Are you curious about how you can stay yourself despite the aging process? Writer and columnist Stella Bergsma offers a refreshing perspective.
In the latest episode of Aēstalks, she shares her experiences about aging, beauty and her treatment at Aēstec. With her unique view, Stella shows that small changes can make a big difference.
“We live in a world where looks are highly valued. People like you better when you're pretty, and especially as a woman, you get comments if you don't comply,” says Stella. However, getting older has changed her view. Instead of focusing on superficial judgements, Stella now values rest, happiness and meaning more. But why choose a treatment anyway?
”Feeling better inside, that's what it's all about.” - Stella Bergsma, 54 years
Stella was open about the treatments she had undergone. She opted for fillers in the corners of her mouth and Botox for her frown line. “The corners of my mouth drooped slightly, while the corners of my mouth naturally curled up. I didn't like seeing that. The Botox makes my frown less present. Now it doesn't point down like that anymore.”
Stella explains how she felt after recent treatment. ”The only thing I really see is that my appearance is calmer. I feel more like myself, like I've always known myself. After all, you recognize yourself with a young face longer than with the signs of aging. The treatment brought a subtle change, but had a major effect on her feelings. It's not just about what you see in the mirror, it's also about how you feel inside.
For Stella, it's not about one thing or the other. “Sometimes I want to keep track of everything and look beautiful. And sometimes I let go. It's like choosing a nice outfit or staying in your jogging suit. It doesn't always have to be perfect. Both can co-exist.”
Stella's story proves that getting older doesn't mean losing yourself. With the right balance, you can stay just a step ahead of time and subtly refresh your look. Learn how our expert doctors help you — in a way that's right for you.
