FALL TO WINTER: SKINCARE GUIDE

When the first winter breeze blows through the trees you can feel the magic in the air. Cold weather brings people closer, and we yearn for love, warmth, and connection. However, transitioning to the new season might also mean to be the beginning of our winter skin woes, especially if we suffer from dryness and flakes. During this time of the year, our skin loses its moisture, causing it to become dry, itchy, and irritable. In some cases, it can even lead to psoriasis, eczema, and other skin conditions.

Switching to a skincare routine designed to keep our skin healthy in cold temperatures doesn’t have to be difficult. With just a few adjustments, you can maintain a radiant complexion year-round.

Here’s a handy guide to transitioning your skincare routine for winter.

Best Skincare Guide for Winter:

1. Cleanse 

The key to keeping skin clean and free of accumulated dirt is cleansing twice daily, both in the morning and at night. However, foam-based cleansers are not recommended during Winter as it contributes to drying out the skin, which is why we suggest switching to an oil-based cleanser that gently removes impurities without stripping moisture. There’s no better like:

Eminence Organic Skin Care Firm Skin Acai Cleanser 8.4 fl. oz - DermstoreEMINENCE FIRM SKIN ACAI CLEANSER– This cleanser is Antioxidant-rich acai berries that are perfect for revitalizing mature skin. This cream cleanser also blends hyaluronic acid and seabuckthorn oil to restore the appearance of elasticity to the skin and present a more youthful look. Cruelty-free and formulated without parabens, sodium lauryl sulfates, synthetic dyes, petrochemicals, animal by-products, phthalates, GMOs, and triclosan.

 

2. Moisturize

During the winter season, reach for heavy-duty creams and moisturizers to hydrate parched skin, and support the skin’s barrier to help protect the skin from the damaging effects of the cold weather.  We recommend searching for formulas made with hydrating ingredients, like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, essential oils, and/or glycerin. For example, we like the iS Clinical Moisturising Complex because it offers up to  24 hours of hydration for a soft, smooth, and healthy-looking complexion. We recommend:

iS Clinical Moisturizing Complex | In Stock | Nationwide DeliveryiS CLINICAL MOISTURIZING COMPLEX – This moisturizer by iS Clinical has a rich, creamy texture that absorbs quickly into the skin with a non-greasy finish. Its protective barrier is packed with antioxidants to guard the skin against environmental damage. The moisturizing ingredients that we can’t get enough of in iS Clinical Moisturising Complex are hyaluronic acid and glycerin, as they can retain and restore impressive amounts of moisture. Plus, vitamins and bio-nutrients help maintain your skin’s health throughout cooler months.

Eminence Organic Skin Care Apricot Body Oil 8.2 fl. Oz - DermstoreEMINENCE APRICOT BODY OIL– Eminence Organics Apricot Body Oil combines moisturizing apricot oil with grapeseed, jojoba, and seabuckthorn oils to leave skin supple and touchably soft. This natural body oil blend is also packed with antioxidants that protect skin from free radical damage and minimize signs of aging like wrinkles and uneven skin tone. This multipurpose oil can also be used to hydrate very dry skin on the elbows and knees, or you can add a drop or two to your favorite moisturizer for even richer hydration.

3. Exfoliate

Fall and winter’s dry conditions can be highly irritating to your skin, and you may begin to notice flaky, dry patches on your face and body. Exfoliation is a great way to stimulate the production of the skin’s natural oils and product absorption. To maintain skin in the autumn and winter, choose a gentle exfoliator and exfoliate as part of your night routine to avoid making your skin more vulnerable during the day. If your skin needs a jump start, consider a Chemical Peel. Rather than working on the surface of the skin, chemical exfoliation works at the cellular level to improve the condition and appearance of the skin. Try this:

KUL - Exfoliating Cleanser – HEMP.coKUL CBD Exfoliating Cleanser– This sulfate-free, polishing cleanser combines the purest quality Full Spectrum CBD with Apricot Seed to gently exfoliate & remove makeup, oil & dead skin cells to reveal healthy, radiant-looking skin. You can see effective results immediately as this sulfate-free, polishing cleanser travels deep into pores to remove the impurities & helps condition the skin. Balancing probiotics & antioxidants encourage smoother, brighter, more even skin tone.

4. Protect

Our skin can be damaged by UV rays all around the year. Use a mineral-based SPF for its lightness, breathability, ocean-friendliness, and ease of use. We recommend:

Eclipse SPF 50 | SPF 50 Sunscreen | iS ClinicaliS CLINICAL ECLIPSE SPF 50– Formulated specifically for daily use and extended outdoor activities, Eclipse SPF 50+ is a unique fusion of scientifically advanced physical sunscreens – transparent Titanium Dioxide and micronized Zinc Oxide – coupled with pure Vitamin E. This antioxidant-rich blend provides superior water-resistant broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection. Eclipse SPF 50+ is an ultra sheer, lightweight formula that absorbs quickly for a non-greasy matte finish.

BBalanced - Natural Medicine | EMINENCE ORGANIC SKIN CARE - LIP TRIO KIT COUNT/PK 3EMINENCE LIP TRIO–  Erase the appearance of winter dryness and treat your lips with a naturally effective three-step treatment. Gentle fruit enzymes refine the lip area, followed by an extra-rich masque that deeply hydrates. Finish with a delicious minty non-petroleum-based take-home balm that stimulates lip-plumping collagen.

5. Nourish

The most effective way to get healthy skin is to maintain a good diet and drink enough water. Eat squashes like butternut and pumpkin that are rich in beta-carotene. This helps to aid cell renewal, regulates skin function, and promotes collagen production. Also, aim to incorporate “healthy fats” into your diet, including foods like salmon, avocado, and nuts. These foods contain essential omega-3 fatty acids, which improve the health of skin cell membranes. When eaten regularly, you can help reduce inflammatory skin conditions and improve the overall appearance of your skin.

To give your skin an extra boost of moisture, use a humidifier to maintain a more comfortable humidity level in your home.

When it comes to fall and winter skincare, the above adjustments would help with your winter skin woes, even when the temperatures drop. If you’d like to consult for personalized skincare recommendations, visit DESUAR Spa at our three branches across LA.

WHAT IS LAVA SHELL MASSAGE GOOD FOR?

 Warm up this season, and Release your stress.

Autumn is a perfect time to renew your commitment to self-care and begin a new wellness routine. Massage therapy in colder months warms up your muscles and helps circulate fresh, oxygenated blood throughout your body. DESUAR Spa offers a wide variety of massage therapy suited for your needs, one of which uses Tiger Clams, which are said to work wonders on blocked energy flow and even Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

What is a Lava Shell massage?

Lava Shells massage is an indulgent treatment that uses elements of Mother Nature using heat to bring relief to tense muscles, sore joints, stressed emotions, and weary spirits. Smooth, heated lava seashells are skillfully combined with massage for an exceptional spa experience. This treatment uses real shells from the Philippines. The heat comes from inside the Shells due to a mixture of minerals and algae combined with salt water and essential oils. When they are combined inside the shell, it creates a chemical reaction that causes heat for one or two hours.

The Lava Shell can radiate heat for up to an hour, allowing your therapist to provide a continuous and seamless warm full-body massage. The heat from the tiger-striped clam shells along with the deep tissue pressure point massage eases away muscle tension, releases energy flow, and restores a sense of balance to the body and mind.

Benefits of Lava Shells Massage

The Lava Shell Massage benefits are endless. The treatment is truly pleasing and the warmth of the shells gliding over your body would surely send you into a state of deep relaxation. Heat allows deeper work to penetrate layers of tension, reducing tight, tense muscles effectively. It delivers a seamless massage of heat and touch, thus continual heat of the shells relaxes your muscles. The smooth texture and shape of the surfaces contour the body, and the angles and edges of the shell allow for deeper work into muscles as the shells become an extension of the therapists’ hands. It improves circulation and freedom in the body as more oxygen and nutrients are brought to the tissues thus promoting healthy well-being. It is best for those with:

  • Aches and pains
  • Menstrual cramps
  • Digestive problems
  • Depression
  • Stress, tension, and anxiety
  • Lethargy and feeling run-down
  • Arthritis
  • IBS and bloating
  • Sore, tired muscles

Heated treatments work to remove toxins from cells, enhance blood flow, increase the function of tissue cells, relaxation of sore, stiff muscles, and relief of painful arthritic joints.

Who shouldn’t have a Lava Shell massage?

  • Anyone who’s recently had an operation
  • If you have an active cancer
  • Pregnant Woman
  • Suffering from Epilepsy
  • DVT

If you are eco-friendly and ready to take your wellness routine, Lava Shell massage is the best therapy you wouldn’t fail to try. It will leave you feeling recharged, rejuvenated, and refreshed. Imagine helping the planet while you are de-stressing.

Best Aesthetic Treatments for the Autumn

Photos courtesy of unsplash.com,sheknows.com and news18.com

Fall breeze and autumn leaves. A shift to a new season means a change to our skincare routines too because it’s not just the leaves that change with the welcoming of autumn; your skin does, too. Skin tightness, dry patches, flakiness, and eczema flare-ups can dampen the changing season. Critical symptoms of “autumn skin” include dryness, dull and sallow skin tone, sun spots, flaking, and irritation as well as the flare-up of some chronic conditions. Luckily, there are many treatments available at DESUAR Spa that our skin can benefit to autumn-proof our skin

Fall is for Facials

Fall is the best time of year to rejuvenate your skin and repair all the summer sun damage. DESUAR Spa is proud to offer highly effective dry skin therapy. Dry skin refers to the amount of oil we produce within the skin. Many people associate dryness with dehydration. However, if the oil levels within your skin are correct, the water content of the skin is almost always healthy. Our facials will help give your skin the moisture it needs! Our customized facial treatments use a variety of products, massage techniques, and equipment that will leave your skin fresh and hydrated. Facials are vital for repairing your skin. The effects of sun, wind, pollution, etc. can cause permanent damage if they’re not addressed. Facials can help reverse this damage and keep your skin in its best shape. Book a facial here.

Aesthetic treatment options for the Autumn

In order to maximize the results from a treatment, it’s important to plan according to the season and your schedule. Autumn provides the perfect storm of elements to achieve top results and a discreet and comfortable recovery. Here are some treatments we recommend taking advantage of during the sweater weather. 

Top 3 Steps to Upgrade your Autumn / Winter Skin Care Routine - Dr Terry LoongChemical peels– After the summer you may be left with more sun-damaged skin, age spots, and wrinkles. Chemical peels are incredible for so many skin concerns. Lines and wrinkles, age spots, blemishes, Acne scarring, and Pigmentation are a few. However, practitioners generally agree that the best time of year to get skin peels is autumn/winter. Chemical peels use a reactive chemical solution to remove the undesirable layer of skin. A chemical peel sounds like a harsh treatment, but in reality, it can greatly vary from gentle to strong depending on the type of solution used for your skin’s needs.

  • Microneedling– This treatment requires strict SPF use and limited sun exposure making it another great treatment to consider during the months ahead. It’s clinically proven to help stimulate collagen production and is a non-invasive skin treatment that uses ultra-thin titanium needles which create tiny micro-injuries in the very first layer of the skin’s surface.
  • HydraFacial: The HydraFacial MD® resurfacing procedure is a wonderful all-in-one way for us to care for your skin. The HydraFacial® cleanses, peels, extracts, unclogs, de-greases, purifies, and hydrates the skin for instantly glowing skin with a reduction of fine lines, acne, and uneven skin tone, without irritation or downtime. Unlike other systems, HydraFacial® hydrates not with water, but with the Vortex-Fusion® method using Antioxidants and Hyaluronic Acid to hydrate, nourish, and protect! Signature + includes any booster and lymphatic

  • Dermaplaning – If you haven’t already booked a dermaplaning appointment with us, Fall is the perfect time to give it a try! This not only removes peach fuzz but also does an amazing job of getting rid of dead skin cells to give your skin a fresh (& smooth) new surface. It’s the perfect treatment for the Fall season as it helps your skin shed all of the dead cells that you accumulated from a few months spent in the sun.

  • CRYO COOLRESTORE BODY FAT REDUCTION & FIRMING– Fall is the ideal season to spend some time reaching your weight loss or body shaping goals. While the treatments can be a welcome and warm retreat from cooler temps and rainy days, the season’s warmer layers act to veil your transformation, as treatment plans generally require six to eight sessions to see optimal results. This leads to greater excitement once you finally reveal your stunning results, whether that’s in an elegant, body-hugging holiday gown or on a tropical vacation in the new year.
  • Laser hair removal – If you’re looking for a more permanent solution for unwanted facial hair or excess body hair, laser hair removal is the perfect option. A course of treatments to fully destroy the follicle can leave the skin temporarily sensitive to sunlight and you may experience some redness and irritation immediately after. For exposed skin areas such as legs, arms and face, consider starting the treatment in September.

Autumn indeed isn’t all fun and games, especially not where your skincare is concerned. Thankfully, there are treatments to optimize your skincare routine for the season.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most widely studied components of the Cannabis Sativa plant, specifically the variety known as Hemp which has been bred to reduce the amount of THC (the psycho-active ingredient that causes the “high”). It is one of over 100 Cannabinoids that are contained in the plant and is believed by many to offer many healing benefits including pain relief and an anti-inflammatory. You might find relief from chronic pain, migraines, arthritis, psoriasis, or many other inflammatory ailments.

Please Note: DESUAR Spa, or any of its representatives, are not affiliated with nor do they endorse this product. The FDA has not evaluated these statements. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

CBD MASSAGE

CBD Oil can be incorporated into any massage of any length. The CBD oil can be used in targeted areas of concern for the individual client or mixed with lotion for use across the entire body. It has a huge list of wellness benefits from pain relief to reducing anxiety and stress.  Pair this with deep tissue massage techniques and you have a double-whammy of relief from muscle tension and stress. A CBD Massage is deeply relaxing, designed to melt tension away and promote a calming effect, soothing inflammation and chronic pain.

PHYSICAL BENEFITS

CBD has many physical benefits you can reap by having it massaged into your skin. It helps to alleviate inflammation, reduce pain, improve blood pressure, improve the health and appearance of the skin, aid in muscle recovery, and much more. Massage therapy also offers a plethora of benefits to your physical health, including speeding up muscle recovery, reducing tension in the fascia and soft tissue, reducing pain, relieving headaches, improving digestion, and improving the overall quality of sleep.

By combining the many benefits of CBD and massage, you can help reduce unwanted symptoms like pain or inflammation while increasing overall physical health and well-being.

MENTAL HEALTH BENEFITS

Both CBD and massage are individually used to alleviate stress and reduce anxiety. Both are excellent ways to naturally improve your mental health, calm your mind, and banish the stresses you’re dealing with. Combining the two increases the effectiveness of each treatment and can help you relax your mind and body beyond what you can achieve on your own. If you find yourself in need of something to help you unwind and reduce stress levels, CBD massage is a perfect choice. As either a one-time pampering treatment or a regular part of your self-care routine, CBD massage is also an excellent choice for people who suffer from sleep disorders. Practicing self-care in the form of CBD massage is a great way to invest in your overall health and happiness.

How BUBBLE BUSTER CELLULITE LIPO MASSAGE works?

Cellulite is one of the most common cosmetic problems that affect almost 90 percent of women globally. Know how to get rid of this here.

Could Qwo, The New FDA-Approved Injection, Be The Cure For Cellulite?

All body types and sizes can develop cellulite. Chances are, even you who are reading this have cellulite. That’s because cellulite affects 90% of women and 10% of men, according to Scientific American. The amount of cellulite you have and how noticeable it is can be based on your genes, body fat percentage, and age. The thickness of your skin also affects the appearance of cellulite. However, the distribution of fat can be more visible in women than in men. The collagen fibers between the skin and muscle separate the underlying fat into multiple pockets. This exposes the rippled connective tissues underneath.

CAUSES OF CELLULITE

A decrease in estrogen levels may trigger cellulite development by restricting blood flow to the connective tissues under the skin. This, in turn, means that less oxygen is supplied to the area. A decrease in this hormone also leads to enlarged fat cells. In fact, hormones like estrogen, insulin, noradrenaline, thyroid hormones and prolactin are all a part of the cellulite production process. Another reason could be ageing. You skin loses its elasticity and becomes thin as you age. This induces cellulite formation. Slow metabolism, poor diet, unhealthy lifestyle, genetics, pregnancy and weight gain are other factors responsible for this condition.

What is Age Rewind Microcurrent Facial?

DESUAR Spa | Day Spa Services in Downtown Los Angeles

Growing Old is Inevitable, but growing older with grace is a choice.

Wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process. As we age, our skin tends to loose its elasticity and sag. While ageing is inevitable, feeling good and looking good is also certain! Take your skin and facial muscles on a journey toward perfection and beauty with Microcurrent, your 5-minute facial lift.

Microcurrent technology is one of the hottest things in the anti-aging industry today. Widely known as the nonsurgical face-lift, a microcurrent facial diminishes signs of aging, improves your face contour, and brightens your complexion. As its name suggests, it makes use of low-voltage electrical current to stimulate collagen and elastin production in your skin. It also repairs damaged tissues and re-educates the facial muscles to become firmer and tighter. It is a cosmetic treatment where a person uses a special handheld device to deliver tiny currents of electricity to the face. These microcurrents stimulate the skin and muscles with the aim of improving a person’s appearance.

Microcurrent therapy, a form of electrotherapy, was then introduced to the United States in the late 1970s by Chinese physician Dr. Thomas Wing. He used microcurrent in an attempt to treat Bell’s palsy, a condition that paralyzes the facial muscles on one side of the face. While no evidence proved that microcurrent therapy was effective in treating this facial condition, Dr. Wing did discover other skin benefits in his patients such as a smoother skin tone and a younger-looking visage.

This is why microcurrent facials have been widely recommended by aestheticians and facialists to reduce and delay visible signs of aging. Given that the low-voltage current mimics your body’s natural electrical current, it’s a safe yet effective anti-aging treatment.

Microcurrent devices have two electrodes on one end, which deliver the current of electricity. This does not involve any surgery. A person remains awake throughout the treatment and can continue their usual activities immediately.

Benefits of Microcurrent Facial:

Microcurrent Facial Near Me on Sale, 60% OFF | www.ingeniovirtual.com

  • Limited scientific research suggests that microcurrent treatments may help to lift and tighten the muscles in the area and stimulate collagen and elastin, helping your skin look smoother, brighter and more rejuvenated.
  • Electrical stimulation can improve blood flow to the skin. This may improve the health of skin cells, make the skin look healthier, or increase plumpness.
  • It Re-Trains the Facial Muscles for Improved Facial Contour. By increasing ATP levels within your body, a microcurrent facial helps to re-energize your facial muscles to improve muscle tone. Think of it as a form of “face gym” to get firmer facial muscles. As such, you get to enjoy improved facial contouring such as reduced skin sagging and a more defined jawline after the treatment.
  • It Boosts Blood Circulation to the Face While Reducing Facial Puffiness. Besides enhancing collagen production and muscle tone, microcurrent facials also increase blood circulation to the face. At the cellular level, this improves nutrient and oxygen supply that results in a more radiant and healthier complexion. 
  • It Gives Immediate Results With a Cumulative Effect
    But why are microcurrent facials touted as the “5-Minute Face-Lift”? The answer lies in the immediate results experienced right after the procedure is done. Expect more defined cheekbones and jawlines, reduced forehead lines and eye wrinkles, and a glowing complexion, all without any downtime.
    One thing to note though is that these benefits have a cumulative effect. In other words, facial improvements are more pronounced and longer-lasting with regular treatments. To maintain the anti-aging benefits, schedule a follow-up session every few weeks as recommended by your aesthetician.
  • It Is Relatively Painless
    Unlike other forms of anti-aging treatments such as Botox or fillers, microcurrent facials are non-invasive and non-surgical. As such, you don’t have to worry about needles or knives touching your skin.

Are microcurrent facials safe?

Research from 2021 states that microcurrent treatments are “relatively safe” and have few side effects.

Microcurrents are not strong enough to cause injury, so when a person uses these devices correctly, they should not hurt or cause skin damage. However, some people should not have microcurrent facials. This includes people with:

  • Pregnancy
  • Active acne or other inflammatory skin conditions
  • Heart issues, e.g. have a pacemaker in your body
  • Had Botox or fillers two weeks before a microcurrent facial
  • Have metal implants in your face

Another potential risk comes from unregulated or untested microcurrent devices. When trying a microcurrent facial at home, a person should always use a device approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Alternatively, people should seek treatment from a licensed professional.

How Is  Microcurrent Facial Done?

There are two ways to get a microcurrent facial done — professional or at-home treatments.

Professional Treatment

For professional treatments, your aesthetician will first apply a thin layer of conductive gel on your face. He or she will then use two hand-held prongs that are attached to a microcurrent machine to deliver low-level electrical current to your skin.

DESUAR Spa, recommends 10 treatments for long lasting results and cumulative benefits for $300 ( 80 mins session).

At-Home Treatment

The other option is to use at-home microcurrent devices to enjoy this facial treatment in the comfort of your own home. Make sure these at-home gadgets come with conductive gel too. These devices are also cheaper when compared to a professional microcurrent facial — they range from $200-$500 for an at-home treatment whenever you want.

However, the downside is that at-home microcurrent devices are less powerful than the professional-grade microcurrent machines used in spas. As such, the benefits may not be as potent or as long-lasting when you opt for at-home treatment.

What to Do After Your Treatment to Get the Best Results

To get the best results from this facial treatment, make sure to wear sunscreen to protect your skin against harmful UV rays if you aren’t already doing so. As a general rule, applying SPF 30 and above should be an integral step in your daily skincare routine but more so after a microcurrent facial.

At the same time, avoid activities that will cause collagen breakdown and undo the beneficial effects of your microcurrent facial. Some examples are smoking and suntanning, which destroy your skin’s collagen levels and trigger premature skin aging.

Even though microcurrent facials can be on the pricey side, think of them as a long-term investment for younger-looking skin.

Why is Microdermabrasion popular?

DESUAR Spa | Day Spa Services in Downtown Los Angeles

Why is Microdermabrasion so popular?

Photo courtesy of Google

Known to be the most popular skin clinic and beauty salon staples, those that spent some time in the aesthetic skin care industry will agree that microdermabrasion is really a facial superstar.

This treatment has always been a popular treatment on the high street since it gained some traction in the 1990s, and has remained as popular as ever. Various different dermabrasion treatments have appeared over the course of time. As far back as 1500BC Egyptian physicians would use a type of sandpaper to abrase the top layer of the skin to remove scars.

Essentially, there are two main components of microdermabrasion: peeling and cleansing. The abrasive material painlessly buffs away dead skin cells and encourages healthier skin to grow in its place. The suction helps to remove dirt and debris from the surface of the skin and within the pores. You don’t need to do much to prepare for microdermabrasion, but your dermatologist can help you determine whether the process is right for you and offer advice on preparation. If you scar easily or are prone to cold sores, microdermabrasion might not be for you. Depending on your needs, a session can last anywhere from ten minutes to over an hour. Your skin might look red or flaky following a microdermabrasion session, but thankfully that doesn’t last more than a few days in the most extreme cases. Results are visible not long after a session, as your skin is very quick to repair and grow following an abrasive treatment.

The Microdermabrasion Machine

The first microdermabrasion machine was invented in Italy in 1985 by two Doctors, Mattioli and Brutto. These rose to popularity through the 1990s and became commonplace in skin clinics throughout the early 2000s.

These microdermabrasion machines collected the abraded skin and siphoned it into a container instead of it be aerosolized, which could cause infection to the practitioner.

Microdermabrasion Machine | HydroLUX for sale | MedicalSearch AustraliaThe machine have become very easily accessible for both professionals and those wishing to treat themselves at home. The professional microdermabrasion machines are also more affordable than other more advanced treatments such as radio frequency and photo rejuvenation. These often means it’s a go to first machine to buy for skin businesses.

The rise in the availability of home care machines does come with some potential problems, however.

There are currently no manufacturing performance standards that have been set for microdermabrasion machines. The FDA has classified that microdermabrasion machines are a class 1 medical device. This means machines don’t need clinical efficiency to be sold.

Benefits of Microdermabrasion

The reason for the popularity of microdermabrasion is that it is a feel-good treatment. It helps improve many skin problem areas with minimal downtime and works on all skin types and skin colors. You can feel it doing something, you can see the exfoliated skin, your skin appears smoother and brighter. It is most often performed on the face but can be performed on upper thighs, buttocks, abdomen and hips. Prior to treatment, a consultation should be done with a dermatologist to go over your skin type and how the procedure will work. As you prepare for treatment after the consult, avoid sunburns, do not wax or shave the treatment area, and on the day of treatment, make sure all makeup is removed. Once you are prepared, treatment can begin.

1. TREATS THE SIGNS OF AGING

Microdermabrasion is an excellent treatment for wrinkles, fine lines and other signs of aging. It allows more collagen and hyaluronic acid to be produced. In turn, skin following a microdermabrasion session is smoother and healthier. Another common change that aging skin undergoes is the appearance of discolored patches of skin or age spots. Microdermabrasion can help to treat these and even out skin tone by eliminating the melanocytes responsible for the darker tones. Your self-esteem might see a significant boost following a microdermabrasion treatment.

2. TREATS ACNE

Microdermabrasion is effective at treating facial and body acne in the short term, drastically reducing the severity and duration of a breakout. The main cause of acne is excess levels of sebum, or oil in the skin. Microdermabrasion cleanses existing oil and inhibits future overproduction by removing the layer of skin most responsible for producing oil. In a much cleaner, less oily environment, new skin is much healthier and less prone to acne.

3. IT IS SAFE

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive, superficial peeling therapy. It acts as a manual and chemical exfoliant. During the procedure, a technician uses a minimally abrasive instrument to remove dead skin cells and promote growth of fresh skin cells. Microdermabrasion has been FDA-approved since 1996 and is widely practiced by cosmetic dermatologists and aestheticians.

4. RESULTS ARE QUICK AND LONG LASTING

If dull, tired-looking skin is plaguing you, a microdermabrasion treatment might be just what you’re looking for. The procedure brightens skin within a few hours to a few days post-treatment. You can typically expect to see results from just one treatment, though you might opt for ongoing sessions to keep skin looking refreshed and revived. While not guaranteed, results can often last up to a year.

5. IT IS FASTER, EASIER AND MORE AFFORDABLE THAN OTHER TREATMENTS

Microdermabrasion is quick and convenient, typically lasting no more than 30 minutes. The procedure itself is virtually painless and while some mild redness and irritation might occur immediately following treatment, it subsides within a few days at most.

Compared to other skin resurfacing treatments, microdermabrasion is much more cost-effective and requires minimal downtime. You can opt to get a microdermabrasion treatment on its own or as an add-on service during another type of facial treatment. It’s best to consult with a specialist who can make recommendations depending on your specific concern and skin type.

Remember to always book your microdermabrasion treatments at a dermatology and cosmetic center. At-home treatments are not as effective and can damage the skin. A licensed dermatologist will ensure that this treatment is right for you and perform the treatment safely. Your dermatologist can answer your questions about microdermabrasion and other exfoliating therapies at a consultation appointment.

Our skin is daily exposed to harsh environmental toxins, irritants, and sun damage. This can cause the top layer of your skin to appear dull, and it can make you look aged.

Among the many treatments we have on the market, there is this one who is making a buzz by providing greater results against peach fuzz and considered to be the best exfoliant for all- The Dermaplaning. This is also one of the most sought after treatment at DESUAR Spa- the haven that provides quality treatment to the many people who wanted to look good and feel great of themselves.

But what is a Dermaplane and what it does to your skin?

Dermaplaning is a skin treatment that exfoliates your skin and skim off dirt and vellus hair, better known as “peach fuzz.” It’s also called microplaning or blading. It aims to make your skin’s surface smooth, youthful, and radiant. This treatment claims to remove deep scarring from acne and uneven pockmarks on your skin.

It’s different from dermabrasion, where an aesthetician or doctor uses a high-speed, rotating brush to exfoliate the skin. With dermaplaning, they use a scalpel or a tool called a dermatome. The doctor or aesthetician moves the dermatome, which looks like an electric razor, back and forth to scrape off the top layer of dead skin.

If you look at the tool used for dermaplaning treatments, you may notice it looks like a razor you would use on your body hair.

The basic concept of dermaplaning is the same as shaving. By aiming a sterile blade at a 45-degree angle and dragging it slowly across your skin, you remove dead cells, scar tissue, and other debris that may be making your skin’s surface look uneven.

Benefits of Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning Facial Is So Much More Than Shaving Your Face

According to WebMD, The exfoliation and hair removal can leave your skin brighter and smoother. The treatment may soften fine lines and wrinkles and ease hyperpigmentation, or uneven skin tone. It’s also used to treat deep acne scars. How well it works really depends on your skin type, tone, and medical history.

Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation meant to be performed primarily on the face. Also known as leveling the skin or blading, it involves the use of a sterile surgical blade, known as a dermatome, that gently scrapes away the top layer of problem skin. The dermatome is held against taut skin at a 45-degree angle and stroked in a manner similar to shaving.

This method removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells, leaving the skin smooth and supple.

Dermaplaning is usually only performed on the face and generally excludes any blading of the nose, eye lids, neck, or chest. It is recommended that the procedure be done every 3 to 4 weeks (or once a month), which coincides with a normal skin cycle of approximately 30 days.

Dermaplaning is wonderful for exfoliating the skin and for those that have peach fuzz on their face. It removes this along with dead skin cells, resulting in healthier looking skin. This treatment is great for someone who has sensitive skin or facial hair that does not respond to laser hair removal. Removal of this outer layer of dead skin cells and fine hair enhances the penetration and speed of your personal skin care regimen. It is great for priming the skin for a Chemical Peel.

After the treatment, your make up will go on better and your skin will be very smooth. This is a no downtime procedure.

Risks and Side Effects

Dermaplaning is a low-risk procedure. Side effects may include slight redness in your face in the hours after getting the treatment. Some people develop whiteheads on their skin in the day or two after dermaplaning.

Infection and scarring are rare after dermaplaning, but they do occur. If you develop a scar from dermaplaning, your doctor may need to treat the scar tissue with a steroid injection to soften the scar tissue.

Another possible side effect is a patchy skin pigment in the area where you have the procedure, which may decrease or disappear as time goes on.

Short-term side effects may include:

  • Red and swollen skin from the scraping
  • Soreness
  • A burning or tingling sensation for about 48 hours after the procedure
Dermaplaning isn’t recommended if you have inflammatory skin conditions such as:

Where Can You Get It?

It’s best to go to a licensed aesthetician or doctor in DESUAR Spa if you’re thinking about trying dermaplaning.

Do-it-yourself kits and tools are available online and at your local drugstore. But because you’re using a very sharp blade, you may cut your skin when you scrape it. This can lead to infection or other problems.

Schedule an appointment with DESUAR Spa if you’re concerned about your skin because it feels great to look good.

Hydrafacial: The Future of Skin Health

Do you want to achieve the best skin of your life?

Is your skin dull and lackluster or bright and glowing?

Are you plagued by blackheads, blocked pores, acne, or dry skin?

How visible are your pores? Are they filled with dirt and debris?

No need to book separate facials for this — one HydraFacial should do the trick! Hailed as a “one-stop shop” for rejuvenating your skin, this non-invasive treatment has skyrocketed in popularity in recent years.

According to hundreds of Skin Health experts, hydration is the single most important factor in healthy skin. Dryness, scaly skin, flakes or peeling, and even tight-feeling skin can indicate a lack of hydration.

Known for its three-step process, the HydraFacial works to deep-clean, exfoliate and hydrate your skin. This professional procedure may help treat a variety of skin conditions, such as:

  • Oily, acne-prone skin
  • Dry skin
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Sun damage
  • Age spots
  • Blackheads
  • Enlarged and clogged pores

Due to the deep exfoliation that cleans your pores, removes debris, and allows better penetration of face serums tailored to your skin type, the HydraFacial is said to help improve overall skin texture, tone, and appearance.

It is a patented skin treatment available in DESUAR Spa. It’s also called “hydradermabrasion” because it involves microdermabrasion-like exfoliation paired with hydrating serums.

This technology relies on a suction-based device to cleanse and remove dirt and debris from your pores. This same device refills your pores with hydrating peptides and antioxidants, leaving you with an instant glow. Post-treatment, you can actually see all the gunk that’s been flushed from your pores – something many clients enjoy.

Hydrafacial just got even better with  Syndeo.
