2020 Beauty Trends: New fillers, new skin tighteners ahead in forecast

by

[ABC 6 Action News: 1/7/2020]

Cherry Hill, NJ Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Steven Davis of Davis CPS discusses 2020 beauty trends. Dr. Davis predicts that 2020 is the year that the unnatural look fades away.

Dr. Davis says surgical techniques are more refined and more products are coming on the market. He expects a new generation of fillers, created for specific spots like the chin, jawline, or hollows at the temple.

These fillers will go closer to the bone to support from underneath, rather than just plumping the skin.

For more on this topic, Dr. Davis addresses 2020 Beauty Trends in his latest podcast: The Plastic Surgery Revolution.

Can I Remove My Fillers Once I Get Them?

by

You spent months saving, consulting with everyone in your inner circle, and finding just the right board-certified plastic surgeon. And now, within just a few minutes and a couple relatively painless injections, you’ve got the succulent lips you’ve been pining after since you saw Scarlett Johansson’s red-carpet photos last summer.

But what if, days later, you decide they’re not quite the fit you’d hoped they’d be? Turns out, it’s not a big deal because, tempted as you were to go with a permanent or semi-permanent filler, you opted for the temporary hyaluronic acid filler. And hyaluronic acid filler can be removed—dissolved, technically speaking—with another injection, called hyaluronidase. (The same, unfortunately, can’t be said of permanent or semi-permanent fillers.)

Can I Remove My Fillers Once I Get Them?

Hyaluronidase is a naturally-occurring enzyme that we all have in us. In commercial form, it’s a liquid that, once it’s injected under the skin, dissolves hyaluronic acid within a few hours. Hyaluronic acid is the gel that makes up the most commonly used fillers, including Restylane and Juvéderm. By breaking down the hyaluronic acid, hyaluronidase effectively reverses the results of those fillers. And this applies to all hyaluronic acid fillers, not just lip injections.

It’ll start to work immediately, and take anywhere from a day to two days to completely dissolve the filler.

A word of warning about hyaluronidase if you’re allergic to bees, or think you may be: The enzyme also features prominently in bee venom. So, if you’re allergic to bees, you could also have an allergic reaction to hyaluronidase. To be certain, ask your doctor to perform a patch test to check for any redness or swelling.

While many claim to have a deft touch when it comes to injecting fillers, few actually do. Which makes it all the more important to not only seek out a board-certified plastic surgeon to do your lip injections but also one who has extensive experience administering the product. Even then, you may like your new lips but think they look overly full. In which case, once the filler’s reversed, new filler can be injected incrementally in smaller amounts to achieve more natural-looking, full lips.

5 Tips to Help Recover a “Hangover Face”

by

With the holiday season in full swing, it’s no secret how much celebrations are taking place. If you’re like everyone else, a long night of partying can take a lot out of you – and we’re not just talking in terms of headaches. Do you struggle with the appearance of a “hangover face?” You’re not alone. Whether it’s puffy eyes or dry skin, the look of a hangover can often be just as rough as they feel.

To finish off the week, Dr. Steven Davis sits down to cover 5 tips for you to help recover a “hangover face.” These tips range from the importance of taking off your makeup all the way to the possibilities of chamomile tea.

Our team would like to wish everyone a happy & healthy holiday season! Here at Davis Cosmetic Plastic Surgery in Cherry Hill, NJ, we’re always here to help you look & feel your best.

[Transcript]

Hi everyone, it’s the holiday season, and I wanted to talk about something that’s really interesting because I hear about it all the time after you’ve gone out drinking and after you’ve gone out and had a great time at parties and things, and that’s what do you do with the look that you get after you’ve been out all night having a great time?

What do you do with that hangover face? And I’ve got five tips that’ll help you with that hangover face. So here we go with number one. Definitely make sure you’re taking off your makeup before you go to bed that night. It may be a little cumbersome because you may be getting in late and you may not feel like doing it but I can guarantee you it’s a very good idea just to take it off as quickly as you can and then just go to bed.

But if you can do something in addition to that, like put some sort of a refreshing mask on your face, it’s gonna help. Because the next thing is, which is number two, you gotta rehydrate. Alcohol really does a number on dehydrating your whole body. But, in addition to that, it also does dehydrate your skin.

So you really want to make sure that you’re drinking a lot of fluids but some sort of a hyaluronic acid mask, or something like that, that will actually bring some moisture back into your skin is a great idea.

Number three is trying to do your best to massage your face when you get up in the morning. Now, it sounds a little nutty about massaging your face, but I know there’s a lot of products out on the market. One’s called a jade roller and others are just, you can just use a real good piece of ice cube and then just use that to massage around your eyes and other places where you just feel puffy.

But the concept here is you’re trying to shrink down dilated blood vessels that most likely do occur after a lot of alcohol consumption ’cause alcohol does dilate blood vessels. So either putting your face on ice or just massaging to get some lymphatic drainage happening to your face is a really good thing.

Number four, one of the best things that we found over all the years to help puffiness around the eyes is chamomile tea. So, if you can, when you get up in the morning, brew some chamomile tea, let it cool off a minute, and then put one tea bag on each eye for about 10 minutes. That’s also gonna do a great job in trying to just shrink down a lot of the swelling that you’re gonna see in your eyes.

It’s also a great trick to do, even if you weren’t out drinking, you just wake up and you feel like your eyes just look puffy. And the fifth thing that I think really does play a role in just overall skin health is to try to exfoliate your skin.

So what I mean by that is there are so many different scrubs and different kinds of ways of getting your skin to get exfoliated and I think one of the things that we see is that if you allow old, dead, dry skin cells to just hang out on your skin for a long period of time, it prevents the good cells that are underneath from really coming to the surface.

So just like when we go to get a haircut and they trim the ends of your hair so that your hair grows better, very similarly, if you can get that extra excess amount of old, dead, dry, flaky skin off, it’ll actually promote better skin to come to the surface.

There you have it. That’s five ways of making sure that you can do your best to make that after party look look better. So, it’s the hangover face episode. Have a great, safe holiday and we’ll talk to you again next time.
