Most people will benefit greatly from a minor procedure to look their best and freshest. These procedures include Botox injections for wrinkles as well as fillers to plump up the lips or correct wrinkles on the lower face. A ViPeel treatment will eliminate sun spots, brown spots, pigmentation or fine wrinkles on the face.
Something bugging you about your visage? Have a "trouble spot" that needs a time out? Yeah, there's a laser for that.
You know what they say: The only thing that doesn't change is... change itself. If your body's changing in ways that you're less than thrilled about, you can change the way you think about it - or you can change what you do about it.
What's something most of us want, but don't take the time to do for ourselves? Change our look for the better. Give your loved one, BFF or Secret Santa a gentle nudge towards the self improvement they've been talking about for months (Years?) with a well-selected, sure-to-be-appreciated gift certificate.
The best presents are rich in meaning, even if they are humble in price. Here are our favorites, along with the encouraging sentiments we think they express. And, speaking of sentiments, we hope you'll consider the one of sincere thanks local SCV business owners extend to you every time you shop locally. Keeping your dollars in Santa Clarita is a gift we all can be grateful for.

SKINCARE

"My son is very sick," shares Cara of Valencia. "I cry - a lot. I rub my eyes. I developed red circles under my eyes that wouldn't go away; they were nearly impossible to cover with makeup. His illness will be fatal if we can't find a cure and it seemed almost selfish to even think about how I look through all of this, but he needs me to feel as good as possible so I can help him feel as good as possible. That's why I went to SKIN by Heller Plastic Surgery," says the SCV mom.

BODY & WEIGHTLOSS

Laura, 57, has a message for women and men of every age. "When it comes to how you feel about yourself, how you feel when you look in the mirror, do what you need to do to build your confidence. Don't do it for your husband, or for society, or for anyone else. Do it for you - get it done! Plastic surgery... anything. Just do it. The mirror is unforgiving. Life is better when you feel good about yourself and how you look."
Victoria, 39, had a breast augmentation at Heller Plastic Surgery nearly four months ago, but when you ask her about it, this change was a much longer time coming. "I always knew that I would get this done; it was a matter of when," says the Westside resident. "I never hated my breasts or anything - but at an A cup, I really wanted to have a bigger chest so that my body looked more proportional."

FASHION
Wendy Smith has owned a thriving business (BlingityBling sells blinged-out boots, Converse and custom team apparel.) with a storefront on Avenue Stanford for 8 years - but it wasn't until she decided to buy an 18-by-20-foot truck and load it with easy-breezy beach styles that she was able to take it on the road.
