Carboxytherapy Treatment: For Stretchmarks And More

Up to very recently, stretch marks were pretty much untreatable no matter what method you tried.  Carboxy Therapy is gaining in popularity and showing great promise by softening stretch marks by increasing the blood flow to the stretch mark areas and allowing them to constrict and contract, thus blending them better with the surrounding healthy skin. Injecting very small amounts of carbon dioxide gas just below the surface of the skin, the procedure tricks it (the skin) into increasing blood circulation in the treated area. Carboxytherapy causes the formation of new collagen and subsequently thickens the skin to improve the appearance of the stretch marks by rebuilding the collagen matrix.

Carboxytherapy is being used as a treatment for dark under eye circle smoothing and removal also, and with good success.  The treatment of stretch marks and scars is a relatively fast and painless process. This popular procedure is allowing people to start feeling better about themselves on the inside, by looking better on the outside.

New Thermage Acne Treatment

July 11, 2011 by  

I think we all know too well the agony of having “zits” or acne.  Acne affects all ages, and in various ways. Most of us have suffered from acne and the scars that acne leaves, some for years into adulthood. It seems that in years gone by, the best advice you could receive was to not eat chocolate, oily foods, nuts, or a lot of sweets.  It never worked for me.

Fortunately, acne sufferers today have more options when searching for a remedy. Aside from topical and oral medications, technological developments in science and technology continue to develop treatments to effectively cure frequent and severe acne conditions.
One of the fairly new, and successful acne treatments is the Thermage Acne therapy procedure.

Many physicians and skin specialists claim that this treatment could prove to be the ultimate cure for acne problems because it has no lasting side effects and can provide outstanding results after one or two treatments.  The result of the Thermage Acne treatment can last from six to 24 months depending on the patient’s skin type. Thermage will not only treat acne but minimize acne scarring as well.

What is Thermage Acne Treatment?
The Thermage Acne treatment is a non-surgical cosmetic skin treatment that was initially used as an anti-aging solution, and is now used to treat acne. As an acne treatment, Thermage is used to treat chronic acne breakouts and severe acne conditions, and to minimize acne scarring. Ultimately, Thermage will provide a tighter, firmer and smoother skin.

The Thermage acne device uses deep heating action that tightens the skin and promotes the production of new, healthy collagen and skin cells (which is why Thermage was originally used to treat wrinkles). These functions are what make the skin firmer and smoother. Most patients report tighter and smoother skin almost instantly. The Thermage Acne Treatment is different from laser because it is compatible on all skin types. The FDA has approved this treatment.

A trained physician with expertise in cosmetic treatments can do the Thermage Acne procedure. The Thermage Acne treatment is individualized for each patient so its benefits are maximized. The entire Thermage Acne procedure usually lasts from 1 to 2 hours. A single treatment can produce impressive results with the patient’s skin feeling tighter and smoother almost immediately.

Silkpeel Consults

April 18, 2011 by  

Dr Lisa explains the Silkpeel process.

The Japanese will use shaving or a scapple to exfoliate the skin. This uses the same idea to use infusion to push vitamins and minerals into the skin to help the collagen to regenerate. This is much kinder to the skin than the old ways using microdermabrasian. This leaves the skin silky smooth. It gets rid of black heads. She can infuse Vitamin C and or  Lumixyl.  Her celebrity clients love it before a shoot.

Well the dailymakeover is reporting that Demi Moore loves Thermage.

The 48-year-old actress–who is married to 32-year-old actor Ashton Kutcher–is said to have started using the Thermage skin-tightening technique, a non-surgical procedure which uses radio frequency to heat the deeper layers of the skin, while cooling the skin’s surface.

Demi has always stood for beauty and from some thermage before and after photos seems to indicate she is on the right track.

Well summer is over and I’m sitting here looking at my dried out alligator looking skin.  Too much summer sun.  A great treatment for bad wrinkles, sagging skin and discoloration is the Thermage Procedures which can remedy telltale signs of aging in the face and can be used to tighten the body skin.  Thermage is an FDA approved procedure and is non invasive.  I don’t like knives, so that’s important to me and I think many people feel the same way.  When there are knives present, there’s a change for infection.
