These injections give your face a fuller look. They're generally safe. The major thing to watch out for: sometimes they give your lips an unnaturally plump look.

These can be temporary or permanent. They're probably the safest procedure in this slideshow.

This safe procedure gives you no cause for concern. As always, make sure you pick an experienced technician to do your treatment.

Chemical Peel

Chemical Peels rejuvenate your skin. Warning: they're quite safe, but only when performed by an expert. Make sure you do research on anyone you consider having do this for you.

This prescription drug helps you grow longer, thicker, and fuller eyelashes. It's safe as long as you follow the directions.

The nonsurgical facelift combines several procedures (like neurotoxins, fillers, and chemical peels) to give you a younger looking face. It's generally safe, but you do run some risks from doing so many procedures at once.

This treatment makes your skin look great over 5 to 6 sessions. The procedure is generally safe, as side effects are rare.
