Roses are red. 🌹
Inflammation is… lower when you feel loved. 😉

Last weekend I shared:
Food is medicine.
Nature is medicine.
Connection is medicine.

Today feels like a good day to return to that.

As a physician in aesthetic medicine, I still think about whole health — not just what’s visible, but what’s happening under the surface.

Strong, supportive relationships are associated with lower inflammatory markers (CRP, IL-6), healthier cardiovascular responses, improved wound healing, and better long-term health outcomes. Perceived support and affectionate touch are linked to higher oxytocin and lower stress physiology (cortisol, sympathetic activation).

Taking care of yourself — your skin, your strength, your relationships, your overall health — builds confidence, yes. But it also regulates stress, steadies inflammation, and supports the biology underneath it all.

So today, in whatever form it takes-

Connection is medicine. 💜

Took time out for an art 🖼️ retreat with colleagues in medicine with Medical Arts Project (MAPS) Sonoma. Learned new artistic forms, met so many talented people, took in the natural surroundings by the ocean and in the forest, and made the time for creating. I called my art approach “running with scissors”-unplanned, allowing myself to create whatever came to mind.

✨1st Botox treatment.✨
What does a Botox cosmetic treatment look like before and after?

Deeper lines in the frown area and forehead relax as the underlying muscles relax.
Static (at rest) lines do not disappear immediately, but can soften as seen here in the top photo (at rest). Lines at rest can continue to soften with time (this takes a year or two) when treatments are maintained every 3-4 months.

Similar results can occur with any of the injectable neuromodulators, including Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, Jeuveau, Letybo, and Daxxify.

These are injectable drugs that work the same way-by temporarily relaxing the underlying muscles.
