THE WHAT? Stila Cosmetics has announced that it has appointed an independent manager. Kevin J Carey, Senior Counsel in Hogan Lovells’ Corporate and Finance division will serve as manager of Stila Styles and Michelle Kluz has been named as Chief Executive Officer of the make-up brand.
THE DETAIL Kluz long career spans numerous senior roles including Interim CEO of Retail at AWH and CEO of Pure Barre. Most recently, she has worked as an independent advisor.
THE WHY? The move follows a court ruling granting a Zohar fund the right to replace Lynn Tilton as manager. Says Carey, “Michelle brings to Stila a track record that includes leading an established US$1 billion global retailer, building and scaling a business from the ground up, and reinvigorating an iconic fitness brand. Michelle has effectively repositioned a company by building a multi-unit franchise model, driving the annual budget process, establishing operational excellence and ultimately delivering a successful majority sale. Michelle has all the savvy and requisite skills to take Stila to a very bright future.”
Injectable aesthetics are popular due to their ability to provide noticeable results with minimal downtime compared to surgical procedures. They are versatile and can be tailored to meet individual aesthetic goals, whether it's enhancing lips, restoring facial volume, or smoothing out wrinkles. However, they should always be administered by qualified professionals to ensure safety and achieve optimal results.
Injectable aesthetics are used to enhance facial features, reduce the signs of aging, and improve overall facial symmetry and appearance.
Key types of injectable aesthetics include:
-
Dermal Fillers: These injectables are used to add volume, fill in wrinkles and folds, and enhance facial contours. They often contain substances like hyaluronic acid, collagen, or calcium hydroxylapatite, which help plump up the skin and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles.
-
Botulinum Toxin (Botox): Botulinum toxin injections temporarily relax facial muscles that cause wrinkles and lines to form. It is commonly used to treat forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and crow's feet around the eyes.
-
Collagen Stimulators: These injectables stimulate the body's own collagen production, helping to improve skin texture and firmness over time. Examples include poly-L-lactic acid (Sculptra) and calcium hydroxylapatite (Radiesse).
-
Neurotoxin Injections: Besides Botox, other neurotoxins such as Dysport and Xeomin are used similarly to reduce wrinkles and lines.
