Happy Friday, beauties! On this week's Five Minute Friday, we chat about setting realistic expectations to attain your beauty goals. Quite often do patients come into my practice with unrealistic goals or seeking results that require a gradual process. Part of my responsibility as an injector is to ensure that my patients make informed decisions by creating a beauty plan with them and determining what treatments are a priority to them.

A good injector will always be upfront with patients and understand the importance of educating their patients. If you've been considering an injectable procedure or other aesthetic treatments, this episode is for you! I love enabling my listeners to make decisions that improve their overall happiness.

Happy Friday Beauty Byters! This Five Minute Friday episode is all about peptides. A peptide is a compound composed of amino acids, and in skincare it helps reinforce proteins that naturally occur in the skin, rejuvenating and maintaining it. You need to incorporate this amazing ingredient into your skincare routines. Peptides improve your skin’s firmness, elasticity, and dissipates redness. Peptides can also be used to smooth wrinkles and repair barrier function. You can consume peptides both topically and orally. Some foods that are rich in peptides include milk products, eggs, soybeans, fish and meat. The KD Skincare line carries products rich in peptides as well. KD Triple Shot Serum, KD Night Quench, and KD Luxe Tighten use peptides to soften the skin and provide rich nutrients. It is important to add strong building blocks to your skincare routine. I recommend starting with products with peptides for healthy, smooth skin! Find me on Instagram here! Find KD Triple Shot Serum here! Find KD Night Quench h
