Avoid the Sun

Brighten Up!

Did You Know?

Age spots aren’t caused by age.

They are caused by the sun.

“Sunshine is an attack on the skin, and one way the skin defends itself is to make pigment,” explains Ranella Hirsch, M.D., a cosmetic dermatologist in Cambridge, MA, and president-elect of the American Society of Cosmetic Dermatology & Aesthetic Surgery. If a patient is skeptical about her spots being solar related, Dr. Hirsch asks her to move her bra over a quarter of an inch to expose the skin that the sun never hits. “And then she sees what I mean,” she says. “If these changes really came from aging, you’d have them all over.”

How Can Med Spas Help?

1.     Light-based treatments: Lasers and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL or Photo Facials). Most of the time, several treatment sessions are necessary.

2.     Chemical Peels

3.     Skin Care Products to use at home

Bonus

Many of the treatments will also help with wrinkles!
I love a combination of Photo Facials and Chemical Peels.
And, of course, my Retin A.

Anti-Aging Advice:How Much Product is Too Much?

Good Habit – Using Your Skin Care Products

Do You Use Too Much?

It’s easy to fall into the mentality of if some works,
more will be even better and more effective.

Why is This Bad?

Too much moisturizer will
actually create a thick film
that stays on your skin and clogs pores.
Too much acne treatment can
dry out your skin,
causing it to actually produce more oil.

The Solution

Use only a little.
Usually the size of a pea is enough.
Really.

This stuff is expensive, as you well know.
Why waste it?
Especially if less is more.

Skin Care Question – Beauty Expert’s Opinion

Thursday, January 6th, 2011

Lois Joy Johnson

Separate Eye Cream and Neck Cream?


Lois Joy Johnson is the former Beauty and Fashion Director
of More magazine.


She is often asked:

Do I really need separate neck and eye creams
or can I just use my face treatment in these areas too?


Her response:

Eye

The eye area is thinner and drier than the rest of your face
and shows signs of age, fatigue, and stress easily.

It deserves a separate product that targets concerns like dark circles,
puffiness, flakiness, saggy lids, and crepey skin.

Neck

The neck has fewer oil glands than the face and is often neglected.

Consider it as an extension of your face day and night
when it comes to applying treatment.

Hairline to Bra Line

I think buying separate products forces you to pay attention
to these areas.

I used to honestly forget about my neck until my dermatologist
suggested I get a neck cream and start using it!

If you can be counted on to treat hairline to bra-line
as a unit, good for you!

Personally, I need the formal responsibility (and guilt) of buying a separate item.


Does your neck look 10 years older than your face???

At Ageless Remedies we are encouraging you to take care of your neck.

Med Spas Can Peel Away Summer Sun Damage

Wednesday, September 15th, 2010

Time for a Peel?

I love peels.

Chemical peels

  • help even out skin tone

  • get rid of dark patches from the sun

  • rejuvenate your skin

What’s not to love?

Laura LoCricchio in the Detroit Spa Examiner says:

“Make sure that you are going to a licensed professional
that has experience in a variety of chemical peels.
Not all chemical peels are the same.
Chemical peels range from light to deep
and there are peels for specific skin issues
from acne to sun-damage.

To see real improvement in the skin
medical grade peels are the best.
Most peels have minimum downtime
and are spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart.
A series is always recommended for best results.
If your looking for a great way to improve tone,
texture, minimize sun-damage and fine lines and wrinkles
chemical peels might be the right choice for you.”

Do you want healthy, radiant, even-toned skin?

Do you have any questions about professional chemical peels?

Or other issues about skin care that you’d like me to write about?
