- BY KATHLEEN HOU

It's Quiet.It's Demure.It's the New Plastic Surgery.

“It’s demure,” observes celebrity makeup artist Daniel Martin when I ask for his thoughts on this new paradigm. It’s mindful.

Now he jokes about the new “no-filler-filler cheek,” saying, “the technology and the work now are definitely different. It’s undetectable.”
