Don’t Let your Lipstick Show your Age!

A lip augmentation from our Federal Way filler is a good way to combat this effect, of course, but there are also some simple ways to work your lipstick such that you can minimize the appearance of age all by yourself.

Think that our Tacoma Botox clinic is just for women? This is getting less and less true all the time. Throughout the past decade, the call for cosmetic treatments among men has skyrocketed as an increasing number of professional men are discovering a need to look younger that matches their masculine sensibilities. For most men, the name of the game is achieving that well-rested, just-came-back-from-vacation look. They reach middle age and find themselves in competition with younger professionals who, while...

You Can’t Spell “Age” without AGE

Your skin has enemies all over the place. It’s not just smoke and sunlight that can bring on another trip to our Tacoma botox clinic; you can also be prematurely aging your face with the foods you eat. Some foods contain sugars that attach to proteins in your skin to produce Advanced Glycation Endproducts, or AGE’s, which are just as unfortunate as the acronym suggests. These AGE’s rob your skin of its flexibility, bringing on a dullness and brittleness that...

The Beauty Secrets of the Stars

Our Tacoma botox clinic can help you to look your best, but ultimately a big part of beauty is how you feel on the inside. Too many women are haunted by an undue shame about their appearance, comparing their faces to the ones they see on the red carpet and wondering why they seem to be aging more than the big stars of today.

“Smoker’s Face”

Our Tacoma Botox clinic has two high priorities: your appearance and your safety. It is therefore that we wish to not only assure you of the safety of Botox, which has historically shown no real risk when professionally applied to healthy adults, but also caution you against the real dangers to your health and appearance.

Botox’s Long History of Great Clinical Results

The authors found that frown lines and crow’s feet are especially responsive to Botox treatment; indeed, they write that chemodenervation (i.e. Botox injections)...
