Episode Transcript

Thinking about stepping into the world of Botox or fillers? Well, today on February 1st, 2025, we’re diving into the key insights you need before starting this aesthetic journey. In a recent chat with the hosts of HuffPost’s podcast “Am I Doing It Wrong?”, Dr. Sherwin Parikh, a renowned dermatologist and founder of Tribeca Skin Center, shared essential tips for getting the best out of your injectables.

Dr. Parikh emphasizes considering injectables as an art form, where the practitioner is your artist. It’s crucial to select someone whose skills and vision align with your expectations because, after all, it’s your face they’ll be working on. He reassures that a capable practitioner doesn’t necessarily need to be an MD, but they should feel right for your vibe and aesthetic goals.

Another no-nonsense tip from Dr. Parikh: steer clear of too-good-to-be-true deals, like those tempting Groupons. Your health and appearance aren’t worth the risk. Always prioritize healthy skin as the primary goal—wrinkles or not, it’s about a beautiful canvas.

As you ponder this aesthetic enhancement, consider reaching out to friends for recommendations. Gone are the days when talking about these treatments was taboo. A bit of community research can go a long way in finding a practitioner who aligns with your expectations.
