Fine Lines & Wrinkles 
| Fine lines and wrinkles are caused by the normal aging process, smoking, sun exposure and a number of other catalysts. As we age, skin loses elasticity and collagen thins, resulting in wrinkles and loose skin. New collagen production and antioxidant protection are essential in reducing skin wrinkling, as is protection from UVA/UVB exposure. Skin care with healing properties and antioxidants should be incorporated into a daily regimen. Products with active growth peptides and micronutrients should be regularly applied to restore skin elasticity and stimulate collagen production. Additionally, you should always rely upon an effective sunscreen. |
Acne Breakouts 
| Breakouts occur when oil deep within small hair follicles or pores becomes waxy and clogs pores. To manage acne, first ensure your skin is clean and well-exfoliated. Second, eliminate bacteria which may inflame and infect pores. Products that effectively eradicate bacteria and exfoliate dead skin cells should be used. Benzoyl Peroxide, a popular ingredient in acne products, is only mildly effective at eradicating bacteria and is irritating in higher concentrations. Topical antibiotics lead to resistant strains of bacteria. Thus, antimicrobial cleansers that kill on contact are a preferred option. |
Hyperpigmentation (Brown Spots)
| Hyperpigmentation, commonly experienced as brown spots, is caused by UV light exposure which stimulates the melanin pigment production and forms brown spots. While there is no known cause, heredity appears to play a significant role. Other triggers include sun exposure, skin irritation, pregnancy, and certain medications, including birth control pills and hormone therapy. Once brown spots have appeared, avoiding triggers such as sun exposure and treating the skin with skin lighteners combined with accelerated exfoliation is effective. |
Rosacea 
| Rosacea (Acne Rosacea) is a condition characterized by red flushing, inflammation, small pimple breakouts, and in more severe cases a bulbous nose with thickened, oily skin. All cases are associated with early and persistent flushing in the face. Avoidance of triggers such as caffeine, sun exposure, alcohol and hot/spicy foods minimizes flushing and breakouts. Additionally, products with soothing properties will help to soothe irritated skin. |
Dark Under-Eye Circles
| The skin under the eye is delicate with few oil glands. It is thin and somewhat translucent, revealing capillaries beneath the surface which generate the appearance of dark circles. Factors such as heredity, illness, allergies, fatigue and aging contribute to their severity. As we age, dark circles become more apparent as collagen in the skin breaks down, resulting in thinner skin. While there is no nonsurgical, permanent solution, the appearance of dark circles can be managed by getting plenty of sleep, avoiding cigarettes, reducing alcohol and caffeine consumption, and taking special care of under-eye skin. Light, non-oily moisturizers that contain growth peptides (soluble keratin peptides) will effectively stimulate collagen production to restore skin thickness and elasticity. |
Puffy Eyes
| Puffy, swollen eyes may be triggered by a number of factors. Fluid retention, lack of sleep, allergies, sleeping flat on your back (without pillow elevation), and even heredity affect the degree of puffiness throughout life. As we age, eyes tend to appear puffier as skin around the eye begins to sag due to skin laxity and weakening tissue. Reducing salt intake, getting plenty of rest, drinking water and avoiding allergens can help manage puffiness. To care for the skin under the eye, use a moisturizing crème that will hydrate without clogging pores and will stimulate collagen production with growth peptides (soluble keratin peptides) to strengthen skin tissue. |
