FACE VALUES
Dr. David Jack
Cosmetic surgery and skincare: a topic many of us are curious about, but few truly understand. Meanwhile, our skin keeps ageing, and the beauty industry keeps churning out 'miracle' solutions. This podcast is about bringing the real science of aesthetics into everyday conversation, and lifting the lid on what's actually happening beneath our skin.
I'm joined by actor and writer Salima Saxton as we peel back the layers of beauty myths and anti-ageing promises. We're bringing you face-to-face with experts from across the field, from nutritionists to plastic surgeons, to give you the unvarnished truth about how our skin ages and what we can (and can't) do about it.
It's time to inject some honesty into the world of beauty - no Photoshop required.

Needles down - today isn't filled with Fillers or plumped with Profhilo. We have Jane Green, an acclaimed author and columnist, in the hot seat, and we're celebrating the gift age gives us. For those of you who feel you're flapping around an empty nest or sleepwalking through life trying to fit into neat little boxes, today is for you. Dear Jane may have the true anti-ageing key: radical self-acceptance, unbridled honesty, and taking up your rightful space in the world.
Magic mushrooms, wanting what you've got, and going grey - 're-wilding' is not always an aesthetically pleasing journey, but it may get you onto a very joyous new path in life.
About our guest: With 18 New York Times Bestsellers and over 10 million books in print, Jane Green is constantly reinventing her career, most recently as the hugely popular columnist "Dear Jane" in the UK national newspaper the Daily Mail and its popular Mail Online website. Now based in Marrakech, she is busy looking for a riad to renovate as her new home, procrastinating on writing a new novel, while trying hard not to rescue every street kitten in the medina.

It's not often we hear about a silver lining when it comes to the big 'C' word. But for our extraordinary guest today, Sophie Archer (on Masterchef The Professionals, no less), a blood cancer diagnosis catalysed her transition from high-power lawyer to powerhouse private chef - her true and unwavering passion.
Today, we're dining out on the formidable force of good food. Sophie is serving up her tricks of the trade on how to ensure your body (skin included, of course) is nourished, protected, and indulged with a colourful, delicious, mindful, and importantly, affordable approach to your diet. Pens down, forks out - here's how to eat your way to great (skin) health.

There's no denying the transformative effects of a professional brow treatment; shaped just right, they'll frame your features while adding structure and definition to your face. But you only have to step onto the tube to see the victims of 'over-doing it' (think two fat sausages sitting atop your eyes) or having 'under-done it' (the 90s plucking era, we'll never forgive you).
Luckily, we have The Queen of Brows, Suzanne Martin, creator of the Couture Brow TM️ and the artist behind most of the A-listers' arches, with us today, to talk us through what it really takes to enhance your individual beauty by creating the perfect, eye-opening and symmetry-centric eyebrow.
Tweezers and brow pencils down - this is the real 'Brows 101'.
About Our Guest: Suzanne Martin, creator of the Couture Brow, has an esteemed history as a makeup artist (working in-house at Christian Dior, no less) and is now recognised as the leading authority in eyebrow artistry. Working exclusively at the Lanesborough Club & Spa, Suzanne has a star-studded clientele thanks to her stellar reputation for creating beautiful and only ever natural-looking results.

FACE VALUES
07/24/24 • 35 min
Joining us today is the esteemed Dr. Charlotte Gribbin, to tackle a subject that may leave you feeling flushed. We’re diving into the hormonal rollercoaster which many women ride for years – Menopause - or as Dr. Charlotte describes it, ‘puberty in reverse’.
When it comes to this universal female experience, the silence can still feel deafening, but not for the next half an hour or so. We’re delving into the science behind the symptoms; why your tried and tested skincare may suddenly seem to work against you, why your jawline has flatlined and why your drop in confidence might be linked to your drop in collagen, and the best, science-led ways to approach this time of change to get you feeling (and looking) like yourself.
HRT misinformation, testosterone and hairloss and whether collagen supplements are a waste of money, this is your guide to age-optimising solutions during this time of change. Period.

Biostimulators, boosters, skincare, toxins, fillers, lasers... there's a myriad of ways we can support, strengthen, and rejuvenate our skin as we age. But where on earth do we start, and when should we begin thinking about doing what?
Salima and I are racing through the decades today - from troublesome teens to swinging sixties and beyond - to guide you through the changes that happen deep within the skin. We'll explore timely tweakments and savvy skincare best considered at each milestone.
Melasma moustaches, SPANX for the skin and the importance of a good mental attitude, we’re covering it all. So, whatever your age, it’s worth tuning in today (note - even if you're a teenager, slap on that SPF!).

Has facial fat become the latest victim of our culture’s toxic obsession with downsizing? Today we’re tackling a somewhat unappetising new phenomenon – the rise of weight loss ‘miracle’ drug Ozempic, and the subsequent fall of our youth-preserving facial fat.
With hollowed-out temples and gaunt, sunken structures, it seems the recreational use of diet drugs may, in fact, be creating BOBFOCs (Bodies Off Baywatch, Faces Off Crime Watch). Fillers can only go so far, so if you are thinking of going down the Ozempic route, we have some advice you need to hear – even if it’s hard to swallow.

In this episode, we’re joined by aesthetics aficionado and award-winning journalist and author, Alice Hart-Davis, for an unfiltered foray into the changing face of Tweakments – a term she coined that has since become industry standard. We journey from 1998, when Alice first ventured into aesthetics procedures, to the present. Back then, nurses were injecting collagen, and the idea of using toxins was met with horror. Fast forward to today and we chat salmon sperm injections for firming things up under the eyes, shaking up cocktails of regenerative medicine and ingredients to regrow your own fat.
We muse over what the future holds for Aesthetics, share the skincare you must always use, and the treatments that have dazzled and disappointed.
About Our Guest: Alice Hart-Davis is an award-winning beauty journalist and author. She has reported on non-surgical cosmetic procedures – ‘tweakments’ and skincare for 25 years and has tried countless procedures and products in order to review them.

It's more common to have an uneven skin tone than not. Regardless of your skin colour, dark spots and patches can appear on any part of the face and body. This is referred to as hyperpigmentation - think of it as your skin's way of keeping a diary of your adventures (such as sun-soaked holidays, scarring moments and pregnancy journeys). While it's common, many people find it problematic.
So, as summer gives its last hurrah, I'm sharing my Pigmentation Playbook. It's designed to get you clear on the types of hyperpigmentation you may (or may not) have, outline the approach to treating this tricky skin concern, and explain why taking a 'stepladder' approach might be your best bet in the quest for a bright and even complexion.
