Spotlight on Dr Steven Dayan
According to Dr Steven Dayan, beauty is a pre-wired evolutionary instinct and is achievable for everyone. Best-selling author Dr Steven will be speaking at the 2013 Australasian Academy of Anti-Ageing Conference about the natural laws of beauty and techniques in mimicking beauty.
“The brain is pre-wired to sense beauty and constantly make subconscious evaluations of attractiveness but studies show that the personal confidence gained from cosmetic procedures is often more beneficial to overall beauty scales,” said Dr Steven.
Recognising the power of self-esteem and ‘feeling good’, Dr Steven’s ultimate goal for beauty is for patients to feel good about themselves. He calls for all aestheticians to re-think why and how they perform non-surgical injections and fillers to mimic the ‘unified idea of beauty’.
“As clinicians we need to understand the subtleties of beauty through the evolutionary lens,” said Dr Steven, “simply by modifying our current practices and using emerging treatment strategies we can move closer to the evolutionary idea of perfection.”
Dr Steven will also be discussing emerging techniques using blunt lip cannulas and thinned out fillers.
