Phrases like “50 is the new 30” are popular these days but is there basis in fact? Dr. Bass discusses how lifestyle changes in the past few decades and the ascendance of non-surgical techniques in plastic surgery –often termed aesthetic medicine –have transformed how we look at a given age. These changes have also transformed our expectations of how long we will be able to stay looking young. Botox, injectable fillers like Restylane and Juvederm, energy based devices like lasers and advances in skin care (cosmeceutical and pharmaceutical skin products) comprise the bulk of what’s been happening in aesthetic medicine. Dr. Bass discusses the role of each, what age is a good time to start and what a combined program of care can produce.
