The dreaded butt-chin complication after chin tox - it’s totally treatable and avoidable.

This patient had been treated elsewhere, but hated how it left her chin.

The goal of treating the chin is to keep it smooth, minimize dimpling and soften the chin crease.

Pro tip: Notice how her mouth turns down when she frowns? The mentalis and DAO work in opposition to each other. The best results are achieved when both are treated.

Every face moves differently, and sometimes the smallest adjustments in placement can make a big difference in the result.

The glam side of aesthetics gets a lot of attention.

The reality? Most of us are squeezing our own treatments in between patients, answering messages, and eating lunch whenever we remember.

This combo: a collagen-stimulating filler paired with resurfacing laser to improve firmness, elasticity, and texture.

Perks of the job 🫶🏻

One of the things I hear the most is, “My skin looks terrible.”

Most of the time, it doesn’t. It looks like skin. 😅

I think we’ve spent so much time looking at filtered faces that we’ve started believing healthy skin should have no pores, no texture, and no movement.

That’s not realistic, and that shouldn’t be the goal.

People don’t experience your face through a smoothing filter or a zoomed-in front camera. They see you in conversation, in natural light, when you laugh, when you smile, when you tell a story.

That’s the version of you that matters.
My job isn’t to erase every pore or line. It’s to help your skin be as healthy as it can be while still looking like you.

People are always surprised when I tell them they don’t need as much as they thought.

That doesn’t mean there’s nothing we can do.

It just means there’s usually a smarter way to get there.

Which slide resonated with you most?

The internet has made everything feel dangerous. 😅

One day it’s sunscreen.

The next day it’s Botox.

Then it’s filler.

Then it’s “medical-grade skincare is a scam.”

It gets exhausting trying to separate evidence from engagement.

Credit to Kayla | Functional Nutrition & Strength Coach for sharing such an honest perspective.

The internet rewards controversy. The more shocking the claim, the more it spreads.

But science doesn’t work that way.

We know UV exposure causes premature skin aging and increases the risk of skin cancer. 🚨

We know a tan isn’t healthy. It’s your skin responding to UV damage.

And decades of research continue to support sunscreen as one of the best ways to protect your skin.

I’ll always choose evidence over engagement.

What are your thoughts on the sunscreen debate? 🧴

Some people will read this list and immediately unfollow.

Others will book a consultation.

I’m okay with both 💉

Everyone has a take on facial changes after weight loss.

Here’s mine.

Weight loss can absolutely change your face, but not everyone needs filler. The goal isn’t to replace every ounce of lost volume. It’s understanding what actually changed and choosing the right treatment at the right time throughout the journey.

Sometimes that’s skincare. Sometimes it’s collagen stimulation. Sometimes it’s laser resurfacing. Sometimes it’s filler. The right answer depends on the face in front of you.

What changes have you noticed after weight loss?

There are the milestones you plan for… and then there are the ones you quietly celebrate when you catch yourself in the mirror 😅

And yes, this is not serious. Don’t @ me in the comments.

Some questions definitely have a season☀️

Right now, a lot of the conversation is less “What should I get?” and more “When should I do it?” Botox before vacation? Laser now or later? When do we start addressing summer pigment? How early is too early to think about holiday events?

Not everything needs to happen right now, but having a plan means we’re not trying to cram six months of skin goals into the week before Thanksgiving.

What questions do you have?

FIFA had us outside, yelling at screens, learning player names we didn’t know a month ago 😂⚽️

Honestly? A great era.

One last World Cup victory lap… aesthetics edition.

Because nothing says confidence like the internet convincing you what your face needs after three videos and one comment.
