Stay true to you! Dr. Tess Mauricio wants you to be your own inspiration. The celebrity dermatologist, who counts Cardi B, Priyanka Chopra, and Kim and Khloé Kardashian as patients, sat down with ET to share her tips for looking like you, only better.
“The idea is to help patients look like the best version of themselves, not someone else,” she shares.
To help get you there, Mauricio offers a lineup of options at her M Beauty Clinic locations in Beverly Hills and San Diego, California, including lasers, ultrasound, radiofrequency microneedling, injectables, and regenerative treatments to address everything from texture, tone, and firmness, to wrinkles, pigmentation, and skin laxity.
Think of it as more of a refresh than a makeover, with her most popular treatment, The Time Machine Procedure™.
“It is our signature nonsurgical regenerative aesthetics protocol designed to help patients achieve natural-looking rejuvenation by combining advanced technologies with regenerative approaches in a single treatment plan. … Rather than relying on one treatment to do everything, we thoughtfully combine different tools to address skin quality, collagen production, and visible signs of aging,” she says.
Still, the perfect beauty blend looks a little different for everyone.
“We incorporate the UltraClear® Cold Fiber Laser, which offers multiple treatment modules that allow us to tailor the level and depth of resurfacing to each patient’s needs, and can combine it with PRP or PRFM, and where clinically appropriate, other specialized treatments, alongside topical peptides and targeted skincare,” she explains.
“I’m a believer in treatments that improve the quality of the skin itself. … Every protocol is customized. It’s about finding what works for each person rather than following every new trend. … The key is choosing the right combination.”
And the upkeep continues long after your appointment ends.
“Consistent, appropriate maintenance can keep your skin glowing through the years without surgery. … We create a personalized home care plan and talk with patients about optimizing sleep, managing stress, nutrition, hormones, and overall health, which is especially important for regenerative aesthetics since we’re asking our bodies and immune systems to help repair the skin naturally. … In-office treatments can do a lot, but daily habits between visits and our overall health and lifestyle matter too,” Mauricio notes.
But hitting pause on aging also means putting a stop to certain habits.
“Too much sun too soon after a treatment can be a problem, and tanning or skipping sunscreen can undo progress and contribute to future damage. People can also irritate their skin by piling on too many strong products or by restarting active ingredients too soon after a procedure. … More isn’t always better,” the doctor warns.
A light touch can go a long way with injectables, too.
“People can go overboard with fuller when you try to add more volume instead of restoring facial harmony and balance. Filler can be useful for the right patient, and when performed artistically, it can be powerful, but it isn’t the answer to every concern.”
After all, Mauricio’s favorite kind of before-and-after is one you can’t quite put your finger on.
“The key is healthy-looking skin at every age, not to look like someone else. … People want to age in reverse without looking like they have had work done. … My patients know they can look natural while achieving their goals.”
