    Fact or Fiction

    Like a lot of things, there are some common myths about what we do here at the H2T Skin and Laser Center, and we thought that we would spend our time in today's episode talking about some of these myths and addressing what is fact and what is fiction! Listen in as Matt goes through a fun skin care fact vs. fiction quiz. He addresses topics such as whether or not someone will no longer look like themselves after a dermal filler, explaining what the actual goal of the process is. He also explains whether or not men should be moisturizing, whether or not anyone can get botox, if filler will eventually lead to wrinkly skin after it wears off, how to get started on stimulating collagen, what the SPF number of a sunscreen product mean, and so, so much more! It's so important to us that we take care of our skin because it is our largest organ and protects us from so much, and it's never too late to start. That's why it's important that we are well informed about procedures, so we hope that this episode is helpful for you!

    Best Results

    At the H2T Skin and Laser Center, we obviously value optimal results when it comes to the various procedures that we offer, so we thought that we would talk today about what "best results" look like when it comes to a couple of the procedures that we offer. Beginning with facial rebalancing, we detail what that is and why it has become more necessary over the last decade or so. We discuss how the heart of the problem is sometimes surprising to our clients because they don't initially recognize that as the issue. It's really important in certain circumstances, however, to trust your provider, and we talk about how we encourage clients to not be concerned about the number of syringes used because we, after all, know how many are needed to achieve the best results. We also discuss botox and how some clients similarly try to limit providers to a certain number of units when that isn't going to be enough for them to be happy with their results. Thanks so much for listening, and be sure to stay tuned to the end this week because we have a couple of exciting announcements!   Time Stamps [0:43] - We are talking about how we treat our patients and what optimal results are. [1:39] - Matt discusses dermal fillers and how the choices have grown in numbers. [3:16] - What is facial rebalancing? [5:29] - Why is focusing treatment on the jaw important? [7:46] - Matt details the facial rebalancing process. [10:22] - Pricing per syringe worked against the company. [14:03] - Kathleen shifts the conversation toward botox. [15:48] - Matt explains what is meant by optimal results. [18:31] - Kathleen talks about how unnatural results can be unintentional. [21:59] - Hear about an upcoming product that Matt is really excited about!   Resources H2T Skin and Laser Center - Website H2T Skin and Laser Center - Instagram Page Brenda's Transformation from Instagram
