The world of aesthetics is constantly changing and growing . It seems as if every few months , there is a new technology or treatment on the horizon . With more options comes more information and often more confusion . When we have so many great ways to treat different conditions , how do we choose ?

Picking my favorite treatments is like trying to pick my favorite friends . I like so many of them for different reasons and how they fit into my life . For example , chemical peels are my tried-and-true friend . We have known each other for decades , and I know what to expect . I have lasers that I think of as my best friend . These lasers are workhorses ; they treat what I need when I need it , and I know I can always rely on them . Body contouring devices are the friends I turn to when I need a pick-me-up . Then there are radiofrequency microneedling and plasma technologies , a couple of my new and exciting friends . Often , there are times where I just cannot choose . Rather than picking just one , I think of how I can best utilize all my favorites depending on different treatment concerns .
