The 3 Most Important Skincare Tips

1. Hydrate

2. Exfoliate

3. Protect

Here’s what I said:

“Find a two-in-one moisturizer
and sunscreen to help you
fight the good fight.Elaine Greenberg, owner of Ageless Remedies,
recommends looking for a moisturizer
with Vitamin C in it.

Vitamin C can help reduce skin damage
caused by free radicals.

Also, Vitamin C is essential
for the synthesis of collagen,
a key structural protein of the skin.”

Does Your Face Look Like This?

*Do you have light skin, blue eyes, blond hair?
*Do you blush easily?
*Does  your skin react to sudden temperature changes?
To sun exposure?
*Do you experience redness if you drink alcohol?
*Do you experience redness is you eat a meal too quickly,
or if it’s too spicy, or too hot?
*Do you have permanent or almost permanent redness on your face?
*Does your face show small dilated blood vessels?
*Have you noticed pimple-like lesions on your  redness areas?

If you answered “yes” to at least 3 of these questions,
you may be suffering from rosacea.

You don’t have to live with it.

Photofacials help.  So does the Obagi Rosaclear kit.

Purchase a series of photofacials, and get the Rosaclear kit FREE

Our medspa bridges the gap between medicine and beauty,
between rosacea and a clear complexion.

Even I was shocked at this price.  (Medical grade skin care is not inexpensive.  But you do get real results.)
And thank you Heather, one of our awesome aestheticians, for showing me this.
From the CocoPerez newsletter:

• ***The ingredients in this “miracle” skin cream like petrolatum, glycerine, and eucalyptus leaf oil, are available to the public very inexpensively at local beauty supply stores or online.  Some are more difficult to find but still available for purchase to the public.
• ***Experienced cosmetic chemist Will Buchanan says: “This is a variation on a basic water-in-oil formula.”
• ***THIS PRODUCT WAS DEVELOPED IN THE 70’s. 

Creme de la Mer is made by Estee Lauder.  Paula Begoun, renowned product reviewer, says: “It’s just a really dated formula…Product formulations have become much more sophisticated since then.  Estee Lauder itself has gone on to develop skincare that is far better that Creme de la Mer, and doesn’t cost as much…”

All the hype is good for publicity but there are NO clinical trials.  Estee Lauder has never conducted a trial for Creme de la Mer.

Is this interesting, or what??? Let me know what you think.

It’s your $745.

Think about this:  The Apothecary in our spa carries medical grade skin care products that are backed by scientific studies.  Hence, our name: Ageless Remedies SouthPark MED Spa and Laser Center, blending science and aesthetics. 

Take the extra several hundred dollars and get some professional skin care,  like microdermabrasions and chemical peels, which also are PROVEN to improve your skin.

5 MYTHS ABOUT SKIN CARE — TRUE OR FALSE?

MYTH:  There is a true anti-aging cream that will keep you looking younger for years. 
TRUE.  Retin A is this product.  How does it accomplish this ”miracle?”  By forcing skin cells to turn over faster.  Like when you were younger!  You know, by now, you also have to use a good sunscreen.

MYTH:  There are over a dozen FDA approved fillers on the market.  You should be able to choose which one you want.  They’re all government approved. And, it’s your skin.
FALSE:  Sorry.  Just because it’s new or relatively inexpensive or a friend loves it does not make a particular filler the best choice for you.  You have to trust the doctor.  (Hopefully it’s a doctor, and one with lots of experience.)  These days, best practice is often to combine  and even layer fillers to get the best results at the best price.  You don’t have that kind of knowledge.  Some are thicker and stay put, some are more liquid and are better for larger areas, and some cost more because they last longer.

MYTH:  There is a proven way to permanently reduce cellulite.
FALSE:  I wish.  All methods are, at best, temporary.  Cellulite is a byproduct of hormones which govern the distribution of fat storage.  Most women have some cellulite, no matter how thin they may be.

MYTH:  Botox and Fillers equal a surgical face lift.
TRUE and FALSE.  Botox smoothes the forehead and lifts and shapes the brows when performed by a skilled physician.  Fillers plump the lips and cheeks and soften nasolabial folds.  I’m still hanging in there at 63 and I think it’s a really natural look.  But beyond a certain age, only surgery will really get you results.  I love the non-surgical approach because a)  There is no down-time and b) I hate even the thought of surgery.

MYTH:  Botox is Botox.  You can get it for $100 at a hair salon or at a home “Botox Party.”
FALSE:  Reality:  You get what you pay for.  You should ask yourself, “Why is it so inexpensive?” 
           It may be diluted.   
           It may not even be real Botox.
           The practioner is not properly trained and experienced
           The “practitioner” is just practicing.  OMG.  We actually had an esthetician come to us after just such a disaster.  She should have known better.

You’re welcome.

Sincerely,
Ageless Elaine

More than a million people underwent
laser hair removal last year.

According to Healthifle.net, people are spending the money now
to save money on disposable razors and waxing services in the future.

For men and women of all ages, laser hair removal is where it’s at.

Men who want a hairless back, women who do not want hair on their upper lip,
arms or bikini line and even teenagers who don’t want to deal with a razor
are turning to laser hair removal to remove hair permanently.

Think of the razors, shaving cream and waxing costs- 
It’ss no surprise that hundreds of men and women and even teenagers
are getting the treatment done to be rid of body hair forever.

Now, at my advanced age, I WISH laser hair removal had been around when i was young.
In my humble opinion, it’s THE perfect gift.
Unconventional, maybe, but perfect!
