Science of Beauty

I had a baby this year, and this has been on my mind a lot lately, because my son was born with neck lines. And although his mother might have, he certainly did not spend 9 months in my womb looking down at a phone.

“Tech neck” is a marketing term and I’m not buying it. These lines are natural and functional. Your neck literally needs to move up and down and those creases are how it does that. So no, putting your phone down is not going to make them disappear.

What actually happens is that your skin starts to lose collagen and laxity, so the skin in that area begins to drop, and lines that were always there suddenly become more noticeable.

The way we treat it is with a combination approach, a biostimulator to restore structure and stimulate collagen in the deeper layers, alongside something superficial like retinol, microneedling or a chemical peel to improve the skin quality on top.

What we don’t do is just fill in the lines with filler without addressing the underlying laxity.

Let’s talk about Baby Botox.

Less is more, when it’s adequate.

Baby botox is mostly a marketing term, not a medical one. and sometimes “just a little” means coming back more often, spending more money, and still not getting the result you were after. Worst case scenario, repeated exposure over time can contribute to resistance to its protective proteins in the long term.

Optimal dosage is ideal; too little and the muscle isn’t relaxed enough to actually change anything. We’re not trying to talk you into more, we’re just trying to get you the result you came in for.

We will always listen to your goals and work with you, but trust us when it comes to units. That’s where us cooks thrive in the kitchen!
