Stress and our appearance

Lately many people have been under tremendous stress. One sees it in their faces and on their skin. Many women come in with very blotchy skin, with more age spots and pigmentation changes. Many have more wrinkles because of involuntary teeth clenching or frowning due to stress. Many have dry skin and darker circles under their eyes. Many just look drawn and tired. At times like these just a mere lipstick will not do the trick. It is good to see someone who can evaluate your skin and perhaps give you the appropriate cream, or do the appropriate treatment which will improve the aging looking skin. In my office today we do much more skin care than ever before, because people are stressed more than ever before. Even if people have a facelift, the skin itself needs additional care. The care though must be appropriate for that person. Therefore, one must see a professional before spending money on stuff that does not work and may cause more breakouts. Fraxel which is a noninvasive laser treatment is very good for many people, but some may even want the CO2 fraxel laser which has more downtime but is very effective in skin tightening and getting rid of unwanted blemishes. It would be good to get evaluated and treated. Many fillers are also helpful if given in appropriate amounts in the appropriate places. One must know what filler will be best for the patient as all are different. So not everything out there is for everyone and not everyone is for all that is out there. Professional evaluation of your skin is very important. So come in and reduce the evidence of stress. It may make you more attractive and relaxed looking if you must look for the position you want.
