Ways to brighten your skin

Our skin is constantly an indicator of our lifestyles and stress levels. Stress, facial contractions, breakouts and dry skin caused by poor diet or genetics all contribute to wrinkles and lines on the skin. So what can we do to treat ourselves well and treat our skin with respect? Listed below are a few of the best medical grade ways to rejuvenate your skin and maintain its healthy glow. Currently, medical grade facials such as Secret RF, Fraxel, and Mesotherapy are the most popular procedures, according to Dr. Schwarzburg. Also, there are some things you can do to take preventative measures to avoid wrinkles and skin irregularities. These things include botox and simple daily measures that will help you keep your skin clean.

There are a wide variety of medical grade facials available that can treat a variety of skin problems. Certain treatments are geared more toward treating deeper layers of the skin (like secret RF and micro needling), while others are targeted at more superficial layers, like the Fraxel laser treatment. Depending on the issues you have with your skin, one treatment may be more appropriate than another.

To prevent fine lines and wrinkles from appearing, there are several preventative measures, such as botox. Botox can be injected into areas where wrinkles often appear, such as between your eyebrows (frown lines or 11s), horizontal wrinkles on your forehead, or crow's feet around your eyes, to restrict facial contractions and prevent wrinkles from forming.

Treatments with mesotherapy may be administered intradermally or by microneedling, which tightens and moisturizes the skin. Many of Dr. Schwarzburg's patients at Skinly Aesthetics receive monthly mesotherapy sessions in addition to more intensive treatments. To keep their skin maintained, some people also have micro needling sessions weekly or biweekly (without the mesotherapy solution).

Which treatment will be most effective for you?

It can be a great option for you to have one or a combination of several treatments, depending on your needs. The Secret RF treatment uses radiofrequency energy to decrease fine lines and wrinkles, tighten your skin, and minimize the size of your pores. In addition, it can be used to treat acne scars and sagginess. Radiation technology used in micro-needling causes controlled damage to your skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production as it attempts to heal itself.

Laser treatment Fraxel can reduce fine lines and wrinkles, smooth out your skin, minimize pore size, or correct pigmentation and damage caused by the sun. Like Secret RF, Fraxel results in controlled damage to the skin and increases collagen and elastin production.

Depending on your skin type and how the procedure affects you, it is important to consult with your doctor. People with cystic acne should stay away from laser and heat treatments, as the acne could spread.

Are there other ways you can take care of your skin?

Stay hydrated and live a healthy lifestyle. Nutritious meals and adequate vitamin and mineral intake are important. Sunscreen is extremely important if you enjoy spending time in the sun. If you are very prone to sunburns, apply sunscreen on a daily basis. Sun can make your skin dry and crepey and can accelerate the aging process, causing wrinkles.

Keep your skin clean. After wearing makeup throughout the day, it's extremely important to remove it thoroughly at night. Using makeup can clog your pores and cause breakouts, leading to scarring and irregular skin tone. Another thing you should avoid is sleeping on an unclean pillow and holding your dirty phone up to your face. Regularly washing your sheets and sanitizing your phone will help make sure this doesn't happen.

Botox and medical-grade facials are among the skin-care options you can take advantage of, as are simple skin-care steps you can take regularly to keep it healthy according to experts at MiracleFace MedSpa.
