"  Fresh Hair   Appearing in the subject line of too many TMZ blog posts not only boosts the insurance premiums for a star&amp;#039;s latest film, it might even require hiring an on-set hairstylist trained in damage control. &amp;quot;We call them &amp;#039;The Young and the Tressless,&amp;#039; &amp;quot; says one stylist beloved for her ability to make even sparse wisps look full-bodied. &amp;quot;Older actresses actually have healthier hair, since they take better care of themselves.&amp;quot; Although strands do get thinner as we age, young Hollywood&amp;#039;s constant flat-ironing and blowouts, weekly dye jobs, and Pinkberry diets can lead to early hair breakage and loss.  In a British study published by the Royal Society of Medicine Press Limited, panelists were asked to guess the age of a woman based on viewing just the back of her head. While frizzy and dull hair increased the perception of age, coiffing did make a difference: The same woman, after getting some TLC from a stylist (who simply smoothed away snarls or defuzzed ringlets), was thought to be, on average, four years younger. &amp;quot;Once you think the blow-dry is complete, put in another five minutes,&amp;quot; says Richard Joseph, owner of the Richard Joseph SalonSpa in Birmingham, Alabama. &amp;quot;That extra time is the difference between looking good and looking perfect.&amp;quot; That same study also found that subjects with locks shoulder-length or longer were believed to be more than four years younger than those with shorter hair. Ashley Javier, who has snipped himself a niche among Manhattan&amp;#039;s longhaired socialites, puts clients on hair vitamins: &amp;quot;They know they&amp;#039;re working because their roots grow in faster.&amp;quot; GET INSPIRED BY SPRING &amp;#039;09 RUNWAY HAIR AND BEAUTY  SPRING &amp;#039;09 RUNWAY TRENDS TO KEEP YOU YOUNG  Read on: Products to try for fresh hair &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  Fresh Hair: Products to Try  1.

Read on: Eye Dos &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  Eye Dos  Even those young enough to still get carded worry about undereye circles and crow&amp;#039;s feet, which can make their debut by the early twenties. Because skin around the eyes is thinner than on the rest of the face, &amp;quot;age shows up there first,&amp;quot; says dermatologist Macrene Alexiades- Armenakas, MD, PhD, an assistant clinical professor at Yale University School of Medicine. Fortunately, the area also reacts quickly to treatment. Cut out sugar and carbs on Monday, and by Thursday, you&amp;#039;ll look younger, promises New York City dermatologist Nicolas Perricone, MD. &amp;quot;If you follow an anti-inflammatory diet for three days, circulation improves, which can reduce puffiness and dark circles,&amp;quot; he says. &amp;quot;The excess fluid will drain, and you&amp;#039;ll have a smoother look.&amp;quot; At dermatologist David Goldberg&amp;#039;s New York City office, midtown executives line up for 20-minute sessions in front of his OmniLux Gentle Wave LED light machine, which has been clinically proven to boost cell turnover. New handheld options let you bring the technology home, but if you don&amp;#039;t have the patience to flash your entire face, target rays just around the eyes. &amp;quot;The thin tissue responds very quickly to LEDs, so you&amp;#039;ll see rapid results,&amp;quot; Perricone says. Botox is the go-to injectable to relax furrows above the brow and soften crow&amp;#039;sfeet, &amp;quot;but it won&amp;#039;t change skin texture,&amp;quot; says New York City and Miami dermatologist Frederic Brandt, MD, who recommends a few smoothing sessions of Fraxel (a tightening laser). Palm Beach dermatologist Kenneth Beer, MD, is also a fan of high-tech Fraxel. &amp;quot;It works beautifully around the eyes,&amp;quot; he says. But he keeps it old-school when it comes to daily care. &amp;quot;Retin-A works remarkably well. It&amp;#039;s still my top choice.&amp;quot; Read on: Products to try &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  Eye Dos: Products to Try  1. Bausch &amp;amp;amp; Lomb Preservision Eye Vitamins contain antioxidants that fight free radicals, as well as lutein, key for retina health. 2.

Makeup artist and founder of Lorac, Carol Shaw, packed a highlighter, concealer, and roller-ball applicator into her Lorac Double Feature so that &amp;quot;you can hide dark circles&amp;quot;\u2014plus, the massaging action can help boost circulation. Read on: Lip Service &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  Lip Service  Upper lip crinkles earned the name smoker&amp;#039;s lines for a reason: The act of puckering, plus proximity to smoke, deepen those vertical lines. New, liquidy versions of hyaluronic-acid-based volumizing fillers (such as Restylane Touch, which is awaiting FDA approval) let derms target each individual crevice, while other docs prefer simply to relax the pout. &amp;quot;I think it&amp;#039;s a mistake to fill the vertical spokes,&amp;quot; Beer says. &amp;quot;Instead, I soften the muscle that wraps around the mouth. A few units of Botox can really help.&amp;quot; And collagen, the favorite filler from the &amp;#039;80s, is making a comeback. Evolence, approved by the FDA in June, has the same plumping effect as the original, but with potential collagen-boosting benefits, too. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s more than just injecting a blob to fill an area,&amp;quot; says New York City plastic surgeon Z. Paul Lorenc, MD. In published reports, Evolence has been shown to increase the skin&amp;#039;s production of natural collagen and blood vessels around the treated site. The sun also hits the mouth hard. &amp;quot;Because the pout sticks out, the upper lip gets more sun damage than the surrounding areas,&amp;quot; Perricone says. Derms caution that the high-shine finish of some lip lacquers could magnify UV rays, increasing the risk of skin cancer, and recommend switching to an SPF-laced gloss. If you experience chronic chapped lips, breakouts, or irritation around the mouth (all signs of either perioral or lip dermatitis), Perricone suggests switching to a different brand of toothpaste or cutting out foods like citrus fruits and tomatoes. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a process of elimination to figure out what&amp;#039;s triggering your irritation,&amp;quot; he says. &amp;quot;Any kind of inflammation can break down elastin and cause aging.&amp;quot; Read on: Products to try &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  Lip Service: Products to Try  1. Lanc\u00F4me L&amp;#039;Absolu Rouge in Berry Noir contains lip-balm levels of hydration as well as an SPF of 12 to ward off sun damage. 2. VMV Hypoallergenics Essence Simple-Gentle Skin-Saving Toothpaste has a fragrance- and chemical-free formula that won&amp;#039;t irritate sensitive lips. 3. Est\u00E9e Lauder Perfectionist Correcting Concentrate for Lip Lines and Sally Hansen Line Fix Lip Repair use the water-binding molecule hyaluronic acid (it can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in H20) to temporarily plump lines on and around lips. Read on: Hope Chest &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  Hope Chest  In spite of the country&amp;#039;s recent scarf obsession (we even draped them on at the height of summer), designers this fall have fetishized the collarbone. Since the thin tissue of the neck is similar to that around the eye, many skin obsessives have tried to tighten the area by slathering on a crow&amp;#039;s-feet cream from the chin down. &amp;quot;That&amp;#039;s too expensive,&amp;quot; Beer says. &amp;quot;Plus, you can use more potent ingredients on the neck, because you don&amp;#039;t have to worry about irritating the eye.&amp;quot; Both Beer and Alexiades recommend simply applying the same daily antiager you use on your face. &amp;quot;You don&amp;#039;t need to buy a special neck cream,&amp;quot; Beer says. And light-reflecting primers and tinted moisturizers designed to erase the appearance of pores and fine lines can instantly diffuse creases and smooth texture, says Manhattan dermatologist Howard Sobel, MD. For long-term benefits, new fractional CO2 zaps a small percentage of skin, causing the surrounding tissue to pull tight, as well as jump-starting collagen production. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s very impressive for treating a loose neck,&amp;quot; says Arielle Kauvar, MD, clinical associate professor of dermatology at NYU Langone Medical Center. &amp;quot;The skin shrinks and tightens before your eyes. It&amp;#039;s kind of amazing.&amp;quot; This area doesn&amp;#039;t heal as fast as the face, so expect a week of rawness, followed by a few more of redness. The most popular tightening machines, Titan and Thermage, may have some competition this fall, as a new radiofrequency machine could get FDA approval. Alexiades has just completed trials for a new device from Primaeva that injects heat into the skin with needle electrodes (unlike Thermage or Titan, which don&amp;#039;t prick the skin). &amp;quot;It lets us get energy precisely where it needs to go. It&amp;#039;s a huge breakthrough,&amp;quot; she says. Because the doctor can control the temperature, the procedure could actually be less painful than its radio-frequency competition, needles and all.

DDF Wrinkle Resist Plus Pore Minimizer contains micro-diffusing pigments that, like Photoshop in a bottle, feather away fine lines. Read on: Palm Pilots &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  Palm Pilots  Black, navy, and deep purple lacquers don&amp;#039;t do aging hands any favors. &amp;quot;Dark polish, especially when it chips, is the worst,&amp;quot; says Jin Soon Choi, founder of Jin Soon Natural Hand &amp;amp;amp; Foot Spa in New York City. Choi recommends choosing pale polishes, such as Chanel&amp;#039;s Ballerina and Essie&amp;#039;s Mademoiselle, which &amp;quot;keep nails looking groomed and clean all thetime&amp;quot; and liberal applications (three times a day) of Sally Hansen cuticle oil. &amp;quot;Think about raw wood versus well-oiled wood,&amp;quot; Choi says. &amp;quot;Dry, flaky cuticles and nail beds can make hands look 10 years older.&amp;quot; Before you apply polish, press down on your nails. &amp;quot;If the fingernail doesn&amp;#039;t turn back to its original pinkish color in a couple of seconds, this may be a sign that you&amp;#039;re dehydrated,&amp;quot; says nutritionist Lisa Drayer, author of The Beauty Diet (McGraw-Hill), out this month. &amp;quot;Since loss of water can lead to brittle nails, it&amp;#039;s important to drink lots of fluids.&amp;quot; Drayer recommends downing plenty of H2O and green tea as well as consuming foods rich in essential fatty acids. Dermatologists now regularly zap the back of the hands with the same antiaging lasers used on the face: intense pulsed light (IPL) to erase brown spots and fractionated CO2 to even out texture. &amp;quot;A single session of CO2 will drastically reduce crepeyness and pigmentation,&amp;quot; says Kauvar. To minimize lumps and bumps, she injects Radiesse, a thick gel filler, into the valleys around the tendons. Chicago facial plastic surgeon Steven Dayan, MD, mixes Radiesse with lidocaine, a cocktail that is less painful than the filler alone. &amp;quot;Plus, the mix is easier to spread across the area, giving a smoother result.&amp;quot; Sobel adds epinephrine to his Radiesse-lidocaine blend. &amp;quot;This constricts blood vessels to help prevent bruising.&amp;quot; Read on: Products to try &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  Palm Pilots: Products to Try  1.

Beer recommends applying an inexpensive glycolic or lactic acid lotion and Retin-A. &amp;quot;One of the original Retin-A studies was done on the body, not the face. The skin looked significantly younger and better after nine months,&amp;quot; he says. The skinthickening effect of retinol can also diminish the appearance of cellulite. &amp;quot;Estrogen levels drop in the mid-thirties, resulting in damage to the collagen network that girdles the fat layer beneath the skin,&amp;quot; says cosmetic surgeon Lisa A. Zdinak, MD, one of the first New York City doctors to work with Thermage&amp;#039;s ThermaTip CL, a cellulite-blasting version of the popular radio-frequency device. &amp;quot;It increases circulation and repairs the web of collagen that holds back the fat.&amp;quot; For a recent study, Alexiades examined skin biopsies from cellulite-prone areas treated with Accent, another radio-frequency option. &amp;quot;The laser raises the collagen levels between fat and skin,&amp;quot; she says. &amp;quot;So the fat gets pushed back down where it belongs.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;How many spider veins you get and when they first appear are the result of genetics,&amp;quot; says Tina Alster, MD, founder of the Washington Institute of Dermatologic Laser Surgery in Washington, DC. Alster blasts broken capillaries with FDAapproved Veinwave, which delivers lowlevel heat (similar to a microwave&amp;#039;s electric current) through a needle. While other vein-zappers such as the YAG laser are also effective, they can require several, often painful treatments to see results. One Veinwave session does the trick &amp;quot;with less bruising,&amp;quot; Alster says. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s totally different than what I&amp;#039;ve used before.&amp;quot; Read on: Products to try &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  Leg Work: Products to Try  1.
