Ageless Skin Health : Too Much Skin Treatment
On a recent business trip to Ottawa to visit a medical spa that I work with, I was treated to a wonderful paraffin treatment for my feet. Heaven! While relaxing in the pedicure chair, I grabbed the opportunity to glance through some magazines. Heaven again! In the January 2008 issue of Marie Claire I came across an article written by Meredith Bryan on "How Much is Too Much?" The article featured quotes by 2 top Dermatologists speaking about their experience with women who treat their skin too aggressively for too long – all to detrimental effect.
Ms. Bryan speaks with Dr Patricia Wexler, a prominent Manhattan dermatologist who says that some women who land in her waiting room are victims of the rubber-mask effect. "Their skin has no texture whatsoever; it’s been peeled and lasered so much that it’s lineless and has no pores." She also speaks with Dr Harold Lancer, a Beverly Hills dermatologist who explains the problem with today’s anti aging gluttons thusly: "Too much laser work, and you appear a little marbleized. Too many chemical peels, and you look chronically inflamed. And then you have the overfilled look, like a puffer fish."
"MODWOMEN - remember that you need to take a well balanced approach treating your skin. In conjunction with some lasering, peeling procedures, and injectables that may be appropriate for your skin issues, you need to feed your skin with all of the ingredients it needs to repair the damage from the sun. Repairing damaged skin means getting back to a much more youthful and healthy appearance. Watch your skin regenerate and glow as you turn back the clock by using the appropriate active vitamin treatment products in your home care routine. Phenomenal results can be achieved by booking a series of advanced medical facials at your medispa. I recommend the Environ enhanced vitamin penetration treatment that uses pulsed galvanic current, in combination with low frequency ultrasound, to achieve a 4000% increase in penetration into your skin of the active ingredients needed for skin rejuvenation and anti aging results."
