She also stresses how important it is for patients to feel comfortable and to Whether you're thinking about getting fillers or just curious about cosmetic treatments, this episode gives clear advice to help you make informed decisions.   Key Takeaways: - Tear trough fillers can be controversial and require skilled application. - Understanding the anatomy of the tear trough is crucial for effective treatment. - Not all under-eye issues can be resolved with fillers; proper diagnosis is key. - Candidates for fillers should primarily exhibit volume loss. - Bruising is a common side effect and often expected after treatment. - Using a cannula can reduce the risk of bruising during filler application. - Results from fillers can take up to two weeks to fully settle. - The bluish appearance of fillers can be due to light refraction, not the filler itself. - Concerns about filler migration are often exaggerated; proper technique minimizes risks. - Filler longevity varies, but hyaluronic acid is generally safe and well-tolerated. Patients can expect a thorough consultation before the filler procedure. -- Topical numbing gel is used to minimize discomfort during treatment. - The filler process is akin to live sculpture, allowing for real-time adjustments. - Post-treatment, patients can typically resume normal activities immediately. - Aesthetic treatments can significantly improve light reflection and overall appearance. - Choosing a qualified provider is crucial for successful outcomes. - Understanding the specific issues that filler can address is essential. - Complementary treatments can enhance the results of filler procedures. - Realistic expectations about results are important for patient satisfaction. - Referrals and personal recommendations can guide patients in selecting providers.   Dr. Rebecca Kazin is a board-certified dermatologist and nationally recognized expert in cosmetic dermatology and cutaneous dermatologic surgery.

The idea that the government should be run more like a business isn’t new. But with two businessmen, Donald Trump and Elon Musk, now taking a proverbial chainsaw to the federal bureaucracy all in the name “efficiency,” this theory is being put to the test. While it’s an appealing idea, Philip Joyce, professor of public policy at the University of Maryland School of Public Policy, said governments can’t afford to take risks the way businesses can. On the show today, Joyce explains the origins of the idea that the government should be run like a business, how we define “success” differently for the two entities, and how the way Trump and Musk do business is showing up in the White House. Then, we’ll break down the high stakes of today’s special elections in Wisconsin and Florida. Plus, reflections on serendipitous moments in walkable communities and what we gain by admitting we were wrong. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Why Running the Government Like a Business Would Be a Disaster” from The New York Times “The US Government Is Not a Startup” from Wired “The US Postal Service has been struggling for years. Now Trump’s talking about privatizing it” from AP News “DOGE wants businesses to run government services ‘as much as possible'” from The Washington Post “UPDATE: RECOVER Long COVID pathobiology grants restored” from The Sick Times “NIH restores some long COVID grants” from C&EN “What to Watch in Wisconsin's Supreme Court Election and Florida's Special Elections” from The New York Times “What to watch for Tuesday in Wisconsin's high-stakes Supreme Court race and special elections in Florida” from CNN Politics “Control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court is at stake in race that’s drawn powerful political interests” from AP News “Volume 52 | Issue 1 | February 2025” from the American Ethnological Society Got a question or comment for the hosts?
