My poor friend Claudia. I am doing microneedling on her neck and chest and the lidocaine we used to number here is not working on her. I was supposed to bring down our BLT (Benzocaine/Lidocaine/Tetracaine) to our office and I forgot. I told Claudia she could kill me after I was done with her treatment…....

As we age we continuously lose collagen at a rate of about 1% per year. Between the ages of 20 and 40, we can expect the skin’s collagen to diminish by up to 50%. The result is what we lose in fullness we gain in wrinkles. Great, right!? But it is never too late to…...
