After a thorough skin analysis,
a customized skin care regimen will be designed using corrective
and preventative measures to achieve your desired results for conditions
such as:
Acne – Acne is the most common skin condition,
affecting nearly 45 million Americans each year. Acne develops
where there are more oil glands present, e.g. face, scalp, chest,
back and neck. There are many different types of acne and each
patient should be treated according to their particular case.
Aging – Aging of the skin is a result
of many different factors that can be broken into two categories:
intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic or uncontrollable aging is
chronological and genetic. Facial wrinkling, expression lines
and drier, more sensitive skin may be a result of intrinsic aging.
The extrinsic or more controllable factors of aging refer to
exposure to the sun and/or pollutants which cause a breakdown
of the skin’s structure, leading to discoloration, wrinkles,
skin growths and even cancer. Many skin scientists believe the
extrinsic factors are to blame for 90% of the visible signs of
aging. When attempting to correct signs of aging, it is important
to use products that not only treat, but also prevent future
damage from occurring.
Hyperpigmentation (skin discoloration) – Hyperpigmentation
is the darkening of an area of skin. Causes of hyperpigmentation
range from sun damage caused by UV exposure, hormone fluctuations
due to pregnancy or menopause, and skin injuries such as acne
scarring. Certain skin types can also be more susceptible to
hyperpigmentation. It is important to consult with a skin care
professional prior to using products to even skin discoloration
as high percentages of strong ingredients can cause further irritation
and lead to more discoloration.
Rosacea – Rosacea is a somewhat misunderstood
skin condition. Currently, there is no known cure or cause. Rosacea
is generally characterized by persistent redness and/or breakouts
on the central areas of the face, commonly affecting the nose,
cheeks, forehead and chin. Although there is no cure, there are
many different methods of controlling rosacea symptoms. There
are medical therapies that work well in conjunction with cosmeceuticals
and professional treatments to control rosacea symptoms. Consult
a physician for a diagnosis and treatment recommendations.
Advanced aesthetic treatments are customized to accelerate your
skin’s individual transformation and ever changing needs. Results
are cumulative, as improvement increases over a series of treatments. |
