  • Bringing Sexy Back with Meryl Kern - Inside and Out
    Aug 26 2019

    Breast cancer survivor Meryl Kern has dedicated the years since her diagnosis to helping women feel like their pre-cancerous selves again. Her "Lyftique" treatment promotes elasticity and collagen production on face, body and "blush" area to help combat signs of aging as well as the vaginal and labial issues that women face after cancer treatment, childbirth and menopause. Additionally, the Meryl Kern Survivorship Program at Tower Cancer Research Foundation provides mental health support, information through panel presentations and wigs for women undergoing treatment who are financially unable to purchase one. This episode is NSFW but definitely a fun one that you'll want to share!
