Skin Restoration After Summer Fun Is Crucial For A Healthier You!
A
s outdoor summer fun activities wind down and the kids are back to school, it’s time to take stock of facial skin damage that has inevitably occurred. Partner with the area’s premier spot for all spa services and aesthetic needs, Ooh La La Spa, Anti-Aging and Wellness, to find the most effective treatment plan. “While your skin should be cared for at all times of the year, it is a good idea to have a thorough examination in early fall to access what should be done to restore glowing, healthy skin,” said Dr. Kristen Jacobs, owner and medical director of Ooh La La, and nationally known Aesthetic Medicine Specialist. Here are a few of Dr. Jacobs favorites to tighten, lighten and even skin tone: Limelight is a non-invasive, skin rejuvenating treatment offering improved skin tone, reduced skin redness and reduction in brown spots on the skin associated with sun damage and skin aging. It is ideal for the face, neck and décolleté (chest), arms and hands. This laser treatment can be customized to a specific skin type and current skin condition. Immediately following treatment, brown spots on the skin will darken and skin may appear slightly red or pink. This usually lasts for a few hours and, in some cases, may take up to two days to fully return to normal. Treatments are quick and can be done over a single lunch hour! Microneedling The Eclipse MicroPen creates tiny, painless punctures in the skin that trigger the body’s natural healing process. In response to these superficial wounds, the body increases the production of collagen, the building block of healthy skin. Cell turnover following a collagen induction therapy procedure produces younger skin free from dark spots and discoloration. Chemical Peels are a great way to refresh the skin and improve skin’s tone and texture. Chemical peels gently exfoliate the skin helping with superficial lines on the face, shallow scarring and improving the appearance of pigmentation on the
skin. It is a great way to achieve a fresh, healthy glow. Some redness or pinkness may occur, but usually goes away within a few hours after treatment. Secret RF: The latest wrinkle revolution on the market, Secret RF is an enhanced microneedling treatment only available in physician's offices; it delivers fractional radio frequency (RF) energy into the body. RF energy creates controlled damage in the skin, causing the body to respond by healing itself through the rebuilding of natural collagen levels. This skin revitalization treatment requires little to no downtime and delivers beautiful results which include skin tightening, improvement of fine lines and wrinkles, and textural improvements of not only the eye area, but of the entire face, neck, chest and body. HydraFacial can improve a number of common skin concerns including age spots and hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, dull dry and dehydrated skin, oily, congested skin and acne. There is absolutely no downtime with this treatment and you leave the spa feeling hydrated and refreshed. “The goal is to develop relationships with our patients to become a partner in their appearance - we treat every one like our family,” Dr. Jacobs said, “so they can put their best face forward.”
