Best answer:

Answer by Catherine
I have been a fan of Obagi Skin Care since it came out to the general public. It has worked great, and yes, it is hard to find. I found a few sites that offer it, but all were very expensive or not worth it. I finally found a site that offered really good quality Obagi and anti-aging products, so it is the only site I use anymore The site is:http://www.skinproductsonline.com/There main page says:Thousands of skin care products and skin care – now specializing in obagi skin care! Skin Products Online also offers wrinkle creams, anti aging skin care, body scrubs, lotions, body firming lotions, and organic skin care.

Not to forget all you can do to your clambering by eating the right foods.

Chemicals in cosmetics and body care products

Did you know that your daily beauty and body care products could well damage your kidneys, affect your nervous system, and even cause cancer – in worst cases they may kill you?  See links to articles about chemicals in cosmetics and body care products at the bottom of this article.

A healthy lifestyle combined with natural organic top skin care products is the best choice for your total health and your skin.

What should we require of a top skin care product?

It should rebuild clamber structure and create more collagenReverse damage from stress and exposure to daily pollutionMinimizes stress lines, wrinkles and imperfectionsRebuilds younger-looking, firmer skinDiminishes wrinkles with day-to-day useRepairs cellular DNA, increase metabolism for clear, ageless skin

What ingredients should we look for in anti aging top skin care products?

Aloe Vera – The Aloe Vera plant (also called Aloe barbadensis) is unique among plants for its importance in natural skin care. Aloe Vera contains burn healing effects, anti-inflammatory properties, and scar reducing properties. Aloe Vera is also acting as a storehouse for vital enzymes, vitamins, proteins and minerals that support skin functions. Aloe Vera is also very effective at toning and firming the skin.

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein – Is a film-forming agent which retains water, promotes healing processes and tightens skin. It’s a pure, botanical ingredient that creates a flexible strengthening network on the skin’s surface which produces an instant and long-lasting tightening effect. This protein produces skin that looks and feels younger and revitalized.

Arnica Extract – Antiseptic, astringent, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-coagulant, circulation stimulating, healing, and stimulating to the deep cellular levels of skin that can help to counteract the effects of aging at a deep synthesis level.

Barley Extract – is an excellent source of antioxidant. It also increases micro-circulation and drainage.

Some other important anti aging ingredients in skin and body care products:

Lecithin, Olive-leaves, Sweet almond, Argan oil, Passion fruit seed oil, Rice Bran oil, Acai pulp oil, Babassu seed oil, Sea buckthorn berry oil, Lonicera, Honeysuckle flower extract,  Cocoa butter, Panthenol, vitamin B-5, vitamin C, Jojoba oil (natural vitamin E), extract from orange, Bergamot flowers and Jasmine flowers. Rose and Geranium oil, Reserveratol, Astaxanthin, Q10

No top skin care products have all these ingredients but they should have a few of them.

The best anti-aging foods:

It is important to remember that your diet also has a big impact on how your skin retains moisture, handles irritation, and ages? A skin cell lives about a month. So each and every day, your body is busy making new cells to replace those that have died off, and how healthy those new cells are is directly determined by how well you’ve been eating. I will only list a few here, actually most organic raw fruits and vegetables are good for you so attempt to vary.

Carrots – This crunchy snack is loaded with vitamin A, which helps balance the pH of your skin’s surface, making it just acidic enough to fend off harmful bacteria. Use both raw and cooked.Berries- High-antioxidant content of blackberries, blueberries and strawberries yield infinite healthy-skin benefits.Artichokes, beans, prunes and pecans – These are also high in antioxidants and good for your skinSalmon, Walnuts, and Flax Seed – The mutual healthy-skin ingredients in these foods are essential fatty acids. They block harmful irritants and act as the passageway for nutrients coming in and out and for waste products to get in and out of the cell. The stronger that barrier is, the better your skin cells hold moisture.Healthy Oils – Flax seed, Hemp, Olive Oil, Evening Primrose oil. They should be cold pressed, extra virgin. These oils Keep skin lubricated and looking and feeling healthier.  Avocado is also a very good source of essential oils.Whole Wheat Brazil Nuts and dates – are rich in the mineral selenium, which play a key role in the health of skin cells. In fact, studies show that even skin damaged by the sun may suffer fewer consequences if selenium levels are high. Amaranth, Barley, Brazil Nuts, Buckwheat, Cashews, Coconut, Rye, Asparagus, Brussels sprouts, French Beans and dates are other good sources of selenium.Green Tea – The skin-health assets in this drink are matchless. It has anti-inflammatory properties, protects the cell membrane, and may even reduce the risk of some cancers.Almonds, Avocado and Sunflower Seeds – These seeds are a natural source of vitamin E. No antioxidants are better at slowing down the aged of skin cells. Avocado also contains glutathione, copper, beta-sisterol and other compounds mired in the natural detoxification process.Black Grapes – contains reserveratrol that is a very strong antioxidant.  Red wine is a good source of reserveratrol but as alcohol is bad for your skin and health it’s better to eat grapes. Watermelon – Packed with detox nutrients and water, watermelon is also very rich in lycopene, an antioxidant that boost your skin resistance to sun damage.Red bell peppers – the unique combination of vitamins A, C and E, three of the most potent skin protecting vitamins, makes red bell peppers and ideal food for a healthy glow.  Also very important to the natural detoxification process.

The benefits of a healthy lifestyle using organic top skin care products and a healthy diet are amazing. All the foods mentioned above are not only good for your clamber, they are also good for your total health – preventing diseases and helping you stay healthier and younger.

My best advice in a few words when it comes to reversing the aging process is:

Avoid stress,Get enough “beauty” sleep – great for your overall health and a necessity to stay young.Change to a whole-food, plant based diet (organic healthy fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds beans, legumes and oils.Drink water - full hydration is identify to a healthy looking skin, and there’s nothing better than pure, clean water to quench your body’s thirst.Stay out in fresh air but protect your skin against the sun. Use only certified organic top skin care products (chemicals not only damage your skin but are also a danger for your health).Limit or reduce the use of refined sugar and alcohol as it is bad for your skin and your health.

Photofacial skin care treatments, also called IPL, short for Intense Pulsed Light, are very effective, no down time, safe methods for removing pigment, or brown spots, and excess or broken blood vessels from the facial skin. Browns spots, broken blood vessels around the nose, chin and cheeks are classic signs of sun damage and aging of the facial skin. Brown spots, often called age spots are caused by pigment that is produced by the skin to protect the skin from the harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays of the sun. New blood vessels grow into the skin in response to skin injury, first to wash out damaged skin debris and later to bring in healing factors. As our skin ages, the brown spots and broken blood vessels are left behind on the skin after the inflammation or skin injury has passed. These pigmented and red vascular spots create an aged variegated appearance to the facial skin which is called dyschromia, and is a sign of facial aging. Photofacial skin care treatments are the treatment of choice for benign facial skin pigmentation, age spots, brown spots and broken blood vessels and small red spots called telangiectasia on the face. Photofacial treatments are now preferred over laser treatments for these specific pigment and vascular lesions.

What Causes Age Spots, Sun Spots, Red Blotches and Broken Blood Vessels on the Face Neck and Décolletage?

Browns spots and broken blood vessels around the nose, chin, cheeks, neck, hands and Décolletage are classic signs of sun damage and aging of the skin. Brown spots, often called age spots are caused by pigment that is produced by the skin to protect the skin from the harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays of the sun. New blood vessels grow into the skin in response to skin injury by the sun. This process of new blood vessel growth is called inflammation.

The new blood vessels bring blood into the facial skin first to wash out damaged skin cell debris and later to bring in skin healing factors.

As our skin ages, the brown spots and broken blood vessels are left behind on the skin after the inflammation or skin injury has passed. These pigmented and red vascular spots create an aged variegated appearance to the facial skin which is called dyschromia, which is a sign of facial aging.

Photofacial skin care treatments or IPL treatments are the non-surgical anti-aging skin care treatment of choice for benign facial skin pigmentation, age spots, brown spots and broken blood vessels, the small red spots called telangiectasia, on the face, hands, neck and Décolletage. Photofacial treatments are now preferred over laser treatments for these specific pigment and vascular lesions. Results of photofacial non-surgical anti-aging skin care treatments can be excellent–see before and after pictures of photofacial treatments of neck and decolletage below:

How Do Photofacial or Intense Pulsed Light Non-surgical anti-aging Skin Care Treatments Work?

Photofacial or IPL anti-aging skin care treatments use a bright flash of visible light, like the light of a camera flash to remove pigment and blood vessels non-surgically from the skin. This pulsed or flashed light is very different from a laser and in most instances, less powerful and less dangerous that laser light.

I use a Photofacial IPL machine called the LuxGreen IPL made by Palomar Medical Laser Company in Burlington, Massachusetts. Palomar Medical is the premier manufacturer of Aesthetic Laser and Light therapy machines in the world. The LuxGreen Photofacial is the best Photofacial technology I have ever used. The LuxGreen Photofacial IPL machine is very effective and is the most comfortable for you the patient of any IPL device available.

Photofacial skin rejuvenation works by passing a flash of bright light through a filter that only allows a specific color of light in the flash to pass through the filter and hit the skin. In the case of the LuxGreen Photofacial, only light with a wavelength of 550nm (nm=nanometers or one millionth of a meter and is the measure of the green light wavelength in the visible light spectrum) to pass through the IPL filter and hit the skin.

The LuxGreen IPL 550nm light is selectively absorbed or taken up by the brown pigment in an age spot or the dark reddish brown color of blood in a blood vessel. When the Photofacial light energy is absorbed by the pigment or blood vessel, the heat from the Photofacial or IPL light destroys the pigment or blood vessel by heating it. Results can be excellent–see before and after picture of photofacial anti-aging skin care treatment of face below:

This process is called Target Specific Photothermolysis. A specific target, that is a color, is heated (thermo) with a light (photo) beam and dissolved or destroyed (lysis).

Using color filters placed in front of the Intense Pulsed Light beam, a wide variety of colors can be allowed through to treat many different skin conditions including hair removal (LuxRed), acne (LuxViolet), and others.

What Will My Skin Look Like Immediately After a Photofacial Skin Care Treatment?

Unlike lasers, which can cause the skin to peel and possibly leave scars, the Lux Green IPL treatments are very gentle on the skin. The pigment in the brown spot or age spot will darken very slightly, and the treated blood vessel will also darken a bit. However the skin will be intact. The treated areas may also be slightly pink for a few hours.

We place ice or a cool pack on the treated area immediately and this also may make the skin pink. However, the pinkness may be covered with makeup immediately. You may return to work. And your skin will be nearly normal the next day.

Does An Intense Pulsed Light Skin Care Treatment Hurt?

There is minimal discomfort during an IPL care treatment. Anesthesia or numbing medicine is not required. When the IPL flash hits the skin you will feel a small snap or sting, but this is easily tolerated by all of my patients.

How Many IPL Skin Care Treatments will I Need?

Usually 3 IPL skin care treatments are required spaced 4-5 weeks apart for the best results. Multiple treatments are the price for gentle treatments that are not painful and do not injure the skin.

Technically enough power can be used to remove the brown spot or blood vessel in one treatment, but this energy level would be painful, blister the skin and possibly leave a scar. This is what happened with old time laser treatments, and the new IPL is designed to remove pigment and blood vessels painlessly and with no trace or scar left behind. To accomplish this we need to stage the removal in 2-3 treatments 4-5 weeks apart. The results are well worth the wait.

How Soon after My Intense Pulsed Light Skin Care Treatment Will I See a Result?

Generally you will see the results of your IPL skin care treatment at 4-5 weeks. The brown spot will be lighter or gone and the red spot or blood vessel will be much smaller. Some patients with thin skin and very light pigment or small broken blood vessels will see complete removal after one treatment.

However most people see definite improvement 5 weeks after the IPL treatment and require 2 more treatments for complete removal.


Who Should I Consult For My Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Skin Care Treatment?

The best IPL machines are found in a physician’s office. Less powerful IPL machines are allowed to be used in Spas, but results are not as effective with these downgraded machines. In my experience patients do not get the results that they want in a spa, and often come to my practice for repeat treatments with the LuxGreen IPL after having already spent money for IPL in a spa.

The other benefit of having your IPL treatment in a physician’s office is that you will be examined by a doctor who can properly diagnose your skin condition. Some brown lesions are dangerous and require medical evaluation and should not be treated with Intense Pulsed Light. If you have Rosacea or larger blood vessels on your face, a different therapy is required. These are medical treatments and should be done in a doctor’s office. Your skin will be evaluated for more serious skin conditions, and you will receive more effective Intense Pulsed Light skin care treatments.

How Do I Find a Good Doctor to Do My Intense Pulsed Light Skin Care Treatment?

Light based and laser non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatments are best done by a doctor who is well trained and specializes in anti-aging skin treatments. Your safest bet is to seek consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist who has experience in laser and light based therapies such as Intense Pulsed Light.

I am of course prejudiced because I am a board certified plastic surgeon. However, a plastic surgeon is trained and capable of providing the full range of non-surgical and surgical skin anti-aging procedures and can customize your skin treatments to your unique face. Doctors who cannot provide all treatments are tempted to “fit your unique face” into the particular skin treatment they offer, and that is not the best situation for you.

Good sources of honest objective information about choosing a physician are available at the following sources:

SALT LAKE CITY (PRWEB) November 6, 2008

“In the cosmetic market, typically a product will have a surge in sales when introduced, but will then quickly taper off as consumers continually seek the ‘next big thing,’” says Gina Daines, director of marketing for Klein-Becker USA, maker of StriVectin-SD. “StriVectin is different. Word-of-mouth has made it more and more popular the longer it’s on the market. Copycats and knock-offs haven’t seemed to hurt its reputation; if anything, they have driven more people toward the real thing. There’s only one explanation for this extraordinary and steady sales growth: people really love this product. It’s become a staple in the skin-care regimen of millions of women—and men—around the globe. As we like to say, if you have skin, you need StriVectin.”

How important is word of mouth to StriVectin’s success? Let’s put it this way: StriVectin was the first “niche brand” to be literally forced into national distribution in high-end department stores simply by word of mouth. In other words, so many people called stores like Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdale’s and Saks Fifth Avenue that they were forced to carry it on their shelves. This opened up the prestige cosmetic market in ways no one ever dreamed possible.

But StriVectin is more than just a really good skin cream with strong word of mouth… it was the first topical cream to popularize the “peptide revolution” that still holds true today.

“Now, virtually every new skin cream contains some kind of peptide,” says Nathalie Chevreau, PhD, director of scientific affairs for Klein-Becker. “But when it was introduced, the remarkable, patented polypeptide-based StriVectin formula really revolutionized the market as people saw that it did more than just moisturize the skin… it actually transforms the way the skin looks.”

Sales enjoyed a healthy spike in 2006 when France’s leading consumer magazine (60 Millions de Consommateurs) named StriVectin as the best, most effective anti-wrinkle face cream, as judged by a panel of 264 French women… beating the likes of Dior, Chanel, ROC, L’Oréal, Lancôme and other high-end (and French made) products costing as much as €142 (about $ 185) per ounce. Furthermore, in 2007 StriVectin won top honors at the 17th annual “Les Grands Prix Advantages de la Beauté” (Advantage’s Grand Prix of Beauty) in Paris, competing against French cosmetic giants the likes of Lancôme, ReVive, La Mer, Yves Rocher and many others.

“The fact that an American cream from a relatively unknown company won top honors in Paris—twice—was a huge ego boost for us,” says Ms. Daines. “We knew we had something special, but to win the hearts of the French, who are known worldwide for their discerning tastes in cosmetics and beauty products, was certainly a fantastic accomplishment.”

Capitalizing on StriVectin’s runaway success, Klein-Becker developed a comprehensive line of specialized StriVectin formulations, including an eye cream, neck cream, hand cream, deep wrinkle serum, and instant wrinkle filler, to name but a few. However, the top-seller is still the original StriVectin-SD “stretch-mark cream turned anti-wrinkle phenomenon.”

“People love the entire line, and probably our next most popular product is the Hydro-Thermal Deep Wrinkle Serum,” says Ms. Daines. “But the original StriVectin cream still outsells it by about two to one. I don’t think any other StriVectin product will ever outsell the original. People just like it too much.”

Dr. Chevreau sums it up: “People have told us that StriVectin is the one skin cream they would want on a desert island. It’s good for the entire body. Acne scars, burn scars, stretch marks, fine lines, wrinkles, crows’ feet, dark under-eye circles, sagging skin anywhere on the body… StriVectin is truly the long-sought-after ‘miracle cream.’”

So happy 5th birthday, StriVectin! Here’s to many more.

The Absolute Truth About The Best Anti-Aging Skin Care Products

Anti-Aging Supplements

Aging is an undeniable part of life. The growth and development of the human body begins and ends with life and death. In between those two points our bodies go through tremendous spurts of growth and then the decline of development. Anti-aging supplements are the almighty answer to the basic question asked by many; “What can I do about aging?” By using anti-aging products, you will not be able to halt or reverse the effects of aging, but will be able to slow it down and age gracefully. Anti-aging supplements will help you find the energy, vitality, vigor and libido you had when you were younger, and also help you regain the youthful feelings and appearance you once had.

As we age, we face many new and challenging obstacles. With women it typically starts with menopause and with men it begins with andropause, the male version of menopause.

Most anti aging supplements can help with such problems such as:

Obesity
Weakened Immune System
Non-Existent Libido
Dry Skin
High Stress
Lackluster Memory
Trouble focusing
Elevated Cholesterol
Decreased Energy Levels
Lean Muscle Loss
Low Testosterone Levels

These are just some of the issues we hear from people on a daily basis at superhealthcenter.com. We always tell our customers that there is hope, and you can find it with the help of anti-aging supplements.

Some of the most common issues faced with aging are the physical ones. For instance, your skin ages if not as fast, but in some cases faster than you do! With many damaging effects in our environment, the skin is susceptible to many harmful agents, mostly free radicals that cause your skin to be prone to damage and age faster than normal. Most damage can be reversed and also prevented with the help of skin care products. When most people think about reversing the effects of aging, skin care, and skin care products, they think about expensive and painful solutions. Think again people. Anti-aging skin care goods can be inexpensive, harmless and very effective. Skin care products are quickly becoming very popular and part of many peoples lives, take for instance Dermafine-MD, this all-natural skin care do-it-all crème has risen to the top of superhealthcenter.com best skin care products. Dermafine-MD is great for reducing the appearance of stretch marks, wrinkles and age spots. With many other benefits including the ability to help tighten and firm skin, why wouldn’t you consider using Dermafine-MD. Alongside that crème, there are many other affordable products available for specific uses such as reducing dark under eye circles, minimizing fine lines and wrinkles, and rehydrating and revitalizing the youth and appearance of your skin. So forget botox, plastic surgery and other expensive and painful procedures and turn to the anti-aging page on SuperHealthCenter for all of your anti-aging skin care needs.

One of the other most common physical aging issue we hear about is how people want to feel, act, and play and relive how they felt when they were younger. We cannot offer our customers with access to a time machine to blast them back into their past, but we can offer them supplements such as DHEA, hgh or Human Growth Hormone, antioxidant aids and many other health products meant to help anti-aging issues. Take for instance, growth hormone by Schwartz Labs. As you begin to grow older, your natural development of HGH starts to slow down and then completely halt all production. By taking an all-natural human growth hormone product, not an expensive prescription, you can help ease some of the symptoms of aging and feel younger and more youthful. Antioxidant supplements, such as Complete Antioxidant by Nature’s Science, are great for helping alleviate, heal, reduce and prevent the effects of free radicals that can cause a lot of harm to your body, especially your skin. DHEA by Sci-Fit is a fantastic steroidal hormone supplement for men that helps counteract the stress hormone cortisol, helps boost sex drive, enhance moods and energy levels, as well as improve the immune system, help with weight loss and increase lean body mass.

Anti-aging solutions come in many forms, and serve many different purposes. Ask yourself what exactly you’re looking for and what issues you’d like addressed, then go from there. Always remember that aging does not have to be stress filled for you. Unfortunately, we cannot turn back our clocks, but you can surly help slow them down with the use of various anti-aging supplements. Growing old doesn’t have to be such a burden, embrace it recreate the good old days every day.

Anti-Aging For Age Over 30s
The wound healing process and cell renewal activity start to decelerate. Skin’s ability to retain moisture decreases, especially around the eye skin areas. Fine lines and wrinkles appear as “pseudo wrinkles”. This is the signal that aging will official kick off and immediate remedies to the skin are required.

Try to focus on:

Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize
Help cell renewal
Improve radiance
Protect against free radicals
Prevent sun-damage

What to do:

1. Clean, don’t strip – Dermatologists suggest that a pH 5.5 face wash helps gently cleanse the skin without irritating the eyes. It also helps preserve the natural and protective acid mantle of your skin. Products recommended: Cetaphil Skin Cleanser, Johnson’s Cleansing Lotion

2. Enhance moisture – Moisturizer smoothes fine lines and replenishes skin tone and texture. A good moisturizer should contain at least one of the moisturizing agents: Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide, Vitamin B5 or Evening Primrose Oil. Products recommended: SkinCeuticals B5 Gel, Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Plump Perfect Ultra Lift and Firm Moisture Cream, Atopalm MLE Cream

3. Emphasis on the eye skin area – Anti-wrinkle eye cream is a type of wrinkle cream especially made to treat fines and wrinkles around the eyes. Look for a product with Retinol, Growth Factors, Peptides or Caffeine. Products recommended: Kinerase Eye Cream, Dr. Brandt Lineless Eye Cream, Perfective Ceuticals Anti-imperfection Eye Therapy Cream with Growth Factor

Anti-Aging For Age Over 40s
Expression lines, forehead wrinkles, smile lines, fine lines and other facial wrinkles all come into play. Age spots and discoloration are also very common because skin’s self healing ability from sun exposure and environmental damage decreases.

Try to focus on:

Keep skin moisturized
Prevent and reduce wrinkles
Even skin tone or dull complexion
Lighten age spots and discoloration
Prevent sun-damage and environmental damage

What to do:

1. Anti-wrinkle ingredients can be divided into 3 groups according to their anti-wrinkle effects, where Group A contains strong irritant acid and belongs to prescription drugs, Group B is suitable for normal, combination, dry or oily skin, and Group C is best for sensitive skin.

Group A: Tretinoin (Retin A), Glycolic Acid

Group B: L-Ascorbic Acid, Q 10, Growth Factors, Peptides, Idebenone, Kinetin

Group C: Vitamin E, Algae Extract, Tea Extract

Choosing the products with anti-wrinkle ingredients that fit your skin type is half way of success. Spending more money on your anti-wrinkle products does not affect the status of your skin. What you use does. Products recommended: Perfective Ceuticals Divine Age Guardian Cream with Growth Factor, Afirm 3X by TxSystems, Kinerase Pro Therapy C8 Peptide Intensive Treatment

2. Dermatologists suggest that the higher concentration of the skin lightening ingredients the more effective. If your age spots are new, looking for a skin brightener with Bearberry (Arbutin) or Coffeeberry Extract.

Products recommended: IS Clinical Hyperpigmentation Kit, DDF Intensive Holistic Lightener

The increase in Collagen breakdown will cause your skin become dryer, thinner and more sensitive. Deep wrinkles, sagging skin, drooping eye lids and thinning lips become pronounced.

Try to focus on:

Keep skin moisturized
Prevent and reduce wrinkles
Prevent and lighten age spots
Improve firmness and elasticity
Prevent sun-damage and environmental damage

What to do:

1. Topical application to increase levels of the Progesterone and Estrogen Hormones can produce anti-aging effects for women near or after menopause. Natural Progesterone and Estrogen supplements can be found in drug stores. Consult your doctor for the best options for both of your skin and health.

2. Expression lines and smile lines are not easy to eliminate by topical application of anti-wrinkle products. The good news is expression lines tend to respond well to the injections of Botox. Getting a Botox can dramatically improve horizontal forehead wrinkles, scowl lines between eyebrows and crow’s feet wrinkles.

3. You may also consider a surgical lift, lasers, dermal fillers, or chemical peels performed by medical professionals to improve the overall appearance. However, there are certain complications and ricks inherent. For this reason, it is important to choose a qualified and experienced medical professional for such procedures.

A Scientific Breakthrough in Anti-Aging Therapy DPL Light

Fretting about those bothersome pimples and blemishes? The LED lights used in the DPL Therapy System aid in fighting bacteria and increasing blood circulation, which in turn helps in the healing process.  Some customers even testify that DPL Therapy helps to diminish scars!

You may have heard of DPL Therapy, which uses red and infrared LEDs for skin care, but want to know more about its effectiveness, safety, and reliability.  We understand your concerns and would like to demonstrate how the DPL Therapy System can be used to give you the skin tone, texture, and appearance you’ve always wanted.   Let us show you more about the wonders of this revolutionary treatment.

DPL Therapy is safe for all skin types. The number of treatments needed may vary depending on your individual situation.

DPL Therapy can be use to address these and many other skin conditions:

-          Sun damage

-          Skin degeneration due to smoking

-          Fine lines and wrinkles

-          Crow’s feet

-          Blemishes

-          Age Spots

The creators of the DPL Therapy System pride themselves in being able to offer an affordable, pain-free approach to obtaining beautiful skin. Unlike lasers or other harmful skin treatments, DPL Therapy is non-thermal, non-ablative, and non-invasive.  It penetrates deep into the skin to stimulate fibroblasts for the purpose of creating collagen and elastic. These wavelengths provide safe, healthy treatments.

The main property of the infrared waves is that they circumnavigate the epidermis and are then absorbed throughout the dermis, causing dermal heating. This, combined with infrared waves has both instantanious and long-term effects. The immediate effect is thermal-induced collagen contraction, which may cause mild and possibly short-term skin tightening and wrinkle reduction. More importantly, the long lasting effect is skin rejuvenation, which takes place for up to six month after the initial heating. This may lead to a longer-term improvement in wrinkles and some skin tightening. On average, wrinkle improvements are moderate: small and medium wrinkles and acne scars (especially pitted ones) often noticeably improve. Deep wrinkles, especially those due to long term facial movements, are less likely to get much better.

DPL Therapy has the added benefit of being complimentary to other skin care treatments such as Nuface microcurrent toner.  Nuface tones and tightens your facial muscles while the DPL Therapy System provides a host of wonderful rewards to your skin including lessening pore size, increasing circulation, reducing redness, and smoothing skin texture.  Using DPL Therapy in conjunction with Nuface micro current toner can help you to maintain a healthy, vibrant, and youthful appearance.
