Beauty and Wellness Tips That Slow Aging (According to a Facial Plastic Surgeon) | EP207
A board-certified facial plastic surgeon pulls back the curtain on modern aesthetics with beauty and wellness tips that cut through viral trends and explain what helps your skin age well. In this episode, Amy Sherman talks with Dr. Ruslan Zhuravsky about skincare tips, beauty tips, and the difference between thoughtful maintenance and chasing a look that was never meant for your face.
You’ll hear beauty and wellness tips on daily routines, sun protection, and realistic skincare product recommendations and beauty product recommendations that support long-term skin health. Dr. Ruslan explains how microneedling, growth factors, exosomes, and PDRN fit into a modern treatment plan and why laser skin resurfacing can help with texture and tone, though it does not solve every concern.
The conversation also covers Botox, filler, and Sculptra, including when they work well and when they are used for the wrong problem. If you’ve ever wondered why some results look natural while others look overdone, this episode makes that easier to understand.
Amy and Dr. Ruslan also break down facial plastic surgery options like a facelift, SMAS facelift, and deep plane facelift so listeners can better understand what these procedures actually do. These beauty and wellness tips give listeners a clearer way to evaluate treatments, products, and aesthetic decisions before committing to anything.
