Well, hello, hello guys. You're listening to Beauty Bites with Dr. Kay, secrets of aastic Surgeon and it's time for a five minute Friday.

It's the holidays upon us and it's the jolliest time of the year, but it's also super stressful.

And I want to talk to you guys about holidays and stress.

Cortisol face.

What is cortisol face?

How does your cortisol rise so high during the

holidays? What does that do to your face and beauty? And how can we present getting these problems

with cortisol face and stress? And for me, I love the holidays, but I really like Thanksgiving

because it's the holiday where you get to chill, you're sitting,

relaxing, eating good food with family.

Like there's none of us running around and doing a million different things.

Christmas to me and Hanukkah and the seasonal time of year is very challenging.

I have so many obligations because patients want to come in and get beautiful.

And then I have a million

things on my checklist to do buying presents for four kids and a husband and all the relatives.

I'm sure you guys feel the same way, right?

Those women who send out their Christmas cards early in this season, I just want to throw

ice daggers at them because it makes me feel so inadequate.

I can't get mine done till like it always turns into a happy New Year card.

But we have such jam-pack schedules, work deadlines, social obligations,

end of the year milestones and parties and putting up the tree and the decorating that we have to do.

There's so much stress internally that we create on ourselves.
