It may or may not come as a surprise but, the most common skincare concern for aesthetic patients continues to be acne and the side effects of acne including hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, and pitting acne outbreaks leave behind. In fact, the American Academy of Dermatology reports that up to 50 million Americans are affected by acne annually. Acne is also increasingly affecting adults, especially women. In fact, over 15% of women are affected by adult acne. Furthermore, mask wearing isn’t helping as oily, combination and even dry skin covered all day has led to the emergence of “maskne”.

The holidays are going to look a little different this year. From family gatherings, to travel, to what people will be spending money on. Let’s talk beauty – the usual rush to the salon or stock up at Sephora on festive make-up and glam is taking a back seat to this year’s number-one in demand beauty accessory, beautiful, healthy-looking skin.
In times of uncertainly, the beauty industry has historically looked at what’s been termed “the lipstick index.” The “lipstick index” was coined during the 2001 recession by…
In a world post quarantine, patients are rushing to book treatments to make up for time spent away from their beloved aesthetic practices. Patients – whose skin goals for 2020 have been displaced – are searching for faster ways to achieve lasting results and making every appointment count.
