Besides getting fit and upping self-care routines, more women are optimising their time away from the office to do minimally invasive treatments.
The Aesthetics Tweaks Women Are Doing In Secret

We’ve noticed a few trends in the last year, all thanks to people staying in more, from selfcare rituals (hello, daily masking) to baking (how is your sourdough starter doing?). Here’s another: More women are visiting their aesthetics doctors to work on their skin and faces.

We’re not just talking about simple laser treatments and medi-facials, but eyebag removal surgery, ablative lasers, and even Vaser liposuction – treatments that require some recovery time.

The rise in this trend, says Dr Shenthilkumar Naidu (known as Dr Shens to his patients), medical director of Shens Clinic, is due to patients not needing to take leave to recover, since they are working from home.

Mandatory mask-wear has played a part too, hiding posttreatment effects, such as redness, and swelling around the cheeks or lower face.

I would know. In the last six months, I’ve left the doctor’s clinic post-laser, looking like I have a really bad sunburn. My doctor has a freer rein on the laser intensity as he knows I’m staying put at home. And the effects are hidden behind my mask and sunnies.
