cold wind, freezing temps wreak havoc on your skin

Cold winds and dry warm indoor air affect your skin making it very susceptible to the environment and since we can't always go to Florida on a whim here are some tips to help salvage your skin this winter:
-always use sunscreen, even if it is not sunny outdoors the sun reflects off of the snow and will damage your skin
-help with dry skin by taking a warm not hot shower and using a humidifier
-use a great moisturizer such as Clinical Care drench moisturizer, also Clinical Care moisture seal which will lock in moisture but will allow your skin to breathe.

Because the skin has greater difficulties shedding in the colder months a chemical peel will help shed dead dry skin and help your moisturizer penetrate more deeply.

What are chemical peels and what do they do?

Chemical peels offer a dramatic lift to the appearance without surgury or drastic methods.  They are fast, effective and offer immediate results.  Peels help acheive smooth skin, reduce/eliminate fine lines, wrinkles, acne scarring, uneven pigmentation, and increase collagen. 

What Exactly are Chemical Peels?

The peels used at HairTrix are made up of Alphahydroxy acids particularly glycolic acid to removed the damaged outer layer of skin.

What do they feel like?
 Some havve the misconception chemical peels are extremly painful and leave the skin red and peeling.  Although slight rosiness is expected immediately after treatment this will only last a short time, and for most people no peeling will occur.  Peels often feel tingly when applied to the skin but are only left on for a tolerable 1-5 minutes.  When the peel is neutralized immediately after any minor discomfort is relieved. 

What to avoid?

It is recommended that a client go for one hour after a peel without makeup to further the benefits of the peel.  Staying out of the sun for 24-48 hours is strongly recommended, as well as use of a sunscreen of SPF 30.  Any other exfoliation included the use of retinoids and mechanical exfoliants (face scrubs) should be avoided for 24-48 hours before and after treatment. 

Chemical Peels are one of the most effective ways to dramatically change your skin as well as improve it.  -call 643-9680 to book your appointment or to book a free consulation!
