In this episode, Amy Strong, who is a permanent makeup artist at simple Sweet beauty in Jacksonville Florida goes over the difference between the traditional microblading as we all know and love to powder brows. This is a great episode if you are wanting to get permanent makeup done and aren't sure what kind of brows you would like or if you would also like to get into permanent make up.

1. **Skin Boosters**: These treatments are ideal for individuals with dehydrated skin or those needing a boost, especially as we age or experience hormonal changes like menopause. Skin boosters work on superficial layers of the skin, providing hydration and refreshing the skin without permanent effects.

2. **Collagen Stimulation**: Treatments like **Sculptra** and **Radiesse** are emphasized for their ability to stimulate collagen, which helps with skin rejuvenation. Melissa explains that while topicals can assist, they aren't as effective as treatments that reach deeper layers of the skin. Collagen-building injectables and devices (e.g., radiofrequency microneedling) are highlighted as long-term solutions.

3. **Radiofrequency Devices**: Devices using radiofrequency (RF) are gaining traction for their skin-tightening and fat-remodeling effects, with minimal downtime. These treatments work by delivering energy to different skin layers to stimulate collagen production and promote tighter, firmer skin.

4. **Exosomes**: Melissa explains how exosomes, derived from stem cells, can accelerate skin healing, reduce inflammation, and stimulate collagen production. These are used in professional treatments like microneedling for enhanced rejuvenation. Exosomes function as a director, orchestrating cellular activities for regeneration.

5. **Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)**: A favorite among professionals, PRF (including the "Plated" version Melissa recommends) works by harnessing the body's own stem cells and growth factors to rejuvenate the skin. It’s applied topically or used in treatments like microneedling for a robust anti-aging effect.

6. **Growth Factors**: While similar to exosomes, growth factors are naturally occurring proteins that support cell growth and tissue repair. They’re used to improve skin healing and collagen production and are included in various skincare products and professional treatments.

7. **Aesthetic Education and Safety**: The conversation wraps with Melissa emphasizing the importance of education in the aesthetic space. She mentions **AestheticsHQ**, a platform designed to help people better understand and select the right treatments, providers, and devices for their specific needs. The platform aims to streamline the process of learning about aesthetic treatments while ensuring safety and personalized care.
