25.01.2022 JAW TALK. More from MISS FRANCs interview with #HarpersBazaar. "Jawline work is generally avoided (in your fifties-plus) due to a higher skin laxity, which means the skin wont always lift and contour the way we would like it to." This trend of remodelling the area is achieved through the strategic placement of neurotoxin and dermal fillers. Its not as simple as sitting through a few small jabs, though. According to Ithier it takes four... to six milligrams of dermal filler to effectively resculpt a jawline, so youre looking at a number of dates with your injector. "Jawlines are treated in a two-to-three step process. The first is to treat the muscle with neurotoxins, slimming the masseter muscles in either side of the jaw," Ithier says. "From here the next step is to treat with dermal fillers, which is actually what allows us to recreate the shape. Women between 20 and 30 tend to have a slimmer jaw, so this is typically all thats required." Considering jaw treatment?

25.01.2022 TRAINING AND AGEING. Does exercise accelerate the ageing process? It all depends on frequency and intensity. For example, after prolonged exercise (say, a marathon run) the bodys metabolism shifts with a resulting increase in free radicals atoms that can cause permanent damage to your cells and speed up the ageing process. Also created by external factors such a pollutants, ultraviolet light and smoking, free radicals attack nearby healthy molecules including collagen an...d DNA and we want to keep those for as long as possible! Not so fun fact: It has been estimated that each of our 100 trillion cells gets hit by 10,000 free radicals per day! Good news is high intakes of antioxidants including vitamin C and E (fruit and veg!) work to convert free radicals back into healthy molecules. It is believed the biggest cause of ageing (following smoking and the sun) is actually running due to the pounding up and down motion causing forces of skin and against bone, consequently loosening everything (hello sagging neck and lower cheek). Of course, running in moderation is a welcome beauty boost improving muscle tone and circulation. Its all about that balance.

24.01.2022 Always looking to assist our clients in the most seamless experience, we’re so excited to introduce AfterPay and ZipPay to the MISS FRANC clinic. Because, sometimes, that beauty enhancement just can’t wait! Want to know more? Enquire on your next visit, or contact (02) 8937 0692.

22.01.2022 As Australia rejoices in the (somewhat) freedom to drink, dine and dance with friends, weve welcomed increasing demand for our top (same day) event facial - the Byonik Laser Facial: Beauty Triggered by your Heart Beat. With every beat of the heart, the Byonik releases energy into the skin allowing hyaluronic acid gel and antioxidants to enter the skin cells directly. The combined release of red and near-infrared laser light ensures the energy is transferred to all layers of the skin simultaneously. Cell processes are stimulated, elasticity improves and the skin gains volume while welcoming amplified definition. The effects are instant and hugely gratifying. The best accessory will forever be flawless skin, appointments available via link in bio.

22.01.2022 Believe it or not, there’s quite a bit of research behind the notion of ‘beauty sleep.’ Sleep is when some of the most important internal and epidermal recovery takes place, so whether you’re late to bed, or early to rise, sleep is a very important step of all skin routines. In fact, sleep deprivation is said to affect wound healing, collagen growth, skin hydration and texture. Inflammation has been found higher in sleep-deprived patients stimulating acne outbreaks, ecz...ema, psoriasus and skin allergies. Research shows that even just one night of poor sleep can cause the likes of hanging eyelids, swollen eyes, darker under-eye circles, a paler complexion, more wrinkles/fine lines and sagging (corners) of the mouth! As always, MISS FRANC is about that balance. It’s one thing to embrace injectables, regular facials and clean, quality skincare for beauty that shines, but it’s so important to work with the everyday rhythms and regulations of the body how can you better support its natural cleansing and regenerating systems (it’s an amazing machine!). Sleep is crucial, not only to beauty, but general mental and physical wellbeing, preserving each for a longer journey here on planet earth. So, switch off the screens earlier (avoid blue light come the evening), resist coffee/alcohol in the afternoon, attempt consistent resting and rising patterns, and reach for supplements such as Gingko Biloba, Lavender and Magnesium for a calming, relaxed, sleep-induced state. #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial See more

22.01.2022 Julia Roberts eat your heart out! To balance this clients gorgeous, big beaming smile, MISS FRANC added 2ml across four appointments (0.5ml per treatment) to ensure lips appear natural yet prominent when animated. Why does MISS FRANC prefer to build lips gradually? Because dermal filler loves scar tissue, integrating with the fibrous tissue for a longer lasting result. The more needle pokes, the more scar tissue and as they say, good things take time. #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial

Shes also one of the Australian hairdressing industrys most regarded educators and runs MCM Imports (bringing us hair-loving delights such as Christophe Robin).

21.01.2022 What is blue light (HEV) emitted from tech screens doing to your skin? One Synergie scientist speaks the truth. ‘In terms of geek-speak, High Energy Visible (HEV) light refers to the higher-frequency, shorter wavelengths of light in the violet-blue band of the visible light spectrum (380-500nm). Most blue light comes from the sun and constitutes between 25-20% of the light generated from the sun. HEV is also emitted from TV’s, laptops, desktops, certain li...ght sources (particularly LED’s) and smartphones. Scientific evidence points to the conclusion that HEV light does harm our skin cells. Just like UVA and UVB causes free radical damage, so too does blue light. Furthermore, blue light has been linked to direct damage to the mitochondria, the ‘mini organs’ in our cells that provide all the energy we need for our bodies to function. A recent study looked at the effect of HEV exposure on the genes in our skin. The study concluded that HEV directly impacts our natural response to inflammation and reduces our ability to repair and heal the skin barrier. Blue light also alters normal melanin production and may help to explain why some individuals with melasma still suffer with hyperpigmentation despite using high levels of sunscreen which provides UVA and UVB protection but no HEV protection.’ Thankfully there are a few powerful ingredients able to protect the skin. Mineral makeup uses iron oxides to filter and prevent penetration of blue light, while anything high in antioxidants (green tea, vitamin C and lycopene) is a sure bet to neutralise free radical damage. MISS FRANC is host to a myriad of blue light protecting products suitable to all skin types.

20.01.2022 HAND REJUVENATION. Yes, it’s a thing! MISS FRANC treats many hands with dermal filler for those seeking that beautiful, cushiony effect. It’s no secret, that as years go by, our body loses collagen and elastin with hands and decolletage two of the first areas to show unwanted signs of ageing. Dermal filler (in conjunction with LED and Laser Genesis) turns back the clock; hiding veins, covering and blending-in with the bones for a youthful, plumpness you’ll love. Enquire on your next MISS FRANC consultation. #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial

20.01.2022 You were born with the features you have for a reason. Every feature is linked to a part of your personality, and they all work together to represent who you are. Thank you #JeanHaner, Author of The Wisdom of Your Face. This is why MISS FRANC always treats to maintain the integrity of each unique beauty that sits before her. Natural, refined enhancements to bring the best out of you. Book your consultation at missfranc.com.au #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial

19.01.2022 Why does MISS FRANC recommend light therapy to so many clients, and what is the difference between red, blue and near-infrared? RED LIGHT supercharges our cells triggering a cascade of skin enhancing effects. Cell renewal is accelerated boosting collagen and elastin synthesis while increasing hydration. BLUE LIGHT targets bacteria in the sebaceous glands which cause spots. When bacteria absorbs blue light it triggers a natural photochem...ical reaction releasing singlet oxygen. Whats that? Singlet oxygen has a powerful antibacterial action to help eliminate spots. NEAR-INFRARED light is absorbed in the skins deepest layers and stimulates cellular activity with advanced rejuvenation benefits. Increased blood circulation brings vital oxygen and nutrients to accelerate repair and build strength in sensitive skin. Schedule your appointment via link in bio. See more

17.01.2022 Beauty in Numbers: 50s In the Fifties, we start to really ramp up the retinol, hyaluronic acid and an even greater focus is placed on B serums for ample hydration. High doses of peptides are introduced, and we start to treat the neck, décolletage and also the hands plumping with skin needling and laser to rid pigmentation and re-build collagen (sunscreen on the hands everyday please!). Classified a medical clinic, MISS FRANC clients are privileged with ...access to stronger doses of active skincare (such as the Synergie MD range) for more superior results. In the 50s, we steer clear of deep clean facials as pores are generally not harbouring as much bacteria. This is because, generally speaking, the 50s demographic is not exposed to as many bacteria thriving environments (workplaces and so on). Rather, deep peels help to plump out those fine lines (a great option for those opposed to Botox and fillers). On injectables, it becomes all about restructuring with filler, replacing volume and rebuilding structure," says Francine. MISS FRANC is no booked until late May.

17.01.2022 MISS FRANC recommends 4 things when working away that lick of mascara or serious statement eye. 1. Reach for a makeup remover specific to the eye area. Micellar water is OK, but I always ask my clients to then remove the product with water and/or a soft face cloth (or cotton disc) to eradicate any micellar residue. Be gentle! It can help to saturate a cotton disc with your remover of choice and hold on the area for 5 seconds or more. This loosens the pigme...nt and makes for an easier, less abrasive clean. 2. Follow with a gentle cleanser and circulate gently all over the face twice in the evening. We offer 3 gentle cleansers to avoid stripping the skin of its natural oils (depleting the protective barrier). Side note Sophia Loren moisturised her body with oil Le oil after showering! If it’s good enough for Sophia, it’s good enough for me ... which takes us to point 3. 3. My favourite old fashioned way (when there is nothing suitable in the bathroom) is trusted olive oil! Warning. It can sting the eye area, but the oil leaves nothing behind. I will still always rinse away the residue with a gentle face cloth or a quick cleanse in the shower. 4. Lastly the dreaded face wipes! Do I love them, NO. However, such wipes are effective at removing heavier makeup first before the cleanser takes away the remains. Always opt for a more sensitive ‘water wipe’ no nasties or skin irritants. Lastly, remember the skin around your eyes is very thin/fragile and how you ‘wipe’ will impact the laxity of the skin in years to come and never forget a silky, hydrating eye cream before bed. We have a few great options available at MISS FRANC. #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial See more

16.01.2022 RE(TREAT)). To our gorgeous followers #WFH, nows the time to get your weekly mask routine in check. Self isolation and increased time #WFH leaves little excuse to avoid healthy skin habits. If you didnt have time before, you most probably do now, so start by feeding the skin with a once-weekly mask treatment, says MISS FRANC. As per our last post, go makeup-free wherever possible and really try to be regimented with essential, daily serum application (A, B and C please!). MISS FRANC has some beautiful masks and serums in-store and is offering complimentary shipping (and FaceTime consults!) for all product purchases. #regram @clairethomsonmakeup #gwynethpaltrow #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial

14.01.2022 Here comes the sun. And while MISS FRANC urges SPF application every four hours, 365 days a year, increased sun exposure paired with the more intense UVA/UVB rays of summer, make this mantra a must for the months ahead. So, is SPF 30+ suffice and what is the difference (in protection) between 50+ and 100+? First of all, its beneficial to know the difference between UVA and UVB radiation. UVB is responsible for sunburn, while UVA reaches deeper into the sk...in initiating that always unwelcome ageing. Both cancer causing and not something we should embrace regularly, for long periods and minus SPF. And did you know SPF only measures protection from UVB radiation? To ensure youre getting equal protection from both types of radiation, check the ingredients list. The product should contain 3% avobenzone or at least 15% zinc oxide. Both ingredients block UVA. On higher-SPF products, the truth is, anything over 50 is only marginally better at shielding from UVB (according to both the EWG and the Skin Cancer Foundation). SPF 30 blocks nearly 97% of UVB radiation, SPF 50 blocks about 98%, and SPF 100 blocks about 99%. For this reason, experts say sunscreens with an SPF higher than 50 arent actually worth buying due to an insignificant difference in protection and inclination for the wearer to stay out in the sun longer. In short, anything between 30+ and 50+ is a good choice when supported with regular re-application, shade, hats and sunglasses. MISS FRANC of course asks all clients to opt for a 50+ sunscreen with a multitude of options available in-clinic for all skin types. #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial See more

14.01.2022 Missing that optimum skin health and undetectable wrinkle reduction synonymous with MISS FRANC? While we cant promise equivalent results, bone broth is definitely one, easy way to plump collagen, smooth skin and up that youthful glow between visits. Bone broth has actually been around for centuries and is based on the foods consumed by hunter-gatherers from thousands of years ago (meat, poultry, fish, fruits and vegetables). Jam-packed with collagen (which has oozed out of t...he joints and bones of your preferred protein during cooking), and brimming with nutrients responsible for energy and collagen production for more youthful looking skin, its a yes from MISS FRANC. So much so, Francine has her own super-broth recipe, here for your Sunday cooking: 2 - 3 kilos of Demeter Biodynamic bones/marrow 10 litres of water 2 - 3 onions peeled and halved a bunch of celery, finely chopped 1 carrot finely chopped (unpeeled) 1 full garlic bulb halved 1 small handful of seaweed Herbs of choice (MF loves fresh rosemary, thyme and turmeric root) Combine all ingredients and slow cook for 24 hours. Strain and enjoy as is or with further (above ground) vegetables, and spices for a heartier meal.

14.01.2022 Just because the world has stopped, doesnt mean we have to. Of course things are not as they once were, freedom has been put on hold along with many of our mental and physical support networks, but its OK. Humans for all our floors are one of them most adaptable species on the planet. So lets try our best to adapt, have some self-compassion and consider alternative means to stimulate mind, body and future success. Self-motivating books are a great start and perhaps its ti...me to master meditation once and for all. Not the greatest cook in the world? Nows the time to challenge that culinary block. Pick up the phone, speak to Nan or that friend whos always on your mind (but you can just never find the time to call). Enhance your skill set with an online course, update your CV, your LinkedIn profile and get on top of that ever building admin pile (thats what MISS FRANC is doing!). Curate your Instagram, do a live Pilates class and practice being patient. Lets come out of this bigger, better human beings - only good things can come of that. See more

12.01.2022 GO NUDE. Self-isolation is definitely a challenge, but its also an opportunity to let yourself breathe and this should include your skin! At this time MISS FRANC asks that you apply a little social distancing between skin and foundation. Now is the time to allow skin - the bodys largest organ - to function as nature intended; to protect us. Skin hosts natural flora that we dont take advantage of, rather choking its benefits with all sorts of makeup, says Francine. For this reason its so important to select your makeup brands carefully, ideally avoiding occlusive silicones (especially if you suffer from acne). Want to kick-start that glow? MISS FRANC is home to a range of treatments and supporting products for all skin needs. #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial #WFH

12.01.2022 DOES DARKER SKIN WRINKLE LESS? Well it depends ... There are two factors that cause skin to age: chronological ageing and photoageing. None of us can avoid chronological ageing like it or not, we cannot stop the passing years from leaving their mark. But photoageing is a different matter. It does vary according to your skin colour, a result of the varying degrees of pigment that we produce.... The darker your skin, the larger the pockets in skin cells known as melanosomes, and these contain the sticky pigment melanin. Very pale skin produces almost no melanin, while Asian skins produce a yellowish type of melanin called phaeomelanin, and black skins produce the darkest, thickest melanin of all known as eumelanin. Its not just the size of these pockets in skin cells that differs, but also the density of melanin packed within them. In black skin the melanin is packed so tightly that it absorbs and scatters more light, giving you more protection from the suns ultraviolet rays. Surprisingly few studies have been conducted on this topic in recent years. But if you go back to 1979 there was a study from Kays Kaidbey and his colleagues in the United States, which found that on average 55% of ultraviolet A rays penetrate Caucasian skin while fewer than 18% get through African-American skin. This is why photoageing is delayed in people with dark skin (thanks BBC.com). Image via #Pinterest. #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial See more

12.01.2022 IN HIS SKIN. MISS FRANC is so pleased to report that (most) men are now well and truly comfortable with talking about (and seeking out) professional skincare. I sent a male client home with samples recently. He used them as prescribed, loved the results and when theyd finished, switched to his flatmates supermarket products. Noticing the difference instantly, he was back in the clinic at the soonest convenience and not only invested in a simple Luzern re...gime for himself, but his friend in Melbourne, too! According to MISS FRANC men are now actively researching clinics that offer the treatments and results they seek, men dont want fluffy experiences and a barrage of products laid on them, simplicity is the key. They want results driven services and skincare a deep clean and two-to-three step skin process.

11.01.2022 PREVENT DRY SKIN. While the depths of winter bring many a welcome indulgence (cue: open fires, lush layering and rich, slow cooked comfort meals), dry skin is almost guaranteed for those who dont take the care to nourish and protect. August is by far the harshest, so theres still time to prevent unsightly flaking and tightness. 1. Dry air, dry skin simple. Increase the moisture level at home with a cool air humidifier and avoid cr...anking the heat to Sahara heights. Moderate is best. 2. MISS FRANC has always believed in Beauty and Balance skin health from the inside-out. Up your intake of fats via nutrient-rich treats such as walnuts and avocados. And as always, high intakes of water (unfortunately the same amount of pinot noir will not help we all know how dehydrating alcohol is, so try not to overdo it). 3. GENTLY exfoliate once-to-twice a week. If your skin has not been adequately prepared, no amount of serums will show the results you seek. MISS FRANC recommends Luzerns Micro-Exfoliant Deep Hydrating Scrub for most skin types. 4. VITAMIN C PLEASE. Summer, autumn, winter or spring, skin faces daily attack from free radicals causing sunspots and premature ageing. Synergie SupremaC+ is a MISS FRANC bestseller for a reason. 5. Just as our wardrobe layers increase, we should enhance the weight of our moisturiser come the cooler months. The skins barrier is broken down at a rapid rate in winter. Chat to MISS FRANC/your skin consultant on the best selection for you. 6. Who doesnt love a steaming hot shower come wintertime? Bad news. This extreme heat only fuels skins dehydration and applies to face and body. Keep the temperature moderate and for the body, apply a thick moisturiser within 60 seconds of stepping out of the shower. This will help skin retain hydration overnight. Boost your winter skin regime with a signature MISS FRANC HydraFacial. Schedule via link in bio.

10.01.2022 SUMMER SKIN STARTS NOW. Did you know the skin on your dcolletage produces less oil than the face? This makes it more delicate, damage prone and therefore one of the first places to show signs of premature ageing. Weekly exfoliation (for ample product penetration), daily SPF and serum application, plus a hydration-rich moisturiser are a great start to treat and prevent, but for those with a little more damage than most, MISS FRANC has the solution (and winter is the perfect t...ime to treat). IPL Pigmentation: This non-invasive phototherapy treatment works to stimulate cellular turnover and increase blood flow to speed up healing and boost collagen production. The ultimate treatment for pigmentation, rosacea, broken capillaries and enlarged pores. Excel-V: IPLs latest sister-act: This state of the art precision laser treats todays most common skin concerns for clear, glowing skin - no filter required.

10.01.2022 THE POWER OF LIGHT. Upon receiving a MISS FRANC Cosmelan treatment (the worlds leading professional depigmentation method), this client showed delayed healing after 3 weeks. For any MF client experiencing post treatment bruising or slow repair, there is nothing more effective than regular light treatment to stimulate cellular turnover, increase blood flow, accelerate healing and boost collagen production. While the treatment is non-contact often causing clients to question i...ts efficiency, these results are proof of LEDs brilliant benefits. Image 1 shows the clients skin 3 weeks post Cosmelan, while image 2 shows skin following just one MISS FRANC LED treatment (redness reduced by 90%). The last image showcases skin following 4 light treatments completely repaired and glowing with health. Book your consultation at missfranc.com.au

07.01.2022 The holidays are upon us! As work winds up and caution meets the wind, your skincare routine should be more diligent than ever. Here are a few holiday #skinsins to keep in mind as we hit the beach, bar and beyond this season. Skin Sin #1: Don’t Skip Sleep! Less sleep (quality and quantity) is a sure way to tired, sagging skin (see our previous post, How Sleep Effects Skin). Skin Sin #2: Sticking to your Old Skincare Routine. If you plan on spending regular time in the sun, st...op using retinol products (and AHA’s) about a week prior. Avoid any heavy, treatment-based moisturisers during the day (to avoid breaking out), and always always! select a moisturiser with SPF properties. This should not be your primary source of sun protection, however. A sole SPF 50+ product must be used in conjunction - and applied every 4 hours. Skin Sin #3: Lack of Consistency: Deviating from your regular skincare routine can lead to misbehaving skin, so keep it consistent for the holidays. Skin Sin #4: It always seems to be a mad rush to the finish. Skin conditions such as eczema, rosacea and acne can flare with the immune weakening effects of stress, so embrace the true essence of holidays, and hit relax mode. MISS FRANC’s top travel accessories for skin? Synergie's Über Zinc is a hydrating moisturiser formulated with 21% pure zinc oxide offering broad spectrum UVA and UVB solar protection. The non-comedogenic formula does not clog pores and uses pure green tea for its potent antioxidant properties. Luzern's Luzern L'Essentials Pure Cleansing Creme is a luxurious, moisture-rich cream perfect for washing away surface impurities without stripping, drying or irritating - a great choice when we're double cleansing more often (to rid re-application of zincs and sunscreen). #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #holidayskin #sydneyfacial #facial

06.01.2022 GRADUALITY. The reason MISS FRANC lip transformations look so natural, no matter the face. Less is more over time. Not only does this deliver longevity in results (due to ample integration of dermal filler and scar tissue), but ensures the evolution is virtually undetectable. This patient has received a total of 2.5mls over three treatments: 1ml in the first seating, 0.5ml in the second, and 1ml in the third. Courtesy of a gradual approach, this particular patient is required to visit MISS FRANC just once a year for maintenance. #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial

05.01.2022 WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS, squeeze and drink for enhanced skin health. Its true! The humble lemon is one of natures greatest gifts for skin and body. Heres a few reasons why: Drinking lemon water in the morning on an empty stomach can help balance your body by inducing a more alkaline state which is known to be anti-inflammatory to the skin and the body Loaded with Vitamin C, lemon stimulates collagen production and helps to reduce signs of ageing, improve skin textur...e, firmness and may help prevent fine lines Equally bursting with antioxidants, lemon water aids reduction in free radical damage by improving the reparative capacity of the skin and DNA Lemon water can induce skin detoxification, forcing out impurities And the benefits continue! Ayurvedic medicine believes the sour lemon taste helps stimulate your agni. In ayurvedic medicine, a strong agni jump-starts the digestive system, allowing you to digest food more easily and helping to prevent the build-up of toxins Of course juice must be from fresh lemons and consistency is key. Also, were talking more than a simple wedge! Juice from half to one whole lemon in warm or cold water is a good approach. Add a sprinkle of turmeric, slice of fresh ginger or dash of cinnamon to elevate the health benefits even further! #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial #skinhealth

05.01.2022 2. PIGMENT INHIBITORS. For those with pigmented skin, nows the time to apply your Tyrosinase Inhibitor. Whats this? Tyrosinase is a crucial enzyme in synthesizing melanin through melanogenesis. Inhibitors work to restrict this catalytic activity, minimising the deepening and overall appearance of pigment and are suitable to most skin types! Tyrosinase Inhibitor actually blocks melanin pigment in the skin, laying it dormant/inactive. ...The product prevents the areas in question from getting darker and is a great way to brighten the complexion, says Francine. MISS FRANC is home to two hero Tyrosinase Inhibitors: Synergie VaNish and Luzerns Serum Absolut Radiance. Delivered to your door, with compliments.

03.01.2022 The light at the end of the tunnel is in sight! While for some there is no good to come of this global pandemic (and we have a long road ahead), it has been so interesting to hear recognition for the lessons learned as a result of this new, slower way of living. No matter health, wealth or celebrity, we have all been forced into an unfamiliar existence. Consequently, many of us have grown - as parents, partners, professionals, lovers, creatives and importantly, as a community. What a journey. With restrictions slowly lifting, were getting so excited to see you all in the not too distant future ... you might even notice a few changes at the clinic! #missfranceffect #missfrancsydney #skin #beauty #sydneyfacial #facial
