Look Your Best In A Mask
Your eyes are often the first feature that people look at. Now with masks, your eyes may be the only visible feature. Many people are investing in eye make-up, serums, lash extensions, brow planing to enhance their eyes to look their best while wearing a mask. But what if you are looking for other ways to improve the appearance of your eyes and upper face?
Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
Non-surgical rhinoplasty typically refers to the use of injectable fillers placed under the skin of the nose to modify its appearance. Various types of fillers may be used to correct nasal irregularities and asymmetries, camouflage a nasal hump, and augment other regions of the nose such as the bridge or tip of the nose. Dr. Hu discusses the pros, cons, side effects of “liquid rhinoplasty.”
Hu Knows Noses
Of all your facial features, your nose defines your identity the most. Your eyes, lips, cheeks, even forehead and chin frame the nose as it sits in the center of your face. Your nose provides information about your heritage and history. And so, even the slightest of changes to the nose can dramatically change your identity. Because of this, Dr. Hu is extremely sensitive to her patient's needs and desires with rhinoplasty.
Lovely Lips
Lips communicate information to the world about our emotions, willingness to engage socially and even our age. Upturned corners imply happiness. A smile is used as a greeting. Thinned pursed lips connote suppressed emotions, a shut door. Youthful lips are full and shapely. Whereas, aged lips are thin, deflated, and formless with sagging corners.
Chin & Neck Rejuvenation
There are various options to rejuvenate the neck and chin region. Procedures range from non-invasive forms such as Kybella which dissolves fat, CoolMini which freezes fat, or radiofrequency tightening of skin with ThermiTight to more invasive procedures such as liposuction, surgical neck lift, and laser resurfacing. Dr. Hu reviews them all here.
Summer Skin Care
The summer heat in Houston can be brutal, and the summer sun can be just as harmful to your skin. Dr. Hu discusses methods to protect the skin on your face this summer and how to look your best this summer season.
PRP Hair Restoration
Dr. Hu discusses how PRP is used for hair loss. PRP stands for Platelet Rich Plasma. When re-injected into the hair, it stimulates growth of blood vessels, repairs and regenerates damaged skin, and stimulates hair growth in dormant hair follicles.
