Episode 8: Insider Secrets – Cosmeceutial Ingredients, Procedures and Devices Part 2

This episode is part 2 of our series about cosmeceutical ingredients, procedures, and devices. In Part 1, I talked about treatments like Botox, LED Light therapy, fillers and more procedures that are common to try to reduce or reverse aging.
