    Hollywood Miracle Therapy

    Everything you need to know about Hollywood’s hottest anti-aging secret

    It’s hard to believe the beautiful actress railing against plastic surgery when she looks exactly like she did in that decade-old rom-com. However, the experts at Bella MD, Dallas’ premier medical spa, say these age-defying celebs aren’t lying about going under the knife: They just know about Ultherapy, the only FDA-approved non-invasive treatment for lifting the skin on the neck, chin, and brow.

    Here, Bella MD master aesthetician Sarah Humphrey spills all the secrets and gives five reasons why you should check out Hollywood’s favorite miracle treatment.

    1. A natural process equals a natural lift.
    Ultherapy uses ultrasound waves that cross deep into the tissue to denature the collagen, and therefore, stimulate new collagen growth. Essentially, the natural process pumps up the volume where you need it most.

    “But it’s important to note that Ultherapy won’t give instant gratification,” Humphrey says. “It can take up to six months before you see results. So it’s gradual, but a lot of people like that it’s a natural approach.”

    In other words, you’re not going to leave Bella MD looking like a whole new, unrecognizable person. Instead, you’ll look better and better over several months.

    2. It improves the skin in ways surgery can’t.
    “Ultherapy not only delivers a beautiful lift and boost,” Humphrey says, “but it really makes the skin look better than what you could get with a surgical facelift.” A facelift only cuts and lifts, she explains, and doesn’t actually treat the skin like Ultherapy does.

    3. Everyone can afford it.
    “I know of women who have spent up to $30,000 for a surgical lift,” Humphrey says. “So Ultherapy is significantly cheaper than a facelift, usually a quarter of what a surgeon will quote you.”

    Humphrey says that Ultherapy is priced per pulse, which means the cost is adjusted for those who are only aiming to improve vertical lines above the lip versus someone treating their full face and neck.

    4. You can enhance at any age.
    Let’s say the day you turn 30, you notice a slight sag in your brow. Are you going to promptly correct it with a major medical procedure? Not likely.

    “A lot of younger patients are doing this for preventative reasons,” Humphrey says. “I see patients in their 20s all the way through 60s coming in for Ultherapy at Bella MD. Everyone can benefit from some collagen stimulation.”

    5. Easy in, easy out, and not a vacation day wasted.
    Two magical words: no downtime. “You can have minor swelling or minor bruising, but that’s just about it,” Humphrey says. In fact, most of Humphrey’s patients can go right back to work.

    What’s more, Bella MD is conveniently located in University Park near the corner of Sherry Lane and Preston Road, and parking is a breeze to boot.

    To find out more about Bella MD’s Ultherapy treatment, the simplest way to take years off your appearance, visit www.bellamd.com or call 214-378-6500.

    New giant Quge-tip from Dallas-based Q-tip sells out in 24 hours

    Q-tip's Quge-tip

    A giant version of an everyday product has sold out in 24 hours: Called the Quge-tip, it's a 6-foot version of the iconic Q-tip, the beauty staple that's been around for more than a century.

    Measuring nearly six feet from tip to tip, Quge-tips feature enlarged swabs and a sturdy stick modeled after the original Q-tips swabs design.

    The Quge-tip was released on December 9 and sold exclusively online in limited quantities for $35. Alas, according to a spokesperson for Dallas-based Elida Beauty, the parent company of Q-tip, the product flew off the virtual shelf.

    "Now that they’re sold out, Q-tips is surprising fans with social giveaways," the spokesperson says.

    The Quge-tip is one of two products just released by Dallas companies — both of which feel like they could be April Fools Day jokes — except that both are for real.

    Dave & Buster's Claw Purse
    The Dallas-based eatertainment chain is leveling up holiday gifting with the debut of the Claw Purse, a limited-edition purse designed by Chain. The Claw Purse is inspired by one of the brand's most iconic games — the claw machine — and according to a release, is "the season's most unexpected fashion statement" for anyone who loves bold style, nostalgia, and a little bit of play.

    To mark a milestone for the brand, the Claw Purse launches alongside the expansion of Dave & Buster's Human Crane, a viral, full-body game experience that turns guests into the claw — where they are lowered down into a bin of huge prizes to grab whatever they choose.

    Beginning in December 2025, the Human Crane will appear in over 112 Dave & Buster's locations with additional stores rolling out nationwide throughout the season.

    But back to the purse: It made its debut at Chain's Holiday House, an event at the company's HQ in L.A., where "it quickly became a crowd favorite among creators, stylists, and culture icons," or so says the release. Which also calls this "the first creative collaboration" between Dave & Buster's and Chain, bringing together Dave & Buster's beloved gameplay with Chain's signature culture-forward point of view. So maybe there will be more collaborations in the future.

    The Quge-tip is a nearly six-foot supersized version of the "iconic" Q-tip cotton swab, first invented in 1923 and the go-to for beauty, baby care, first aid, cleaning, and everyday moments that call for a gentle, precise touch.

    The six-foot Quge-tip features enlarged swabs and a sturdy stick modeled after the original Q-tips swabs design — offering a new way to experience an iconic tool at a dramatically large scale, designed as a playful, oversized tribute.

    The release nots that Quge-tips tap into a rising trend of consumers using Q-tips swabs for alternative tasks, which now make up a meaningful share of cotton swab use: From dusting high shelves and cleaning hard-to-reach corners to large-scale art projects.

    The six-foot Quge-tip features enlarged swabs and a sturdy stick modeled after the original Q-tips swabs design — offering a new way to experience an iconic tool at a dramatically large scale.

    The company insists it's a real thing — they do a very funny video mocking late-night ads for cheap products — and that after debuting at qugetips.com on December 9, they sold out of their initial run. One note: They do not reveal how many Quge-tips were sold. It could just be, like 10 that were for sale.

    There's a chance they'll be doing another issue, and they encourage interested shoppers to diligently follow their social media.
