Saving Face

If you know me.... I'm a skin junkie. I love skin care. Actually back in the day I remember getting in trouble for not returning some dermatology books to my elementary library. I mean really what were they doing with dermatology books anyway? I still recall watching my grandmother in her nighttime routine of applying all the lotions and potions and at 5 years old there I was with my Noxema mask on.

I've had such a hard time abandoning all my real deal skin care but pregnancy and nursing of course came first and it's amazing how much stuff you can't do. But I found an old friend I can still use!

IPL or photo facial rejuvenation is the best!! I recently went to get my skin scanned to view all the sun damage from my old tanning bed days and I was pleasantly surprised with my results. My skin was evaluated for spots, wrinkles, texture, pores, brown spots, red areas and bacteria using VISIA. What an experience. A close up snapshot of my skin revealed that I actually don't have issues with wrinkles... yay for anti aging creams but I did have a few dark spots from sun damage.

I opted to do the photo facial rejuvenation. I've done this before so I wasn't too worried about it but I had forgotten how great the results could be. Any mini spots are almost all gone and it helps build up your collagen too. So next time you're looking for a spa treatment with a kick (and I do mean a little kick) try it out!
