Microneedling: How To Get Rid of Wrinkles and Scars
Like the rest of your body, your skin accumulates damage over the years from environmental toxins and bad habits like smoking or a poor diet. You might have visible scars on your face… or skin that’s been left with pits and pocks from childhood chicken pox or acne.
If you go to a plastic surgeon or a dermatologist, they’ll likely suggest an invasive and painful procedure with a long recovery.
But I’m here to tell you that you don’t need a facelift if you want to look younger. And you don’t need a chemical peel to get smoother skin.
How To Help Restore Your Skin

Confessions of a Female Plastic Surgeon
Image Source
Celebrities are doing it, your co-workers are doing it, and even your inner circle is doing it. Your besties, however, are loath to admit they've had some "work" done. Is your colleague or friend looking a little younger these days? Or is that booty of theirs seeming just a little bit tighter all of a sudden?

They've had something done - a bit of Botox, some liposuction, or maybe a facelift -- even if they vehemently deny it. According to Aviva Preminger, MD, a NYC female plastic surgeon, she's seen it all.

We Can Do Better
I am lucky. Choosing a creative life and having the opportunity to do satisfying work that is sometimes meaningful is a blessed existence and worth the price paid in the subsequent challenges of public life.
Sometimes it means resigning to humiliation, and other times, understanding when silence perpetuates a bigger problem.
In October 2014, a tabloid newspaper article reported that I'd likely had surgery to alter my eyes.
It didn't matter; just one more story in the massive smut pile generated every day by the tabloid press and fueled by exploitative headlines and folks who practice cowardly cruelty from their anonymo...

This Is What Rio ’s Terrible Pollution Looks Like On the Ground
Forget about the floating tires. You can spot those in the water even in clean cities around the world. What gobsmacks you as you approach a canal near the Rio international airport, a body of water that flows into the city’s Guanabara Bay – home of the 2016 Olympics sailing venue — is the smell. It’s a gaseous stench: inhale it at your stomach’s own risk. There’s also the sludge, so thick you slip on it. And the sheer mass of stuff: Christmas ornaments, milk cartons, cookie packaging, clothes sitting in the stew. Then there are all the insidious things you can’t see.
Why is Guanab...
