This Firming Serum Helps Me Go Longer Between Botox Appointments

This Firming Serum Helps Me Go Longer Between Botox Appointments

Rodan + Fields is launching the Instant Targeted Firming Gel on June 1.
This targeted gel serum is meant to smooth fine lines in minutes.
The gel is powered by the brand's proprietary RF Firming Complex, a potent combination of four ingredients.
Aging is such an interesting process. On one hand, I know that it's a privilege and want to embrace my natural appearance, but I also find myself obsessing over newly formed wrinkles and slightly sagging skin. At 32, I think I've found a happy medium — I rely on a few units of Botox and a couple of vials of dermal filler per year to keep deep-set wrinkles at bay, along with treatments like laser resurfacing and microneedling to maintain skin texture and tone.

Beyond that, it all comes down to day-to-day maintenance, and I'm all for products that help me prolong the time between dermatologist visits. So, when Rodan + Fields offered to let me try the new Instant Targeted Firming Gel ($105) before it hits shelves on June 1, I was intrigued.

This formula is all about instant gratification — within just five minutes of applying to crow's feet, frown lines, and smile lines, you can visibly see the smoothing and tightening results. If you're wondering how that's possible, look to the proprietary RF Firming Complex: a potent combination of red microalgae, polysaccharides, sea water, and hydrolyzed silk.
