How come celebs are looking younger for longer?

Thanks to a steady diet of lasers, lights, facials and needles, middle-aged celebs look younger than ever. You might say say, ‘I work out. I’m vegan. I don’t drink alcohol. I drink lots of water. Why do these actresses still look so much better than I do?’ And I can tell you, because we know their secret: Anyone who looks like that and says she hasn’t done any kind of enhancement isn’t telling the truth.”

That’s not really news, but in the last decade, the “enhancement” game has changed. A 40-something actress might not be going under the knife for a major overhaul, but chances are she is doling out for frequent minor tune-ups, which can be even more effective at stopping the clock. So when Lopez took to Twitter last year to denounce claims that she’s “had plastic surgery of any kind,” she might well have been telling the truth. The fact is, with the nonsurgical treatments available now, she hasn’t had to.


Still, that’s not to say that the quest to remain 33 forever is a walk in the park; it’s more like a marathon. To “mature” like a celebrity requires a degree of commitment, in terms of both money and time, not for an unnatural and odd looking transformation, but just to look like the best version of themselves.

For some perspective on how our perception of aging has changed, consider the following: Sandra Bullock, 50, has never looked better. Conversely, Ann B. Davis, the recently deceased actress who played Alice, the matronly housekeeper, on The Brady Bunch, was just 42 when she was cast on the show. Jean Stapleton was roughly the same age as Julia Roberts is now (47) during the first season of All in the Family, and Sally Field was 42 when she played Roberts’s mother in Steel Magnolias.

Part of this shift is due to the fact that our culture is allowing women to be sexy and youthful into their 40s, 50s, and 60s without judgment. The seismic change in how women in the spotlight age has less to do with society than it does skincare: Actresses in their 40s today were part of the first generation to commit to sunscreen and Retin-A in their 20s. Apparently, if you want to look good when you are 44, you need to start working at it when you are 24—or younger.

At skinpossible we make sure our patients of any age understand the value of a good skincare routine, facials, lasers, lights, ultrasound and injections. If you want to look great longer you aren’t just in it for a quick fix. You need to understand that your’re starting a cycle of maintenance. There’s no such thing as planting a garden that doesn’t need weeding and at skinpossible we do have the best, top in class weeding in Calgary.

Among the more effective weed killers available is Botox, the neurotoxin that some derms are now injecting well before deep wrinkles show up. We use it in the whole face, and do it lightly, so you retain expressions but don’t have lines at rest, If the lines are still deeper than what patients want, We’ll inject a bit of filler to balance. As for undereye filler, is better not to wait until the hollows are bad to fix them. it is better sooner rather than later.

Injectables are still the cosmetic indulgence that everyone likes to deny. But the truth is that people are still filling up, and doing so frequently. It’s just harder to discern with the urge of new techniques. At skinpossible you can be sure you will still looking natural...Only better. 

You don't need to be famous to look great at any age, you only need to know their secrets. Now you do!

Some of the most dramatic advancements in skincare, however, have been in the realm of tightening and firming. Ultrasound treatments (like Ultherapy), and gentler lasers (like BBL and Fotona) are making it possible to restore texture and tone quickly and with minimal recovery time. 

When stars aren't getting lasered, or injected, chances are they're getting facials—very high-tech facials. Facial treatments are the best for reviving the skin, it gives it a glow, healthy looking radiance while hydrating, exfoliating and extracting all the impurities that is making it dull. We love Hydrafacial and Chemical Peels (Environ Cool Peel), they are great for any skin type and for both men and women.

It's an intensive regimen by any definition: If you start biweekly facials, and quarterly Botox in your early 30s and then build up to biannual Ultherapy, biannual filler, and the occasional laser treatment, you have a chance of looking like J. Lo at 45. And the results will be so gradual that nobody will know!

Gwyneth Paltrows said she loves going in for little things, like lasers is a breath of fresh air. And just when you thought Robin Wright couldn't be more likable, she admitted in an interview last year to a twice-annual sprinkle of Botox, adding, Everybody f***ing does it. 

In order to work toward an actress-caliber complexion, You will need to start with Ultherapy for both face and neck, Restylane for under the eyes; Botox (a neurotoxin) for around eyes, brow, chin, and upper lip and forehead, Fotona 4D on your neck and chest; laser skin rejuvenation; and a little Juvederm to fill in the lines that Botox can't, and medical-grade skincare like Celazome which is a cocktail of all the great nutrients your skin needs to protect your investment and of course Hydrafacials and Chemical peels are among our favorite facial treatments.
