SUMMER TIME
AND THE LIVING IS EASY
EXCEPT FOR SHAVING or WAXING

Here’s Kelly Ripa on the beach.
Here’s what she said to Regis, on the show:
Kelly: (Mentions that she often talks
to her “mom” friends about laser hair removal.)
Regis: Let me ask you something about laser hair removal.
Have you had this done?
Kelly: YES!
Regis: Laughs… Did it hurt?
Kelly: Yeah, yeah…A little.
Regis: Are you gonna do it again?
Kelly: I don’t have to do it again!
Regis: The hair is gone forever? No more?
Kelly: It’s gone for good sweetie pie.
Now, I didn’t watch this show…
This invaluable news is thanks to our friend Laser Gal at Assara
Med Spa in NYC.
It sure makes the point about why laser hair removal is sooooo worth it.
As Kelly said: “It’s gone for good sweetie pie.”
Thanks, Kelly!

WHEN TO USE THOSE LOTIONS AND POTIONS

Here’s something our aestheticians taught me
back when we started Ageless Remedies SouthPark.
This is a routine that works.
Vitamin C and sunblock in the morning,
Retin A at night.
And today I can tell you about two more professionals who agree.
Dr. Jenny Kim, assoc. prof of derm at UCLA, says: “research has shown physiological changes that happen at night
may enhance the effectiveness of some creams…”
John Kulesza, CEO Young Pharmaceuticals, says that physiological changes take place in the evening to the skin that may enhance product penetration. ” Many treatment actives, e.g. Vitamin C, Green Tea, Retinoids, are light sensitive. Applying them in darkness reduces the possibility they will photodegrade on the skin surface before they are fully absorbed into the skin, which can take a few hours.”
Questions? Comments?
Let me know.

DO YOU WANT HEALTHY, RADIANT,
YOUNG-LOOKING SKIN?
That’s what I write about. That’s what I enjoy.
If that’s what YOU WANT…
Cosmeceuticals represent the marriage of cosmetics
and pharmaceuticals…
They typically are anti-aging creams
and moisturizing lotions. (Wikipedia)
Although this is not an FDA category,
these skin care products contain
significant amounts of effective ingredients
and some are so potent they can be obtained
only through a physician.
Obagi, iS Clinical, SkinMedica,
Image, and TriLuma, for example,
are not all household names.
But these companies are always working
to produce products that are results-oriented.
They use the latest chemical technology
to ensure that
*the active ingredients are effective
*they can be absorbed by the skin
*they are safe
What’s not to love?
These brands do not cost any more
than what you’d pay
at a high-end department store.
But they GET RESULTS.
Have YOU used them?
Don’t you agree?
Please comment below
and tell me!
Sincerely,
Ageless Elaine

I’m not kidding. Someone out there MUST love them.
I, however, dislike large pores intensely.
Here’s what I do:
- I use the Clarisonic Pro Cleaning System.
When those pores are super clean, they
don’t look like ugly black dots on your
nose. Works for me :)
- Chemical Peels and Microdermabrasion
treatments, fairly regularly (every 4-6
weeks). Okay, it’s my med spa — but still.
I really hate those large pores. Reminds
me of my father’s nose. Not pretty.
- More extreme: (Again, it’s my med spa.)
Fractional Laser Skin Rejuvenation.
Increased collagen makes your skin
thicker and consequently your pores
appear smaller. There are also a gazillion
other benefits to having your skin
rejuvenated.
Do YOU live with this annoying cosmetic flaw, like me?
There’s no magic cure but a good skin care regimen makes those pores a lot less noticeable. Call to schedule a free consultation and see how we can help you: 704.364.3332

For example, right now Fractional Laser Skin
Rejuvenation is $100 OFF.
