WHAT THE FRECK? Freckles Are This Summer’s Hot Look!
Good news, redheads! The freckles popping up on your face this summer are actually in style. Makeup and fashion experts have used platforms like TikTok and the runway to show that freckles can be trendy. The message is about embracing natural beauty, but some experts born without the luxury of freckles are taking matters into their own hands. Freckles are a matter of genetics. The sun activates these patches of pigmentation, so they are most commonly noticeable in those who are pale. The good news is freckles aren’t a sign of any issue. For those not blessed with these genetics, a few hacks can help achieve this look. Among some of the most popular freckle trends is using L’Oréal Paris Magic Retouch Temporary Root Spray. Those who dye their hair will recognize this product as a spray- on color for your hair intended to cover those pesky roots between dye jobs. With
a small spritz, beauty experts have found this product also creates the dusty freckles of your sun-kissed dreams! Just be sure to spray the product at least 3 inches away from your face (and close your eyes!) for a more natural application.

The Bare Necessities CELEBRATING THE BODY’S AESTHETICS
Is it butt naked, or buck naked? In our office, every day can be considered “Nude Day” as patients get disrobed for before and after pictures, consultations, or procedures on a daily basis. However, outside of Music City Plastic Surgery, National Nude Day falls on July 14 and celebrates freedom and the body’s aesthetics. All of the magic that happens within our office is intimate, private, and personal and is meant to be shared with a very small population of people, thus we take a very private approach. Our new clinic has two floors, and in the construction and design process, we were very intentional about having two photo rooms on each floor so our patients do not have to walk far up and down stairs in a robe and risk exposing themselves — the goal is to prevent Will Ferrell’s streaking scene in “Old School.” The comfort of our patients is always top of mind. National Nude Day always brings me back to a particular memory of my college days. At Notre Dame, while we didn’t have fraternities, there were specific designated dormitories. One of my good friends was a member of the dorm next to mine and every year, in the cold month of December, they’d have an annual
“Bun Run.” The men all stripped down into just hats and gloves and ran around campus naked. It was a riot because you’d be in the 11-story
library studying and hear a bunch of commotion. Sure enough, you’d see them all sprinting through, just fast enough so they wouldn’t get caught. Everyone laughed and cheered them on — it was Notre Dame’s own National Nude Day! Here in the office, we celebrate National Nude Day every day in our own way and get excited about the transformations our patients achieve. The beauty in having a nude perspective on things is the ability to help our patients see the profound changes in their body and the life-changing effects these changes can make! If you’re interested in celebrating National Nude Day, we are here to help you get prepped for it!
