Clear Skin 101

rhonda-allison-jpeg2ACNE

Acne occurs when dead skin cells clog the skin’s sebaceous glands, often contributing to increased breakouts, redness and oiliness. We recommend treatments and products that address this problem through detoxification and by targeting inflammation and oil production.

Usually the result of hormonal activity, stress and/or poor dietary habits, acne occurs when dead skin cells aren’t properly shed and clog the skin’s sebaceous glands (natural oil-producing glands). Characterized by excessive blemishing, redness and/or oiliness, acne often first appears during adolescence, yet can continue and reappear later in life. In addition to traditional treatments and antibiotics—which can be toxic to the system—harsh chemical ingredients like sodium lauryl sulfate and benzoyl peroxide can worsen this condition and spark rebound breakouts. Carol Robinson, lead Aesthetician, addresses this concern with soothing, natural ingredients designed to eliminate toxins and target inflammation and excess oil production.

Anti-Aging Protection

reflect4Sunblock vs Sunscreen!

There is a difference between sunblock and sunscreen. Sunblock, true to it’s name, reflects the sun’s rays, thereby blocking them from reaching your skin. Sunscreen absorbs rather than reflects ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

Sheild Your Skin From What Ages It.

REFLECT SPF30, by Cosmedix  is an exceptional choice.  Spray on convenience, natural (great for kids too), non-irritating, non-greasy, fragrance free sunblock that leaves a luminous glow!

We love it, and you will too!

Get Your Skin into Shape

Remember how your mother used to warn you, “if you keep making that face, it will freeze that way?” It ends up, she was right. Only rather than a mischievous grimace from our childhood, it is the expressions we make everyday that end up permanently etched in our complexions.

As we age, our skin loses elasticity, making it harder to return to its original shape after years of smiling, laughing and crying. Fortunately, there are some simple steps you can take to avoid a permanent record of life’s ups and downs. By getting your skin in shape, you can easily prevent many signs of premature aging and even correct some that have already begun. Read on for tips and tricks on how to tone, tighten up and take years off your look.
Drink More Water

Proper hydration is an essential part of any workout, and skin fitness is no exception. Aside from moisturizing the skin from within, drinking eight to ten glasses of water a day will also help flush toxins and increase circulation and elasticity, leaving skin supple, clear and glowing.

Start Fresh

Just as stretching prepares your body for a jog, cleansing prepares skin for your regimen. That is why it is important to look for a cleanser that not only washes away dirt and impurities, but also maintains the skin’s delicate pH and moisture balances. Irritant-free and formulated for optimal ingredient communication, chirally correct cleansers deep clean without stripping away the skin’s natural oils, so you can begin your regimen with a truly clean slate.
Apply Before You Dry

Like a sponge, your skin absorbs products best when it is already damp. To make the most of your topical hydrator, apply directly after cleansing, when skin is still damp (not drenched) and pores are open. This traps in moisture, allowing the ingredients to work more effectively and for a longer duration.
Be Sun Smart

The leading cause of premature aging (wrinkles, lines, discoloration, etc.) is overexposure to harmful UV rays. While it is impossible to avoid sun exposure completely, regularly applying a moisturizer with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 15 or higher can easily offset potential damage and nourish the skin with essential nutrients.
Be Firm

The best way to tackle stubborn wrinkles and thinning, sagging skin is to target weakened elasticity at its source. By using products designed to firm and tighten problem areas (such as around the forehead, mouth and eyes), we can rebuild skin definition and smooth over the signs of premature aging.
Take Your Vitamins

While most of us are aware of the internal benefits of a daily multi-vitamin, the external benefits on the skin are just as dramatic and well-documented. As our barrier from the elements and often the last stop for toxins exiting the body, the skin is a reflection of our overall health. By taking a skin-specific multivitamin, you can improve your outward health and appearance by fostering a healthy environment within and ensuring that skin is as well-nourished as the rest of your body.

M&Ms. The secret anti-aging weapon.

bigstockphoto_colorful_candies_1833986Yes. M&Ms !

A brilliant match: microdermabrasion and microcurrent, paired to create what the experts identify as the best anti-aging facial treatment in the industry!

We begin with microdermabrasion of the face and neck to resurface the skin. This involves spraying a fine stream of crystals over the surface of the skin, while vacuuming away used crystals and skin debris.  The result: a fresh, glowing countenance. Then microcurrent technology lifts, plumps and re-educates face and neck muscles at a cellular level, while stimulating collagen, elastin, and ATP production.

Truly amazing results!

It’s a beautiful day at GoodSkin LA!

bigstockphoto_pretty_girl_showing_something_1301555Microcurrent Magic! When microcurrent was featured on Oprah, there was no doubt that this scientifically proven, non-invasive,  aesthetic treatment had made it’s way to the top shelf in the anti-aging arsenal.  With our state-of-the-art Bio~Therapeutic system, sagging neck and facial muscles are retrained to lift and tighten, while collagen, elastin and ATP are stimulated to give your skin that glow from within.

Wow. How? To understand how it works is to realize that humans, in effect, are electrically charged beings.  Microcurrent treatments emit subtle electrical frequencies that mimic the body’s own electrical signals, sending messages to the musculature and cells in the skin, thereby increasing the amount of ATP that is produced.  ATP is referred to as the “current of life” as it is literally the energy transfer or power source that makes life itself possible in every living organism.  Your skin requires massive amounts of ATP to thrive, regenerate and renew itself.  Moreover, facial muscles are re-educated with an assertive series of sculpting and contouring movements designed to lengthen or shorten muscles on demand, addressing the expression aging of contracted muscles, and traditional aging of atrophied muscles.

The Results: Visibly lifted, sculpted, firmed and toned face and neck muscles, along with hydrated, plump and gloriously glowing skin!  Pair this with microbermabrasion and you have  what industry insiders consider the best anti-aging treatment available on the market today!
