IN RECENT YEARS, skincare formulators
and medical aesthetic facilities alike have
seen body care move from an afterthought to
a main event. As patient awareness of offace treatment options expands, so too does
the desire for targeted homecare products
specifcally formulated for the chest, hands and
body. ���Skin care is becoming more popular
and more targeted���now you see more care
for the hands, face, neck, heels, elbows and the
backs of arms,��� says Tatiana Kononov, director
of research and development for Revision
Skincare (revisionskincare.com). ���We���re
fnding a lot of treatments now being taken
from the face and applied to the hands and
d��collet��, for example.���
