With age comes wisdom, but unfortunately, wrinkles and other unwanted facial features also start appearing as we get older. There are a number of factors that cause both the look and feel of our skin to change with age, including stress, air pollution, fatigue, sun exposure, and lifestyle habits like smoking. Luckily, there are a number of great ways to stave off the effects of aging and keep your skin looking youthful and radiant. Some simple and effective tips include:
- Protect your skin from the sun: You may think you only need to wear sunscreen during the summer or when heading out for a day at the beach. Sunscreen is a highly beneficial skin care product that should be a part of your daily routine. Too much time in the sun can be damaging to the skin. Overexposure can result in sunburns, sunspots, wrinkles, and an increased risk for developing skin cancer. Wearing sunscreen every day will help you avoid the signs of aging and keep your skin looking young and beautiful.
- Avoid stress: Daily responsibilities can easily become overwhelming and make you feel stressed out. Studies show that stress can weaken your immune system and increase blood pressure. Similarly, stress can also affect the way your skin looks and feels. It has been shown that stress can worsen various skin problems, such as rosacea, rashes, blisters, and hives. Being stressed out can also have a negative impact on your dedication to your skin care routine. Avoiding stress and finding positive ways to relax and calm down can help you avoid these skin issues.
- Try the Fraxel re:store treatment: This amazing laser treatment is used to remove damaged layers of skin and promote healthy new skin growth. The Fraxel re:store treatment provides a number of benefits, including an even skin tone, brighter and cleaner skin, and a healthy and youthful appearance.
The Fraxel re:store treatment is just one of the wonderful laser treatments offered here at Nuvision Medspa. You can learn more about maintaining younger-looking skin by giving us a call at (888) 903-3534.

Aging, sun exposure, and facial expressions can all lead to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face. You may be able to protect your skin from the sun, but you can’t stop aging or wrinkles from smiling. That’s why dermal fillers are such a great choice for anyone interested in ridding themselves of those unwanted lines and wrinkles.
This video clip discusses what different dermal fillers, like Juvederm, do for the skin and how long their results last. Dermal fillers are typically injected directly into specific lines or wrinkles in order to “fill” them up with an element found naturally in the skin.
If you’d like to learn more about the effects and benefits of Juvederm and other dermal fillers, contact the team here at Nuvision Medspa. Call us today at (212) 889-1171 for more information.

SmartLipo is a form of liposuction that’s relatively new to the United States and offers numerous benefits, including reduced recovery time. Read on for more information about SmartLipo, the benefits and what the procedure entails.
What the Procedure Entails
As with traditional liposuction, SmartLipo includes the insertion of a cannula into the patient’s fat deposits—but that’s where any resemblance to traditional liposuction ends. With traditional liposuction, harsh methods are used to physically break apart the adipose tissue; this is what causes the swelling, bruising, and bleeding experienced by most patients of liposuction, and this is also one of the reasons why traditional liposuction cannot be used on anything but large fat deposits. SmartLipo, however, involves:
- The insertion of the cannula, which contains the laser.
- Liquefaction of the fat cells because of exposure to the laser.
- Fat that is easily removed from the body in liquid form or left inside the body to be excreted by the liver.
The process isn’t painless, but is minimally invasive and can be performed under local anesthesia alone.
Benefits of SmartLipo
The benefits of SmartLipo include:
- Shorter procedure time.
- Shorter recovery period.
- Fewer side effects.
- Ability to be used on more delicate regions of the body.
Traditional liposuction can only be used on large fat deposits, but SmartLipo can even be used on a person’s neck, face, and chin. There is also less downtime, with some patients going back to work within days of having the procedure performed.
If you’re interested in having liposuction without all of the side effects, contact Nuvision Medspa. Located in NYC, Nuvision Medspa offers a number of forms of liposuction, including SmartLipo. We also offer procedures such as scar and laser acne treatment, as well as laser hair removal. For more information about our medspa, call (212) 889-1171 today.
