain skin tones,” explains Dr. Goldberg. Doctor-administered medium-depth peels are the most effective for combating discoloration because they stimulate the natural repair process without any of the side effects like scarring or hypopigmentation. They also speed up the skin cell turnover process to get rid of dead surface cells. Some peels physically peel the skin, while others just give a gentle sloughing or no shedding at all. WHAT TO EXPECT : The treatment is quick, but depending on which acids are used and how deep they go into your skin, you may feel some burning or stinging (once it’s neutralized, it subsides). Your skin may be red afterward and flake and peel over the next few days (up to a week). In the end, you’ll see fresh, new, evenly toned skin.

Microneedling WHAT IT IS : A minimally invasive procedure that uses tiny needle tips to rejuvenate skin and boost collagen. At-home microneedling rollers work, but they aren’t as strong as what a doctor offers (only see experienced providers that use sterile equipment). HOW IT WORKS : As Dr. Trakimas explains, microneedling creates tiny microscopic holes in the outer layer of skin that activate the fibroblast cells. “In doing so, it makes new collagen and elastin, promotes the release of growth factors and encourages healthy blood vessels to form,” she says. “We can also deliver antioxidants and peptides to deeper layers of skin by administering them through the microchannels that have been created.” WHAT TO EXPECT : You may need a topical anesthetic because there could be some discomfort. Following the procedure, your skin will be red, tight and warm—there may be a bit of bleeding, too. You may notice dryness or flaking within the first week. Wearing sunscreen is imperative to prevent hyperpigmentation. After two or three months, you may see a slight reduction in wrinkles and plumper skin that’s more even in texture with less sun damage and smaller pores.

Laser Skin Resurfacing WHAT IT IS : Stronger than microneedling, lasers use fractionated energy to create microwounds in the skin. They can be ablative, meaning they are superinvasive and require more downtime but produce more dramatic results in one treatment, or nonablative, which is a less-invasive version that requires more treatments. HOW IT WORKS : “Laser resurfacing injures the skin at a very precise depth by targeting specific tissues using various wavelengths,” explains Reno, NV, plastic surgeon Tiffany McCormack, MD. The laser emits exact bursts of heat to the skin, which then creates tiny columns in it. “It’s the energy from the laser itself and the deep heating that causes a good part of the collagen stimulation,” says Dr. Durkin. The skin recognizes the damage, and as it heals, new collagen is created—as well as new skin—to give a healthy, tighter, plumper look and wipe away signs of sun damage. “Another benefit is mild skin tightening,” adds Dr. McCormack. WHAT TO EXPECT : There is pain involved with this (it’s not for the faint of heart), so make sure to discuss anesthesia options with your doctor first. Directly after the treatment, your skin will be red, tender and swollen and there may be some bleeding or oozing (the more invasive the laser, the longer this will last, but it should go away after a few days; more ablative lasers can take a couple of weeks), so it’s best to take some time off work and stay home. You’ll also need to avoid the sun and keep your skin protected from abrasions until it’s fully healed. A few months after the procedure, your skin will look brand-new—smoother, tighter, plumper and void of imperfections and damage.

“It’s the energy from the laser itself and the deep heating that causes a good part of the collagen stimulation.” –DR. DURKIN

Perfec Skin at Different beauty issues arise at various ages. But, just because you’re faced with a skin problem doesn’t mean you have to live with it. Tackling the issue can put your skin on the path to healthy aging in years to come.

SA F E G UA R D AGAINST SUN DAMAGE

AXELLE/BAUER-GRIFFIN/GETTY IMAGES

In your 20s (and beyond), it’s imperative to use SPF every single day. This helps prevent skin discoloration and sun damage as you age. “The sooner you learn to protect your skin from the sun (with sunscreen that contains titanium dioxide and zinc oxide), the better. Most of us do the majority of the damage to our skin when we are young,” says Seattle dermatologist Jennifer Reichel, MD. “It’s hard to achieve a smooth, discoloration-free complexion when there is sun damage. Pigment-erasing treatments are essential, like IPL, lasers such as Fraxel or Halo, or peels that ‘pick up’ brown pigment and improve redness and broken vessels,” she says. When your skin needs some color, use a self-tanner instead of baking in the sun or a tanning bed.

For those who aren’t keen on injectables and fillers, bangs are a quick way to hide any lines or discoloration that call your forehead home. Celebrity stylist Juan Carlos Maciques says that bangs are a great way to draw attention away from your skin imperfections because they cover the area of concern. “If acne is the issue at hand, cutting bangs may be counterproductive, as the oils from your hair may aggravate it,” he explains. When cutting bangs, Maciques says to make sure they are long and that the ends are feathered slightly for softness. “Blunt and short bangs will draw attention to the problem, which is not what you want to do.”

PLAN A PROACTIVE APPROACH Healthy skin that’s true to its youthful nature, like Katie’s, normally requires some work on your part (unless you are genetically blessed with perfect skin). Chico, CA, dermatologist Kafele Hodari, MD, says to take preventive measures, like protecting your skin from the sun, getting enough sleep, eating a healthy diet, and using Retin-A and good moisturizing skin-care products to fight the first signs of aging. “In your 30s, early signs of photoaging become apparent, which manifest as fine lines, wrinkles and irregular pigment,” he says. “In addition to preventive techniques, simple in-office procedures like Botox, to decrease fine lines on your forehead and around your eyes, and microneedling and chemical peels, which reduce red and brown patches caused by the sun, can make a difference, too.”

Once pores become stretched out, your skin, as a whole, tends to look older. “This is because there’s damage to the collagen and elastin that give structural support to your pores,” says Fresno, CA, dermatologist Kathleen Behr, MD. “Sun damage, smoking and pollution also result in enlarged pores.” While large pores can be genetic and are more frequently seen in those with oily skin, they can affect all skin types. “To protect against them, use SPF 30 daily, wash with a mild exfoliator, and use retinol, which increases cell turnover, unclogs pores and stimulates collagen production for good structural support,” explains Dr. Behr. Lasers and chemical peels further exfoliate skin to improve pore size.

The trick to looking at least a decade younger in your 50s is moisture.

THE MIRACLE OF MOISTURE The trick to looking at least a decade younger in your 50s is moisture—it’s essential at every age, but even more so for mature skin because it gives it a plump, healthy look. “Dry skin makes us look older because it increases the appearance of lines, wrinkles and sunspots. With age, skin produces less moisture, especially if it is sun-damaged or has been exposed to harsh chemicals. That’s why it’s important to add moisture to your skin daily,” explains New York dermatologist Gary Goldenberg, MD. To keep your skin well hydrated, he suggests using moisturizers with sunscreen every morning and a barrier repair cream at night. Hydrating from the inside out is important, too, by drinking plenty of water each day and eating water-rich foods.

Get rid of plaque on your teeth by eating apples. Acting almost like a toothbrush as you chew on them, crunchy, nutritious apples help to remove hard-to-reach bacteria in between teeth. Page 71

Strengthen your bones with calcium. Aside from the well-known benefits of building strong bones and teeth, calcium also helps muscles contract and nerves send messages to our brain. Pages 38, 149

Brighten your smile with activated charcoal. The adhesive properties in activated charcoal allow it to bind with surface stains on your teeth and strip them away to make your smile appear whiter and brighter. Page 71

Replace your morning oatmeal with chia seeds. These tiny, tasteless seeds pack a healthy dose of fiber, omega-3s, iron, calcium and essential fatty acids, making them a perfect contender to incorporate into your next meal or snack. Page 74

Boost your toner with cucumber. The next time youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re shopping for a toner, scan the ingredient label for this good-for-your-skin food that delivers antioxidant benefits and soothing properties to your complexion. Page 76

Struggling with brown spots? Use glycolic acid. Glycolic acid, a powerful alphahydroxy acid, has been proven to be effective in treating pigmentation. Look for sugarcane-derived glycolic acid in topical

products and at-home peels, which release the buildup of dead skin cells where pigment may be trapped. The acid works wonders in evening out skin texture, too. Page 124

Amp up your skin-care routine with jade. The addition of gemstones like jade and rose quartz to skin-care products is becoming more popular because these stones offer healing and beautifying benefits that may surprise you. Page 40

Reverse pigmentation with kojic acid. This mushroom-derived acid is commonly used in conjunction with alphahydroxy acids to halt melatonin production deep in the skin, which works wonders on fighting dull complexions and dark spots. Pages 84, 124

NEWBEAUTY TOP DOCTORS NewBeauty is the most reliable source for all of your beauty concerns. We make sure the doctors quoted and highlighted in our magazine and on our website are boardcertified, practicing within scope, and reputable and ethical. “Many doctors do not practice within the parameters of their specialty training, which can lead to complications during and after surgery, and ultimately death,” says La Jolla, CA, plastic surgeon Robert Singer, MD. The NewBeauty doctors featured on the following two-page profile advertisements are peer-reviewed and vetted to make sure their board training is valid.

DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START? Visit newbeauty.com for a complete list of important questions to discuss with your doctor before committing to anything. You’ll find information on everything from anesthesia and red flags to how long your results will last and so much more.

THE INSIDER’S LIST Not every practicing doctor is equipped to do every single aesthetic treatment available, nor should they. You should only choose a board-certified doctor that really understands your concerns and can perform the right procedure for you. Use this quick guide as a reference for who to see for which procedures. To learn more about specific societies and boards, visit us online at newbeauty.com.

Education: After completing four years of college and four years of medical school, these doctors undergo proper medical training to become specialized in hair restoration.

WHAT TO ASK YOUR DOCTOR

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO BE PREPARED FOR YOUR BEAUTY CONSULTATIONS AND KNOW EXACTLY WHAT TO ASK BEFORE YOU DECIDE ON ANY AESTHETIC TREATMENT. HERE ARE SOME QUESTIONS TO HELP YOU GET STARTED.

How many procedures, like mine, have you performed? And can you show me your before-and-after photos?

Is there anything that you recommend I do before my procedure to ensure better results or a quicker recovery?

What are the risks associated with this procedure? Are there any alternative treatments?

What is the surgery like? What is the recovery like? When will I begin to see results?

When can I go back to the gym? When can I start wearing makeup and using skin-care products? How can I maintain my results?

ACHIEVING DRAMATIC RESULTS

DR. DAVID W. KIM

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

aving authored more than 50 scientific papers, articles and chapters in medical literature, Dr. David W. Kim, the former chief of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery at the University of California, San Francisco, enjoys challenging the classical views of beauty. “Sure there are textbooks that provide guidelines about ideal measurements, distances and angles, but I’ve never been one to adopt a set belief system about beauty—except for the fact that there is no ‘cookie-cutter’ formula when it comes to the human form,” says Dr. Kim. Routinely called upon for complex revision rhinoplasty cases, Dr. Kim has honed his approach to ensure optimal results and help patients set appropriate expectations.

FIGHT SIGNS OF AGING By

DR. JILL L. HESSLER HE SSLER PLA STIC SURGERY PAL O ALTO, CALIFORNIA

atering to a healthconscious population that wants to go beyond treating the symptoms of facial aging to preventing them, Dr. Jill L. Hessler works tirelessly to educate her patients on everything from fractional CO2 laser options and chemical peels to facelifts and filler treatments. “I love that I get to work with such an educated population,” says Dr. Hessler. “My patients easily understand and get excited about the latest treatments, and it really feels like a partnership.” Drawing on her extensive surgical experience, Dr. Hessler adds, “I’ve performed all of the different facelift techniques, so I know the strengths and limitations of each one. It comes down to assessing the patient.”

Matching the right custom treatments to your lifestyle.

WHO I AM

WHAT SETS MY PRACTICE APART

WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT MY PROFESSION

Fortunately, living in the Bay Area I am in the heart of many of the companies that are developing the latest lasers and devices and I am frequently called on to try out these machines, therefore, we have a myriad of technologies available in our office—for each concern we frequently have two or three ways to improve it and we can create a tailored plan with a synergy of treatment options to provide better results with less recovery time

2. THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT MY FIELD People often come in wanting to do everything they can to avoid surgery because they think to have plastic surgery means to look “pulled” or “fake,” but I often tell them the only plastic surgery you notice on others is bad plastic surgery; if the procedures are done correctly you should not even notice that someone has had “work” done

3. MOST MEMORABLE PATIENT REACTIONS It’s very rewarding to see a patient’s confidence and beauty shine through following surgery

I love the relationship I have with my patients, whether it is taking care of them through a stressful time, such as surgery, or starting a lifelong partnership with noninvasive treatments— our patients become like family in our practice

5. WHAT I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT No matter where I go, whether on vacation or to speak at plastic surgery meetings, I never leave home without my topical vitamin C serum and sunscreen

6. WHEN TO CONSIDER A FACELIFT I tell patients when you wake up every day and the first thing you do is look in the mirror and try to pull the skin up with your fingers to get rid of that skin—when you can’t look in the mirror without doing that—then it is time for surgery

My goal is to create improvements that look so natural that it appears they’ve always been there.

DR. MICHAEL R. MACDONALD AE STHETIC SURGERY CENTER, INC. SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

ffering a broad range of services from facial surgical procedures to advanced medical skin-care and an esthetician, Dr. Michael R. Macdonald and his staff at the Aesthetic Surgery Center in San Francisco pride themselves on creating an exceptional experience for each and every patient. “Because no two patients are the same, I develop an individualized approach through careful and active listening to my patients’ goals and interests,” says Dr. Macdonald. His collaborative approach allows him to customize a plan that results in the most natural-looking outcome. “My goal is to create improvements that look so natural that it appears as though they’ve always been there,” says the doctor.

WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT MY PROFESSION

WHAT SETS MY PRACTICE APART

I enjoy improving the way people feel about themselves—their selfconfidence, image and sense of self-worth. I also love the detailed thinking, vision, planning and execution required to create a visible and tangible outcome

I take the time to discuss my specific plans to address a patient’s goals, including a step-by-step outline of my surgical plans and visual aids—particularly with rhinoplasty—so my patients feel comfortable that what I propose will accomplish their goals

THREE WORDS THAT BEST DESCRIBE ME

CAREER-DEFINING PATIENT

Caring, problem solver, meticulous

When a 17-year-old patient came to me with a flattened nasal deformity that she’d had since birth, I was able to reconstruct her nose to create a more natural appearance and her selfconfidence skyrocketed

3. MY DREAM INNOVATION Something to effectively and predictably improve bruising and lymphatic drainage around the eyes and face to speed recovery

4. THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS MEDICAL MYTH I’VE HEARD Puffy eyes are caused by lack of sleep—puffiness will not be resolved with sleep alone. A lower blepharoplasty can eliminate puffiness to give the rejuvenated appearance of being consistently rested and refreshed

FULL FACIAL SCULPTING By

DR. DAVID MABRIE MABRIE FACIAL COSMETIC SURGERY SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

uilding on his extensive training in facial plastic surgery, Dr. David Mabrie has become an innovator and educator in facial sculpting with dermal fillers. “It’s amazing what we’re able to accomplish nonsurgically,” says the double board-certified doctor. “We can make significant changes that look completely natural without making any cuts or incisions.” Specializing in full facial treatment, Dr. Mabrie’s approach allows him to provide harmony and balance to his patients’ facial features by going beyond fixing one specific problem or isolated area. “I take every component into consideration. The eyes, nose, chin, everything. Every little change has an effect,” says the doctor.

ENCINO, CALIFORNIA

WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT MY PROFESSION That patients like to see me for my services

edicated to helping patients achieve the results they desire, Dr. George Sanders uses imaging technology in his practice, primarily for facial surgery patients. He also uses a type of tummy tuck technique that allows for a lower chance of fluid collections afterward, and in some cases, allows for no drains at all. Minimal scar breast lifts are used whenever an excellent result can be obtained, and facelifts are performed under local anesthesia when a more extensive lift is not required. “All surgeries are done at the fully certified Encino Surgicenter, located adjacent to my office. Patients can choose either a sedation or local method of anesthesia depending on what best suits their surgical needs.”

YOUR BEST FACE AND BODY By

DR. DANIEL YAMINI, DR. STEVEN SVEHLAK SUNSET COSMETIC SURGERY L OS ANGELE S, CALIFORNIA

We strive to help each patient feel safe, comfortable and confident.

WHO WE ARE

THREE THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE SURGERY

HOW WE MAKE THE BEST FIRST IMPRESSION

Patients need to make sure they understand plastic surgery, as in learning what the standard practices are regarding typical procedures; learn and know the qualifications, certifications and history or background of a potential surgeon; and state your expectations out loud

By listening—it’s a lost art, and the only true way to connect with someone and gain their trust

ouble board-certified and Fellows of the American College of Surgeons, Dr. Daniel Yamini and Dr. Steven Svehlak are consistently recognized by their patients and peers for their precision cosmetic enhancements of the face and body, as well as their correctional work. Patients travel from all over the world to visit the surgeons, who focus on patient safety, comfort and satisfaction, while striving to deliver the most natural-looking results possible. One of the fastest-growing procedures at Sunset Cosmetic Surgery is the Brazilian butt lift. The procedure reshapes the buttocks using a combination of fat grafting and targeted liposculpting for a perkier, curvier backside.

THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS MEDICAL MYTHS WE’VE HEARD The two biggest myths out there are that plastic surgery is only for women, and it’s only for the rich and famous

3. WHAT WE LOVE MOST ABOUT OUR PROFESSION Helping patients enhance their own features

4. HOW OUR PROFESSION HAS EVOLVED Nonsurgical injectable treatments are advancing and becoming increasingly popular among not only women, but men too

6. WHAT SETS OUR PRACTICE APART At Sunset Cosmetic Surgery, we really take the time to get to know where each patient is coming from and what is motivating them to make a change in their life

7. THE FUTURE OF OUR FIELD As technology continues to advance, making enhancements to one’s physical appearance will become even more affordable, safe and easy

8. THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT OUR FIELD The biggest misconception about plastic surgery that we see is confusion over the difference between a “cosmetic surgeon” and a board-certified plastic surgeon

Through a unique combination of deft surgical skill, a keen artistic eye and congenial bedside manner, Dr. Nguyen consistently earns high praise from his patients and their numerous referrals. “I believe that the best outcomes are achieved when both the patient and the surgeon share a common objective and establish a consensus regarding aesthetic taste,” he says. Dr. Nguyen maintains a busy practice in Beverly Hills, with satellite offices in Manhattan, Greenwich, Connecticut and Newport Beach.

WHO I AM

WHAT SETS MY PRACTICE APART

In my initial consultations, I’m very definitive in my recommendations; I also care deeply about how my patients envision the results they hope to achieve

At my practice we pride ourselves on striking the delicate balance between sophistication and approachability

2. MOST MEMORABLE PATIENT REACTION When a patient in her 60s joyfully exclaimed, “My neck didn’t look this good in my 20s!”

3. MY MOTTO The approach to facial plastic surgery by both patient and doctor should be a conservative one, and the results should appear natural and balanced

5. THREE THINGS EVERYONE SHOULD DO BEFORE SURGERY I encourage patients to undergo a rigorous and comprehensive medical clearance to ensure they are good candidates for the procedure; it’s also very important to research a physician’s educational background and verify that their chosen surgeon is board-certified in his or her specialty

Dr. Nguyen and his staff are committed to maintaining the highest possible standards of clinical care and service.

WHO I AM

THE FUTURE OF MY FIELD

THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT MY FIELD

I believe we are going to see more men turn to plastic surgery, and more interest in procedures that generate a more natural-looking result

That you can contour your body with long-term results without proper diet and regular physical activity

MY HAPPIEST PROFESSIONAL MOMENT

WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT MY PROFESSION

I would have to say it was being a part of the UCLA team that separated the conjoined, Guatemalan twins in 1991

I love seeing patients happy with their decision to undergo plastic surgery

3. WHAT SETS MY PRACTICE APART We are a family and try to have our patients feel like they are a part of our family

4. CAREER-DEFINING PROCEDURE I think the Mommy Makeover because it makes an amazing transformation on a woman’s body after having children

GET A MORE NATURAL LOOK By

DR. PETER NEWEN IMAGE PLA STIC SURGERY AT THE IMAGE CENTER HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA

pecializing in facial sculpting to help his patients achieve balance and proportion, Dr. Peter Newen relies on his artistic eye and skilled hands to help refine facial features. His dedication to patient care and commitment to achieving natural results are evident in his work. “This profession is my life’s passion and I’m grateful every day for the trust my patients place in me. I’ve been told I have a knack for visualizing an aesthetic outcome, so it’s exciting to help patients see the possibilities,” he says. Dr. Newen also developed the “Newenlift,” a minimal incision facelift that combines targeting the skin, muscle and fat in a multilayer procedure to achieve a natural-looking and long-lasting result.

This profession is my life’s passion and I am grateful every day for the trust my patients place in me. WHO I AM

MY OPERATING ROOM PLAYLIST

MY HAPPIEST PROFESSIONAL MOMENT

Classic rock mixed in with a little alternative. On occasion I like to listen to whatever is popular so that my 15-yearold daughter doesn’t think her dad is ancient

I was honored to win the grand prize for “Best Overall Patient Enhancement” at THE Aesthetic Awards in 2010 and 2011

MY BEST ADVICE FOR PATIENTS

HOW I MAKE THE BEST FIRST IMPRESSION

Follow your intuition and choose a surgeon who not only has a great reputation, but also one you can trust and feel comfortable with. Never make a decision based on pricing. This is your body and your face, so don’t choose the cheapest doctor, choose the best one

I always speak the truth and I think patients feel at ease with me because they get the sense that I truly care that their results will be as natural and beautiful as possible

3. MOST MEMORABLE THING I LEARNED THIS YEAR Last year I traveled on a medical mission trip with Project Vietnam to repair cleft lips and palates. We worked tirelessly trying to operate on as many children as we could. I was humbled by my experience. Sometimes we forget that we can make this world a better place simply by applying the skills we already possess to a new situation. I’m glad I was able to use my surgical skill to improve the lives of so many children during that trip

6. MY MOST UNIQUE PERSONALITY TRAIT Honesty: It’s the pillar of my practice and my personal life

The key to facial rejuvenation is a natural, refreshed look.

DR. CORY YEH YEH FACIAL PLA STIC SURGERY ORANGE COUNT Y, CALIFORNIA

acial plastic surgery is a perfect fit for Dr.

Cory Yeh because it allows him to combine his perfectionist nature, artistic approach and technical skill to produce optimal patient outcomes. Dr. Yeh specializes in nonsurgical and surgical facial rejuvenation and has mastered the micro fat transfer procedure, an innovative technique using the body’s own resources to restore volume to areas of the face that appear tired and hollow. “Fat transfer is a minimally invasive procedure that restores youthful fullness and helps maintain a natural, beautiful appearance,” says Dr. Yeh. A double board-certified surgeon, Dr. Yeh possesses a wealth of experience in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery.

WHO I AM

MY HAPPIEST PROFESSIONAL MOMENT

MY BIGGEST ACCOMPLISHMENTS

When I had the opportunity to launch my own medical practice, Yeh Facial Plastic Surgery

I performed my medical and undergraduate training at Stanford University, and my surgical training at Harvard University where I was fortunate to learn the most advanced techniques in facial rejuvenation

THREE WORDS THAT BEST DESCRIBE ME

Honest, meticulous, caring

HOW I WOULD SPEND EXTRA TIME IN A DAY

3. THE FUTURE OF MY FIELD In the future we will see a surge of options for more nonsurgical facial rejuvenation as well as less-invasive techniques to address the changes in the face and neck associated with aging

I would spend more time with my little girls

7. MY PHILOSOPHY I strongly believe that, after treatment, patients need to look completely natural and should have a refreshed appearance without looking “overdone”

THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT MY FIELD

WHAT SETS MY PRACTICE APART

That one singular-named procedure exists that will make a patient look years younger—in reality, every face is different, which demands a uniquely tailored approach to each individual patient

Our consultation process includes a full facial analysis and exam, review of patient pictures, computer simulation of results, review of pertinent case studies with pictures, and discussion of all the available treatment options

DR. JOSEPH GRZESKIEWICZ SAN DIEGO / RANCHO MIRAGE, CALIFORNIA

chieving the natural-looking results every patient wants is something Dr. Joseph Grzeskiewicz strives for with each procedure he performs, whether it’s breast augmentation or breast reduction. “I enjoy performing breast surgery the most and I would consider it to be my forte,” says the doctor. “With breast augmentations, I use a dual-plane technique for implant placement, which in my opinion, allows for a more natural-looking result. I try to be as meticulous as I can with the procedure, which is a very personalized experience where every woman has a different body shape and different needs, goals and dreams. The goal is to make my patients feel great about their bodies once again.”

WHO I AM

TIJUANA, MEXICO

THE FUTURE OF MY FIELD Noninvasive procedures for facial rejuvenation

atients that are seeking aesthetic surgery

should expand their search to Mexico. So says Dr. Juan Carlos Fuentes. However, he is quick to caution that patients should practice due diligence when choosing a surgeon abroad. “There are brilliant board-certified doctors in Mexico who have completed stringent requirements,” he says. “Many of us belong to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and attend annual meetings. We stay current with all the medical techniques and training.” Dr. Fuentes advises that surgery in an exotic locale is only a good idea if you have chosen your “guide” carefully.

His modern, boutique practice strives to accommodate patients every step of the way, starting with a personal consultation and ending with a naturallooking outcome, all executed by the dermatologist himself. “Establishing a trusting relationship with patients is a vital part of my philosophy,” says Dr. Narurkar.

CAREER-DEFINING PROCEDURE

WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT MY PROFESSION

The one procedure which has changed my career is Botox, which I call the “Big Bang” of facial aesthetics

2. THE FUTURE OF MY FIELD The future of the field is expanding on the palette of skin care, injectables and energy-based devices and using them in combination for a true nonsurgical facial and non-facial rejuvenation

3. MOST OUTRAGEOUS MEDICAL MYTH I’VE HEARD Many people still believe that dramatic results can only be achieved through surgical means

I’ve been able to be a part of cutting-edge clinical trials that have truly changed the landscape of aesthetics; I’ve also helped educate the next generation of core specialty physicians such as boardcertified dermatologists in venues such as the Cosmetic Bootcamp—they are the future of our specialty

6. THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT MY FIELD That one “tool”—as opposed to multiple modalities—can address all of the issues of any given medical or cosmetic condition; when in actuality, most treatments require a multimodal approach

4. HOW MY PROFESSION HAS EVOLVED In this profession there are some providers with limited education and expertise who claim to be aesthetic experts, I refer to them as “pretenders;” I always tell my patients to seek board-certified core specialty physicians that practice within their scope, nothing can replace real education and expertise

MY ULTIMATE SKIN-CARE ADVICE

Personalized attention—I do all of my own fillers and muscle relaxers, as well as the majority of the lasers. I have a product specialist and an aesthetician who will answer all your skin-care questions and customize a system that is right for you; she also offers HydraFacialTM treatments

SMALL CHANGES DRAMATIC DIFFERENCE By

Small changes can make a big difference in people’s lives.

WHO I AM

WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT MY PROFESSION

MY TELEVISION APPEARANCES

I love the blend of art and science, and the chance to interact with patients of all ages

L OS ANGELE S, CALIFORNIA

MOST MEMORABLE PATIENT REACTIONS I like seeing how small changes can make a big difference in people’s lives

efreshed, relaxed

and natural—those are the results that Dr. Rebecca Fitzgerald strives for when it comes to her patients, and herself. “As a person in my early 50s, I understand my clients’ concerns. I’m very candid about what I’ve had done. You can look refreshed without looking ‘done,’” she says. “I’ve learned that it’s best to correct a little bit here and there rather than waiting for substantial changes.” She also emphasizes that there are many treatment options available. “Understanding how volume loss happens as we age, along with new treatments, has dramatically increased the ability to address changes due to aging outside of the operating room.”

3. HOW I ADVOCATE EDUCATION IN MY FIELD I’m a member of the Botox Cosmetic National Education Faculty and Bioform Medical Education Faculty, as well as a national and international trainer for Sculptra—I train other physicians on specific techniques and I am a frequent contributer in many peer-reviewed medical journals

4. THE FUTURE OF MY FIELD We will continue to see more minimally invasive techniques to address the concerns associated with aging

I have appeared as an expert contributor on numerous local and national television shows including The Doctors and Entertainment Tonight

6. MY ULTIMATE SKIN-CARE ADVICE The antidote to premature aging is multipronged—diet, sun protection, adequate rest and exercise

7. WHAT I FIND MOST REWARDING ABOUT MY PROFESSION In this profession you can do little things that impact a patient’s appearance and selfconfidence; facilitating positive changes for my patients is very gratifying

THREE WORDS THAT BEST DESCRIBE ME

clientele, Dr. Karyn Grossman prides herself on the long-standing relationships she has with all of her patients. “I’m honored to have many of the worlds’ most famous faces trust me, but I’m also proud to have patients that have been with me for more than 20 years,” says Dr. Grossman. What sets her apart is her dedication to providing the most natural-looking results. Although she has participated in several clinical trials for the latest dermatologic technologies, she maintains a conservative approach. “I’ve always stood by my beliefs in creating a more refreshed, natural look for my patients. I am happy to say no if someone is asking for too much,” says the doctor.

I would invent a device for noninvasive skin tightening that could deliver different amounts of tightening to all parts of the face and body

3. MY GREATEST ACHIEVEMENTS My kids, my new skin-care line and my practice. I have never followed trends, but have always stayed firm in my beliefs and it has earned me the trust of my patients for many years

6. MY ULTIMATE SKIN-CARE ADVICE Combining procedures is the best way to maintain a natural, youthful look. A little bit of this and a sprinkle of that as opposed to a filler, neurotoxin or laser treatment

7. CAREER-DEFINING PROCEDURE My first Thermage treatment 13 years ago changed my career. It was the first time that noninvasive tissue tightening came into play. It’s what has kept me looking young all these years

4. MOST MEMORABLE PATIENT REACTION When a patient’s husband sent me roses before her follow-up appointment with a note stating, “Thank you for making my wife look like she did when I met her 15 years ago.”

Dr. Grossman only performs procedures she’d use on herself or her family.

DR. KATHERINE AHN DR. KATHERINE AHN AT THE CENTER FOR AE STHETIC DENTISTRY BEVERLY HILLS / HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA

WHO I AM

WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT MY PROFESSION

MY GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT

The ability to make a difference in people’s lives by improving not only their smiles, but their health as well

Besides my daughter Elise, and the many patients whose smiles I transformed, my foundation, OC CARES, which is dedicated to helping my community

MY DREAM INNOVATION

THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT MY FIELD

Liquid veneers that rival porcelain veneers

eatured as one of Orange County’s “Top Dentists” in Orange Coast Magazine, Dr. Katherine Ahn has an artistic eye for aesthetics and a heartfelt dedication to her patients. “I have a passion for providing the best possible care for my patients. I listen to their concerns and goals, and I take the time to educate them on the options available. I feel it’s my responsibility to help guide them through the process,” she says. Dr. Ahn recently launched a new teeth-whitening system. “EncoreTM is formulated to effectively whiten teeth without the sensitivity and pain often associated with professional teeth-whitening systems,” says Dr. Ahn. “What makes the system stand apart is its stain-guard technology.”

3. WHAT SETS MY PRACTICE APART

That teeth whitening is excruciating—with my new products, the Encore Teeth Whitening and Stain Guard Systems—whitening is effective and virtually pain-free

I never rush my work—I take the time to give my patients the care they deserve

You only live once, so make each day count

MY MOTTO

THE FUTURE OF MY FIELD Digital dentistry: less waste, less mess, more efficiency, more accuracy, better dentistry

5. MY HAPPIEST PROFESSIONAL MOMENTS When my patients express how happy they are with their new smiles and that they enjoy coming to see me

Dr. Ahn’s Encore Smart Teeth Whitening system provides maximum brightening results.

I see the finished product and work backward to create youthful and natural smiles.

CREATING DAZZLING SMILES

MY PHILOSOPHY

MOST MEMORABLE PATIENT REACTION

DR. KOUROSH MADDAHI

BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA

pecializing in full-mouth reconstruction, as well as keeping up with the latest innovations in cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Kourosh Maddahi remains at the forefront of his field. His dedication to education, innovation and patient satisfaction have earned him the Consumer Research Council of America’s vote as one of “America’s Top Dentists,” as well as the “Best of Beverly Hills” award by the United States Commerce Association. His unique approach allows him to create beautiful, dazzling smiles. “I see the finished product and work backward with my patients to create youthful and natural smiles. They often say that the teeth they leave with look more natural than the ones they came in with,” says Dr. Maddahi.

Identify oral health problems and concerns, provide a simple, rapid solution and deliver on that promise

WHAT SETS MY PRACTICE APART In most cases, full-mouth reconstruction takes less than two weeks with the technology and the master lab tech that I have. My client concierge is able to handle anything from hotel reservations and car service to restaurant and shopping recommendations

3. ONE PRODUCT NO ONE SHOULD LIVE WITHOUT

I was involved in a case for The Doctors where a young man lost all of his teeth due to daily use of medication for a very painful chronic disease. We reconstructed his smile with hours of surgery and months of work. When we revealed his new smile, he asked his girlfriend to marry him. It was one of the most rewarding moments of my career

6. THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION ABOUT MY FIELD That veneers or crowns will look like bulky dentures. Each veneer or crown is made by a master technician to look like it was always there

My Oral Essentials mouthwash. It contains ancient remedies like Dead Sea salt, French essential oils and aloe vera with xylitol and zinc to maintain a balanced ecosystem inside the mouth

4. WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT MY PROFESSION Being able to change a patient’s life through their smile

In his book, Anti-Aging Dentistry, Dr. Maddahi gives an in-depth look at how cosmetic dentistry can take decades off the face.

sure to look at multiple sets of before-and-after images when considering a doctor to perform a procedure on you. Look for images that feel true to your style and body ideals, whether they’re conservative, natural or dramatic, because each doctor has their own individual sense of style (many often view plastic surgery as an art form). By having some sort of visual representation, you and your doctor can be on the same page as to what your expectations are to make sure they’re realistic.

Dr. Yuly Gorodisky Oxnard, CA

AFTER

A picture is worth a thousand words. Yet, when it comes to plastic surgery, most patients underestimate the power of good before-andafter images. The ultimate communication tool to discuss with your surgeon, these images let you show and tell your doctor what you want and don’t want in terms of results. Another benefit of these images is that they give you a good sense of a doctor’s aesthetic style, which is important when gauging the type of results you are probably going to get. Make

WHAT THE

EXPERTS SAY... Get a bright, youthful smile

The right combination of injectables and fillers can rejuvenate your face with little to no downtime.

RED CARPET– WORTHY SMILE

Take years off your look with a teeth-whitening treatment that eliminates stains for a more youthfullooking smile.

REPLENISH ELASTICITY

New York, NY ”A full, broad smile can help visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Giving your teeth additional volume via veneers will dramatically improve your look, making you appear more youthful,” says cosmetic dentist Nargiz Schmidt, DDS. smileinthecity.com

Alphahydroxy acids and retinol are ingredients that benefit the skin and work to stimulate collagen production.

SAFEGUARD YOUR SKIN

Preserve your skin’s youthful glow by keeping it protected from the aging effects of the sun.

The right procedure can take years off New York, NY Oculoplastic surgeon James R. Gordon, MD, says, “Microneedling with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) reduces wrinkles, acne scars and discoloration, stimulates collagen growth and helps prevent skin aging for overall rejuvenation.” cosmeticeyelids.com

Erase wrinkles with noninvasive options

PRACTICE HEALTHY HABITS

Maintain beautiful skin by following a proper skin-care regimen, exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet and drinking plenty of water.

Lake Mary, FL ”A noninvasive treatment like Botox, Xeomin or Dysport can quickly smooth out forehead wrinkles and lift and shape your brows to give you a more relaxed and rejuvenated appearance,” says facial plastic surgeon Edward J. Gross, MD. wedofaces.com

Beverly Hills, CA ”Defy gravity during the early stages of aging with hyaluronic acid fillers like Restylane Lyft and Juvéderm Voluma to add lost facial volume for a subtle lift and beautiful contour,” says dermatologist Rhonda Rand, MD. mybeverlyhillsdermatologist.com The doctors featured in this story have not treated this celebrity.
