Frowning and facial expressions over time can also result in the same loss of elasticity.

The problem is that 99.9% of them do not work at all or minimally at best! We asked thousands of dermatologists and surgeons what the best remedies were other than plastic surgery.

Fat. It’s part of the human condition. It accumulates under our skin, especially as we get older, right where we don’t want it.

But sometimes even the high-power gym types, the folks who work out all the time, simply can’t get rid of those lumpy, fatty areas. Many of my patients are asking me about a new treatment they’re hearing about, called “Smart Lipo.”
