5 Anti-Aging Strategies to Keep Your Skin Looking Great

Tuesday, August 31st, 2010


Do you sometimes get a senior citizen discount
but you’re only in your 40’s?

HELP!!!

It’s never too late to start taking care of your skin.


I know it’s boring to keep nagging you,
but the skin IS the body’s largest organ.

THE BASICS

  • Professional skin care products that give you real results

  • Botox (injectable muscle relaxer)

  • Injectable fillers (Restylane, Radiesse, Juvederm)

  • Fractional Laser Skin Rejuvenation

  • Sun protection

THE DETAILS

Real anti-aging skin care means repairing, restoring, and protecting.
Most over-the-counter creams simply do not contain effective ingredients in sufficient concentration to give you the results you want.

Frown lines begone!  Botox injections take, at most, 15 minutes.

Fill in deep folds.  The effect is amazing.  10-20 years gone.  I’m not making this up.
No surgery, no down-time.

Get that collagen working again.
Lasers get down deep and remind those cells what they used to do automatically – when you were in your twenties.
After that, those cells slooowww doooowwwn.

Sun protection?  Do you really like fine lines and wrinkles?

This type of skin care doesn’t take a lot of time.
It’s well worth the investment.

Anti-Aging and Serums

Saturday, August 28th, 2010

The best anti-aging skin care products?


SERUMS


That means the effective ingredients
penetrate deeper.

Vitamins, antioxidants and acids in
serum form are more potent.

In New Beauty, Dr. Mark A. Blair
says:
“Serums are essentially a
vehicle for delivering anti-oxidants,
peptides, vitamins, retinol and
other anti-aging ingredients
into the skin.”

At Ageless Remedies SouthPark Med Spa
we love serums.

Do You Break Out From Your Make-Up?

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

Mineral Makeup

Are You Thinking About Mineral Make-Up?

Does  your make-up make you break out?

Maybe you should switch to mineral make-up.

Benefits of Mineral Make-Up

  • Does not clog pores.

  • Has sun protection

  • Soothes skin


Here are some details:

The true difference from conventional makeup is
what’s NOT in mineral makeup.

No emollient oils and waxes, fragrance,
and preservative ingredients.
Those are the things that
cause irritation.

Your pores can breathe.

And here’s something I hadn’t thought about:

Unlike most makeup, the ingredients are inorganic,
which means that bacteria and microbes
cannot live in the makeup and infect the skin.

I love that!

Also, good mineral make-up is
extremely finely ground.
It feels like you’re not wearing any make-up.

Plus, it reflects light so you have a beautiful glow.

But Get Real

Just because mineral is good for your skin
does not mean it will cure your acne.

And just because it has some sun block
does not mean you are really protected
if you stay out in the sun for a long time.

And you still have to keep your brushes clean,
even though it is inorganic.

However, on the whole, why aren’t you using minerals?

Of course, we have the best mineral make-up at Ageless Remedies,

GloMinerals, Beauty With a Higher Purpose.

Come by and try it out!

ANTI-AGING and APPLES

Most women who use skin care products want to minimize the signs of aging.

Do you?


NEWSFLASH

Anti-aging technology is applying lessons
learned from apples.

(I couldn’t make this up.)

WHY SHOULD YOU CARE?

As we age, the turnover of human epidermal stem cells
begins to slow.

These critical cells function less efficiently.

Lost and dying cells start to outnumber fresh new cells,
and, eventually, they culminate in signs of aging.

Result? Dull, wrinkled skin.

But a certain type of apple has cells with the ability
to keep dividing over many generations.
These cells can stimulate and protect human cells.

This means your skin ages more slowly.

  • Fewer fine lines and wrinkles.

  • Decreased collagen loss.

  • More anti-oxidant protection.

Collagen, a protein, is important because it acts as scaffolding
holding up the skin, and keeping it smooth and wrinkle-free.
Wrinkles are the sign of declining collagen.
More collagen, fewer wrinkles.

I love that!

Your skin turns over more rapidly.  You look great.

Thank you, stem cells – from apples, or whatever.


Of course, at Ageless Remedies SouthPark Med Spa
we offer skin care products that take advantage of this
technology.  Specifically, Image Skin Care,
exclusive to physicians.

Anti-Aging Skin Care Myths

DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY

You want to look your best.
But you hear and see soooo many advertisements.
My job is to tell you what is real
and what is not.

We are a Medical Spa.

Everything we do (and sell) is based on Science.

That’s why you get great results.

Here’s one misconception that drives me crazy…

MYTH: Natural and organic products are always better.

Buyer, beware!

Many natural and organic products
are not as they claim.
Plus, many times, active ingredients
have to be synthesized to be bioavailable and efficacious.
Synthetic compounds can actually be identical
to those found in nature and be more effective.

Natural vs. laboratory-processed
should not lead to an up or down decision
about whether a product is good or bad.
Not all chemicals are bad,
and not all natural or organic ingredients are good.

*** Please don’t shoot the messenger ***

I’m just telling you the truth.
Anti-Aging skin care keeps getting better.
Technology is working for us!

The Smoothest Skin of All

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

One Way a Med Spa

Can Give You Smooooothe Skin


Dermaplaning is a special method of manual exfoliation.

I’ve already written about, for example, microdermabrasion.

Dermaplaning removes the outermost layers

of dead skin cells too.

But there’s one extra benefit: it also removes vellous hairs

(tiny translucent blonde hair) on the face.

It treats dull skin AND a fuzzy face!

Some of our clients notice that the vellous hairs
on their faces cakes their make-up
and actually attracts attention to the fuzz.

What’s a girl to do?

Dermaplaning is performed by a trained
aesthetician using a stetile surgical blade.

In case you’re concerned,
vellous hair cannot grow back thicker

because it is still vellous hair, not regular hair.

Frankly, I have become addicted.

Now when I get a facial, I always add on dermaplaning.

Question of the day:

Do you think we should offer a
“FREE Dermaplaning Add-On to Your Facial”
for a limited time to our Facebook Fans?

Anti-Aging and Hylauronic Acid

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

Hydrate Your Skin

Why do you have to keep your skin hydrated?

Because without proper hydration to maintain
the texture, Trouble:

  • Wrinkles

  • Dried blackheads

  • Blocked pores, which lead to pimples

How can you keep your skin hydrated?


Hyaluronic Acid

unfortunate name, secret anti-aging ingredient

Sadly, it sounds like a stomach ailment.

Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in skin.

It attracts and binds water within the cells of the skin
acting like a sponge.

Result?

Supple, firm, young-looking skin.

That’s what I want.  Don’t you?

Shannon Perez explains:

“As we age, the body begins to produce less and less hyaluronic acid while the cumulative environmental impact of radiation, chemicals, poor nutrition and other hazards continue to take their toll.

Delicate facial tissure tends to show it first as the impact of dehydration, loss of collagen and reduction of elastin form fine lines, wrinkles and loss of supple skin tone.”

There are 2 main ways a med spa can help.

  1. Topical serums: SkinCeuticals, IS Clinical, Image Skincare, Neocutis

  2. Dermal fillers: Restylane, Juvederm, Radiesse, etc.

Call to schedule your FREE consultation.
Find out how we can help you keep your skin healthy,
radiant, young-looking,
and HYDRATED!

to give you


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.”

What Would Oprah Do?

Anti-Oxidants and Anti-Aging

Valerie Monroe talks about anti-oxidants in O, The Oprah Magazine:

Antioxidants…can help prevent wrinkles,
reduce hyperpigmentation (sun spots),
and improve skin tone…

Anti-oxidants combat the dreaded Free Radicals.
Free radicals are those extremely reactive molecules
produced by our environment and our bodies
that damage cells and tissues.


How Free Radicals Damage Our Skin

They cause:

  • wrinkles

  • loss of skin tone

  • hyperpigmentation

  • aging

  • and skin cancer

So you should include an anti-oxidant
in your skin-care regimen.
The most common anti-oxidant is
Vitamin C.
(Be sure it is packaged properly,
in dark glass or a tube,
as Vitamin C breaks down easily
when exposed to light.)

Enough said.
