Should You Get a Tattoo?

Article Image Getting a Tattoo is a very personal decision that will require some thoughtfulness on your part.  This is because removing your ex’s name, that faddy Celtic thing or your imitation jailbird tattoo can get really expensive when you get older and decide that you can’t stand the look of it anymore. In fact currently, the last generation of punks, Goths, witchlets and tribal types account for a lot of surgical and laser tattoo removal and is a steadily growing business.

How Dermabrasion Works

Article Image One of the treatments that is growing really popular is Microdermabrasion, a procedure that removes the topmost layer of the skin, getting rid of the dead skin cells on the surface and bringing back its healthy glow. 

It also leaves a smoother surface and even stimulates the growth of new calls as well as the production of collagen and elastin, which both plays a role in the development of wrinkles.

How to Choose a Dermatologist

Article Image

Not all dermatologists are created equal. They vary in terms of their competence and expertise. Also some dermatologists have specialties. Like all other types of medical experts they also vary in terms of price and in terms of their personalities. If you want a dermatologist that is affordable and has a good bedside manner than you might want to do a little searching around and interviewing before you settle on one to treat your skin problems.

Acne Scarring

What Causes Acne Scarring?

Acne scarring does not have to occur if you are careful not to pick at the area or to infect it in anyway. Although big pustules can leave marks most people get acne scarring as the result of doing things to their skin that they think can make it better. Instead they end up making the problem worse. You don’t have to have a big acne sore on your face to get a scar. Even if you pick at the tiniest of eruptions you can still end up with pockmarks or discoloured skin.

Remedies for Brown Spots

Article Image Brown spots are also known as age spots, sun spots or liver spots. Perhaps the most correct name for them is sun spots as they are caused by hyperpigmentation caused by overexposure to the sun. Usually they are brown spots but they can also be beige or caramel colored like freckles. It is also true that they are more common in people as they get older. The spots were originally thought to be toxins from an old liver that could not process them which is how they got to be called liver spots.

Wrinkle Reduction Creams

Article Image

The biggest new development in wrinkle reduction creams of this decade so far has been a wrinkle cream manufactured by Botox, the company that makes paralytic substance that is injected into the face to reduce wrinkles. The cream, marketed as Prevage, contains a powerful antioxidant called idebenone, which is supposed to protect against harmful contaminants such as air pollution and cigarette smoke. Last a more affordable similar treatment called Dream Cream that also contains idebenone was developed. Dermaglow also makes a cheaper product containing this substance. All of these wrinkle reduction creams   promise the softening of fine lines within three months.  As these products are new the jury is still out regarding whether or not they actually reverse aging.

Almost everyone on earth has a scar or stretchmark somewhere. Scars form as part of the skin’s healing process whenever multiple layers of skin are injured. The injury may be the result of an accident, surgery, a burn or even severe acne. Stretchmarks form when the skin is pulled to the extent that it loses its tissue elasticity.
