Getting Work Done
Inside the rise of non-invasive treatments.
Fromlip injectionsto laser facials, non-invasive aesthetic procedures that deliver natural results dubbed tweakments are on the rise.
No longer a closed-door secret, hardly anyone bats an eye if you mention a Botox appointment in 2022.
According to experts, there are a few reasons why tweakments have recently exploded in popularity.
Fonteyne also notes that the tweakment category has grown tremendously over the last decade.
Now, I think social media has brought it to the mainstream and normalized the conversations around these treatments.
When it comes to tweakments, there are two categories.
These include things like DiamondGlow facials anddermaplaning treatments, which are highly tolerable for almost everyone.

The takeaway is that there is usually a correlation between downtime, pain, and efficacy, says Fonteyne.
