Skin Conditions & Challenges

Aging skin:

  • Loss of elasticity and firmness caused by:
  • The slowing down of cell turnover due to aging
  • Drugs of any type
  • Sun damage causing brown spots and permanent redness
  • Gravity
  • Bacteria - Free Radical Damage
  • Inflammation due to poor diet, hormone imbalance or other physical ailments that create a slowing down of elimination
  • Lack of absorption of vitamins needed for healthy cell generation
  • Lack of proper sleep which gives cells strength and encourages regeneration of new cells
  • Lack of moisture and vitamins in the epidermis and dermis (lower layers) due to the build up of dead cells on the surface so nourishment is blocked from reaching the new, growing cells.
  • An excessive amount of thick moisturizer used actually helps to build up dead skin cells and block delivery of good products to the dermis where new cells are produced.
Solution: See our Deep Exfoliation Program

 

Wrinkles

  • Lack of moisture and protein (Hyaluronic Acid) in the deeper layers and outer layers causing cross-linking (fibers thatching together to gain strength)
  • Dry undernourished skin in the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous layers caused by lack of vitamins, smoking, drugs and over drying skin care products

 

Acne Scars

  • Acne pit scars and various types of scarring caused by pustules, blackheads, cysts, excessively oily skin caused by heredity, high pH products, poor diet or picking pimples open before they are ready
  • When scarring occurs, skin is tightly compressed so extra product must be used on these areas. A healthy diet must be adhered to including eight glasses of water per day.

Add several micro-dermabrasions to assist in faster exfoliation.

 

Redness/Rosacia

  • Redness is caused by various skin challenges.
  • Often heredity has brought this skin tone to you giving you thin capillary walls that bust easily. However, more often, it is caused by the family creating the problem by staying out too long in the sun; drinking too much alcohol or wine; eating too much hot spicy food or bathing or showering in hot water regularly.
  • Also, high blood pressure or just flushing easily when you exercise or get hot can cause redness.
  • There is also a skin challenge called Rosacia which shows up as redish blotches on the skin and often is rough to the touch.

Solution: See our Gentle Exfoliation Program

  • Using a cortorizing machine to cut off the blood flow to the larger broken capillaries is essential. Some use laser as means to remove them.
  • Then nourishing and strengthening of the cells surrounding the area and also the area it'self is paramount in lessoning this condition.
  • This area sometimes feels hot to the touch so we recommend Anti-aging Serum and Calming Gel as an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant.
  • Our 25% Amazing Ester C Serum will help in the elimination of Free Radicals and inflammation, also.
