Avanti Skin

Now that Thanksgiving is officially over, we are all getting into a busy time of the year. It is time once again to put out the Christmas decorations, go over our holiday recipes and shop til we drop. All of this will undoubtedly wear us out, making us tired by the time December 24th rolls around. However, you can treat yourself during this time to a great facial or chemical peel. It may also be a good time for laser hair removal - just think about ditching the razor forever, and doing it in the winter. You will have soft, smooth skin before the weather starts turning warm again.

You should treat yourself - after all you are running around every day trying to prepare for Christmas so that your family can spend quality time with you. Treating yourself will make you feel better and even though you may be tired on the inside, your skin will look beautiful on the outside.

Our skin goes through many changes in life - stress, sun damage, free radicals that enter the skin, smoking and aging. Treating our skin at any age is important, but the younger a person starts the better chance he or she will have to thwart off some of the problems that affect us as we grow older.

Luckily, there are some great rejuvenation treatments that can target these problem areas to give great, fast results as an alternative to having cosmetic surgery. No longer is it necessary to have to undergo costly surgery to fix a problem with your skin. Several options for facial skin are Laser Genesis, Accent XL and Photo Facial. These treatments are designed for the face and the neck but other areas can be treated such as the arms, hands and the abdomen.

Hand rejuvenation can help with problems in the hand such as crepe looking skin as we age. This combined with sun damage can cause the hands to look "old" and can sometimes give away a person's age just by the condition of their hands. Radiesse is a dermal filler that treats the hands, giving the skin a healthier, smoother look while promoting collagen growth. Other treatments can include IPL rejuvenation which is photo laser rejuvenation, getting rid of pigment changes in the skin which cause the skin to be blotchy and uneven in color. It also promotes the growth of collagen and gets rid of scars. Microdermabrasion and hand paraffin treatments are also used to rejuvenate the hands, making them soft and smooth and getting rid of dead skin cells and debris that can make the hands look "worn out and old".

Rejuvenation procedures work and they can help anyone, no matter how old or young a person is. Our skin needs that little "something extra" every now and then - so you should treat yourself to one of these procedures, especially with the upcoming holidays approaching. Your skin will feel so much better and can give you a renewed, healthy glow.

If you desire to have beautiful, perfect looking skin - you are not alone. Many women (and men) have problem areas such as blotchy, uneven skin, blemishes, large pores and those lovely fine lines and wrinkles. There are ways to get better looking skin by having a chemical peel. Each one is unique and designed to promote healthier looking skin, diminishing wrinkles, getting rid of dead skin cells and toning up the skin.

Designer peels are made up of ingredients such as herbs, natural fruit acids, antioxidants as well as other beneficial ingredients to help improve things such as aging, rosacea, acne, hyperpigmentation, environmental changes and other skin conditions. It is the combination of science blended with natural ingredients that give the skin its healthy, smooth look.

There are different types of chemical peels to consider. Some of them penetrate the skin with medium exfoliation while others go deeper to treat some of the more problematic skin such as hyperpigmentation and can smooth out some of the deeper wrinkles in the skin. The results vary depending on the type of peel used, anywhere from around 3 days for medium exfoliation and around 7 days for deeper exfoliation treatments.

Healthier, smoother skin can be achieved without spending a fortune. This is a great way to get your skin looking its best, especially with the upcoming holidays right around the corner. Your skin deserves pampering every once in a while, and this can be achieved with a chemical peel that will not only make your face feel better but it will also look better, healthier and smoother. Check into getting one soon - you will be glad you did.

The Accent XL is a system that works with dual layer radiofrequency thermotherapy to tighten and tone the skin as well as getting rid of cellulite. This very unique system provides two types of radiofrequency technology, the Unipolar and the Bipolar, allowing treatment for two depths of skin tissue.

The Accent XL has been proven to tighten and tone skin as well as getting rid of unwanted wrinkles and cellulite build up in the skin. As it tightens the skin, it also promotes collagen growth which is essential for healthy skin. Most of the areas treated include the neck and chin, the face, abdomen, love handles, hips and thighs as well as the buttocks and much more.

Here is how it works: The area to be treated is heated up using the radiofrequency device at the inner layer (dermis) of the skin which causes a natural reaction to take place, allowing the skin to promote new collagen growth. The dual technology of the radiofrequency, the Bipolar and the Unipolar work together to create beautiful looking skin. The Bipolar RF concentrates on the surface layer of the skin, such as the delicate tissues of the face, smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines while the Unipolar RF targets deeper tissue, creating shape and firmness to the inner layers of the skin. With these two treatments paired together, the end result is tighter, smoother and shaplier looking skin. Treatments can last anywhere from 15 minutes to 45 minutes depending on the area (s) to be treated. It is a wonderful, non-invasive way to improve the skin without undergoing surgery.

Treatment sessions can range anywhere from one or two times up to six to twelve sessions, depending on the patient's skin, but immediate results can be seen after about two sessions. The doctor may suggest more sessions to obtain the best results. With proper diet and exercise, these results can last for quite a long time.

With this new technology, patients are seeing quick results and are completely satisfied with how their skin looks and feels. Everyone at some time in their lives will encounter "problem skin", but when the decision is made to do something about it, this is when lives are changed. When you feel good about yourself, it is evident to others. Having this added confidence can make a difference in anyone's life. Shouldn't you consider it for yourself?

The Skin Ceuticals System gives your skin a healthier, smoother feel and look by combining three important things - protection, correction and preventative. This very unique line of skin care targets troublesome areas such as acne, hyperpigmentation, environmental changes to the skin and is also great for post rejuvenation procedures.

The Skin Ceuticals System is a topical vitamin C that has been specifically formulated to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, correct skin tone and texture. Results can be seen in about two months with regular use, but you will be able to tell the difference immediately in the texture of your skin after the topical C solution has been applied. As the topical C is absorbed into the skin it boosts the production of collagen which is the "protein of the skin", giving you the best looking skin you have ever had. In two months you will be able to visibly see a difference and somewhere between three and eight months, your wrinkles and fine lines will appear less noticeable, giving you younger looking skin.

One of the great things about the Skin Ceuticals System is that your doctor can prescribe this for you to use at home as well as give you an outline for your daily regimen to adhere to in order to keep your skin healthy and renewed looking.

You owe it to yourself to pursue this wonderful way to get smoother, younger looking skin. Cosmetic surgery can be very costly, so you really should check this out as a great way to get healthy skin and save lots of money. Skin Ceuticals can provide you with perfect looking skin in no time.

If you are among the millions of other women (and men) who have spider veins that are easily visible on your face, don't feel lonesome. These tiny reddish-purplish veins are known as telangiestasias and are very common. However, in some cases they can become a real problem when they are prominent in the facial area. There is a quick and easy solution to getting rid of these with a laser treatment.

The laser emits a beam of light which is directed towards the vein, targeted easily by a hand held instrument by the doctor. With energy of the laser, the blood vessel is absorbed but not the tissue around it. The heat from the laser actually coagulates the tiny blood vessel, destroying it where eventually it is returned safely to the body. The laser is a highly technical instrument which is safe, fast and effective.

The treatment lasts only minutes depending on how many blood vessels are to be treated. Repeat treatments are suggested in order to achieve the optimum benefit. It is interesting to note that darker veins are more difficult to remove than pink/reddish ones, but the darker ones can be removed usually with more than one treatment.

There are very minimal, if any side effects to having the laser treatment done. A slight reddening of the skin and some minor swelling and tenderness may ensure but the results are amazing! Your doctor will give you instructions on what to do and not to do after the treatment is done, such as applying extra sunscreen and avoiding sun exposure for a while. Ice can be applied to the area if there is any discomfort.

It is a great way to get rid of the spider veins that are so visible that they cannot be covered up completely by makeup. Even the best and most expensive makeup sometimes will not cover up these pesky little things. Having laser treatment (s) is the best way to rid yourself of these facial spider veins once and for all.

If you are tired of constantly shaving, plucking and waxing your facial and body hair, then this is the solution for you. FDA approved, laser hair removal can remove that unwanted facial and body hair permanently. There are very minimal side effects, if any and you will never have to worry about shaving ever again.

There are six sessions in total for the process which is spread out over an 8 to 10 week period. By using new technology, specifically the Cutera CoolGlide, the treatments last just seconds and are safe for all types of skin. Men and women alike are experiencing this wonderful way to get rid of unwanted body and facial hair. Remember electrolysis? If you don't know anything about this, it is a very painful and tedious way to remove hair as each hair follicle is injected with a needle to deliver an electrical charge to each one - sounds painful doesn't it?

Laser hair removal doesn't have to be painful. In fact, about the only side effect from having the treatments are a slight reddening of the skin which usually goes away by a couple of hours. The Cutera CoolGlide does just what it says, providing quick, and effective hair removal within seconds. After your treatments you may notice what looks like hair re-growth but it is actually the hair being shed, not growing back. Your results are permanent - so no more shaving, EVER.

If this sounds interesting to you, contact an experienced esthetician who offers the Cutera CoolGlide. You will be very pleased with the results!
