In this third episode of our mini-series "Decades of Face," Dr. Bass advises people in their 40's actively fighting signs of aging and determined to take the best care of their skin.

With volume loss and wrinkles becoming increasingly visible in this decade of life, Botox and fillers are almost universally part of the beauty plan. This is also prime time to take advantage of energy based treatments for skin changes such as wrinkling, pigment irregularity, age spots, rosacea, and skin laxity.

For those who have followed a good maintenance and prevention plan, you may be able to avoid surgery in your forties and for some, eyelid surgery may be recommended.

Having a beauty plan can provide a decade delay before surgical intervention. If you weren't already, it's important to take your skin care seriously over the age of 40.

Hear Dr. Bass's wise advice for the most common aging signs people see in their forties and how to correct them.
