Procedures that offer minor tweaks and small corrections to the face and body are increasing in popularity.
On top of that, more and more patients are looking for preventive treatments.
"I think preventive treatments will be big in the near future," said Park Dae-jeong, a cosmetic doctor who specializes in Botox and fillers. "Reflecting such trends, a larger number of patients are undergoing nonsurgical treatments at a younger age."

It's no secret that as you age, the look and feel of your skin deteriorates. The loss of elastic tissue in the skin causes it to sag, and this loose skin starts to become transparent, bruises more easily and even becomes rougher. If you smoke or have had a lot of exposure to the sun, chances are your skin will age even more quickly.
So, how can you prolong this inevitable aging process and stay younger, longer? Enter collagen peptides.

The current trend for natural skin care, from rosehip face oils to rhassoul clay masks, owes a great deal to the first wave of the movement, which gained momentum in the 1960s and '70s when earthy, do-it-all formulas made with uncomplicated plant-derived ingredients — and a certain free-spirited, hippie mentality — abounded. Such products captured a moment in time, when wellness didn't feel like a marketing concept, and you could relax in a salt bath without feeling the urge to document it on social media. It's this slow, simple approach to self-care that has sparked a renewed interest in these retro goods in our modern age.

From the aspirational fair and smooth skin a decade ago, new age consumers and brands are redefining beautiful skin as healthy and naturally glowing. With narratives around essential skin care regimes involving a healthy diet, adequate water intake, exercise and intake of vitamins and antioxidants, the new age consumer is taking "healthy skin" much more seriously than just a cosmetic "fix-up".

Wilderness Safaris' Jao Camp in the Okavango Delta in Botswana has recently reopened after a redesign, which includes a rejuvenated health and wellness offering through its new spa.

"However, a treatment in our new spa ... is bound to further inspire our guests to fully appreciate Jao's extraordinary holistic offering, which seamlessly reflects the health of the Delta's ecosystem."

If you really want to up your skin care game, the best way to do so is by learning exactly what's in the products you're putting on your face. Sounds like common sense, but you wouldn't believe how many people never even bother to read the ingredients lists.
Here's the thing: there are a lot of skin care products in the world, and they all need a way to get you to fork over your cash. It makes a lot more sense to get educated about what products are really worth paying the money for. And in the case of hyaluronic acid, one of the power players, you won't need to pay much at all if you play your cards right.

Today, the global beauty industry is a $532 billion business. The U.S. currently is the world's largest beauty market, with about 20% share, followed by China (13%) and Japan (8%). While projections for growth vary, most agree it will continue to advance at a 5%-to-7% compound-annual-growth-rate to reach or exceed $800 billion by 2025. Even if the world economy dips between now and then, the beauty business is more likely than other discretionary categories to hold its own.

After unrolling our yoga mats beneath massive crystal chandeliers in a space adjacent to the dining room of the Federal bar in downtown Long Beach, California, we were directed to select two types of locally brewed craft beers from a curated menu. Then, pint glasses in hand we took our places on our mats and waited for class to begin. No sipping, though, before the first asana.
Beer yoga, it's a thing.

 There aren’t enough hours in the day for everything you want to do, and this realization leads many people to multitask. However, multitasking can actually be counterproductive. While you may consider yourself an exception to the rule, the science and the experts disagree. In a Stanford University study, people who frequently engage in multitasking — and think they're excellent multitaskers — shift back and forth so often that it negatively impacts their ability to distinguish between important and irrelevant information.

Do you often feel that the day gallops away with you and you don't get done what you wanted? Do you get frustrated by all the items that distract you in your day? Well, the good news is that you are not alone — but the challenge is that you are being reactive in your business, rather than pro-active. Great leaders understand that they need to grab the reins and take charge of their business if they are to be successful. They need to lead their day, rather than let the day lead them. And whilst this is easy to say, it's often more difficult to do in practice.

For most small businesses, developing a marketing strategy comes with a lot of overhead. Almost every single bit of advice that “gurus” offer to businesses requires access to a significant marketing budget.
However, successful marketing doesn't always hinge on how much you spend on it. The metrics for a successful marketing campaign have to do with how many people realize your brand exists and what products you can provide to them.

 Most marketers don’t count on social shares much! That’s because from 2015 to 2017, social sharing dropped by half, according to BuzzSumo data. Yet, there is an outlier: original, authoritative content. Publications like The New York Times, Harvard Business Review, and The Economist actually saw a substantial increase in the number of their social shares. For marketers, publishing original research was their ticket to capitalize on the above trend. For the most part, it seemed to work.

Transdermal naloxone delivery could be a potential option for treating opioid-induced pruritus, but naloxone does not permeate skin well due to its hydrophilic nature. Microneedles (MNs) could overcome the skin barrier by painlessly creating microchannels in the skin to permit naloxone absorption to therapeutic levels. This study investigated how ionization correlates with naloxone permeation across MN-treated skin.

Grant Wiggins, Ph.D, writes: "We had a delightful visit to The School of the Future in New York City the other day. Lots of engaged kids, a great blend of instruction and constructivist work, and an obvious intellectual culture. And as the picture illustrates, everywhere we went we also saw helpful visual reminders of the big ideas and essential questions framing the work we were watching: School of the Future staff have long been users of UbD tools and ideas.
But far too often, over the years, I have seen plenty of good stuff posted like this – but no deep embedding of the Essential Question into the unit design and lessons that make it up."
