It’s true that no one has found the Fountain of Youth yet. But in the meantime, there is a battery of stateof-the-art products, facials and medical treatments that erase the years. Here, the newest mind-blowing solutions to fold into your beauty routine.
At Home
An apple a day? Forget it. Try the Sisleÿa Collection ($169-$570, sisley-paris.com), a comprehensive daily skincare collection that keeps age away. Begin with the Sisleÿa L’intégral eye contour cream—complete with special application tools—a concentrated formula that renews skin around the eyes and lips. “You’re getting an instant lifting and firming effect,” says Sonya Menon, senior vice president of marketing and education at Sisley Cosmetics. “We want to prep the skin first before we apply; It helps to de-puff and push through toxins.” Then slather up with the highly acclaimed Sisleÿa L’intégral AntiAge face cream, a light, uber-hydrating and luxurious product that peels away the lines with every application.
At The Spa
Treat yourself with the newest indulgence at The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Boston, with the Remodeling Face, featuring French biological products from Biologique Recherche. “Galvanic and two types of high frequency currents penetrate high active quintessential serums into the skin whilst working on lifting specific facial muscles to have an immediately toned effect,” says Spa Director Virginia Lara. Bottom line? “Fine lines are reduced and skin texture is transformed.” From $290, 776 Boylston St., 617.535.8820, mandarinoriental.com
At The Doctor’s Office
For the ultimate age-defying treatment, head to Dr. Melissa Schneider at The Boston Center. The Clear + Brilliant laser treatment is an hour-long procedure that is designed to reverse signs of aging and maintain a youthful complexion for the next decade. “It’s used for skin resurfacing and dermal remodeling,” says Dr. Schneider, a plastic surgeon specializing in non-invasive procedures. “It will address fine lines, wrinkles, texture irregularities, and dyschromia, which describes changes in pigment.” The best part? No recovery time. From $495, 170 Commonwealth Ave., 617.267.1600, melissarschneidermd.com
