Skin care – More useful facts Skin care – you just cannot do enough to care for the largest organ of your body. As we promised in our last article, here are more tips on effective skin care. Your skin needs nourishment and care if you want it to look radiant and healthy. All these tips have been compiled based on feedback collected from leading journals as well as the best of Cosmetic Physicians in Cheshire. What are you waiting for – read on and be on your way to healthy and fresh skin. 11. Contrary to popular belief not all commercially sold beauty products are harmful. If manufactured by a reputed company and prescribed for a specific reason by a qualified Cosmetic Dermatologist, their benefits are immense. However it is in your best interest to refrain from self-prescribing such products. 12. When using make up, ensure that it is of high quality, applied correctly, suitable for your skin type and also that it is removed correctly. Long-term use of make-up doesn’t affect the natural oils and texture of your skin if the above steps are followed. 13. Non-invasive cosmetic treatments such as Botox, Dermal Fillers and Laser Treatments are a boon because they don’t require surgical procedures. The treatments themselves are effective, quick with minimal recovery periods, hence their immense popularity. Remember, it’s never too late to start caring for your skin. 14. Botox does not harm the body. What is injected is a purified toxin. It relaxes the muscle where it is injected and is an excellent treatment for lines, creases, wrinkles, crow’s feet etc. 15. A great way for women to progress with skin care treatments is as follows: When in your 20’s and 30’s you can start with Microdermabrasionnon-chemical peels, which remove dead, outer skin layers, delaying the ageing process. As you age, your Cosmetic Dermatologist can advice you on the most suited procedure for you. When in your 40’s you may wish to rid yourself of wrinkles and folds near your nose and mouth and can opt for fillers or even skin tightening. Consider laser rejuvenation when you reach the 50’s to wipe off almost 10 years from your face! 16. Always remember that you skin is a reflection of your internal system as well. Certain skin problems may be due to issues other than ageing. It pays to seek advice from a reputed Cosmetic Dermatologist. We cannot emphasise enough on how important it is to ensure you take advice and get treated by a qualified and skilled Cosmetic Dermatologist from your locality. Remember that you skin too, like all your other organs of your body needs to be cared for and nurtured. November 11th, 2011
A brow lift is all about elevating the upper face and is mainly a feminine feature. There are two different solutions that Cheshire Cosmetic offers. The primary one being, Botox, helps reduce the power of the brow depressors to pave way for the elevators to “lift” the brow up. The second option is to use Dermal Fillers around the upper face region; particularly the temples for hollowing and that goes on to support the outer 1/3 of the brow, giving the arch of the brow a more attractive appearance. Botox hits specific target areas on the face and therefore it is essential to clearly map out the trigger spots that need weakening, to obtain the desired results. The treatment itself will be your own little secret, where people will notice a subtle and youthful change in your appearance. Always remember, when you seek any type of cosmetic treatment, ensure that your physician is adequately skilled, trained and regulated so that you know you are in safe hands. Most of these treatments are offered at many practices across the UK, and it makes it that more important for you to clearly identify a cosmetic dermatologist who is credible. If you are interested in a specific cosmetic procedure or require a FREE consultation, Dr Acquilla and his highly trained staff will be more than delighted to oblige. November 11th, 2011
Lower facelifts are generally associated with cosmetic “surgery”. Cheshire Cosmetic is fully equipped to implement non-surgical facelifts. The treatment is an embodiment of two procedures. Firstly, volume loss and movement of fatty tissues from the lower face are treated. Next, the hyperactive state of the muscles in the lower face is focused upon.The combination of the two procedures gives fantastic results and often surpasses the expectations of patients.
The crucial step prior to implementing the procedures is mapping the face in detail to clearly identify pockets of volume loss and to understand the movement of the volume. The next step is to replace the lost volume. Facial depressors too are weakened in order to allow the elevators of the face to kick in and thereby generate the “lifting” affect. The end result is subtle and elegant allowing you to look well and fresh. November 11th, 2011
Contrary to popular belief, laser is not penetrative nor is it harmful, as it’s simply light, operated at varying wavelengths. The laser is focused on the affected area at a predetermined wavelength to destroy targets in the affected area whilst leaving tissue in surrounding areas untouched. The entire procedure causes a very low level of damage and contains minimal risk, if administered by an expert. Potential targets of laser treatment are melanin (found in pigment and also hair shaft if you have dark hair); haemoglobin (red pigment in blood), attacking which helps treat thread veins, blue veins and varicose veins. Certain types of dyes and inks found in tattoos too can be attacked using laser, which imperative for tattoo removals. Downtime following the treatment is dependent on the type of treatment administered. If the area being treated is very specific, such as thread veins, pigmentation or hair, you will generally be up and about by the end of the day or the next day at the latest. However, if a problem like water is being treated, since it is located everywhere in the tissue, downtime maybe anywhere between 1-2 weeks. October 18th, 2011
