1. Celebrity Skin Care
If you pay attention to the media, you notice the Kardashians are in the spotlight for the aesthetics industry. All over social media, celebrities are the face of what is hot in aesthetics. All the Kardashians have received cosmetic work, but many consumers cannot tell exactly what has been done. Some celebrities proudly claim they received work (such as Gwyneth Paltrow), while others are more reluctant to admit except in time (Kylie Jenner about her infamous lip injections). Whether the celebrities feel the need to hide or share their cosmetic work, what is undeniable is the love the Hollywood crowd has for cosmetic procedures. If you are after the Hollywood look, you might look into a few procedures yourself. What do the elite get done?
Popularized by celebrities such as Kylie Jenner, lip injections have risen to prominence due to their visibility on social media. Lip injections are composed of hyaluronic acid gel that helps plump and support the skin. Hyaluronic acid helps to retain water and provide cushioning; popular hyaluronic acid lines like Restylane and Juvederm can smooth the lip lines and add volume for a prettier pout. While most celebrities eschew a larger-than-life lip appearance, even-proportioned, full-sized lips never go out of style. Transparency around receiving your own cosmetic procedures to replicate the look has increased as people crave to replicate the same look the Kardashians have.
2. Laser Resurfacing
If you want to get a procedure that can smooth an uneven complexion and make it more even-toned with minimal downtime, laser resurfacing is game. Celebrities may not have time for more invasive procedures such as chemical peels, opting instead to do laser resurfacing for a quicker rejuvenation. Moments in the spotlight can occur during a walk to the coffee shop or a casual lunch date, so maintaining a pristine, proper appearance following a procedure is key. While chemical peels produce fantastic results including a decrease in fine lines and wrinkles, they are not ideal for candidates who cannot afford to look out of shape for even a few days in a row. Peeling is integral to the results a chemical peel produces, so laser resurfacing is the preferable option. With this procedure, a little pinkness is a typical side effect.
3. Laser Hair Removal
With all the traveling celebrities do, as well as media demands on their time, they often find that laser hair removal is the best of time-consuming options to shorten their routines. Plus, it has been a demand of the industry to have a “clean,” hair-free appearance, especially in areas like the armpits and arms. While there is nothing wrong with body hair, celebrities find it easier to get the series of laser hair removal treatments. After they receive the initial treatments, they can wait for the hair to grow back for a touch-up–sometimes as late as a year later. The amount of time in the shower you can save can help you prioritize more important activities, a benefit most celebrities may need.
One of the most popular and acclaimed cosmetic treatments, Botox Cosmetic injections are a mainstay among celebrities. They simply help celebrities receive a smoother, less-wrinkled appearance. With pressures on women to maintain a high level of appearance, and the imperative on male celebrities to look good on camera, Botox can help the elite focus on their roles–not on the way their foreheads wrinkle with certain expressions. This treatment is one of the most common-sense components of the Hollywood look; why opt for wrinkles when you can create a smoother look?
