In 10 weeks, participants were recorded to have lost an average of 1 pound just by walking from 1,000 to 10,000  steps daily. And that’s without even dieting to lose the weight! Results were acquired from participants taking part in the study from one month to one year.

Don’t have the motivation to walk? Buy yourself a pedometer; it may help get you moving.

People tell me that chocolate doesn’t cause acne, but whenever I eat chocolate, I always break out. Why?

You’re right, chocolate doesn’t cause acne. Many people believe it does, but it’s just a myth that scientific research has proven time and time again.

However, if you notice that you break out whenever you eat chocolate, it may be because that’s your individual reaction to it. Your body may be reacting to something in the chocolate, resulting in those breakouts. Cut out chocolate and see if your breakouts subside; if they do, you’ll just have to find something else to satisfy your sweet tooth!

Sound familiar? Even if you didn’t even pick and pop them, those pimples you used to have are now a bunch of scars marring your complexion. Don’t mask them with loads of makeup, potentially causing new pimples to form and that vicious cycle to repeat itself. Talk to us at 416-221-5554 about laser acne scarring treatment with the gold standard of lasers, The StarLux 500.

Essentially a form of nonablative laser resurfacing, removing acne scars is a gentle nonsurgical method of reclaiming your complexion. Each session lasts up to an hour depending on the severity of your problem. In the days and weeks following a single treatment, most patients experience a gradual reduction in the appearance of their acne scars (though a series of sessions may be required to achieved the best results).

A perfect hairstyle for the sticky days of summer.

Hair succumbing to heat, leaving it flat or frizzy? Stay chic. Sweep all of your strands up away from your neck and face and tie it up into a sexy top knot - the hottest hairstyle for the season. The top knot is a take on the classic bun, but instead of putting it at the back of your head, position it on the top of your head or off to the side (above an ear). Slick it all into a stylized bundle or leave it messy for that I-just-rolled-out-of-bed-and-I-still-look-this-good look.

Put away those shapeless dresses and baggy pants - here are some must-haves for your closet:

Dresses: Think A-Line. Dresses that are smaller in width at the top then flare out in the skirt are perfect for big booty girls.

Tops: Keep the eye attracted to the upper part of your body (well away from your butt!) by choosing tops that have intricate detailing and designs. Make sure tops don’t bunch around any part of your derrier, since it’ll only add to the protrusion.

Bottoms: Pants with a high waist will only make your butt look bigger, so opt for lower waists and legs that slightly flare at the bottom. Avoid pants with fancy back pockets, or any detailing that draws the eye to your butt. Stick to solid colours for that slimming effect.

Did you know that the state of your fingernails can give you some good vital clues about your health? We’re not talking about if your nails are begging for a manicure - we’re talking about how they can reflect what your body is lacking nutritionally. Beautiful fingernails aren’t just about getting them manicured.

Before you apply nailpolish, give your nails a once over.  If they’re brittle and dry, you may need some more calcium in your diet. See any whitespots? That could mean you’re low on zinc. Are your nails so soft that they can easily tear or peel? Boost your protein consumption.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, most of us are applying only 25-50% of the required amount of sunscreen to sufficiently protect our skin from the damaging effects of UV radiation.

Remember - you need at least 1 ounce of sunscreen to be adequately protected. Apply to exposed dry skin 15-30 minutes before you go outside, even if it’s a cloudy day, and use something that provides broad spectrum coverage.

If you’re worried that some may accidentally get wiped off while you’re applying it, try putting it on in layers, allowing the sunscreen to dry in between.

From a 34D, Mrs. Beckham is now a more modest 34B after undergoing surgery a few weeks ago. Current photos show that her bust is still pretty ample on her small frame, though.

The former pop star-turned-fashion designer was originally a 34A, back when she was better known as Posh in the Spice Girls. She had her first surgery in the late 90s.

Don’t believe us? Look at actress Jennifer Grey. Her face is almost unrecognizable from  her Dirty Dancing days. Her physician altered her nose to achieve the result she was looking for, but can you recognize her now?

So, if you’re interested in undergoing nose job surgery, learn more about the procedure and make sure that it’s something you want to do for yourself. Think about whether it will actually improve how you think about your appearance.

Speak with our patient consultant to find out more about rhinoplasty at 416-221-5554.
