Cold Feet Before Botox

When the plastic surgeon asked Julia who she wanted to look like when her bandages came off, she thought he was attempting to be funny.

To her dismay, he wasn’t. It could have been his saving grace.... a good bedside manner was something Julia liked in a doctor.

She politely dismissed herself from the pre-surgery consultation and immediately called me.

I asked her why she went from one extreme to the other for Facial Rejuvenation. 

She said she always heard her late mother's voice, when her own inner voice was trying to talk to her, and she couldn’t quite understand what it was saying.

“And what did you hear your mother say to you?” I asked Julia.

She said, “Always be yourself!”

I had to smile at her even if it was over the phone. I immediately loved Julia and her mother.

As a kid, I was a bit “nutsie” and always wanted to be liked by the more popular girls who were liked by everyone.

Every time I’d come home with a new persona, my mother would say, “just be yourself!”

It took me a whole lifetime to understand there is only one you, and trying to be like or look like someone else makes you a poor imitation of the person you’re trying to be or look like.

So here we are, at that time of life when the choices for Julia wanting to look Ageless are multiple. 

To be honest, I continue to be amazed with all of the “latest” in anti-aging treatments...

We can have more procedures than we can imagine.

And who do we look to for advice on what to do?  

Celebrities who we could never, ever look like and won’t because we aren’t them?

Or…plastic surgeons and med spas, which give us pulled, plumped, petrified faces that are trending and make everyone look alike? 

How sad.

In Julia’s and my mom’s wisdom, we need to be and look like ourselves. Yes, to look and be the best we can look at every age in life and to be true to ourselves! Thanks, Mom.

That’s something I’ve lived by my entire life.  It’s also my  #1 priority when helping my clients become ageless and beautiful. 
 
I don’t recommend botox, filler, and artificial face lifts because it’s my STRONG BELIEF that artificial beauty is only temporary beauty.
