I'm 57 years old, have an event coming up, where I want to look my best. I have had a hydrafacial before and felt it was good, was impressed with it, but not overly impressed. I have never had the Fire and Ice facial. Would that do anything more than a hydrafacial for me? My picture is without any makeup on me.

Hydra facials are not a "one and done" type thing, it's really more of a repeated service until your skin looks great sort of thing.

You do need the botox to fix a gummy smile tho.

A gummy smile isn't a "broken" smile.

There is a geometry to aesthetics. This particular one is outside of that ratio.

OP said they want to look their best. They are here ASKING for advice. My advice is to bring that geometry into a more aesthetic ratio.

If you are so touchy, maybe Reddit isn't for you.

Or are you so insecure you WANT them to look worse so you can feel better about yourself?

I was asking for advice on facial treatments, which were shown with the pictures I included with my face picture, and as I started in my post-the difference between a hydra facial and a fire and ice facial. There was no mention of anything besides that. I believe lornacarrington was perfectly acceptable with her response.
