Facelift? Haha

Facelift? Haha

As aging occurs the cheeks slide downward and tissue begins to sag off of the jawline. Resulting in flattening of the apples of the cheek, deepening of nasolabial creases and jowls. A non-surgical intervention can be performed to lift the deep planes of the face with bio-compatible suture threads that dissolve over a year, yet leave lasting results by forming collagen.
Threadlift Injection Facelift performed by Devon with PDO Threads.

The Size of Your Lips

You want to keep them in proportion to the rest of your face. No overdoing it! Natural harmony is beautifully appealing.

You will also want to maintain the correct ratio from your upper to lower lip. In Caucasion females the ratio is 1.0 upper to 1.6 lower lip; for ethnic patients, this changes to a 1 to 1 ratio.

When looking at your profile, your upper lip should be protruding over your lower lip.

Personally, I find that my daily skin care routine provides an incredible opportunity to ground, center, and care for myself. Unless I’m in a big rush, it also acts as a zen-like activity, bringing me peace and calm at the start of my day.
.
And it turns out, I’m not the only one who feels better and more grounded via skin care. Per this Marie Claire article, a recent study found that “15 percent of women say they use skin care to relax.”
.
The author goes on to say, “Going through my ritual at the beginning and the end of each day is an uplifting meditation that gives me a feeling of purpose, satisfaction, and optimism. I’m doing something proactive, and I can literally see the glowing results.”
.
I couldn’t agree more, and frankly, in today’s COVID-19 climate, I’ll take any bit of calm, satisfaction, and normalcy I can get right now...
.
As a means of helping you ground into a healthy routine and keep your skin care optimized and on-point, I’m happy to announce that Veritas Bioactives is in stock and available for at-home delivery.
.
And, now through the end of the month, we’re offering a 15% discount off your next purchase.

In the European Union, 1,300 chemicals banned for use in cosmetics due to questions over their safety. Here in the U.S., as of this writing, the list of banned ingredients totals 11.
.
That means the powers that be aren’t going to protect you and I from harmful ingredients. The responsibility to source safe products, for ourselves and our family, falls squarely on our shoulders.
.
So where to start?
.
When I created my line of Veritas Bioactives skin care products, it was very important to me that all constituents work with the body. One of my company’s founding principles is that you should never have to sacrifice your health for your beauty.
.
Whether you choose to use Veritas Bioactives or not, I highly recommend that you educate yourself on the ingredients that have been proven to be harmful.
.
Now, more than ever, is the time to gain a basic understanding of product constituents so you can keep yourself and your family healthy.

Oily skin is sometimes seen as a negative. While too much oil can clog pores, having healthy and balanced skin means having an optimal amount of oil.
.
Sebaceous glands – the glands that produce an oil called “sebum” – are in every pore of your skin. It’s your sebum that keeps your skin and hair lubricated. More importantly, sebum is a critical part of your body’s defenses, providing a natural barrier against viruses and disease.
.
When you use skin care products that are made from health-positive ingredients, you help balance and optimize your body’s oil production.
.
Unfortunately, many skin care products on the market contain ingredients that can drastically strip your skin of this important oil. Harsh chemicals found in soaps and moisturizers can deplete our sebum, and all but demolish our skin’s natural defenses.
.
Examples of stripping ingredients to watch out for:
.
Sodium lauryl sulfates
Foaming agents used in nearly every over-the-counter beauty care product on the market. Common examples include cosmetics, shampoo, toothpaste, etc.
.
Triclosan
In 2016, it was banned from soap used in hospital settings, but in the personal cosmetics space, it’s still allowed.
.
Synthetic Fragrance
It may sound harmless enough, but the word "fragrance" can represent hundreds of chemicals, many of which can cause allergies, headaches, respiratory attacks, hormonal imbalance and more.

What's the big deal about skin?
.
From a biological standpoint, your skin is your first line of defense from the outside world. Think of your skin as your protective covering – a physical barrier that, when optimized, can purge toxins and fight infection and disease.
.
Many toxins get expelled via your pores. When your skin is healthy, your pores are clean and clear, allowing them to provide the perfect exit point. But when your pores are congested and blocked due to pollutants and chemicals, your ability to detoxify can be greatly impacted.
.
But your pores are just part of the picture.
.
Pathogens and viruses can cling to and sometimes colonize on your skin. That’s why proper cleaning and exfoliating is so important.
.
For your hands, washing for a minimum of 20 seconds is a great baseline strategy. For the rest of your skin – especially your face – cyclical exfoliation not only improves the look of your skin, it also helps rid your body of pathogens.

Simple as that!

Devon here... Rather than inundate you with more virus info, I'd like to offer something that will hopefully give you a little ease and peace of mind – It's a simple practice I’ve been employing to keep myself centered, focused, and grounded each day...

That practice?

*** Routine ***

Studies have proven that having a consistent routine can be an anchor. No matter what’s going on in your day, routines – be they morning practices, evening rituals, or both – can be a real comfort.

Why?

The certainty of a routine can help us to manage the uncertainty that life often throws our way. Coping with unpredictable periods of time can feel more doable when we have a little structure in place.

“Unpredictable” is a fairly understated way to describe the state of the world right now. So, if I may, I’d like to offer you some brief tips on what you can be doing to create some positive anchors in your life via routine...

✅ Go to Bed and Wake Up At The Same Time Every Day

While it’s true that many high achievers rise early in order to prepare for the day, the more important point is creating a consistent daily rise/rest window for yourself. I like to wake up at 6:00am every morning, and I’ll go to bed between 10 and 11pm. This gives me a little flex time in the evenings while providing a steady schedule pulse to my day-to-day.

✅ Make Your Bed

I thought this one was a little mundane when I first read about it, but it’s actually a powerhouse. Per the advice of Navy Seal Admiral William H. McCraven: “If you make your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task, and another, and another.”

✅ Recite Affirmations

Although it might sound a bit “New-Age-y,” affirmations are proven methods of self-improvement. Per clinical psychologist Dr. Carmen Harra says. "They raise the level of feel-good hormones and push our brains to form new clusters of 'positive thought' neurons."

I love using affirmations to reframe how I think about myself and the day to come. In fact, I believe affirmations to be a key component in helping me stay positive and deflect negative self-talk.

Some simple affirmations that you could use are:

👉 I will do great things today
👉 I am positive, healthy, and strong
👉 I am accomplishing great things in my life, and I am proud of me
👉 I love myself, I love who I am, and I love who I am becoming

The goal here is to affirm and visualize the things you want to happen (but say them in the present tense.) As you focus on these things, you begin to believe that you can and will achieve them..

✅ Stick to A Personal/Beauty Care Regimen
Personally, I find that my daily skin care routine provides an incredible opportunity to ground, center, and care for myself. Unless I’m in a big rush, it also acts as a zen-like activity, bringing me peace and calm at the start of my day.

And it turns out, I’m not the only one who feels better and more grounded via skin care. Per Marie Claire Magazine, a recent study found that “15 percent of women say they use skin care to relax.”

The author goes on to say, “Going through my ritual at the beginning and the end of each day is an uplifting meditation that gives me a feeling of purpose, satisfaction, and optimism. I’m doing something proactive, and I can literally see the glowing results.”

I couldn’t agree more, and frankly, in today’s COVID-19 climate, I’ll take any bit of calm, satisfaction, and normalcy I can get right now.

To further ensure your safety, we’ve developed a new appointment protocol, effective immediately:
.
👉 Our doors will remain locked during business hours to control foot traffic
.
👉 When you arrive for your appointment, please knock and/or call us
.
👉 You technician will meet you outside to quickly take your temperature
.
👉 Once your temp is approved, you may come inside for your service
.
👉 If there are patients in the waiting room, the check out process will be performed in your treatment room
.
These precautions are for everyone’s well-being. Thank you in advance for your flexibility on this matter, and we look forward to seeing you soon!

As a practitioner, a small business owner, and a mother, I wanted to take this opportunity to share what we’re doing to ensure your safety.

First, to confirm:
Our doors will remain open.

Second, if you are a patient with concerns about your immune system:
See our in-home options below

Veritas Backstage is a small boutique by design. Unlike other businesses, the total traffic in and out of the clinic on a daily basis (including the employees) is under 50 people.

But our size is certainly not the only precaution we’re taking.

WHAT WE HAVE ALWAYS DONE

🔹 Daily cleaning of our spaces and tools. Anything we touch, and all of our work spaces get washed and sanitized. CaviCide™, a medical grade disinfectant effective against viruses, bacteria, and fungi, is our cleaner of choice.

🔹 All sheets and towels are laundered with chlorine bleach

🔹 All single-use items such as pads, gause, needles (of course!), and gloves are properly disposed after each use.

🔹 Employees are required to wash their hands for a minimum of 20 seconds before and after each service (and of course, after they’ve eaten or used the restroom

ADDITIONAL STEPS WE ARE TAKING

🔹 For patients with concerns about the resilience of their immune system – If you’d like to continue with services like Botox, Dysport or other injectables, Patty is scheduling house calls on a limited basis. Please contact the shop for more details.

🔹 We are extending our daily cleaning to now include frequently touched items such as phones (personal and business), all k***s and handles, computers, ipads, and transaction equipment.

🔹 More alcohol-based hand sanitizer, effective at killing viruses and bacteria, is now available throughout the space for employee and client usage.

🔹 If a team member is unwell, or is caring for a family member who is unwell, we are asking them to stay home.

🔹 We are encouraging our clients to stay home if they are feeling at all unwell. We will be happy to reschedule any appointment, even with late notice. Please be considerate, smart, and safe!

Lastly, as a service to you, I’ll be emailing over the next few days to advise on additional steps you can take to bolster your health and peace of mind during these uncertain times.

Please know: We care deeply about your health and well-being, now and always. And at Backstage, we are happy to continue to be a place of safe and clean respite, calm, and rejuvenation.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out by phone or email.

We’re all in this together, and we’re here to support you
