You got Botox!…I did NOT!
Before and After photos are so effective…it’s that third party validation that makes all the difference, right? Well, I wanted to share with you my most recent “before” and “after”. Once again, it’s of myself. It’s not that I am so vain as to always show photos of myself…seriously, it’s that I really only offer/carry products in my studio/boutique that I can stand behind, and that I know, from experience, really and truly WORK!
This photo shows my “before” and “after” after one round of Rodan and Fields’ Acute Care for Expression Lines. One round = one month of use, which is really only every third night. You see, you apply the clear patches to your problem area that you are addressing every third night. The patches are barely visible once applied, and make sure you only apply them to clean skin…i.e. “nothing comes between you and your patches”. Sleep in the patches overnight and remove them in the AM. You will see a visible difference, and clinical studies show that over time, the Acute Care patches continue to reduce the depth of expression line wrinkles for up to 12 weeks! No wonder Forbes rated the patches as one of 2014’s most innovative beauty products.
You can see here that the skin around my eyes is visibly lifted, less red, and has been left with fewer wrinkles. All this without Botox or Restylane…that is, NO NEEDLE REQUIRED! The patches contain scores of perfectly formed cones that contain hyaluronic acid (something your body naturally makes but begins to slow down in production in your 20’s). The cones melt into your wrinkles overnight, practically allowing you to “sleep away” your wrinkles!
Did I ever tell you the story of when I got filler done to my lower eye socket area as well as Botox on my crow’s feet? (By the way, “filler”, aka Restylane, consists of hyaluronic acid.) It was 2012 and I was prepping months ahead for my 30th college reunion. I had the deed done, but no one really noticed. That is until I went to visit my daughter at her boarding school. I waited till her last class finished and was standing around with her friends, when she came up to me. I had not seen her for months. The VERY FIRST WORDS OUT OF HER MOUTH? “YOU GOT BOTOX!” Well, of course, I was shocked. And when one is shocked, one lies. OF COURSE!
“I did not!”, I exclaimed. I mean…come on! I was on the spot, in front of a lot of young, impressionable ladies. I had not prepared a good answer!
Well, unable to leave that lie between us, I fessed up the next day. “How did you know?”, I asked. “Your smile just doesn’t look the same.”, my daughter said. From that point onward, I decided to delay the use of needles as long as I could…thank goodness for ACUTE CARE. Now, I can fill a wrinkle, in my sleep, no needle required!
