Is Microdermabrasion Effective?

by: JackieWinstanley Since it first appeared in Europe the skin care treatment known as microdermabrasion has grown in popularity year after year. Today it is one of the, if not the, most popular treatments on both sides of the Atlantic ocean. Utilizing a microdermabrasion machine fine crystals of aluminum oxide are blown, under pressure, onto the surface of the skin. The crystals remove the dead and dying skin cells on the surface which are then sucked back up into the machine. Microdermabrasion is described as a non-invasive cosmetic procedure and, as such, the treatment carries little or no risked when it is performed by a professional who has been suitably trained and fully understands the nature of skin. Although the process is simple and can now be performed, using professional techniques, in the home with equipment costing as little as $200 the professional machines are far more powerful and, obviously, produce far better results (depending upon the skill of the technician). Som...

How To Find The Most Effective Acne Treatments

by: NathanJames It's dreaded by teenagers everywhere - regardless of their skin color, the language they speak or what social circles they run in. If anything is going to bring the youth of today together in a common cause, it's the fight against acne. Teenagers everywhere are constantly on the lookout for effective acne treatments, but just as acne can come in many forms and degrees of severity, there are many different treatments available. The one that will work best for one person won't necessarily be the best for someone else. Before you can decide on the best treatment option, it helps to understand what it is that actually causes acne. It's commonly believed to be caused by poor hygiene, but that isn't the case. It is actually caused by changes in the body that can't (and shouldn't) be stopped. Teenage acne is often due to hormonal changes in the body that causes excess secretion of oil, which can block pores and trap dirt and moisture. The result is ...

The importance of anti aging eye cream

by: GeoffHopkins As on old saying goes; "The eyes are the window to the soul." If you were to ask, wouldn't you want to have good looking eyes? Unfortunately, as we age, so does our skin. Over time, the make up of our skin becomes thinner, weaker, splotchier, drier, and more fragile, while unhealthy lifestyle choices, sun exposure, and environmental pollutants take a ravaging toll by accelerating that process upon our skin. In order for us to fight the signs of aging, we should have the basic understanding about the aging process of the skin. As we age, the development of skin cells becomes slow. There is also a decrease in the production of elastin and collagen into the skin making the skin less elastic and dry. The area around the eyes is the thinnest area of the face. The first signs of aging appear mostly on these areas. People must focus more on this area when they are using anti wrinkle eye creams. Wrinkles that are found on the outer corners of the eyes are called ...

Wrinkles - Cause and Remedy

by: Dr.WaldoSilverstein Dry skin which is prone to flaking is not attractive and lack of moisture in the skin is also a major cause of wrinkles. To keep your skin cells plumped up, you should make sure your body is sufficiently hydrated every day. You need to moisturize inside and out, in order to avoid wrinkles. Drink plenty water. So, it is very important to drink a significant amount of water every day. Generally, the warmer it is, or the more active you are, the more water your body needs to replenish. There is no harm in drinking 8 - 10 glasses of water every day. Once you begin this regiment, you will see many other benefits in other facets of your life and health. Smoking is another factor in increasing the likelihood of a person having premature wrinkles and deep-set wrinkles. Smoking decreases blood flow to the skin, and reduces the oxygen in the blood. Without sufficient oxygen and essential nutrients the skin wrinkles. The skin's elasticity is diminished and the skin sag...

The Cause of Stretch Mark Signs in Women

by: MaiaPells Both men and women may equally be affected by the cause of stretch mark signs. Women however may have more drastic stretch mark conditions that may have a negative impact on life in general. What May Cause Stretch Mark Signs For both men and women, the main cause of stretch mark signs is the same. A rapid expansion of the body can cause inner skin tissues to overstretch and eventually tear. The torn tissues later become scar tissues that become white or silver in color through time. Women however may be more prone to this skin condition because of one natural cause of stretch mark signs that men do not experience-pregnancy. The rapid expansion of the abdomen in pregnant women may particularly result in ugly ragged lines. Can Stretch Marks Affect Your Life? People are most likely to tell you that no matter how severe your stretch mark condition is, stretch marks are harmless and non-fatal. Still, stretch marks are not only skin-deep. Severe stretch mark conditions can have...
