Although we are a cosmetic surgery practice, heart health is very important to us here at Southern Surgical Arts. Many of our patients are women, so the prevention of cardiac disease is a cause that is near and dear to our hearts. Additionally, all of us have been touched by heart disease in one way or another—whether through a friend or family member or personally. That’s why we are once again partnering with the American Heart Association (AHA) during Go Red for Women Month to help educate women on how they can reduce their risk of heart disease.

Laughter may be good for the soul, but it’s not always so beneficial for our faces. As you age, collagen and elastin in the nasolabial folds begins to break down, eventually leaving lines around the nose and mouth that mimic the creases made when smiling. Laugh lines are also evident at the corners of your eyes. At first you may only see these tell-tale eye creases when smiling and laughing, but over time they will be present regardless of your facial expression. While everyone loves a bright smile and a happy expression, it can be distressing to develop lines that don’t reflect how youthful you feel on the inside.
If your laugh lines have you down, keep smiling! There are several ways to improve the look of existing lines and prevent new lines from cropping up—or at least slow down their development—without a face lift.

Summer flew by and now the holidays are just around the corner. Before we know it, it will be time for holiday shopping, dinners, and parties, not to mention endless rounds of family photos and maybe even a few festive selfies. While it’s fun to look back over photos from previous years, it can also be a reminder of changes we don’t always enjoy seeing.
