✨ Summer 2025's Trending Aesthetic Treatments – What's Worth It?In this episode, Dr. Kristen Herzog breaks down RealSelf's top trending aesthetic treatments for summer and gives her honest “yes” or “no” on each one. From “Clean Girl Aesthetics” to hair restoration, she covers it all.

The beauty industry is experiencing a profound paradigm shift, and Dr. Missy Clifton sits down with Brian Clemson of Evolus to explore the cutting edge of this transformation. Their conversation reveals how aesthetic medicine is moving beyond traditional approaches toward more natural, holistic solutions that prioritize authentic beauty.Brian shares his journey from industry giant Allergan to his current role helping build Evolus from the ground up. As a performance beauty company focused exclusively on aesthetics, Evolus has differentiated itself through transparent pricing, exceptional service, and products that truly deliver results. This singular focus has allowed them to create meaningful innovations in a space that desperately needed fresh thinking.The discussion delves into what makes Juveau, Evolus's neuromodulator, a game-changer for practitioners and patients alike. With faster onset, precise placement, and natural-looking results, it's quickly becoming the preferred choice for those seeking subtle enhancement. But perhaps most revolutionary is the company's bold campaign to "drop the F-word" – moving away from "filler" terminology toward a more sophisticated understanding of hyaluronic acid treatments.Through their proprietary Cold-X technology, Evolus has created products that preserve the natural chain structure of hyaluronic acid, requiring fewer artificial cross-linking agents. The result? Injectable treatments that move naturally with facial expressions, avoiding the overfilled, unnatural look that has given traditional fillers a bad reputation. This approach perfectly aligns with today's aesthetic preferences for subtle enhancement rather than obvious intervention.The conversation also explores the fascinating convergence of aesthetics and wellness, including how weight loss treatments and aesthetic procedures are increasingly complementary. With specific labeling for addressing facial volume loss from GLP-1 weight management medications, Evolus is positioned at the forefront of this integrated approach.Ready to experience the difference of treatments designed for natural beauty?
