Birthdays, change of seasons, life events and general over all skin care take me in for a skin care consult at least twice a year. I am open to new treatments and ideas, but I prefer to have a plan of attack. What should I be doing for the next 12 months, or 2 years to achieve the skin care goals I have? How will my active outdoor lifestyle affect my decisions? What about the wedding (not mine) I am in this April? What do I do about these (new) fine lines and uneven skin tone?
Of course, a good skin care regime which includes a true Sun Protection is paramount to my overall goal of maintaining healthy, beautiful skin. We have now added a series of Microdermabrasion to my skin care treatments. To maintain the result of vibrant, healthy skin at 46 I am using the Obagi Skin Care Line and my Clarisonic. Colorescience Sunforgettable is my sun protection while I ski, run and as it gets warmer, golf, or just drive my kids to all of their events!
Research demonstrates that Microdermabrasion treatments are effective exfoliant treatments in stimulating cell renewal and rejuvenation of aging skin. The Microderm facial uses a "sandblasting" technique to clean away the outermost layer of old dead skin cells. Although the treatment was a bit noisy, I experienced very little discomfort. My skin felt slightly warm, and tight for the first 24 hours, but I had the treatment at lunch and went right back to work!
A seres of Microderm treatments may be as effective as more invasive, more costly treatments. I have had one and will be going thru a series of about 6 to achieve my goals of improving my skin tone and diminishing some of the fine lines around cheeks and eyes. Microderm treatments range from about 5 to 10 treatments depending on your skin care goals.
Take a look in the mirror tonight, and really take stock of your skin. Do you have fine lines around your eyes? Is your skin evenly toned or ruddy? Do you have pimples or age and sun spots? Now may be the time for you to talk with your Skin Care Specialist about Microdermabrasion.
