New! SkinBetter Biorewind
Glycation is a process where excess sugar molecules bind to proteins in the body, leading to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) that can damage tissues and accelerate aging, particularly by affecting skin proteins like collagen and elastin. This damage results in the loss of skin’s firmness, elasticity, and overall youthful appearance. SkinBetter’s Biorewind Complex specifically targets the visible signs of aging caused by glycation, helping to promote healthier, more resilient skin while improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Fix the Pluck-Up
Overplucked?
Brow hair transplants are having a major moment—and for good reason. They offer a natural, long-lasting solution to sparse or uneven brows caused by overplucking, aging, or genetics. Using your own hair, this technique restores fullness and shape, giving you the brows you’ve always wanted—no pencils, powders, or microblading required!
