Every month, we strive to bring you a balanced mix of breaking news (like the cosmetic procedures Martha Stewart does—and doesn’t—get<\/a>) and advice you can always use, like the differences between MyEllevate and a neck lift<\/a>. Invariably though, there’s an intriguing headline or viral post that doesn’t make its own stand-alone story yet is still worthy of a share.<\/p>

Which brings us here, to the latest installment of This Month in Aesthetics<\/a>, an ICYMI recap of industry-molding moments that we’d be remiss not to acknowledge—from an Oscar-nominated actress’s last words for her plastic surgeon and the new, worrisome trend among young men on TikTok.<\/p>

Miria, a “next-generation” laser, launches with FDA clearance<\/h2>

A new laser system is taking aim at solving one of the biggest problems with energy devices: safety and efficacy across all skin tones. Called Miria<\/a>, the novel technology delivers light into precise skin layers (providers can select superficial, medium, and deep treatments) in a cone shape, which allows the energy to be pinpointed to the desired area and bypass top layers of skin—preventing overheating that often leads to burns and postinflammatory hyperpigmentation. The device also uses a “zoom lens” of 10x magnification, which allows providers to see exact concerns that can be missed with the naked eye, and an AI system that learns about each patient’s skin and adjusts treatments as it goes.<\/p>

Miria treats a breadth of concerns ranging from sun damage and texture to acne scarring, deep wrinkles, and volume loss. “Miria’s technology is different in that it’s very versatile based on how it’s been built,” says Dr. Marina Peredo<\/a>, a board-certified dermatologist in New York City and an early adopter of the technology. “Miria can treat multiple issues in one session and with one device. Because it has the ability to go to greater depths, it can treat higher volumes of tissue in a single treatment. Anyone suffering from sun damage, rosacea, and other mild conditions up to more serious concerns including acne scarring, volume loss, and deep wrinkles is a candidate for Miria.”<\/p>
