Our skin transforms as we age. As we grow older, our skin becomes thinner, drier, and less elastic, and it has more wrinkles. When our skin loses collagen, it also loses elasticity and moisture. If you’ve noticed that your skin is sagging, explore how to tighten skin. Collagen is sensitive to heat, making it very […]

Wrinkles are typically smoothed away using one of two products: fillers or inhibitors (neurotoxins). As you might have guessed, fillers add volume and reshape the face by filling out the space below the wrinkle. Inhibitors, on the other hand, target the muscles that have caused the wrinkles, weakening them so that they don’t move as […]

Exfoliation—removing dead cells from the skin’s outermost layer—is a great way to keep your skin looking fresh and radiant. This comes in many methods, from gentle scrubs you can pick up at the drugstore to more intensive treatments you undergo at the doctor’s office.

Young people, you might be surprised to learn, can also develop age spots if they spend […]

However, some people also sweat excessively at unpredictable times, for example, on a cool spring evening or while working in an air-conditioned office.

Although milia are small, they can be immensely frustrating. These tiny, white bumps look like minor but long-lasting pimples that never reach the surface. What causes these minuscule bumps?

Unless you have been living under a rock (in which case, you have no reason to worry about the sun!), you know that sunlight can damage your skin in numerous ways. It can cause premature aging, sunspots, fine lines, wrinkles, and even skin cancer. Using a tanning bed isn’t any less harmful. In fact, according […]
