Changing the Way We Glow: The Regenerative Aesthetic Trend in Dubai
We'll be the first to say it: looking glowy, sculpted and naturally flawless is officially in. And while filters and highlighters have their place, the real beauty MVP in Dubai right now? Regenerative aesthetics.
Forget the frozen faces and overfilled cheeks of seasons past – this new wave of skin and wellness treatments is all about working with your body, not against it. Think: science-backed, celeb-loved, results-driven rituals that leave you looking like you've just come back from a silent wellness retreat (without having to skip your weekend brunches).
Founded by renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Jaffer Khan, the clinic has built its reputation on innovative, personalised care. But it's the regenerative treatments that are taking things to the next level. So, what exactly is regenerative aesthetics? In short, it's the science of healing and rejuvenating the skin at a cellular level. Using your body's natural building
blocks – like DNA extracts, growth factors, and platelets – these advanced treatments don't just soften wrinkles or improve hydration. They actually stimulate long-term regeneration, helping skin (and even hair) to look healthier, firmer, and more youthful over time.
Among the most in-demand options to get your glow on at Aesthetics International are:
– Exosome Therapy: Delivers powerful growth factors to revive skin texture, smooth lines, and promote hair growth.
– Salmon DNA Therapy: Yes, really. This supercharged skin treatment hydrates, firms, and boosts collagen using purified natural DNA.

Over 4,000 harmful substances: Why even 'just one more cigarette' could be too many
Smokers are often heard saying: "Just one cigarette is not going to do any harm." Or defending smoking habits on the basis that its only "once in a while". However, every cigarette contains an immense amount of harm to the smoker, and their loved ones, who may inhale second-hand smoke. One cigarette contains over 4,000 harmful substances, which includes 94 toxic chemicals, Dubai Health Authority warned. These chemicals are even more dangerous when burned. These chemicals are a major cause of: High blood pressure High cholesterol Cancers (mouth, throat, gums, colon) Asthma and bronchitis Heart attacks, strokes Stomach ulcers Osteoporosis While quitting can be hard, support systems such as family and medical help can assist you in the process. Along with speaking to your loved ones and setting up an appointment, it is essential to stay away from environments that give you the urge to smoke. Setting a quit date and beginning a regular exercise routine can also help, according to DHA. Quitting smoking can greatly improve your quality of life and has many benefits:

UAE: Wondering where to invest? Look at Ras Al Khaimah's new developments
Recently, the serene shores of Ras Al Khaimah (RAK) lit up with a dazzling event featuring a synchronised drone show and fireworks. High-profile guests, nibbling on gourmet bites from Cipriani, were treated to an immersive showcase of 'designer living'. The occasion: the launch of Mira Coral Bay, billed as the world's first multi-branded waterfront community. In a real estate market where branded residences reign supreme, Mira Developments' latest project — a mix of villas, townhouses, hotels, beach clubs, and upscale dining — sets itself apart. For one, it brings prestigious luxury brands, including Dolce&Gabbana Casa, Bentley Home, Etro Home, Jacob & Co., John Richmond, and Trussardi, to a single location: Al Mairid, RAK. Secondly, it redefines high-end living with a mind-boggling offer: the Kadar Villas, each featuring two special-edition luxury cars, interiors by a celebrity designer, and top-tier appliances. Meanwhile, across Al Marjan Island, Richmind Developers unveils 'Oystra', a striking project that marks the debut of Zaha Hadid Architects in the area. With one to four BHKs (bedroom, hall, and kitchens), duplexes, penthouses, waterfront villas, a five-star hotel, branded beach club, and 360° rooftop pools, the homes — priced from Dh3 million — offer a bold new benchmark for waterfront luxury. These are just a few examples of A-list developers making a beeline for the hottest new real estate destination of the UAE: RAK. While Dubai routinely grabs eyeballs with mega-deals and record-breaking towers (the $1 billion, or Dh3.67 billion, Trump Tower being the latest), its quieter cousin is steadily catching up. Long considered a serene staycation spot, the RAK growth story is being noticed thanks to aggressive tourism campaigns, major infrastructure upgrades, investor-friendly policies, and its reputation as a manufacturing powerhouse. From an expanding international airport to its positioning as an adventure tourism hotspot and economic incentives like 100 per cent foreign ownership, 0–9 per cent corporate tax, full capital repatriation, and long-term residency, RAK's developments are attracting every major real estate player. DAMAC Properties, for instance, launched its inaugural project, Shoreline by DAMAC on Al Marjan Island. It has 17-stories with one-two-and-three BHK apartments and duplexes offering resort experience with beach access, gardens, wellness areas, a sunset bar and floating cabana. Priced from Dh1.83 million, the homes, which start at 730sqft, are set for completion by July 2028. 'Our expansion into Ras Al Khaimah aligns with the emirate's rapid rise as a destination for expatriates and home investors,' says Mohammed Tahaineh, chief project officer at DAMAC. BNW Developments is another key entrant in the sector. It recently announced the Taj Wellington Mews project in collaboration with Indian hospitality giant IHCL. 'We identified a striking gap when we saw that RAK had embraced nearly every global hospitality name but missed one of the most iconic names in Indian luxury, Taj,' says Ankur Aggarwal, chairman and founder of BNW Developments. Their growing portfolio also includes 'Aqua Arc' (offering turnkey furnished apartments), 'Aquino' (tailored for high-end users), and 'Pelagia' (hospitality-style residence with concierge services, rooftop indulgences, and wellness lifestyles). The sea-view balconies, smart systems, private spas, and gourmet cafés are all designed to attract the quiet luxury buyer. 'Luxury isn't about the label,' says Aggarwal. 'It lies in the lifestyle it enables.' Vimal Dharamshi Vaya, CEO of Apex Capital Real Estate, says RAK's real estate buzz has intensified in the past three years. 'It's drawing interest from top private players and even government-linked developers,' he says, adding that investors from Russia, Japan, and Europe are especially charmed by its serenity and sophistication. 'Our move into Ras Al Khaimah wasn't reactive; it was predictive,' says Aggarwal. 'We foresaw it transitioning from a serene emirate to a global hospitality and investment magnet.' An emirate comparison A quick comparison between Dubai and RAK's real estate scene brings to the fore some interesting facts. Kirill Dolgin, founder and CEO of BrokerDeck, says: 'Dubai is a larger, more mature, and globally established market with higher price points and potentially higher liquidity, but RAK has rapid growth trajectory, significantly more affordable property prices, higher rental yields, and capital appreciation potential. While Dubai offers a fast-paced, ultra-urban lifestyle, RAK provides a more relaxed, nature-centric environment despite its proximity to Dubai.' And the numbers prove it. In RAK, the transaction value increased nearly 25,000 per cent and mortgage values surged almost 21,849 per cent between June 2017 and June 2024. Branded residences' growth is projected to be 40 per cent of new units by 2029 and the average property prices increased by 30 per cent in 2022, with off-plan rates growing 15-20 per cent in 2024. 'All these indicate that Ras Al Khaimah's real estate market has dramatically transformed from an emerging player to a prime investment destination,' says Dolgin. Wynn-ing Resort The real game-changer for Ras Al Khaimah is, undoubtedly, Wynn Resorts at Al Marjan, slated to open by 2027. Mustafa Haider Kamal, senior relationship manager at Richmind — currently working on the Oystra project — believes Wynn's gaming licence was the turning point. 'It eliminated all the 'ifs and buts' about the casino,' he says, noting how it shifted not just market dynamics but also investor mindsets. 'Perhaps even Dubai or Abu Dhabi could have hosted a Wynn, but those cities already have their attractions. RAK has landed a big opportunity; it's going to transform the economy, creating jobs and drawing major brands and hotels.' Even ahead of completion, the project's impact is being likened to the rise of Las Vegas and Macau as global gaming hubs. So, will RAK become the Vegas of the Middle East? Experts suggest a more nuanced take. Rather than replicating Vegas, the vision here is to create an integrated resort tailored to RAK's distinct environmental and cultural identity. The multi-billion-dollar development will feature 1,540 keys, a meeting, incentive, convention, and exhibition area, gaming zones, entertainment and luxury retail. Clearly, it is aimed at attracting both residents and tourists. Nevertheless, the economic parallels to Macau are compelling. 'Macau witnessed rapid economic expansion and a significant upswing in property demand and residential property values following the introduction of international casino operators,' says Dolgin. 'Similarly, Wynn's entry into RAK is expected to drive swift economic growth and heightened property demand.' The impact is already visible. Since the announcement in 2022, RAK has seen primary residential sale prices jump dramatically; apartment prices surged by around 128 per cent, while villas rose by 73 per cent compared to 2021. Tourism, too, is on an upward curve. The casino is expected to propel RAK into a new league, with projections estimating over 3.8 million visitors by 2027 and more than 5.5 million by 2039. Some of these numbers may be drawn from Dubai, which welcomed 7.5 million visitors in the first four months of 2025 alone. 'Those who enjoy gaming experiences will come here rather than fly halfway across the world to Vegas or Macau,' says Vaya. So, how should you invest? The flurry of developments is also sending a strong message to savvy investors: now is the time to consider owning property in this emerging luxury destination. With more accessible entry points and solid growth forecasts, experts agree it's an opportune moment to secure that dream home. RAK offers many advantages — from diversifying your investment portfolio beyond established markets like Dubai and Abu Dhabi to tapping into high rental yields (up to 12 per cent for short-term rentals) and potential capital appreciation. As Dolgin observes: 'RAK's focus on enhancing its lifestyle offerings and tourism infrastructure is creating a positive feedback loop, directly boosting demand, property values and overall investor confidence.' Pricing is the key. Realtors estimate beachfront properties in RAK to currently average Dh3,000–Dh3,500 per sqft — a stark contrast to comparable high-value enclaves in Dubai where prices range from Dh5,000 to Dh8,000 per sqft. A useful tip: Look at holiday homes and short-term rentals. 'Holiday homes can deliver a return on investment of 18–25 per cent per annum,' says Haider. 'People will stay in hotels, but there are many who prefer holiday homes.' Dolgin suggests looking beyond the allure of Al Marjan Island. 'Consider properties in established areas like Al Hamra, RAK Central and other parts of Ras Al Khaimah for their infrastructure and variety,' he suggests. Vaya, on the other hand, highlights RAK's superior value for space and returns. 'While an average RAK one BHK is 800-900sqft for a lesser price point and higher rental return, the same would be about 700sqft and lesser return in Dubai. Go for one or two BHK if you are looking at pure investment. For self-use, opt for two or three BHKs,' he advises. The novelty and future upside also play in RAK's favour. 'Once the casino is operational, everything else will follow,' predicts Haider. 'Imagine the traction by 2030. Anyone investing in 2025–26 will be sitting on a goldmine. Al Marjan is for a niche market of seasoned investors or first-timers with a bold appetite.' Some other important rules to remember: Invest in branded residences, do your due diligence, and choose developers wisely. Vaya concludes: 'Buy real estate and wait — don't wait to buy real estate.'
