Explanation of Treatments Offered

Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT)

Anti Aging Facials are more powerful than a traditional facial, but what if you want something stronger? What if you want dramatic visible results but are not ready to make the financial and downtime investment of surgery? Then look no further than Collagen Induction Therapy. CIT is a rejuvenating treatment for the skin which effectively treats a number of skincare concerns.

Unlike peels and laser resurfacing, CIT does not thin the epidermis. This amazing treatment actually results in smoother, thicker, tighter, brighter, more even toned skin.

How Exactly Does It Work?

By the time we are 35 we will have lost half the collagen (the 'scaffolding' of the skin) in our skin and elastin (which gives our skin its elasticity), and quite simply CIT stimulates collagen and elastin production.

Instant Plumping That's Locked into the Skin

Natural serums are applied pre and post treatment, allowing the products to penetrate deeper into the skin than they normally would. This will significantly aid the success of the treatment as the skin's ability to soak up nutrients increases by a whopping 3000% for an hour after the treatment!  Due to this rapid delivery system, use of any other products, including make-up, cleansers or other chemical preparations are discouraged for the first 12 hours.

More Treatments = Better Results

Skin cells turn over every 21 to 28 days so the full results of the treatment can take up to one month to fully show. For optimum results, it is recommended to have a minimum of four to six treatments (depending on skin condition), spaced out at least 4 weeks apart.  More treatments may be necessary for more significant results.

Although it is still beneficial to have one treatment, and it will still give results, the results will not be nearly as significant, or as good, as having a series of treatments in the recommended time frame.

The three stages of skin remodeling are:

1. Inflammation – This begins directly after the treatment; the skin is may be pink or red
2. Inflammatory response – Growth factors stimulate healthy tissue formation
3. Tissue formation – The actual remodeling of healthy skin continues for up to 1 year

We didn't age overnight…so why should we anti-age overnight?

Our expectations of treatments these days are very high. We want instant hits, quick fixes and immediate results.

We want considerably younger looking skin without paying thousands for a face lift…and we want the results NOW! We don't take into consideration the fact that it has taken a lifetime of environmental exposure, bad lifestyle and diet choices, lack of exercise and bodily imbalance for our skin to reach its current state.

The Treatment That Keeps on Giving!

Due to the stimulation of collagen, CIT is the treatment that keeps on working and giving us results over time, so our skin gets better and better.

Collagen Induction Therapy is definitely the most results oriented, holistic treatment of its kind.

Key Benefits of CIT Include:

• Natural results, not fake or plastic looking
• Skin becomes thicker, as collagen and elastin increase
• Safe for skin of all types and colors
• More effective and less expensive than laser treatments
• Quick healing period
• Can be done on any part of the body
• No foreign substances are injected

CIT is Perfect for:

• Acne Scars
• Fine Lines, Wrinkles
• Melasma, Sun Spots, Age Spots
• Lax Skin
• Stretch Marks
• Large Pores

Contraindications

Do not get CIT if you have had Botox injections within 14 days or injectable fillers within 30 days. 

Smoking Delays Skin Repair

It is a good idea to stop smoking prior to and following aesthetic skin treatments, such as CIT, in order to help the skin repair and for you to see maximum benefits to the treatment.

Smoking inhibits circulation, it lowers levels of oxygen in the blood which can cause failure or delayed healing of the skin, bone and other soft tissue. Smoking also increases the risk of wound site infections.

Dr. Hans Nasell, MD and Senior Surgical Consultant at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm says "In elective surgery [and invasive treatments] smoking cessation can become part of a plan [to] reduce risks during and after [treatment]. It was surprising, and encouraging, to see that even stopping smoking following surgery can offer significant benefits, including a nearly 50 per cent reduction in wound complications."

As we should all be aware smoking increases the premature aging of our skin, causing wrinkles, discoloration, lines, crêpeyness and sagging.

Skin rejuvenation treatments, like CIT, are much more likely to be effective in non-smokers.

The below "Before and After" photos are of actual clients after a series of CIT treatments.  Notice the reduction in acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, sagging, age spots, sun spots, and general pigmentation.

Diamond Tip Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion, also known as 'microderm', is a safe, non-chemical, non-invasive procedure and one of the most effective anti-aging treatments. It is a gentle skin resurfacing treatment that can rejuvenate and restore the natural glow to the skin, without the need for downtime.

The skin is constantly generating new skin cells at the lower layer (deep layer- dermis) and sending them to the surface (topmost layer- epidermis). As the cells rise to the surface they gradually die and become filled with keratin. These keratinized skin cells are essential because they give our skin its protective quality. But they are constantly sloughing off to make way for younger cells.

As we age the process of cell turnover slows down. Cells start to pile up unevenly on the skin's surface, giving it a dry, rough, dull appearance. Exfoliation is beneficial because it removes those cells on the top layer of the skin (stratum corneum) that are clinging on, revealing the fresher, smoother and younger skin cells below. Some of the skin's visible imperfections like fine lines and sun damaged are removed. And now without stratum corneum layer, topical high-tech skin care products can penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and help build collagen, which gives skin its youthful appearance.

Diamond-tip microdermabrasion uses the vacuum technology and hand-held wand. There aren't any crystals moving through the tip. The diamond tip itself exfoliates the skin and the vacuum whisks the dead skin away. There are many different tips with various grades of roughness, and the esthetician chooses the correct one for your skin type and condition. Diamond-tip microdermabrasion is much less uncomfortable and yields superior results. It is considerably better for mature or sensitive skin.

Microdermabrasion is performed with little to no discomfort. At the most, sensitive skin might experience a slight sensation resembling light sunburn. After treatment, the skin has a pink glow, and you can resume your normal activities almost immediately. The procedure can be done during lunch hour.

Microdermabrasion stimulates skin cell turnover
by removing the dead cells from the skin's surface, and also by causing "micro-damage" – or mini-trauma to the skin's surface that is not enough to be visible but sufficiently severe to trigger the arrival
of collagen and "repair cells" to the skin's surface. Because these "repair cells" are newer and younger, they improve the skin's appearance. Also, the removal of surface layers improves the effectiveness of topical anti-aging products by enhancing their ability to penetrate the skin.

How does microdermabrasion help acne and beneath-the-surface bumps?

Acne, blackheads and whiteheads result from sebaceous materials – or oil – clogging the pores, sometimes rupturing under the surface. By peeling away surface layers of the skin, microdermabrasion can remove the material trapped in many of the pores, further; the removal of surface layers improves the effectiveness of topical acne medications by enhancing their ability to penetrate the skin.

Age and skin condition determine the number of treatments required to achieve optimum result. A typical regimen consists of a series of four to eight treatments done at intervals of two to four weeks. Our skilled estheticians will recommend a program for you.

Contraindications

Do not get microdermabrasion if you have extremely sensitive skin, diabetes, vascular conditions like rosacea, skin inflammation, bacterial infections, lack of tactile sensation, keloid scarring, cuts and abrasions, or have had Botox injections within 72 hours. Other contraindications include sunburn, viral infections like herpes simplex, cystic acne or certain medications.

LED Photo Light Therapy

Approved by the FDA, Light Emitting Diode was developed in the 1980's by NASA to improve the healing of wounds and tissue growth in space. LED Technology uses 100% safe wavelengths of light to stimulate and increase cell turnover, elastin production, increases circulation and increases the production of collagen growth. Collagen helps plump the skin, while elastin firms the skin. The wavelength of visible and invisible light repairs and replenishes damaged skin cells. This all gives the skin back its youthful look.

LED Photo Light Terapy can be used on all areas of the body and on all skin types. The face, neck, décolleté and back of hands are the most popular treatment areas. Each treatment is 20 minutes and can be done every other day.

Red light therapy

Anti-aging light increases blood flow to heal, tighten, regenerate and treat lax skin.

Blue light therapy

Gets to the core of what causes acne eruptions by destroying the acne bacteria. A must for clients who have acneic, problematic skin!

Green light therapy

Decreases dark spots and pigmentation, smoothes fine lines, scars and improves hydration. Extrememely beneficial for inflammation, this light is amazing after micorneedling.  Wonderful for clients with rosacea and sensitive skin.

Most devices for skin rejuvenation typically use visible red light at a wavelength of 660 nm – That penetrates tissue to a depth of about 8 - 10 mm – Making it more beneficial for treating problems close to the surface of the skin such as:

• Age spots and hyper-pigmentation on face, hands, neck and décolleté
• Blemishes and redness
• Tightening and firming (non-surgical face lift alternative)
• Wrinkles and fine lines
• Burns
• Acne Scars
• Rosacea
• Eczema
• Psoriasis

Contraindications

Clients who are on any medications which increase light sensitivity should not be treated with LED photo light therapy.
