Have you ever wondered how a toxin is invented? In this episode I got to interview the inventor of Xeomin, Dr. Jürgen Frevert. Dr. Frevert is an expert, a fighter for toxin purity, and a pioneer in aesthetics. Dr. Frevert was one of the first people to work with botulinum toxin and discovered a method of purifying it to give it 10 times less accessory junk proteins than brand name Botox. He is a fascinating character and his insights on the uses of xeomin, the properties of a great toxin and aesthetics in general are fascinating. Many patients have developed an immunity and/or resistance to brand name toxins like Botox or Dysport and I always look to Xeomin when a patient is dealing with these issues. Getting to meet Dr. Frevert was something I’d looked forward to for a while as a provider that uses Xeomin for a large portion of my patients on a daily basis. I truly stand behind this toxin and it was so fascinating to meet the man who started it all! Dr. Frevert began his cooperation with Merz Pharmaceuticals during his time as a Project Manager for biochemical projects and forged a new development in the pure clostridium botulinum neurotoxin that is now known around the world as Xeomin. Xeomin was officially licensed to Merz Pharmaceuticals in 2005 for the treatment of cervical dystonia and with blepharospasm following in 2009. Dr. Frever is currently traveling the globe as a consultant for Merz Pharmaceuticals and educated physicians, PAs, nurses, and industry insiders on his prized-creation on a daily basis.  Find me on Instagram here Watch my video Toxin Challenge Dysport vs. Xeomin here Learn about here Shop my amazing skincare line here

Happy Friday Beauties! On this week's Five Minute Friday, I'm debunking everything you've been told about fillers. Being in this industry for nearly twenty years, I'm frequently asked through DMs, emails, and friends for filler recommendations and which ones are appropriate for specific areas of the face. Not only is every filler manufactured differently, but many of them are also made to target specific areas. The facial anatomy and skin elasticity vary from patient to patient, making it absolutely necessary to seek out an injector that is capable of guiding you in the right direction. As a facial plastic surgeon, I have had countless patients come in for hyaluronidase injections -- the injectable used to dissolve HA fillers -- because of work they received from an inexperienced injector. This episode is a great way to learn about the options available when it comes to beauty maintenance! Have a topic you want to be covered on the podcast? Send me a DM or email [email protected]!

Happy Friday, beauties! On this week's Five Minute Friday, we chat about setting realistic expectations to attain your beauty goals. Quite often do patients come into my practice with unrealistic goals or seeking results that require a gradual process. Part of my responsibility as an injector is to ensure that my patients make informed decisions by creating a beauty plan with them and determining what treatments are a priority to them. Not everyone will be a good candidate for every procedure and some patients will need to come in for multiple visits to achieve optimal results. A good injector will always be upfront with patients and understand the importance of educating their patients. If you've been considering an injectable procedure or other aesthetic treatments, this episode is for you! I love enabling my listeners to make decisions that improve their overall happiness. Come visit me for a consultation, I'd love to meet you! Find me on Instagram here Learn about some of my procedures offered in my practice here Shop my amazing skincare line here!

Happy Friday Beauty Byters! This Five Minute Friday episode is all about peptides. A peptide is a compound composed of amino acids, and in skincare it helps reinforce proteins that naturally occur in the skin, rejuvenating and maintaining it. You need to incorporate this amazing ingredient into your skincare routines. Peptides improve your skin’s firmness, elasticity, and dissipates redness. Peptides can also be used to smooth wrinkles and repair barrier function. You can consume peptides both topically and orally. Some foods that are rich in peptides include milk products, eggs, soybeans, fish and meat. The KD Skincare line carries products rich in peptides as well. KD Triple Shot Serum, KD Night Quench, and KD Luxe Tighten use peptides to soften the skin and provide rich nutrients. It is important to add strong building blocks to your skincare routine. I recommend starting with products with peptides for healthy, smooth skin! Find me on Instagram here! Find KD Triple Shot Serum here! Find KD Night Quench here! Find KD Luxe Tighten here!
