RealAge's Beauty Doctor Writes Groundbreaking Book on Mind-Beauty Connection

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Amy Wechsler, one of only two physicians in the nation board certified in both dermatology and psychiatry, today reveals her innovative new book and skin center on RealAge.com during the Today show. A beauty expert for the healthy lifestyle Web site, Wechsler will discuss her new book, The Mind-Beauty Connection: 9 Days to Reverse Stress Aging and Reveal More Youthful, Beautiful Skin (Free Press, 2008) and the secrets to being happier inside and gorgeous outside.

"I've always been fascinated by the mind-beauty connection," Dr. Wechsler says.

Like best-selling authors Dr. Michael Roizen and Dr. Mehmet Oz, Wechsler is an adviser to RealAge.com, the nation's leading health and wellness Web site. The science behind the hugely successful RealAge Test led to the revolutionary SkinAge Test (available in the book and on the site). Once readers take the test, Dr. Wechsler gives them a regimen to reverse the aging effects of tension and time by as much as 6 years.

From the Today show, Dr. Wechsler will guide viewers to RealAge.com's new Simply Beautiful Skin Center (http://www.RealAge.com/Simply-Beautiful-Skin/.) The site's stress-busting, beauty-boosting features include:

    -- Dr. Wechsler's expert treatments for sun damage; fine lines; adult
       acne; brown spots; dry skin; and other conditions
    -- A personal skin care assessment that produces recommendations tailored
       to your needs
    -- Our beauty doc's guide to wrinkle fillers, relaxers, and more
