February marks one of the most glamorous months of the year in Hollywood! From the Grammys to the Oscars and all the parties in between, celebrities hit the red carpet looking their absolute best. But how do they achieve that flawless beauty? Dr. Guy Massry, an oculoplastic surgeon to the stars in Beverly Hills, reveals some of the top red carpet beauty secrets!

“In the months leading up to awards season, actors, singers, producers, directors, agents, etc. all begin their red carpet preparation. On most of their prep-lists you will see excellent skin care routines, extra gym sessions, strict diets, non-surgical beauty treatments, and, for some, plastic surgery,” commented Dr. Massry.Red Carpet Beauty Secrets Revealed

What Are The Go-To Non-Surgical Beauty Treatments?

At his Beverly Hills practice, Dr. Massry helps his celebrity patients look their best with a conservative approach to injectables, including BOTOX and fillers.

BOTOX

The days of “bad BOTOX” are over as long as you go to an expert injector who knows precisely where to place the Botox so the results are natural and there is still movement around the brows and forehead. Botox is a great treatment to smooth out unwanted wrinkles and lines from the forehead, 11-lines, and crow’s feet. Additionally, Dr. Massry can strategically place the Botox to give his patients a “Botox Brow Lift.”

A conservative and natural approach to Botox is especially important for actors who need to be able to make distinct facial expressions to get their character’s emotions across. Dr. Massry knows and understands this need and therefore just uses Botox to subtly smooth and refresh his celebrity patients’ appearance for the red carpet.

Fillers

Filler treatments are one of Hollywood’s best-kept secrets when performed by a skilled injector! Today there are several filler products (such as Restylane, Juvederm, Restylane Silk, Belotero, etc) on the market that allow for very natural looking results. Some of the most common filler treatments include:

  • Under the eyes for dark circles, under eye bags or hollows
  • Fill sunken brows
  • Lift and revolumize sagging upper eyelids
  • Add volume to hollow temples
  • Restore and enhance volume to the cheeks
  • Increase the size of the lips
  • Replenish volume to nasolabial folds

As with his approach to Botox, when Dr. Massry treats his celebrity clients with filler, he takes a very natural and conservative approach. “My goal is to use fillers simply to restore lost volume to my patients’ faces. I can also use the filler to create subtle, yet powerful, facial contours. But ultimately we never want anyone to suspect any ‘work’ has been done,” said Dr. Massry.

Blepharoplasty

For celebrities in their late 40s to late 60s, sagging upper eyelids and lower eyelid bags become a big concern and a dead giveaway for their age. As one of the best blepharoplasty surgeons, Dr. Massry offers his celebrity patients a very customized approach to eyelid rejuvenation. For eyelid rejuvenation surgery to provide the best outcome, Dr. Massry considers all aspects of the eyelids and adjacent areas. This includes assessing forehead and eyebrows to see if an eyebrow lift is needed, as well as looking at the cheeks or midface to see if fat repositioning, a midface lift, or fat grafting will be beneficial. Taking this more holistic approach ensures the patient’s results look natural and balanced.
