Count down for your wedding has started. If you’ve never had microdermabrasion, a chemical peel, laser treatment or an Intraceuticals facial but want to try one,hit a dermatologist’s office, not a spa. Yes, some spas are good at these kinds of treatments, but many arenot, and you just don’t want to take that chance before your big day.

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion sloughs off the dead and dull surface layers of the skin, stimulating an increase in collagen production and rejuvenation. Many patients see dramatic improvements in the tone, texture, and color of treated areas after just one treatment. Microdermabrasion can also improve:

• Oily or dull skin
• Enlarged pores
• Clogged pores
• Fine lines
• Mild acne scars
• Mild Complexion problems

Laser or Light Facial

Light and laser skin treatments use high energy light to remove unwanted spots and smooth the texture of the skin. As the light passes through the skin, red and brown spots, fine lines, and other skin blemishes absorb greater amounts of the energy than the normal surrounding skin. The increased energy neutralizes the blemishes and within a matter of days, they begin to fade. Light and laser facial treatments are effective for treating:

• Age spots,
• Wrinkles,
• Freckles,
• Spider veins,
• Facial redness,
• Cherry angiomas,
• Hemangiomas,
• Some pigmented moles,
• Some red and brown birthmarks,
• Enlarged pores,
• Uneven skin tone and texture, and more.

Alpha & Beta Hydroxy Acid Peel

The basic concept of Chemical Peels is really rather simple. The pH of the skin (the measurement of its acidity) is 5.5 which is slightly Acid, so that anything that is applied to the skin deviating from the pH of 5.5 will tend to cause some irritation and “burn” the skin. The burning of the skin then causes a healing process. It is in the process of healing that the benefits are obtained.

Glycolic Acid is a commonly used Alpha Hydroxy Peel. The beauty of Alpha Hydroxy Peels is that they are safe with only a few instances of scarring and other side effects reported.

Salicylic Acid is the new generation of products for improving the appearance of ageing skin. Dermatologists now agree that Beta Hydroxy, Salicylic Acid is a superior exfoliant that improves the appearance of ageing, sun-damaged skin without all the irritations associated with the Alpha Hydroxy, Glycolic Acid.A beta hydroxy acids affinity for oil makes it especially valuable in treating oily skin.
