              Speaking Topics Frequently Requested

Beware of the Latest & Greatest:

American consumers receive an overwhelming amount of information from advertisements, magazine articles, and news stories espousing the latest techniques to look years younger in just a few minutes. Consumers spend millions on the newest lotion, potion, or laser device in order to achieve instant results. Unfortunately, many of these celebrated products and procedures are unsubstantiated or lack sufficient clinical data to support their grandiose claims.  Additionally some hyped products and procedures may actually cause adverse reactions and complications. 

Dr. Dayan, a Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon and an innovative medical researcher, conducts studies including FDA trials on new products and procedures often before they are readily available to the general public. During this course, Dr. Dayan discusses the newest products, techniques, and provides honest feedback on them. He uncovers why many products which once were popular are no longer on the market, and why they are not available to the public.

Dr. Dayan also dispels the myths and discusses the realities about cosmetic products, chemical peel, and microdermabrasion. Audiences learn how to critically evaluate before and after photos and are given the tools for recognizing a hoax. Also discover the 15 questions you should ask before undergoing any new procedure.


Holistic & Non-Surgical Alternatives:

Did you know that today’s bad habits may lead to tomorrow’s increased risk for skin cancer? Years of sun overexposure, smoking, or bad nutrition have deleterious effects on your skin. Interventions and measures adopted today can help prevent accelerated skin aging and long term problems such as skin cancer. You do not have to go to extremes to look and feel your best!

Dr. Dayan will share with his audience secret techniques that have been handed down for thousands of years, and provide generational secrets that often can be found right in your refrigerator.

Finally, the audience will learn about laser techniques, become educated in the ever popular, but controversial wonder drug Botox, and find out the latest information about techniques and procedures on the horizon to help you maintain a healthy and youthful look.
