Most people choose by the number of cells. The number that matters is how many survive - and on that, the cheaper method has the better biology.
Researchers photographed 1,826 twins to find out. The answer changes what is worth doing for your face - and most of it is not sold in a jar.
Both are made of the same protein. What makes skin young is not how much collagen it has, but how that collagen is woven - and that changes how every "collagen" treatment should be judged.
It isn't stitches or glue. It's how deep the cut goes - and there is a simple test for that, which decides everything that follows.
Not what you want changed, but whether surgery is the right tool at all. The fifth question is the one that decides whether a consultation was honest.
The gold liquid is antiseptic, and the enemy it targets is a film too thin to see. The steps you never hear about are the ones that decide whether a result lasts.

Four things to check, and none of them is the result. Lighting, distance and posture can manufacture an outcome that no operation produced.
It is almost never the result. The complication surgeons genuinely lose sleep over is silent, and the treatment for it is the most boring instruction you will be given.
Numbness after surgery alarms people far more than pain does. Usually nothing is wrong - nerves simply regrow at a speed that has nothing to do with how you feel.
Everyone expects a straight line down after surgery. It is not one - swelling climbs for two to three days first, and that climb is the repair arriving.
A bruise is blood in the wrong place, and your body dismantles it in stages. Each stage has its own colour - and gravity decides where it ends up.
Two of the three signs you were taught to watch for are supposed to be there. Here is what a trained eye actually looks at, and the one test you can do at home.
Length, stitches and thread get the blame. The variable that writes a scar is tension - and most of the work controlling it happens where no patient ever sees it.
Patients assume a one-centimetre lump needs a one-centimetre cut. The length is not chosen by the surgeon - it is dictated by the angle at which skin can lie flat.
