Ask the Editor

Most of the answers on Weehawken Aesthetics Answers began as a question somebody sent through this form, so here's how to get the most out of it, in steps, the way I'd have put it on the board.

First, pick a topic from the menu if one fits. It isn't required, but it helps me sort.

Second, write your question, or name the page and quote the line that's wrong, dated or unclear. Suggestions for a question I haven't answered yet are always welcome.

Third, leave yourself out of it. Please don't add medications, conditions, test results or pictures of your skin, because the question works fine without them.

Last, the boundary. I taught science for decades, but I never treated anyone, so I can't give medical advice, judge whether a treatment would suit you or arrange an appointment. If you're having a reaction after a treatment, contact the practice where it was done, and for anything severe, get urgent care straight away. I'll reply to the email address you give.
