First of all, there are a number of excellent serums and moisturizers with retinol or glycolic acid which can improve the appearance of aging skin. There are numerous laser treatments available which can soften lines and wrinkles and in some cases tighten up sagging skin. Injectable fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane and Radiesse can be used to restore the facial fullness that diminishes over time, especially in competitors who undergo frequent periods of dieting and dehydration and end up with a drawn and haggard appearance.
You may think that judges don’t pay attention to your face, but surprise…they do. Those harsh stage lights can enhance hollows and crevices in the face and end up making you look more like the Marlboro Man than the beach god you are supposed to resemble. Perhaps that is the look you are trying to achieve, but a youthful appearance will always catch the eye more than a face that is weathered.
If you have any questions about the above therapies, drop me a line and I will be happy to answer them. For those who may be interested in Botox or fillers, I perform these treatments in the Los Angeles area at a discounted rate to competitors.
