Well, hello, hello, guys, you're listening to Beauty Bites with Dr. K, Secrets of a Plastic

Surgeon, and it's time for a

five-minute Friday. I love these five-minute Fridays. It's a flash of information, something you

didn't know about a topic that you should know more about. And today we're going to talk all about
