Diamond Tome microdermabrasion is a crystal free microderm that gently exfoliates the dead skin surfacing on the epidermis. You will visibly notice the appearance of your skins texture, pores and the smoothness of your skin with just one treatment. It is one of the best anti aging treatments anyone can do for their skin.

How well do you know your mineral makeup? We have a test to see if what is going on your face is natural or not. Add a small amount of your minerals into a glass of water that is ½ full. The water is going to represent your skin. If you are using real mineral makeup, you will notice that the powder will rise to the top. If you are not using real minerals, the makeup will mix in with the water or sink to the bottom. If this happens, your makeup is most likely penetrating the skin causing clogged pores which can cause damage to the skin.
Here at Skin Essentials we have invested in the finest mineral makeup by La Bella Donna. This particular line is perfect for your everyday wear, but can also be used on your skin after certain laser procedures as well as other treatments. Talk to your Skin Essentials provider about the La Bella Donna products to see if they will work for you.

Invest in Maintenance Packages: Many of the skin rejuvenation options that are offered today assist in the skin’s ability to revitalize itself. Maintenance is required to keep the aging process from speeding up, so that you look effortlessly youthful as you mature.

When weighing your options of single treatments and packages always look at…
• How much are you saving in the long run and is it worth spending the money up front?
• Are you going to commit to the recommended schedule? If you are not committed you may find yourself spending unnecessarily. Try making all of your appointments when you purchase the package. This will help you keep your agenda in front of you.
• Are you looking for true correction and healthier skin? Full correction and restoration will come with your commitment to maintaining your results. Once you have reached you desired look it is much easier to keep it, so starting early with preventative treatments will keep you from having to start from scratch!
For more information on maintenance options including skin care, Botox, Facial Fillers, and Laser information please contact our office.

Why is this, when there are so many ways to prevent the disease?
Education is going to be the number one way to keep yourself safe from the sun’s harmful rays. Follow these simple steps to healthier skin and a longer lasting life!
-
ALWAYS apply
sun screen and lip balm with at least a 15 SPF for everyday wear, even on cloudy days. On the days that you’re spending more time outside make sure your sunscreen is at least a 30 SPF. Re-apply every few hours so that you are fully protected.
-
Choose sunglasses that are stylish and protect from UVA and UVB rays
-
Try to avoid spending long periods of time in direct sun between 10am and 4pm. This is when the sun is at its highest point, making your skin more susceptible to damage.
-
Bring out your summer wardrobe! Stay out of darker colors as they attract the sun.
-
Try a hat! Keep your face, neck, and chest covered while in direct view of the sun.

Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, results from over-stimulation of the sweat glands by the nervous system. Most commonly the sweating is restricted to the palms of the hands, underarms, or the soles of the feet, and is referred to as “focal hyperhidrosis”.
Consequences of this frustrating problem can be medical as well as social in that maceration of the skin may lead to skin infections.
Treatments have included oral medications, topical anti-perspirants, electrical current stimulation, and even surgery to cut the nerves to the sweat glands. These options all have met with differing success rates, may be associated with side-effects and time inconveniences, and now are supplemented by the option of BOTOX injections which are preferable to many sufferers.
Most people are only familiar with BOTOX Cosmetic, used to treat the overactive facial expression muscles. The treatment for Hyperhydrosis works in the same way in that BOTOX blocks the chemical signal, in this case, activating the sweat gland.
BOTOX for focal hyperhidrosis in the hands, underarms, and feet is safe, effective and convenient. For some sufferers, having their “business handshake” hand treated is a boon in the workplace. One treatment can stop 90% of the sweat production within a week, and only one treatment a year affords great advantages over many of the other option to tackle this troublesome condition.
If you are interesdted in learning more about Botox for hyperhydrosis, please contact our office today!

Non-Surgical Face Lift: In these tough economic times the cost of surgery can be overwhelming. The non-surgical face lift is a great option to keep you appearance refreshed and natural. With a combination of dermal fillers, Botox, and laser resurfacing treatments, your skin will regain the structure and support that decreases with age. With this advanced technique your Skin Essentials provider can reduce bags and hollows under the eyes, raise cheekbones, enhance the fullness in lips, and increase volume overall. This procedure has little or no down time, looks natural, and does not leave scars. Many of these treatments promote the production of collagen which can make your results last longer. Aging hands can also be treated with Juvederm, Perlane, and Restylane to make them look younger as well.
If you are in the Denver, Highlands Ranch, or Littleton area please visit our Skin Essentials office for more information.
